I found out I missed a chance to see Sonny Rollins perform in Tokyo. But I'm still going to go to a jazz club sometime soon to see some top quality Japanese musicians.

Who are some of your favorite drummers? :rimshot:

The new Bobby McFerrin album, VOCAbuLarieS, is absolutely incredible.

thanks for reminding me of this. I was pretty big on it earlier in the year and then forgot about it. I'm relistening now and it is indeed most excellent.

I don't know how many of you are familiar with him but for those who aren't, you guys need to listen to Dave Holland - what a master!
I couldn't find it on Youtube or Grooveshark so I uploaded a whole album for you (and anyone else for that matter)

"See-Saw" from Conference of the Birds
http://listen.grooveshark.com/#/s/See+Saw/3e22R8

I fucked up and I didn't tag the track numbers so for any of you that want to listen to the whole thing (I recommend you do so) it's: 1 Four Winds; 2 Q & A; 3 Conference of the Birds; 4 Interception; 5 Now Here (Nowhere); 6 See-Saw

And from one of his more recent Big Band albums Pass It On, "Lazy Snake"

Enjoy!

You may have heard On the Beach by Philip Cohran (although if you haven't I'll gladly hook you up). Amazing in it's own right, here's a lesser known of his. Truly incredible music.

Does anybody know where I can get the score from the '60s version of Haxan?

I love all three, but blakey proabably one that one for me. Elvin seemed pretty strung out their: not his best.

There's this cool group called The Bad Plus I found out about from allmusic. I'm listening to their album Never Stop from this year. Really adventurous stuff going on here.
