The new album has got a different vibe, but I certainly wouldn't say it sounds like a different band.
Baritone Saxophone, Soprano Saxophone, Bass Clarinet – John Surman
Bass – Tony Reeves
Drums – John Hiseman
Piano – Peter Lemer
Tenor Saxophone – Nisar Ahmad Khan
Engineer – Eddie Kramer
"Tanya", performed by Dexter Gordon (tenor), with Donald Byrd (trumpet) Art Taylor (drums) Niels-Henning Orsted Pedersen (bass), & Kenny Drew (piano), from the lp One Flight Up.
Another new discovery for me, I think this is stunning. Gordon's long improv is exquisite - & sounds like it kicks off by more or less quoting the opening notes of Coltrane's solo in "Blue Train". The rhythm section are totally locked in throughout. I also hear a real influence on Hugh Masekela's playing from Byrd's solo.
Reminds me of italian jazz eg. Fariselli of Area fame.

Wonderful track.
Disappointed by the Lemmer Quintet, but loved the Dexter Gordon track (this is worthy of being on KOB) and the Vukan trio is even more up my alley; thx

Well I did say almost. Obviously they didn't go black metal or rap or peruvian folk or anything like that, so it's still music that is in the same sports league, but all the energy and drive and 'mind expanding' qualities seem to have been put aside for this one (at least compared to the rest of their stuff).
Please don't ask questions, just use google.

A most welcome archival release.Sam Rivers Trio, live, 1971.

It's supposedly the first one in the whole series that would deliver Sam River's archival live sets. I am looking forward to it!
One Flight Up has been among my favorite albums ever since it came out. The total assurance of the players, the laid-back groove throughout, and -- although you can't tell from the YouTube video -- it's one of the best-recorded jazz albums ever. Pedersen's bass has gut-rumbling sub-sonics, Gordon's sax has a 'bite' which is almost live, and Byrd's trumpet, though not his best playing, is miced up close and personal. Probably Francis Wolff's finest production.
Thanks for posting this. I think I may have heard about the album in passing, but I really liked it and ended up buying it.
Cheers,
Alan
I thought I'd make myself a quick review of my favourite recordings on Clean Feed label that have been releasing some really great music for almost two decades. I got down to 21 titles by eliminating repeated artists, but I just cannot squeeze the final list any more.

Jan Johansson was a true genius. One of my favorite albums.
He made others with folksongs - the one with Russian folksongs is also good.
Btw: His two sons keyboardist Jens & drummer Anders released in 1996 Heavy Machinery with Allan Holdsworth.
Clean Feed is truly an astonishing label. In this day and age, to crank out releases like they do (and with a pretty good success rate for my ears) is a godsend. That said...there is so much CF stuff, I'll never get to it all and I feel like I've only scratched the surface.
Of your list, I quite enjoy Angels (all of their releases, but especially Injuries), Spiral Mercury, Velkro, and the Bali Tapes. I tend to go for the more energetic stuff, so just off the top of my head:
Peter Van Huffel - Iron Lung
Hairybones - Snakelust
Guillotine - S/t
FCT TRIO - From Sun Ra...
Zach Clark - Mesophase
Kris Davis - Save Your Breath
Humcrush - Enter Humcrush
Dystil - S/t
C Lillinger - First/Second Reason
Dre Hocevar - Coding Of Evidentiality
Lisbon Berlin Trio - The Line
McPhee/et al - Ticonderoga
Chris Pitsiokos - Before The Heat Death
Wire Quartet - S/t
These Arches - Hammered
Please don't ask questions, just use google.
