Requests, Contributions and General Discussion

This is a place where you can post comments about Inconstant Sol sort of music when it isn't about a specific post. If there's anything you'd like to contribute, please put the links here and we'll try to attend to it and make a proper post, to the best of our capacity. Of course, anyone is free to respond to requests and to contribute whatever they may have.

Please just focus on the music, the musicians and the issues they raise. Due to circumstances, we are now having to delete comments on other, more personal, issues as they are clearly against the terms of usage for blogging as provided by Blogger.

Would you please post Joe Harriott's Abstract? Thanks, amazing blog.

Interesting to see, when you click on someone profile, how many people are running private blogs here....

Wallofsound said...

I am sorry to tell you that I have deleted some comments. If yours was a genuine contribution I can only apologise. We have had real problems here before, and I would not like them to return.

We ask that you "Please just focus on the music, the musicians and the issues they raise." Personal attacks fall outside this range.

It is not always clear who has posted a comment, and we have had individuals taking on the identity of others and then incite visitors to the blog to respond.

May I take this opportunity to let everyone know that we post out of print and otherwise available music here. We share the music in the hope that more people will enjoy it and support the artists.

I hope my fellow contributors do not mind me taking this action.

mega-thanks for posting this, mew - also for the discog - it's much better than the one I'd been looking at

came across two recent vid clips someone posted links to in one of the jazzforums:

Arcturus said...

hey mew - thanks again for posting that Sirone concert - it's a really fantastic set! I very much enjoyed hearing fresh arangements/voicings on these pieces - he gets quite a variety of colorations from this ensemble - may not have writtena lot, but his compositions are pretty strong, supple vehicles w/ some compelling melodies

fwiw, here's my take on the song breaks, along w/ their original recording appearances:

1. [43:24]
Illusions of Reality 00:00 (Artistry)
Breath of Life 10:40 (Artistry)
For All We Don't Know 18:54 (Concord)
Circumstances 30:30 (Artistry)
Free Spirits 36:05 (Original Phalanx)

2. [05:52] Black Horse (undetermined)


Possibly a product of the Cut-Paste Age, in what little's been written on Sirone since his death, there's been little very notice of last year's Revolutionary Ensemble release on MutableMusic (www.mutablemusic.com), "Beyond the Boundary of Time" which is another satisfying listen worth tracking down

(many thanks to upkerry for uploading this)


from And Now . . . Sirone:

Sirone grew up in Atlanta playing alongside such musicians as George Adams. He described his earliest musical experiences: “I was in high school, I played the trombone and I was kicked out of the orchestra.” . . .

Projects in Sirone's future include more work with the Revolutionary Ensemble, attempts to reissue his two first records as a leader, including Artistry with flutist James Newton (”I wanted to do something completely different than what I did with the Ensemble but I wanted another sound not with the traditional instruments you hear in the music and I thought of a flute but I did not want a saxophone player who doubled on the flute, I wanted a flautist.”) . . .

Arcturus said...

Chris Albertson, from Stereo Review:

Jazz bassist Sirone (sometimes still referred to as Norris Jones) began studying musical theory and composition at the age of five, entered his teens as a trombone player, and came of age as a bassist backing such popular early-Sixties singers as Sam Cooke and Jerry Butler. Before moving to New York in 1965, Sirone worked with a co-op band in his home town, Atlanta, and—predictably, given his extensive formal training—found himself drawn toward the day’s avant-garde jazz movement. Accordingly, his New York associates during the latter half of the Sixties included Archie Shepp, Pharoah Sanders, Albert Ayler, Noah Howard, Sun Ra, and Cecil Taylor. I can recall a time, some ten years ago, when Sirone and Taylor occupied adjoining lofts on New York’s West 31st Street and frequently played host to some of their illustrious (if unsung) colleagues; often the most wondrous sounds found their way to the street below, blending there with jukebox pap from the downstairs tavern and the whirr and buzz of city movements. If passers-by heard the loft sounds, they ignored them with characteristic New York cool.

