Well there are a few albums (Sextant and his Mwandishi albums) who would deserve inclusion , but this goes for Miles Davis also
A can of worm the Archives are not ready yet to open  ------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

can we add Hancock (and his huge jazz discography and his playing in the MD quintet) without adding Miles Davis Himself >> I am in favor of Miles and I think miles should get precedence to Hancock
A can of worm we (the Archives) are not ready for just now. IMHO------------- let's just stay above the moral melee prefer the sink to the gutter keep our sand-castle virtues content to be a doer as well as a thinker, prefer lifting our pen rather than un-sheath our sword |

I think he made very Interesting electric jazz, very progressive sometimes.
Also like Chick Corea should be in the archives  .------------- Learning Flute [Amigo de Manticore y Memowakeman] (primo)[IMG]http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2187/2437702285_fbb450500d_o.jpg |

| I'm sure our jazz expert Dick Heath had a view on this. If I recall correctly, he has said in previous threads that he does not think HH should be added. |

Sean Trane is damn right... Miles Davis is the "protagonist" of the whole genre (along with Mahavishnu, Weather Report and Return to Forever, which are all in the Archives) and deserves a big salute... yet, as Trane suggested, he (like Mr. Hancock) has such a huge discography (despite his 5 year retirement from music, just in time of the Prog heyday!) that we ( I mean each one of us!) may not easily handle it...
I believe we have to find a way to deal with it, otherwise great albums (Bitches Brew, Sextant, Head Hunters to name a few from the aforementioned) just go unnoticed, unless you bump inbto them in forum or elsewhere... Maybe a special "commission" may evaluate the 100+ records, and elect 20 something proggier of them, to feature here... (the same should have been done for Beatles and so on!!!) ------------- Listen to Turkish psych/prog; you won't regret: Baris Manco,Erkin Koray,Cem Karaca,Mogollar,3 Hürel,Selda,Edip Akbayram,Fikret Kizilok,Ersen (and Dadaslar) (but stick with the '70's, and 'early 80's!) |
