and now Monk's brilliant corners.
great stuff too!
i wanted to go buy a record as a gift to a jazz-lover, couldnt find the record i wanted so over the next couple of days i downloaded and began listening some of the available options, and i have heard like 3-4 masterpieces for the first time!

Harsh, noisy, lofi, nearly-free jazz. It is almost frightening in its intensity.

Wow!!
Keep on eye on Nicole Glover. Amazing talent.

^^^^^^ yeah, boy - good era ^^^^^^

Altschul (and Bennink too) kept me occupied in my practice room in those days.
Especially Altschul's work with Circle. Wore the following double album out many
times back in those days. Loved his (still do) seven and half minute percussion solo
that introduces Braxton's 73° Kelvin. Have that Braxton twisted melody memorized
to the point where I can whistle it.



Another great album. Just swap Corea with Rivers.

Afro-Harping
Album by Dorothy Ashby
(1968)

This album is a ridiculous, insane blast. I’ve heard that he didn’t tell the other musicians what was up and that they were pissed.

Some of what he plays is like what but a lot of it works for me. At the very least he has a decent knack for when to play and when not to. **** it, I think he’s good.