Sirone’s sounds have made their way onto records before—with the late, lamented Revolutionary Ensemble (which he co-led with violinist Leroy Jenkins) and with him as a sideman in groups led by Dewey Redman, Marion Brown, Cecil Taylor, Gate Barbieri, and others—but “Artistry” is the first album over which he has had complete control. It is an impressive leadership debut: magnificently performed, well recorded, and tastefully packaged. This is the first release from a new label awkwardly named “Of the Cosmos,” and it is obviously a labor of love.

Sirone has assembled an unusual but most effective quartet composed of bass, flute, cello, and percussion. The roles are evenly divided, but the individually conceived variations on Sirone’s themes blend into a cohesive whole, making his contribution toward shaping the result obvious to anyone familiar with his previous work. Flutist James Newton is new to me, but judging by his work here he just might update his instrument the way Jean-Luc Ponty did the violin.

The cello has played a very limited role in jazz since the late Oscar Pettiford more or less introduced it to the idiom thirty years ago; Chico Hamilton employed it effectively in his late-Fifties groups, and Ron Carter occasionally switches to it today, but there has not yet been a Casals of jazz. As impressive here as Muneer Bernard Fennel's interwoven cello commentary is within the context of Sirone’s ensemble, I still don’t see much of a future for the instrument in the so-called “new music.”

Finally, providing a bouncy yet firm platform for the creative leaps of his three colleagues, there is the formidable percussionist of the Art Ensemble of Chicago, Don Moye. As Stanley Crouch (uh-oh) points out in his literate and authoritative notes, Moye is indeed a percussionist rather than just a drummer playing percussion instruments. His tasteful, unselfish sense of dynamics is an essential ingredient in the musical success of this album.

There is no need to go into details about the music. The four thematic compositions, all by Sirone, are multifaceted, well constructed, and at times even brilliant. But I should point out that although some of this music is quite accessible even to ears not attuned to the free jazz forms of recent years, “Artistry” is in the main an album for the more adventurous music lover. Sirone is carrying on the traditions established by the early artists of jazz, not by imitation but by development in a contemporary frame.


Plenty one could quibble w/ in that review, but not a bad contemporaneous take for someone whose main interests appear to be much more traditional.

Hello iconsistant sol... I have recently found this blog site and many others that I find wonderful in so many ways. Having been a music collector for over four decades, these great sites bring me back to my youth like a kid in a candy store - just so many wonderful treats that I know that I will love.
Some years ago I checked some blogs out and saw so many wonderful things posted, but... they were always... always... just MP3's and that bummed me out so much. I just never could see taking the time and effort to make posts of music doing it in substandard crappy musical quality, especially jazz music where all the nuances of true musicianship, great recording and all that goes with musical artistry, being shared in hacked up MP3 quality. That really just didn't make any sense to me at all. And... now I find that so many people share all this fantastic music in true lossless quality, along with HQ scans, etc... Well, that is all that I ever even bothered to collect online at all. I guess that with storage mediums and archiving becoming more widely known about (and less expensive) that many others have come around to the fact that quality does matter.
Well, I have decided to join in all the fun with my new blog - The Music Emporium
http://simmdale.blogspot.com/
There really won't be any definite genre involved there at all, it will be a collection of all type of sundries, a cornucopia, if you will... just a vast music emporium to wander. If you don't see something to interest you right away, just come back around as I am sure that an item that will strike your fancy soon enough. The one unfying thing of all that you will find listed there will be... quality.
I hope that a few of you fellow music lovers will find your way there and always... enjoy the music!

ng as rapidshare is pretty much only allowing premium downloads , might you guys finally start using some other filehost , I would love to hear some of this stuff but rapidshare no longer allows free users

kinabalu said...

Are you sure? i downloaded my recent Amalgam using the free account and it went fine, although slower than on the premium account. I used Divshare before, but found it puts an upper limit on downloads. I haven't checked the others, so I can't say anything about restrictions. But the files on RS should be accessible to all, at least my postings.

I use a premium account to speed up downloads and to make sure that the uploads stay online. You get what you pay for (and you don't have to wade through all of the adverts on many of the free service). Even though it costs a bit, RS is very reliable, and there is even an unofficial programme that will track of all of the downloads so you know what's being downloaded and when.

kinabalu said...

