No worries- £10 is a rare bargain in the gig world so I'm sure you'll enjoy it even more. Plus you could end up being part of the Wildflower history if they press a recording of the gig

Im fortunate enough go to quite a few gigs each year with my girlfriend, and the smaller gigs are almost always as memorable if not more than the bigger ones. I think the small enclosed venue works really well, especially with jazz. Really looking forward to this now. Theres been loads of Ill Considered gigs that I have missed out on because it was an awkward location to get to. This one seems like it should be quite easy to get home after, and with it being a friday the trains will be running late. Thanks again buddy!No worries- £10 is a rare bargain in the gig world so I'm sure you'll enjoy it even more.

It would be pretty cool for them to record the live session for sure!

Cheers for the tag! Managed to get in on the white lable in time as they're now down to 35 copies.
Was coming to share this with you guys, @scotthilk just shared this link with me. Seems to be an interesting work. Makaya also produced French trumpetist Antoine Berjeaut new album Moving Cities. Record is out on Friday.
Bridging the spaces between the Paris and Chicago scenes, Moving Cities brings together the best of both worlds. Initiated by French trumpet player Antoine Berjeaut and Chicago-based drummer/producer Makaya McCraven (along with a cast including bassist Junius Paul and saxophonist Julien Lourau), Moving Cities is emblematic of a new, utterly modern jazz going through a true aesthetic revolution. Moving Cities started as a live laboratory set up by Berjeaut and McCraven; it echoes the recent evolution of international metropolises constantly torn between individualism and collective endeavors, in a disrupted geography.
Sadly, I’m not very familiar with the French musicians (which is a real pity) but it even includes Junius Paul. And reading about the project got me hooked.Was coming to share this with you guys, @scotthilk just shared this link with me. Seems to be an interesting work.

I might have to pick this one up!
Thanks for sharing.
Me neither. The French jazz scene isn't very big actually but I can see it growing if the musicians start collaborating with big names like Makaya.
So, where’s the Balades Sonores sclusie?

I have the same Art Blakey pressing. It’s actually one if the rarest pressings. The films controversy meant it was banned from being exported outside of France until a year later. Somehow a small number were pressed in the uk at the same time as the french pressing, with a still from the film used as the cover photo. I always find it gets overlooked in favour of the monk album but I actually prefer Blakey’s.

Bit of a random post but this interview with Robert Glasper is fantastic, hilarious, and he raises some really great points. I have never heard Glasper be interviewed in this kind of relaxed environment before and hes just so likable. Within 30 seconds I guarantee he will have made you laugh. I wont spoil it too much, but he makes a fantastic point about how he has met Herbie Hancock and Stevie Wonder, and if those guys can be cool, why cant Lauryn Hill seem to be?

Don't sure it will happen
This is not their main business, what they did so far is doing Tidal Waves Music (like many other companies) and Wewantsounds (Parisian label) variants. I am not sure they want to concentrate their efforts in this business.

If any of you use Spotify its the breakdowns of the year today. Turns out I listen to Miles......a lot.
It happens that listening to Penguin Cafe a lot while working during the last couple of month turned them into my AOTY.

Thats interesting. Similar thing happened to me, I must have drilled Daniel Norgrens single when it first came out as 'The Flow' was my single of the year.
