Leroy Jenkins-solo concert (india navigation lp 1028) 1977
Here's the great Leroy Jenkins solo concert from 1977, again courtesy of Iain.
who says 'this is a very beautiful concert..I'm happy to be able to share it'
Jenkins here weaves a dense tissue of free improvisation interpolated with rustic folk forms,quotes from hymns and the blues.. cascading ripples of plangent scrapping creaky euphoria.
it features a very simple, lyrical rendition of Billy Strayhorn's lush life..one of the best
an awe inspiring concert from the late under recorded and appreciated master, long overdue for a carefully remastered reissue.
enjoy!!
recorded at Washington square church N.Y.C, on January 11 1977

Wonderful. And another step forward in completing the India Navigation set. I've never heard this one before, so I'm looking forward to it.
Hi sotise - many thanks for this and the other recent posts.
Cheers, T

Merci sotise, and a tip of the hat to lain.
Beautiful.
thanks a lot for this !!
Thanks a lot for this .. Leroy plays a lyrical set in which the the relationships between the pieces is intriguing.
Thanks so much (and for the flac links). This makes today a happy holiday.
Mr Sotise, thank you, thank you, thank you. Also, isn't this one of the loveliest record sleeves ever?
Excellent initiative! I actually attended this concert and remember it clearly. Braxton and Holland were in the audience, and afterwards Braxton went backstage and could be heard saying loudly, "Jenkins, thank you for your beautiful music!"
Great to get hold of this. Thank you.

Thanks for this one and for the invitation to chat with Jenny$$$(19), courtesy of Zippyshare or affiliates ...
c'mon K - Jenny's a lovely girl once you get to know her - she's studying political science, honours year.
She just lets herself be pimped out by the Zippyshare guys when the week's grocery bills get too tough to make
I see a potential for Freudian slips ...
I had this on vinyl once too.. is this post going to work? (total newb but in awe of the material here ... btw, got any Material?)..
Love this site. Can anyone please repost this great album? Thank you

Wonderful listening. Will India Navigation recordings revert try sn official re-release?
I meant is there a possibility that the India Navigation catalog will ever be officially released?
The question would be to whom the tapes / rights belong. And furthermore who's willing to spent money on it. The Sanders was reissued last year in an expanded edition.
Some titles were reissued long ago on CD. But I would certainly buy me some more. Especially a reissue of the two Arthur Blythe LPs on CD would be welcome. The 1991 CD edition which compiles the two previous LPs is rather pricy on the second hand market. Also Hamiet Bliuett's 'Endangered Species' would be appreciated - ... dreaming ....
Thanks, serviceton - I was just listening to Jenkins' solo album (lovely music). Apparently missed this one when it first popped up here. hideo
I think it might take a complete dedicated enthusiast to reissue the India Navigation catalogue because I don't think there's likely any money in it. I don't mean profit - I mean even breaking even.
Bob Cummins has been dead for about a quarter of a century (very strange, typing that!) and I'm not sure about his daughter Beth and the legal status of it all. I have heard a couple of times that 'legal rights have reverted to the artists for the label' - but this would be time consuming and expensive to actually make happen [returning master tapes, documentation, legal documentation and so on].
Cummins *was* a lawyer, so maybe anything is possible? But I have doubts..
The Pharoah India Nav reissue came out on Luaka Bop [erstwhile known as David Byrne's 'world music' label from the 90's] - and almost certainly has got nothing to do with a India Navigation reissue program, or the possibility of one, far as I know.
I wonder if there's anything about this stuff in the liner notes for that set. I admired the packaging and attention to detail of it, but didnt buy it as the music didn't appeal
Thank you
