However I have a feeling my ears aren't fine tuned enough to really notice any differences in mastering. I think this sounds good though. Apparently Alan Silva said that Rudy Van Gelder didn't know how to record this band. Maybe that's true - the basses are kind of light. shanleymusichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09648245457919063666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27529233.post-49251718579751764562023-09-01T09:08:42.216-04:002023-09-01T09:08:42.216-04:00Hey its Leland...i got cut off, previous comment w...Hey its Leland...i got cut off, previous comment was me. Nice review. If you come across the sources of the recent Cyrille interviews let me know.<br /><br />I waa also really into Cecil's poetry and I also wrote alot myself, inspired by him and others. His poetry helped me understand the music. He would abhor the undless stream of todays instagram feeds of solo drum videos- the machine beat precision-that stealthily go into bones and petrify brain matter, fuse-ing into cold criticisms towards others with a more wide understanding.<br /><br />Have you played an original vinyl copy side by side? If the Kevin Gray is really different I would buy it. I have over time finally become annoyed by all the Kevin Gray hype. They are not even close to the life force breath that exists in the originals. I might make an exception this one last time.<br /><br />Cecil was working towards the performance of the biology of music ( and life force itself) rather than music.<br /><br />Thanks Mike,<br />LelandAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27529233.post-81753783883942982072023-08-12T22:29:51.493-04:002023-08-12T22:29:51.493-04:00Hi, thanks for posting.

Couldn't agree with you more - an absolutely great show. Wish I had been in NYC for their show at La Poisson Rouge this past Monday (3/20). Lewis has a number of lps, but I highly recommend the last two, 'Jessup Wagon'from 2022 and 'Eye and I' from 2023. The latter includes the "Fear Not" track with the Messthetics.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02307788290245650762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27529233.post-44341218053335338882023-03-20T21:49:33.833-04:002023-03-20T21:49:33.833-04:00Belated thanks for your comment, dear person in S....Belated thanks for your comment, dear person in S.

SOOOOOOO many feelz here. Where do I...Oh man, Mike. SOOOOOOO many feelz here. Where do I even start? Well, wishing you a swift and complete recovery from COVID seems like a good place to start. Shitty time of year to get sick (though staying out of the retail crush in December was a positive side-effect). <br /><br />Your comment on freelance outlets hit home. When I moved to Cleveland, I entertained ambitions (a strange word for me) to pick up the music writing that I had done for the Erie Times. I'm no Bob Blumenthal or Ben Ratliff, but I thought I could throw some stuff over the transom at the local alt weekly. It turns out that there is no media oxygen here for covering the kind of music I write about, despite the dynamism and interest in the local scene.<br /><br />So I did it myself <a href="https.www.johnchacona.com/lets-call-this" rel="nofollow">here</a>. My metrics are woeful, but it doesn't matter. Whatever else I do, I provide a link for artists and presenters to share, shareable media, being just as legitimate for them as their paid (ads), earned (traditional editorial) and owned (email blasts, websites) media efforts. It supports the scene and I'm happy to help, a healthy scene being a big part of why I moved here.<br /><br />Then in June, on my way to a ballgame with longtime jazz DJ Jim Szabo, I listened to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/29/arts/music/popcast-jazz-venues.html" rel="nofollow"> this NYT Popcast</a> on the changing nature and continuing importance of venues to the health of scenes. Skip to about 44 minutes if you want (though the whole thing is instructive) and you'll find a reason for living.<br /><br />Metrics are metrics, but if you're not monetizing your site (I'm not), simply documenting the scene is a worthy and even necessary vocation. Now, you have a day job and kids, so you have a lot more claims on your time to take care of the ones you love.<br /><br />But don't you also love the music and the scene? And don't you want to take care of it as best you know how? Please don't lose faith, and please keep hammering away. You readers need you. The music needs you.<br /><br />Happy New Year.John Chaconahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02675459107270070654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27529233.post-40469129287202974832022-07-28T07:40:37.747-04:002022-07-28T07:40:37.747-04:00Very nice blog you have hereeVery nice blog you have hereeHVAC Contractors Port Orangehttps://www.hvac-professionals.com/us/mechanical-contractors-florida/hvac-contractors-port-orange.shtmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27529233.post-3639643492950041262022-04-19T11:31:57.713-04:002022-04-19T11:31:57.713-04:00I am the pipe dreamer , Harriet Stein .
