What Jazz are you listening to now?

This link is to a BBC broadcast from 1974 of Barbara Thompson's band Jubiaba, which was formed a couple of years or so before Paraphernalia, and ran concurrently until about 1978. Tracklisting and personnel are shown. The recording quality is exceptionally good, as is the performance, but the URL is very long, and although I found this on another site, I'm not sure it's authorised for transcription. So, if the link doesn't work, I'll delete the post. Anyway, here goes:

That link takes me to a 10'23" track called Black Macumba, S_A - no "tracklisting [or] peronnel are shown"?

PS - ah, yes, the last minute is given over to an announcer (who sounds vaguely familiar) giving the personnel.

There's a little rightward pointing arrow in the top right hand corner of the window, which you have to click on to play rest of the tracks, one at a time. At the end of the last track, the arrow to the following page gives you the personnel and track titles. in a nice old-fashioned typeface, ferney.

I bought the original vinyl, purely on spec, and have never regretted doing so. I've always enjoyed so-called free jazz players playing on chord changes: even when it doesn't quite work out the way it would with "fully versed" players, it's nevertheless always interesting.

" He (Michel) and (Miles) Davis became friends and collaborated again in 1991, shortly before the trumpeter’s death, on a film called Dingo, directed by Rolf de Heer. “Miles called me up and said, ‘Michel, you’d better bring your fucking ass to Los Angeles next week because we’re doing a film. I agreed to do it on condition that you are with me.’ So I push all my work away. I go to his house in Malibu. We talk a lot, we drink a lot, we eat a lot. Friday arrives, the sessions are starting on Monday, and we haven’t written anything yet. Miles says, ‘We shouldn’t do it.’ I say, ‘Miles, that’s not nice, a young man is counting on you. OK, I have an idea. I’ll go to my hotel and I’ll compose everything in four days and four nights. On Wednesday I’ll record the orchestra and Saturday you come.’ He says, ‘Michel – I knew you were a genius.’ That bastard. An adventure! I love this very much.” - Richard Williams interview with Michel Legend, September 2018.

Those 60s Godard movies with Anna Karina do it for me! And the score to "Les Demoiselles de Rochford" where Catherine Deneurve and her equally wonderful sister dance around the music room because the circus boys are coming to town. Magnificent!

I agree SA, it is the Free Jazz players conception that makes it such an interesting and satisfying success.

He and Phil Woods really had a rapport! I'm tempted to JRR request Barney Wilen's Legrand, "What are you doing rest of your life", from his "French Ballads" album as a tribute. Very short but a really lovely tenor ballad, probably the best version. Time we had some more Barney on the airways.
