Organic Music Theatre - Television Session Summer 1976

After Magogiallo's generous contributions of rare unreleased live by Don Cherry, here is one more very close to the RAI session with the same personnel and almost same titles.

The music if not so incredible as his early recordings show very well the musical personality of Don Cherry who was interested in the music itself before the style.

It remain me a story that composer and violinist Jean Yves Bosseur told me some years ago. He was invited to play violin by Archie Shepp but he said:
-"I'm not a jazz musician".
Then Shepp answered:
-"we won't play jazz, we will play music".

This might be a good definition for Don Cherry's music.

-Moki: Tampura, percussion, vocals
-Gianpiero Pramaggiore: guitar, flute, vocals
-Nana Vasconcelos: percussions, berimbo, vocals
-Don Cherry: trumpet, dous'n goni, flute, vocals

Naxos Orchestra - Coexist, Live At Polin

The orchestra Naxos is a unique project - by Milo Kurtis, who together with Konstanty Joriadis created a team gathering prominent artists from Syria, Yemen, Greece, Israel and Poland, where musicians settled permanently. Poland is a response to the popular trend in the world of culture and combining musical genres called world music. It combines the culture of the Balkans and the Middle East, the Mediterranean roots of most artists. The originator and founder of Naxos is a tireless seeker of new sounds - Milo Kurtis - Maanam co-founder, member of Ossian, Israel, Voo Voo and other iconic Polish teams. A multi-instrumentalist, playing on all kinds of ethnic instruments from around the world. Greek origin, for which Poland has become a place to stay, the same as America, where he lived a dozen years. It is in fact an advocate of a world without borders. Not only the music.

Naxos orchestra is composed by 9 persons. Artists are dressed in black, white Milo, Arabic galabii.
May 10, 2015 at the Museum of the History of Polish Jews POLIN, took place  a recorded live concert Orchestra. Thanks to the enthusiastic response of the concert audience, atmosphere was exceptional. This is the first album recorded in POLIN Museum.

HUGH HOPPER MONSTER BAND :: French Tour 1974

Shortlived Monster Band was probably first HH's attempt to work with two bass format, what he did most succesfully many years later with Hughscore. The band sounds strong on Paris recording and also on unknown piece from Bordeaux, pairing of Elton Dean and Lol Cohxill works very well. Rest of audience recording from Poitiers I am sharing for posterity only (as it was seeded alltogether on Dime by our freind Propylaen in 2o12), because the amount of backround noise on these is really boring. First 4 recordings went through my mastering with much better result. Also included is single track of Paris FM recording from different source, which has some damage throughout, but is more complete and clean than Propylaen's version.

Ras Moshe -Live Spirit Vol 3 - Utech Records 2006

After my preview post about Walden Wimberley some month ago I have thought to post in the future this session featuring also Wimberley but due to the passing of Joe Rigby in July it is time to post it now. Joe Rigby have played with Milford Graves in the seventies and have one record with Steve Reid (Nova). More recently he have recorded the excellent « For Harriet » for the french label improvising being in 2011 and "Praise" for Homeboy music previously also posted here. Few years before here is this session under the leadership of Ras Moshe.

One track only in a jam session style dedicated to John Coltrane and Tyron Washington.

Gregg Bendian's Interzone - Live In Chicago 2001

Gregg Bendian is famous for his partnership with musicians like Cecil Taylor, Derek Bailey, William Parker or Peter Brotzmann. In the late nineties he had a very exciting band called Interzone that mixed jazz with free improvisation, rock and in a way also prog. The result was an unique sound that appears as one of the most successful in the mix of so different styles. The group has recorded three albums, one for Eremite and two for Atavistic, all oop but still easy to find for a reasonable price in the second hand market. Two musicians have made the trip from the beginning to the end beside Gregg Bendian: The Cline brothers, Nels and Alex. Bassists have changed during the short life of this band. The first cd have been recorded with Mark Dresser, the two others on Atavistic with Steuart Liebig. On this concert that comes from what appeared to be the last tour of the band, Kermit Driscol is the bassist. The show is superbe, intense with a very high musical level. It contains many tracks from their last album Requiem For Jack Kirby recorded around one year before this concert.

MANGELSDORFF - PORTAL QUARTET + MANGELSDORFF SOLO "LIVE IN GENOVA, 1981"

Got this recording from our recent anonymous donor some weeks ago.
Portal is sometimes a bit too much in the 'background'. This might be due to him wandering around on the stage.
In the same folder was the Mangelsdorff solo - so I assume it is from the same date...

DAVE HOLLAND QUARTET & ANTHONY BRAXTON QUARTET "ANTIBES '74 & CHATEAUVALLON '73"

Two excellent concert films. (maybe the two shows aren't complete but surely worth your attention)

The first group is obviously the quartet which recorded the wonderful album "Conference of the Birds" for ECM. The album was recorded on November 30, 1972 in New York. So the concert in France was more than a half year later. Several themes of the LP are easily discernible.
---

For the second ensemble I've found the following description.

Details from Coda 12/73 p.34.
"They played a suite especially written for this occasion. A piece that showed some of the aspects in the music of the multidirectional Anthony Braxton. Wheeler and Braxton matched each other beautifully, Wheeler is a musician who has much in common with Braxton, an intellectual player with a cool sound and a good ear for Braxton's intricate written lines. Their performance ended with a bebop-like tune, and drummer Bobo Shaw (from Black Artists Group from St. Louis, BAG) who throughout the piece had revealed himself as a very musical and inventive drummer, kept the music on fire." (Ib Skovgaard Petersen)

[Some discographies claim other days (23rd f.e.) for the Braxton Quartet but I stick with what's given in the TV production, although the menu gives 1974 which is - obviously - incorrect]

During this concert we have the first performances of Braxton's "Composition No. 23B" and "Composition No. 23D".