Hi Simmdale,

normally we give people a choice between lossy and lossless formats and it's still a fact that most prefer the mp3 format, possibly because it's smaller and requires less download time. But the rate of lossless downloads is increasing.

I suppose preferences have to do with usages. If it's a portable medium, mp3s are OK, but if it's good headphones connected to a hifi system, then flacs are the better alternative. On most of the trading sites, mentioning mp3s is beyond sacrilege. So, it's all what you're after, but personally, given the choice, I prefer the better quality, quite simply because it's better in preserving the sound quality of the source, and for a number of people, that's the most important thing.

Does anyone have the DVD of Cecil Taylor-All the Notes? If so, please feel free to drop me an e-mail.

Just a brief note about dowloading from Rapidshare as a free user ...
all you need to do is create a so called 'collectors' account , it only takes a few minutes, and has the benefits of ( for free uploaders) not having your files deleted after 10 hits, and for downloaders of less waiting between downloads, and also the possibility of paralell downloads.
its that simple!

this is a great record .... one of the last SME'S which is still rooted in jazz to some small degree.

thanks for 'So What do you think', a great record. Another highly recommended SME Tangent album, of similar vintage and not re-issued, is 'The Source', posted on the 'jizzrelics' blog.

I am posting now simply to say thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks!!!

Though I've been an avid fan of this sort of music for twenty years, it has taken me until now to find this blog, which probably shows my age and lack of technical chops.

Anyway, there are records here (gems from Moers, Horo, India Navigation, etc.) that I remember loving back in my college radio days, then never seeing again. I had pretty much resigned myself to never hearing Arthur Blythe's amazing "Bush Baby" again, for instance, since I lost my old fuzzy tape of it in a move a couple years ago.

Then lo and behold! There it is, along with all I ever dreamed of and more, posted here and at so many other music sharing blogs, which I've found through your links. Nommo!!!! I've been dreaming of a chance to hear that record since I read "Blues People" my freshman year in college!!!

I'll confess I've been downloading like a drunken sailor (if drunken sailors download) for the last week and a half. It will probably take me months to listen to all these amazing recordings... ecstatic months.

Encountering the dispute of January 2009 here on the blog snapped me out of my acquisitive trance, though, and made it clear just how important it is for me to say thank you.

So again, thank you to all posters for all your time and effort. You are keeping a whole brilliant phase of jazz history from disappearing, and that in my view makes you true heroes.

In this spirit, I'll conclude with a request: would it be possible for anyone to re-upload the New York Art Quartet's "Mohawk" in mp3 format?

Thanks again, either way. You have made my year, and it's only January 5.

kinabalu said...

Yes, the link has gone, but you can get Mohawk here. Thanks for the kind comments!

serviceton said...

Yes, nicely commented Anonymous ! (why not grab a blogger id so people will recognize you next time? - only takes 3 seconds..)
I'm not sure which rip of the record is linked at Magic of Juju - I'm sure it's a good one, though it does go back to 2006 when bit rates tended to be more modest..
Boromir's rip that appeared here - a beautifully solid, present 256kbps job, can be downloaded here

Thanks for the quick turn around on Mohawk! It's amazing. Can't get enough of Roswell Rudd from that period -- there's a brilliance and freshness about what he was doing that just blows the mind.

I'm looking for a mike gibbs band recording: 'just ahead' ('71/'72). someone offered me a version from which the last track is missing ('so long hone' 21min.16s.), so if someone could post at least this particular piece I'd be very grateful... thank you all for keeping this blog alive!

alessandro said...

Thank you for the usual great job. Just one point: PLEASE don't use rapidshare any longer! Most of the times I try to download from it, I get a message like "Unfortunately right now our servers are overloaded and we have no more download slots left for non-members. Of course you can also try again later". Thus, I need a whole week to download just 3 flac files from it. My advice is sharebee.com: you upload your files on sharebee and sharebee uploads them on 5 different servers (including rapidshare, anyway) at the same time. Then, to download them you just have to skip the ads, which is far quicker than waiting for a rapidshare "download slot left for non-members".
Thank you so much
Alessandro

Anonymous said...

alessandro - the key to the Rapsidshare thing is the TIMING. At certain times of the day, you will constantly get the responses you are getting from them. Try a few hours earlier or a couple of hours later than you normally do - and you should be able to find a 'sweet spot' where you rarely or never find the 'download slots full'. You will still have to wait your 135 seconds or whatever it may be - but, hey! whaddya want for free ?

kinabalu said...

