VANESSA MACKNESS and BARRY GUY. 1989

As I recall, after a phenomenal Elton Dean Qt gig at the Duke of Wellington in 1989, Vanessa Mackness and her friend Andree asked if I'd send a copy of my cassette recording.  In return, Andree sent me this recording of Vanessa in duet with Barry Guy.  I hope nobody objects to me posting this music by an incredibly well-matched, fast-listening duo. After making recordings with John Butcher, Derek Bailey and Company, it appears Vanessa left the scene to concentrate on her painting.

BOBBY WATSON'S TAILOR MADE BIG BAND - AFROISMS. GLASGOW 1994

A slightly less than perfect recording off the radio - I just found this cassette which used to get a lot of play in my Walkman at work.  With no info on the cassette, I had to google to try and find some details.  I found a review of the concert which said the music didn't hang together, was under rehearsed and too long.  Well you could have fooled me! Bobby Watson composes some of the most attractive music in jazz and this concert was really fantastic (in my opinion).  Enjoy.

CERCLE "NEW YORK, 1994"

1. unknown title 31:15 (first set?)
2. unknown title 07:48
2. unknown title 02:35
4. unknown title 05:30 (incomplete?)

(audience recording with a Sony tape-recorder than transferred to cd-r via pc/magix)

Recorded probably in 1994 most probably in New York at an unknown location.
Or - as Matt W pointed out - maybe at the Knitting Factory, New York in January 16, 1998.

...I got this recording together with several others from a former costumer who became an acquaintance.
All his tapes had all necessary information included except this one.
As the recording year was 1994 for all tapes (almost always at the Village Vanguard or at the Knitting Factory) I assume the 1994 (Knitting Factory?) is a likely assumption.

M U J I C I A N - Liverpool 1989

Whooooooa!  I thought this tape was a write-off but no - here is an absolute gem from the truly marvellous Mujician that was.  The most musical of free improvising groups - time, no time, exquisite beauty, intensity, incredible interaction - it's all here.  Check out Tippett's flight at about 12 minutes in with bass and drums and wish, like me, that they had worked as a trio too.  Dunmall leaves his tenor in the case and wows on baritone and soprano.  Listening to this has reminded me just how fantastic this group was.  Take thirty seven minutes and have a listen and let me know what you think.

A repost of sorts,years ago , i started sharing this set here in installments, but for some reason , never got around to finishing it..
Mostly because my original rip wasn't up to scratch , the records were dirty and so forth.....

I've had a few Email requests over the years , asking for the un posted volume...
Here they all are together in one huge split archive!
Anyhow its a much more meticulous rip ,Executed using superior equipment, stylus, turntable etc

I dedicate this to our friends here past and present, Nick , Onxi, Andy, Kinabalu .. Riccardo , Boromir and all  who have ever shared here.

Steve Lacy-Raps 1977, Adelphi 5004 LP

A great Steve Lacy Lp that's unlikely to be reissued anytime soon, this one has never achieved the cult status
of much of Lacy's contemporaneous output , not at all obscure or rare it can still be purchased for under 20 bucks..

Recorded in New York , Little Known bassist Ron Miller,(Same Guy who's on Dave Burrell's After Love, presumably)subs for J.J.Avenel,an intriguing player who sounds right at home...
Terrific versions of The Throes, Blinks, and No Baby..

I Know this has been around before as Mp3's... worth a listen!

Frank Lowe-Doctor too Much 1977, PKO2 LP

For Tony Continued ... Frank Lowe really was on a Roll, at this point... every release seemingly more potent than the last , this one has a terrific line up.. .. and Lowe had worked frequently with all of them,in various combos
 .. some years ago i believe we posted a contemporaneous show recorded from the Audience at Angouleme FR. without Wadada.Leo Smith.. i'll try to reupload that soon..

As with most Recordings on Kharma , which was run on a shoe string budget, the sound is a little one dimensional, whatever its sonic shortcomings Musically this is superb!
As i may have mentioned a few thousand times ... for me Lowe was the greatest!.. and he is certainly Sorely missed.
his late work has equal gravitas , go to the cadence website and check the audio samples of 'Vision Blue', Bodies and Soul'...' Legends streets one and two'

'Earlham Street Breakout' at  Donmar Warehouse, London.

30th July 1989

I've been playing this a lot since posting the previous session by this marvellous trio.
I'm not sure why I like them so much.  I think it might have something to do with them having the same number of letters in their names.

Enjoy.

Baden-Baden New Jazz Meeting 1977

The picture above depicts a part of the interior of the Kurfürstliches Schloss in Mainz, Germany. Some may wonder what the Schloss had to do with the annual Treffen in Baden-Baden, but as it happened, the 1977 Treffen culminated in a concert in front of an audience at the Schloss. The concert took place after rehearsals at the SWR studios in Baden-Baden, the usual locality of the Treffens over the years.

In contrast to the 1970 Treffen which we posted a little while ago, the 1977 one was a more consolidated affair with a smaller cast of characters. The core appears to be Mumps, a slightly extended version of the John Surman - Barre Phillips - Stu Martin trio with Albert Mangelsdorff making it a quartet. To this core is added vocalist Karin Krog (whose collaborations with Surman have continued apace ever since), guitarist Attila Zoller, trumpetist Tomasz Stanko, pianist Stan Tracey, tenor saxophonist Johnny Griffin and bassist Motoharu Yoshizawa. The brunt of the cast was also on the 1970 sessions, leaving Griffin, Tracey and Yoshizawa as the new ingredients to the mix.

As usual there are full group performances as well as several splits into duos and trios, though no pure solo performances on this set of tunes. Less rowdy and rambunctious than some of the predecessors, the accent is here on solidly grounded modern jazz, some anchored in reworkings of Monk standards, others venturing into ambient landscapes - with synths and abstract vocalese. Some of the rehearsal pieces reappear in the concert, also a regular feature of the Treffens.

I can't dish up seven hours this time, but there should be enough here to sink one's tastebuds into. I find myself liking this set better than some of the earlier ones, possibly because it sounds more coherent and consoliated. In any case, enjoy!
