‘2 Ts for a Lovely T’ - Cecil Taylor Feel Trio, Cecil Taylor, William Parker, Tony Oxley
This was released as a very limited 10 cd set back in 2002, documenting the Feel Trio playing at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club in London.
I decided not to spend the money at the time and of course the set is impossible to find now…except on Tidal and Quboz!
Excellent sound, the music on the first cd is amazing, lots to look forward to.

How you like your UHQR?
Would you believe one-step “Companion” trumps 45rpm version? You better believe it!

Japanese fusion-jazz from 1975 in the form of earlier CTI era George Benson. Green Caterpillar issued on the Japanese Three Blind Mice label. This album featuring Masaru Imada - piano, Isoo Fukui - bass, Tetsujiro Obara - drums, Kazumi Watanabe - guitar, and Yuji Imamura congas & percussion, has a great vibe.

Locksmith Isidore Caroline, featuring some swift footed bass clarinet from Jason Stein supported by Jason Roebke on bass and drummer Mike Pride. Fans of Eric Dolphy are certain to enjoy this Northern Spy LP release.

I’ve been listening to this frequently, excellent first release from LA-based Julien Knowles. Apparently available only via streaming services.

Jason Adasiewicz Roy’s World, yet another under appreciated excellent Chicago based musician, (Jason Stein also falls into this category).
Roy’s World released by Corbett vs. Dempsey in 2017 was recorded at Steve Albini’s Electric Audio. For this session Jason gathered some outstanding players: Joshua Abrams, Hamid Drake, Josh Berman, and Jonathon Doyle.

A 1973 LP Dharma Quintet End Starting, squarlely rooted in the early 70’s fusion vibe with its Fender Rhodes Piano with ring modulator. A wild ride.
Absolutely excellent new set from Matt Mitchell.
Matt Mitchell - piano
Chris Tordini – bass
Dan Weiss - drums

Just ordered a new lp copy of this from Moers. Seems promising.
Dog Soldier alone is worth the price of entry.
The sonics on the Analog Productions version are sublime, and as Ron has correctly noted the Harmon mute has been tamed. Personally I don’t mind the bite on the Craft Recordings reissue and am most happy to have both copies. I will note listening is on a less resolving analog playback system, with my original Linn LP 12, significantly updated, an Ittok LVII and Denon DL-304 MC cartridge. Speakers are Pure Audio Project Trio Classics which tend to be more forgiving with regards to the Harmon mute.
Do I have a favorite Miles Davis LP, of course not, but Miles Davis Quintet Relaxin’ seems to get a fair amount of time on the turntable.