I have a premium account with Rapidshare which is convenient both for uploads and downloads. It's not particularly fast, but it's quite reliable.

What I would suggest is that downloaders could always upload the files to another server of their choice to make it easier for the next downloader to get them - maybe faster, maybe less waiting time. Please don't forget to put the new file locations in the comments to the post. That way we may mimimize the risk of files being deleted due to inactivity.
Let's make this a coperative venture, shall we?

and lastly

Steve Lacy (14 apr 2007) only the left channel plays, needs to be redone

So, if anyone could reupload them, people leave comments for this from 2009 and so on.

Lastly, if anybody owns a copy of Don Cherry : Movement incorporated (Anagram Records, 1967) I would definitely be happy.

The Chris McGregor is now commercially available again, but wasn't at the time of posting, so there's no need to reupload that one.

First of all... THANK YOU for such an awesome blog, to blogger and commenters alike. Not only for making all this available, not only for defending the right of the artists to be paid for their work when the possibility exists, but also for being one of the relatively few blogs for this music I've found that supports FLACs and not just MP3s.

Of course, I do have a request list... none of these are readily available (and I've looked, believe me!!!). Any aid the community can lend would be much appreciated. Does anyone out there have...

Milford Graves -- Babi Music
Edward Vesala -- Kullervo
Marzette Watts -- Marzette Watts Ensemble

Thanks for looking, everyone --rev

Thanks a lot to all the contributors of inconstant sol, a wonderful site !!!

Especially for Riccardo : my english is so so and I'm not familiar enough with blogs, so I didn't understand until today how to get in touch with you on the site.

I'm a Gil Evans' addict and your 2 post GE-Lee Konitz and GE-RRK are precious gifts.

I wanted to ask you if it would be ok to share them on the peer-to-peer site www.dimeadozen.org, but as I didn't manage until today to understand how to ask you that, I didn't resist and did so.

I hope you will not appreciate that as unfair, as I quoted you as the original sharer, and made at the same time advertisement for inconstant sol on dimeadozen.

Anyway, apologies for that hurry and a lot and a lot of thanks, as I wrote it in my 4 time duplicated (sorry for that too) comment on your GE-RRK post.

All the best.

mel said...

I had to look up what previous poster Freak meant.

For others who may be perplexed, this is what I found:

The alternate term ROIO or RoIO is an acronym meaning "Recording of Indeterminate Origin", or "Recording of Independent Origin". It arose among collectors trying to clarify the differences between counterfeits, illegally made copies, live bootlegs, and "ROIOs", meaning recordings whose legal status was difficult or even impossible to determine.

I finally found a way to bypass the filters the other day and have downloaded a few choice items so far. Now is is time to say thanks so much for the music and for fanning my free jazz flame.

Message for Arcturus (Sorry, but for some strange reason I can't post comments on Lovebird):
Thank you for your comments on the Roland Young; I was hoping to somehow provide some bay-area associated info before you beat me to it. The whole time I was out there (and I miss it dearly), I never saw a show at Kuumbwa. I love Santa Cruz, but most of the time I was in the SF area, they would simply book folks that were also playing at Yoshi's, yet for a higher ticket price. I've noticed a lot of small label bay area stuff popping up on the blogs lately. Hashima Williams has a bigger discography that I realized!

here's what Newk's referring to, long oop vinyl:

B3. Homeland rhythm cycles 4:13

1750 Arch Records, vinyl, 1975

flac + scans:

Here's a bio from Roland Young's website:

He's one of those people who blazes their own path.

I first heard Roland in '77, when he came to Santa Cruz for a solo concert @ Kuumbwa. His was the first or second bass clarinet (the other was Peter Kuhn) that I heard performed live, & I was already a Dolphy fanatic @ that point.

