thanks to mr lucky for initially bringing this to my attention.(mr lucky posts at both cineville and border music,as well as here hopefully,if you leave him a comment.

sunny murray/ khan jamal-change of the century 1987 re up


















here at last
re up of master modern percussionist sunny murray.
ive always suspected this cd was unauthorized to begin with. its co credited to khan jamal and 'romulus' who is listed as conductor.anyone have any info on romulus? perhaps its butch morris who seemed to be ubiquitous ,at that stage in his career.
PLEASE BUY ANY SUNNY MURRAY CD'S YOU CAN FIND.THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT RICH
THEY ARE BARELY MAKING A LIVING.
besides which theres no free medical treatment in the US so if youre on welfare,(foodstamps,rental assistance) and you fall seriously ill unless others can offer assistance, basically youre well and truly S.C.R.E.W.E.D.

marion brown,a unique and true original.

















hi all

the great marion brown has always been one of my very favourite jazz musicians.

a true original with a unique tone, please BUY AS MANY MARION BROWN CDS AS YOU CAN FIND!!! jubalee is one of my personal favourites it follows on from his first esp session which is also very highly recommended,and shares with that release a lot of the personnel and many structural affinities.one thing that distinguishes brown from the run of the mill esp crowd,for me is the notable structural integrity of his compositions ,

they are always interesting and run a huge gamut from modal and completely free , as well as complex highly chromatic bebop /hardbop extensions. JUBALEE' has been criminally unavailable for many many years.i could not even find a decent review.


the personnel is as follows.marion brown, grachan moncur-trb,reggie maupin-tenor,bscl, alan shorter-flug h,trpt dave burrell-pno,reggie johnson-db,beaver harris-dr

google sensors itself for profits in china

Google censors itself for China

Leading internet company Google has said it will censor its search services in China in order to gain greater access to China's fast-growing market.
Google has offered a Chinese-language version of its search engine for years but users have been frustrated by government blocks on the site.
The company is setting up a new site - Google.cn - which it will censor itself to satisfy the authorities in Beijing.
Google argued it would be more damaging to pull out of China altogether.
While removing search results is inconsistent with Google's mission, providing no information... is more inconsistent with our mission
Google statement
Critics warn the new version could restrict access to thousands of sensitive terms and web sites. Such topics are likely to include independence for Taiwan and the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre.
The Chinese government keeps a tight rein on the internet and what users can access. The BBC news site is inaccessible, while a search on Google.cn for the banned Falun Gong spiritual movement directs users to a string of condemnatory articles.
Google's move in China comes less than a week after it resisted efforts by the US Department of Justice to make it disclose data on what people were searching for.
this originaly appeared january last year.
on the bbc online news site

yet here we all are as appraised as we can be of the facts in western so called democracies where media blackouts are an everyday occurance,willingly signing up to jump through the hoops when it requires us to do so.
are we complicit in censorship.
when will google censor us?
