John Tchicai and Cadentia Nova Danica - Afrodisiaca (MPS, 1969).

First side is the almost unbelievable 22 minutes title-track, with the large ensemble Cadentia Nova Danica led by trumpet player/composer Hugh Steinmetz.

Side 2 is just as great smaller group numbers.

A masterpiece featured in Thurston Moore's 'Top Ten Free Jazz Underground' records.

The Dave Pike Set : Noisy Silence - Gentle Noise (MPS Records, 1969).

I particularly like the tripped-out track Mathar with Volker Kriegel on sitar but the rest of the album is really nice too.

Back in the music room after a week away 😊

Recorded live on German radio, two long tracks from Taylor with Raphé Malik, Jimmy Lyons, Ramsey Ameen, Sirone and Ronald Shannon Jackson.

Beyond awesome.