If you've heard of Roland, it's likely because of his acoustic/electronic explorations. If you listen carefully, you'll hear some bits of electronics on this recording, tho it isn't mentioned in the credits.

Glenn Howell is still around, playing electric bass @ Glide Memorial Church in SF's Tenderloin every Sunday & occasionally showing up on various local bandstands.

Aisha Kahlil's wordless voice entwines & plays w/ the horn in very satisfying ways to these ears. Makes for an interesting (& marked!) contrast to the Buckner/Mitchell recordings that 1750 Arch St. has also released. Here's her bio.

The album is a very unique take on many of the cultural/musical currents in the air at the time.

I have to say that it has been a pure joy to discover this blog. I was reading Rafi Zabor's "The Bear Comes Home" and got interested in learning more about Julius Hemphill, with whose music I had only a slight familiarity. Google brought me here and it was bliss to discover other people who (to paraphrase Zabor), don't care "that Wynton has declared free jazz illegal ..."

This blog is a treasure!

Newk: It ain't a race - if you've anything to add about Roland Young, please, jump in.

It's been over 25 years since I've attended a show @ Kuumbwa & I haven't kept a close eye on all the doings there. Many things have changed greatly, but I'm not sure about the assertion that "they would simply book folks that were also playing at Yoshi's, yet for a higher ticket price." A quick spotcheck of an upcoming Bill Frissell Trio shows that tix are $32 @ Yoshi's, $26.50 @ Kuumbwa. I've no idea if that's 'the norm' or not. Yoshi's tho *does* have a one drink minimum/set, w/ a beer going for $5 or $6 & wine/liquor priced higher, which ups the ante considerably for a night out. No required drink buying @ Kuumbwa, ever (tho the dream of a non-alcoholic performance space fell by the economic wayside years ago - beer & wine is available). There may well be times when the cover is higher @ K, but (& this is just a guess) that's likely a factor of the touring band's guarantee & fewer seats to fill in the house. Also, local musicans are more likely to be playing for a percentage of the door rather than a set fee, & the 'door' won't include the profit from drinks.

Personally, depsite the excellent acoustics & outstanding sightlines in both Yoshi's venues, that corporate/yuppie environment isn't really my preferred venue to hear music. Dollars spent @ a non-profit like Kuumbwa or the long gone Koncepts Kultural Gallery don't wind up as profits in private pockets but might well fund an educational program, which may or may not matter to someone in say the south bay who has a viable choice of which one to go to. They are certainly different 'atmospheres.' I often drive 1 1/2 hours each way to hear shows @ Yoshi's, but it would be different if Santa Cruz weren't 2 1/2 hours away from me. (cont. below)

Arcturus said...

(cont . . .):

Booking the same bands who are on tour is really a win-win-win for musicians, venues & audience. I got involved w/ Kuumbwa when it was just a group of people putting on concerts around town w/ a crazy dream of opening a jazz center in a rock & roll college town where the music writers for the papers had nothing but a blank stare to your excitement about bringing someone like Joe Henderson or Mal Waldron to town. Todd Barkan of Keystone Korner (Yoshi's didn't exist then) helped enormously by encouraging musicians to come down to Santa Cruz & play Monday nights before or after a 6 day gig in SF. Building an audience in a small town that would come out to support national 'name' bands on a Monday night was no small feat.

Those concerts make it possible to maintain a space where local, bay area, & out-of-towners putting together their own tour can perform. Yoshi's - to its credit - does present some local musicians, but they do a pretty lousy job promoting any of it. In the short time I was @ K (left in '79) we put on unique concerts by people like Sonny Simmons, Eddie Gale, Ed Kelly, Smiley Winters, Ray Drummond, Martha Young, Julian Priester, Andrew Hill, Mark Levine, Roland Young & Idris Ackamoor among others from the bay area. Young local musicians like Paul Contos, Wayne Horvitz, James Zitro, Peter Kuhn & Jon Jang also had a chance to perform there. Vinny Golia came up once from LA w/ the Cline borthers. A trip to NY to hear AIR @ Axis-in-Soho led to a remarkable series of solo concerts by Oliver Lake, Henry Threadgill, Don Moye, Anthony Braxton, & George Lewis, none of whom were getting much in the way of gigs at larger venues on the west coast at that time. Just earlier this month, the Other Minds Festival in SF brought out Kidd Jordan w/ William Parker & Warren Smith (who btw is high on my list of way-over-neglected percussionists) for a 30-45 minute set. They never played Yoshi's but audiences did get to hear them again in two full sets joined by Eddie Gale at Pete Douglas' place in Half Moon Bay, the Bach Dancing & Dynamite Society, as well as on Monday night @ Kuumbwa.

