    Ah... SO! Haven't heard it.

    Jeez, I might have to rob a record store one of these days, unless anyone wants to make a charitable donation to my music fund.

    It's a great record! Beautiful arrangements, and a state of the art recording engineered by Jim Anderson.

    Wow... I was born a weeks before his apparent suicide. A troubled individual whose music was quite chaotic in feel and moving to the mind. Thanks for this posting.

    Ditto. Great record!

    I picked up Lee Morgan's Cornbread for 5 bucks at the local record store last weekend.
    Love the funky title track, and the beautiful Ceora!

    Listened to Grachan Moncur's Some Other Stuff yesterday. With the exception of one tune
    featuring chord changes, this is some of the best free music I've heard. Masterful playing
    from Herbie, Wayne Shorter, Tony Williams, and Cecil McBee on bass.

    Let's face it, you just can't make a top 10 list from the 60s.

    sure you can...you just have to do it in installments, 10 different ones in each installment

    it at least "stops" the list-mongers from posting dozens and dozens of artists in one post

    Disagree with who is the list-monger.... is it the guy that makes lists about everything and wants to limit them to 5 ot 10 (like the desert island thing or the Hi-Fidelity flick)... Why "10" and not "13.5", then??

    or is it the one that refuses to (or can't) stop at the asked number, because he's not willing to spend a lot of time and start cutting in his "top list" that he first drew before making the choices
    my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.

    I'd say the latter, but it is all done in good spirits so don't take offence.

    Yeah, a hip album. I always think of it as belonging to a quartet of LPs, the others being:

    Max Roach ~ We Insist!
    Abbey Lincoln ~ Straight Ahead
    Booker Little ~ Out Front

    Mostly the same people (e.g., Dolphy, Priester, Little, Roach) and a similar vibe and voicings in the horns.
