Brazen Heart Live at Jazz Standard - Complete
by Dave Douglas Quintet 2015
supported by 6 fans who also own “Island Man”
Yes,yes,yes! I've been waiting for Dave to do this again...two brilliant runs by DDQ and Keystone were documented on Greenleaf back in the day; they were groundbreaking...recorded and released within 24 hours for each set...they were stellar performances and I play them again and again. With absolutely no chance of ever being there, this is the closest i'll ever be to 'being there'...so excited I may need to lay down in a darkened room for a while!

The Anthony Braxton Project
by Thumbscrew [Tomas Fujiwara / Mary Halvorson / Michael Formanek]
supported by 5 fans who also own “Island Man”
I am not surprised at how good this is. Thumbscrew are terrific and Anthony Braxton's music is always interesting and moving in different directions. I can not stop listening to this. The recording itself is so well done. It is a deep sound to crawl inside.

So much fun and joy and swing, and the instrumentation allows for some super-fresh sounds as well as some old-timey goodness. And simply great tunes too!
