I saw Scott Johnson do this piece at New Music America in DC in 1984 (?) and it was a pretty excellent work of its time, and I remember being amazed when it was released on Nonesuch a little later. "Scott Johnson is one of new music's great originals, ...

"Released briefly on the Nonesuch label in 1988, and unavailable for years, Scott Johnson’s score for the Paul Schrader film on Patty Hearst was one of his greatest achievements. Deliriously complex and remarkably colorful, the music is a further...

Simplicity & clarity have always been among Johnson's chief concerns. That led him to research number theory. This features all 8178 chords possible in one octave! [Experimental Intermedia]

This is a utterly fantastic album that I was very interested in...

“Johnston’s soundtrack adds an extra dimension to the 2D-nature of the animation, with energetic jazz layered over the pre-recorded percussion track that builds up and flows through the film. While Johnston and Reineger’s compositions are each complex in their own ways, they come together simply and beautifully...

''Songs about a dog...This bizarre home-recorded gem offers a very private glimpse into the world of a mysterious woman from Japan known simply as Jon. Her strange childlike vocals and pump organ charm and enthrall on their own terms; Jon's fresh appro...

"And now, this is alto saxophonist/composer Darius Jones' highly anticipated second recording as a bandleader, and it delivers in killin' fashion. Big Gurl (Smell My Dream) presents the next chapter of his ongoing Man'ish Boy series of compositions...

“Raw Demoon Alchemy (A Lone Operation) harnesses the gamut of raw, unadulterated emotions — suppressed feelings that we’ve all been allowed to “feel” again in the wake of a global pandemic. Born out of a live performance in fall 2019, during the last stop of his tour in Portland, OR, saxophonist Darius Jones renders a solo effort that evokes sadness, rage, and confusion, all the while still holding for glimmers of hope for the future.
With four of its five tracks on Alchemy, Jones selects...

"The intergenerational partnership of alto saxophonist Darius Jones and pianist Matthew Shipp seamlessly meshes the talents of two of the most restlessly inventive and gifted instrumentalists-composers-improvisers-leaders working today. This singular...

On this interesting but unfortunately out of print LP, the immortal drummer Elvin Jones teams up with four advanced but very different improvisers: Dave Liebman (doubling on soprano and flute), cornetist Terumasa Hino, pianist Kenny Kirkland and bassis...

"Glenn Jones is a unique voice working in the decades-long tradition of American primitivism. What sets him apart from the many devotees to this style is the combination of expressive playing and technical skill, most significantly his inventive use of...

“Trumpeter Sean Jones takes another step in his continuing development as a frontman and formidable presence on the modern jazz scene...an excellent and highly appealing outing...”-Jazztimes

“For his fifth recording on the Mack Avenue label, trumpeter Sean Jones has really stepped up his game as a composer of contemporary jazz music. He's raised the stakes by writing music that still reflects his love for hard bop, but has intensified it with a more intricate and involved thought process that...

Some of this COULD be a CHEER-ACCIDENT album. Some of it is much sparser and 3am solitude music, as Thymme says.

“The highly unanticipated followup to Career Move (1996)! Maybe as melancholic… same piano/same voice… sometimes with more instruments… but mostly just piano. 3am solitude music.”

“piano, vocals, drums, trumpet, synthesizer by thymme; bass and background vocals on "in some fictional place" are by dante kester and lori lechien, respectively; viola on "final meditation (again)"..

Really nice, Steve Reich-ian solo album by the leader of Cheer-Accident.

"Five piano “quartets” (recorded on 4-track) with hypnotically intertwining phrases."

"About half of this two-record set (now on 1 CD) features Janis Joplin with Big Brother & the Holding Company in 1968, performing songs like "Down on Me" and "Piece of My Heart." The rest, recorded in 1970, finds her with her backup group, Full Tilt Boogie, mostly performing songs from I Got Dem Ol' Kozmic Blues Again Mama! Joplin puts herself out on-stage, both in terms of singing until her voice is raw and describing her life to her audiences. Parts of this album are moving, parts are heartbreaking...
