That looks fantastic.  If you have a chance, can you dig up any youtube links that have a track or two from these recordings for me.  Would love to hear it.

I'm on vacation in Warsaw (five nights of Peter Brötzmann - had a piece of his 75th birthday cake last night and a lengthy chat with him, too!) and such things are too cumbersome on the smartphone for me to handle. Will try to chech youtube on Friday or over the weekend, if I forget, do give me a nudge!

@Simon: that Al Haig is amazing! Hope it has both LPs (Esoteric and Vogue)?
Es wollt ein meydlein grasen gan:
Fick mich, lieber Peter!
Und do die roten röslein stan:
Fick mich, lieber Peter!
Fick mich mehr, du hast dein ehr.
Kannstu nit, ich wills dich lern.
Fick mich, lieber Peter!

Just the Esoteric album, but that was still wonderful.

Very cool that you're hanging out with Brotzmann. I don't think I posted it here but I was playing Machine Gun just a few days ago. What did you talk about, and what was he like?

playing now:



Ran Blake - The Short Life Of Barbara Monk (1986)

Bill Evans - Koln Concert



Horace Silver - In Pursuit Of The 27th Man (1974)

Brian


Mookalafalas

I'd never played this before.  Impressive lineup for sure.  Playing more relaxed than hot, but some occasionally sweet licks, especially from Teddy Wilson.  Goodman's Clarinet sound is crazy warm and nuanced. 

It's all good...

Sarah Vaughan With Clifford Brown (1954)

Page and Rugolo on a Mercury Hi-Fi. Perfect!

Last night's listening of my most recent acquisition.  As the cover indicates, bongos are front and center on this one.

home from amazing the Brötzmann trip since Friday night (report in German and lotsa bad smartphone pics here - might try and do an english write-up later on, too) ... lotsa stuff waited for me upon arriving at home, and I also bought some new stuff in Poland, notably half a dozen more from the wonderful "Polish Radio Jazz Archives" series.

The one on top, by ZA mystery group The Syndicate was played while on the plane home, the others since:
