Honestly. Does playing the drums get any better than this?

Unaware of 801. Like this Beatles cover.

France Musique la Jazz (as usual.) Mingus night - hooray! Nothing else need be said. Oh, if you insist... we’ve just had ‘Solo Dancer’, now we are on to one of his gospel-shouting rave ups. If I could work out how to read iPeng and type here simultaneously I could tell you which one it is.

Edit: I did the job in series rather than parallel. It’s ‘E’s Flat, Ah’s Flat Too’. But too late, we’ve already moved on to ‘Backward Country Boy Blues.’ Blimey, what a bass player he was, besides all the other things... I think he’s probably my number one musical hero - and if I’d ever been given the chance to meet him I would have run a mile in the opposite direction.

Eno, Philips, Manzanera, Francis Monkman and Lloyd Watson. What's not to like?

"801 Live" is a superb album. The live version of "Miss Shapiro" segueing into "You Really Got Me" is great stuff.

Aka Charles Tolliver And His All Stars. 1975 Freedom Arista reissue. A rare example of the artwork for the Freedom Arista series being an improvement on the slightly goofy original. Was reissued by Pure Pleasure a couple of years ago (who also ditched the original artwork) but this will do for me.

A fantastic group but Ron Carter especially shines - listen to him take the spotlight from about 6:30..

No love for Bill? He was my favourite part of that band.