The SF bay area is blessed to have a host of musicans along w/ many small performance spaces & music series to fill some of the gaps bigger venues can't or won't. Last weekend we checked out a new-ish space (open about a year now) in Oakland, called Flux 53. Two largely unknown bay area 'secret gems' in their 60's, Lewis Jordan (of United Front) & India Cooke (whom we've spoken of before, in comments above), led a smoking quintet before an audience of 17, which included the guitarist's parents, Lewis Jordan's wife, a close friend of India Cooke's & at least two staff members. A pretty pathetic Saturday night turn-out by bay area jazz lovers . . .

SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL MUSICIANS !!!

As a small thankyou for the many excellent South African gems I would like to share a recording of a performance by the Johnny Dyani Quintet that I haven't seen anywhere else:

October'04/86

Johnny Dyani - Bass

Total time: 55:44

Broadcast on CBC-CBOF-Radio Canada FM -

The recording (which I picked up at Soulseek, if I remember correctly) is in mp3 @ 256 kbps. However, the package included a text file that talks about a FLAC version. I'm hoping that perhaps someone out there has the FLAC or knows where I can find it.

Arcturus-
Thanks for those great responses. Well said. I'll touch on a few things you mentioned when I get the chance. I was going to mention how much I enjoy the Supplicants, and how I wish they had a bigger audience, but it looks like you are already hip to them too. The bay's jazz scene always seemed full of folks who didn't record nor perform often enough. EW Wainwright...Art Lewis...India for sure! Howard Wiley has been doing some interesting work lately too.
And one quick comment on what you posted: I'm not a big supporter of Yoshi's, either. Especially after the SF location opened up in that building that felt like an invitation for gentrification or the continual flowing downward of Pacific Heights into the Fillmore. But...when it came to seeing certain acts, many whom I'd never thought I'd live to see...Don't get me started on ranting about SFJazz Fest. Okay, more to come.

I just discovered your wonderful blog and in particular I am blown away with the Julius Hemphill material.

Thanks (from the States).

In case you hadn't heard, there's a new kid on the block,

posting videos, both music & others w/ great music accompaniment - way more than I could ever possibly keep up w/

highest priority for me was a Braxton concert, w/ Hugh Ragin, Marilyn Crispell & Ray Anderson (recorded at the same time as "Composition 98"), the Art Ensemble, Han Bennink & Keiji Haino, a Globe Unity Orchestra gig, another by Last Exit, & more recently concerts by Nuova Consonanza, Sun Ra & Henry Cow.

The following popped up on Demonoid recently, my thanks to seeder.

DAVID S WARE Trio (Peter Kowald, Louis Moholo) -
Workshop Freie Musik Berlin, Germany April 27, 1985

Akademie Der K�Este



disk1
1. unknown titles / Prayer// [46:44] (tape flip)
2. //Prayer [3:12]

disk2
2. The Elder's Path [19:41]

4. An Ancient Formula [7:46]
5. unknown title [4:45]

David S. Ware (tenor sax; vocals)
Peter Kowald (bass)
Louis Moholo (drums)

It's a good-quality audience recording, mp3 @256kbps. I don't know if it's already done the rounds, but I'd never seen it before. I think it was a short-lived trio that Ware put together for a European tour, never commercially recorded I believe, more's the pity. A sunning rhythm section!

