    ... and it's just as good as I'd hoped!
    The CD of this arrived the other day and is currently spinning. It's great. It comprises imaginatively reharmonised jazz standards, and Oz Noy's fantastic playing, his phrasing and tone are wondrous.

      Nice track, especially to hear the rarely recorded Frank Haynes. Some of his best work is captured on a live 1964 session from the Half Note with Walter Bishop Jr, Eddie Khan, Dick Berk. First two tracks on this album - Crap recording quality, great music.

        Many thanks, elmo - not an easy album to find!
        I've only recently discovered Frank Haynes who died in 1965 aged only 37. Apparently, Coltrane, Monk & Rollins attended his memorial.
        He certainly deserves an airing on JRR sometime.
        Here he is with Dave Bailey, Billy Gardner, Grant Green & Ben Tucker playing 'Reaching Out' in 1961:

          Another new name for me. No relation to Roy Haynes, from what I can see.

              Tbs track reminds me on another recorded by Michel Portal back in the 1990s. I have always liked Portal's music but he never seems to have attracted the kind of credit his reputation deserves utside of France. Even within the Hexagon, he still has his detractors. It always struck me that he was going in his own , unique direction that toally by-passed the American model and had little truck with the kind of direction other Europeans on a label like ECM had taken. Not everyone's cup of tea but maybe one of the most original musicians at blending the avant garde with jazz -rock. Formy money, he is one of Europe's originals.

                      Yes I really liked that line-up, which was broadcast - I have a D90 of it. I always like when "free" players tackle standards, refreshing perspectives.

                            Which is completely unlike most of Moonchild's material - even though they're all jazzers this is the closest they get to the Tradition.

                              Miles Davis - Bitches Brew (disk 2)

                              I tend to listen to disk 1 much more - but this is still incredible.
