Thought it was by Ennio Morricone for some reason. Thanks for posting dawg


Strut records just released an expanded edition of his "Mulatu of Ethiopia" album from 1972, which I've also been listening to for the past week...

Mary Halvorson Quintet - Saturn Sings

Modern Jazz at its finest. Mary's kickass trio is augmented by equally kickass sax and trumpet and the result is some very groovy, angular yet beautiful, exciting music.

If you understand Ayler then you understand that his sound is not predicated on atonality but rather he works in a tonal realm in an abstract way. This album is at the root of what his art is every bit as much as his harshest dissonance. To disregard this work is the same as saying you don’t understand Ayler at his core.

I mean, I loved the record. It was just whacky.

Chet Baker, Philip Catherine & Jean-Louis Rassinfosse - Crystal Bells

Beautiful, very melodic, fun...
Everybody should seriously check this one out, Exos and Lisnas alike.

I respect that. I’m talking about professional critics and supposed fans of free jazz who dis this record. Your take is a good one.

I heard this track while working in a frame shop around the time I joined the forums here. Still remains one of the filthiest jams I've ever heard.

I'm not the butcher or the butcher's son, but I'll handle that meat until the butcher comes...

Buddy Terry
Pure Dynamite

Aptly named. This thing KICKS. Great blend of fusion and avant-garde. Great players too. Shaw, Mtume, Airto, Eddie Henderson, Barron, Clarke. Fantastic talent.