Sunny Murray Quartet

November 6, 1968

A.B.C.D. (21:13)

Paul Jeffrey - saxophone
Kenneth Terroade - saxophone
Ronnie Beer - saxophone
Sunny Murray - drums


Recorded at a concert, probably somewhere in Europe, as part of what looks like a joint tour with Art Blakey's Jazz Messengers, the Drum Workshop that included Sunny Murray, Art Blakey and Elvin Jones (there are some videos on you tube, i think), and possibly the Elvin Jones Trio (see October/November 1968 in the Sunny Murray discography www.mindspring.com/~scala/murray.htm).

i couldn't find any more details for this recording, but the saxophones are probably all tenors, they sound like tenors and all three saxophonists are mostly associated with the tenor.

I wish somebody could shed some light on these live dates and on this particular quartet...

Hallo Jazz lovers, I am new here, and I must say this blog is very interesting! Congratulations with this possibility of sharing opinions and oop music of the sort of jazz which is under pressure almost everywhere I guess.

I am very interested in the recent string of early free jazz from Germany and Japan. A little bit more than I can keep up with but I'll try to dig through a s much of it as I can. This blog is a really great resource. Thanks a lot.

"Buschi" Niebergall (b, tb); Peter Kowald (b); Mani Neumaier (d); Jaki Liebezeit (d)

1 Globe Unity (A. von Schlippenbach) 19:12

Recorded at the Berliner Jazztage 1966. This is the first performance of what came to be known as the Globe Unity Orchestra. In 1966 Alexander von Schlippenbach was commissioned by the RIAS (Radio in the American Sector -- one of two radio stations in West Berlin) to write a composition for large ensemble to be performed during the Berliner Jazztage 1966. The program for November 3 was dedicated to "third stream music":

1. A composition by Boris Blacher for String Quartet, featuring Carmell Jones and Leo Wright;
2. Schlippenbach's "Globe Unity" for orchestra and four soloists;
3. The Albert Ayler Quintet;
4. The Kurt Edelhagen Orchestra performing compositions by Pavel Blatny and Jaromir Hnilicka;
5. Willie "The Lion" Smith

For his ensemble Schlippenbach drew on three working groups:

1. The Manfred Schoof Quintet (Schoof, Dudek, Schlippenbach, Niebergall, Liebezeit);
2. The Gunter Hampel Quartet (Hampel, Breuker);
3. The Peter Brötzmann Quintet (Deron, Brötzmann, Wanders, Kowald, Neumeier)

Since there were few improvising trombone and tuba players, Schlippenbach persuaded the classical players Horst Gmeinwieser and Willi Lietzmann to join the ensemble.

Schlippenbach's first LP, Globe Unity (Saba/MPS SB 15019) was recorded a little more than a month after the Berlin concert, on December 6/7, 1966 at Ariola Studio in Köln with the same ensemble minus Gmeinwieser.

Can't help you with the rest.

There's something I've been craving for a long time: a vinyl rip of Karyobin by SME. That would make my day!

I have the CD-rip, but I've never seem an LP-rip anywhere.

Well, anyway, thanks for your great blog!

kinabalu said...

I did post Karyobin earlier this year. I can't say for sure whether it was an lp or cd rip, but would it make much difference?

intempestif said...

Dear Kinabalu, you've got the unreleased recording of Acoustic Swing Duo? I'd really really be interested in hearing it! Could you please share it?

Ernst Grgo Nebhuth said...

I'm very curious to hear the unreleased recording of the Acoustic Swing Duo.

gut said...

@kinabalu:

The CD-version of Karyobin has different mix to the original, made by Stevens (or someone on his behalf). For example the emphasis on the drums is different. I would be very interested in hearing what the original mix is like.

If someone's interested, here's some pretty frantic Finnish lo-fi free improvisation from 2004.

The artist is Jumala, and this is their only release, a self released CDr. A duo with recorder, harmonica, vocals and drums.

@onxidlib - Duo CHRISTMANN/SCHÖNENBERG - a pleasure indeed! With Harald Bojé, as on 'Remarks' on FMP or live at Moers '78. Not too many electronium players out there - Harald Bojé played it for K. Stockhausen''s ensemble.
Extraordinary instrument

Hi!
I'm searching from some years Raphe Malik's "21st Century Texts". There is no reedition from FMP. Could anybody help me?
