Final one... I think this was shared (in a different edit, this is my own) over on inconstantsol a while ago which made me hold this back, but rather than just seing the links go, maybe there's someone who's missed this before, so here it is again:

Paul Bley & Wolfgang Puschnig - Saalfelden
Another one endangered of deletion before I come around posting it...
Canadian born pianist Paul Bley is of course well known as one of the most important jazz pianists to emerge around 1960.
Saxophonist Wolfgang Puschnig hails from Austria and is one of the more important jazz voices there and in Europe. He has played and recorded regularly with Carla Bley, the Vienna Art Orchestra, Linda Sharrock or the late great Ernst Jandl (or was that Elnst Jandr?). Other collaborators include Hans Koller (subject of two other posts here and here), Harry Sokal (the photo from 1988 shows Puschnig with him), Uli Scherrer, Nguyên Lê, Mark Feldman, and reguarly also Jamaaladeen Tacuma (together they form the duo "Gemini-Gemini"), and he has done more than two dozen of albums as leader or co-leader, including the great "Austrian Songs - Ob'n und Unt'n" (Universal, 2002) where he adapted traditional songs and melodies for a trio/quartet that also included Klaus Dickbauer, Herbert Joos and Michel Godard.
In short: definitely a musician worth checking out!
And right here you get the chance to do so...

ScoLoHoFo - Lugano 2002
This was up here before, more exactly in August 2007 (gee, it's been a long time since I've started this blog!) - and I've been asked to share it again many months ago... the links went up so long back that I'm afraid if I don't share them, they get deleted, so finally...
Just be aware that this is a mono recording - less than perfect to some's ears, I assume. Not a big issue for me, but just so it's been disclosed!
Btw, it seems the group played Jazzbaltica, too - does anyone have a video of audio of that to offer? In the quality standard of the blog, it ought to be DVD (off a digi-sat broadcast in original codec would be perfect!) or FLAC, if possible! Drop me a line (see my profile) if you need help sharing it!
And those who grab this recording right here, please do help with the setlist!

Hans (Antonio Hans Cyrill) Koller (February 12, 1921 - December 22, 2003) was one of the best known Austrian Jazz musicians and an abstract painter.
Koller was born in Vienna. A saxophone prodigy, he immediately impressed the faculty of the Vienna Music Academy upon his arrival at the age of 14. Within a few years he was playing professionally in swing and dance bands. In 1941 Koller was drafted into the Nazi army and spent most time as prisoner of war in a US-American camp. Following his release in 1946 he founded a band called the Hot Club Vienna.
Later Koller performed with Horst Winter's band before moving to Germany, where he came into his own individual style. After some time working in drummer Freddie Brocksieper's septet, Koller formed his quartet with pianist Jutta Hipp, bassist Shorty Roeder and drummer Karl Sanner. The group was one of Europe's most popular units in the early 1950s (recording Hans Is Hip, 1952; "5 stars" by Down Beat). Trombonist Albert Mangelsdorff became member of his band in 1953. In 1959 his quartet included guitarist Attila Zoller and two US-American expatriates, drummer Kenny Clarke and bassist Oscar Pettiford, were members of the quartet.
Koller had frequent contact with American jazzmen beginning with arranger Eddie Sauter, with whom he worked in the Baden-Baden Radio Orchestra. Gigs followed with Zoot Sims, Dizzy Gillespie, Lee Konitz, Stan Kenton, and even Benny Goodman, with whom Koller played at the 1958 World's Fair in Brussels. That same year he became the musical director of Radio Hamburg's Jazz Workshop. He was acclaimed best soloist at the 1960 jazz festival Antibes.
His trio recording with Zoller and French pianist Martial Solal, brought Koller further critical acclaim. He occasionally worked on interdisciplinary projects as well, like his 1968 ballet, New York City. Koller was based in Hamburg through the 1960s, working as musical director of the municipal theatre in 1968/1969. In 1970 he returned to Austria and began exploring free jazz and fusion music with Zbigniew Seifert in his Free Sound Ensemble. Koller's subsequent projects included a trio with Zoller and Roland Hanna, soloing a brass ensemble International Brass Company, different duos, mainstream combos, and an all-sax unit.
Koller retired from performing music in 1995, opting to concentrate on painting. In gratitude for his years of service, Austria named its national jazz prize after him in 1996.

comment from SAMMLER_KK:
The "JAZZ NOW!" Festival took place in Munich during four days in August 1972 as part of the art program of the Olympic Games. The program was organized by Joachim Ernst Berendt:
- Aug.17, Kongreß-Saal (Deutsches Museum) "Rock and Jazz NOW!" (John McLaughlin's Mahavishnu Orchestra, Niemen, Charles Mingus Group)
- Aug.18, Kongreß-Saal (Deutsches Museum) "Africa NOW!" (Ginger Baker's African Salt, Art Blakey and his Orgies in Rhythm)
- Aug.19, HERKULES-SAAL "Solo NOW!" (Mangelsdorff, Burton, Corea, Ponty, McLaughlin)
- Aug.20, Herkules-Saal "Groups NOW!" (Association P.C., CTI Olympic Jazz w/Ester Phillips, Freddie Hubbard, Stanley Turrentine ..., Jackie Cain & Roy Kral)

This source appeared to be running quite fast, causing the pitch to be approx. 58 cents sharp. That's now been remedied.
Please share this goody-fied edition from now on. Thank you! And thanks to 'blackforest' for his original torrent, upon which this upgrade is based.
It's always an honor for me to place these things back out in the world in better shape than that in which they've been circulating; certain sets originally played by inspirational musicians who have especially influenced much of my playing. John McLaughlin has definitely been one of those. The records he made around this time were among those most replayed by a very impressionable young goody.
Great to pass this one along now, now playing at the correct speed, properly in tune.

Ikue Mori & Zeena Parkins - Zürich 2005
Next one from the dime series - their disc "Phantom Orchard" gets the ubu seal of approval, too! The Mego label (used to be under www.mego.at) has gone belly-up in 2005, but there's a successor label - they yet need to reissue "Phantom Orchard" though...)
: . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . : . :
This is one of my own audience recordings, in quite ok sound.
I deleted the applause since it disrupted the musical flow (It felt that way already during the concert).
The concert was one of the more amazing ones among those I witnessed... Zeena Parkins is great, she went from sitting there like a classical performer to rocking around like some hardrock guitar player, changing between a regular harp and an electronic one, as well as a glockenspiel and some electronics...
Ikue Mori, as usual, sat behind her i-book, rather motionless, which I dislike in concert settings... I like the optical aspect as well as the musical, and those concerts I saw that were of the "eai" kind, I usually found boring just because there was nothing "going on" in a physical/motional way.
Anyway, I have fond memories of this, and I also enjoy the duo's official release, "Phanton Orchard", quite a lot!
I don't think I've shared this show before, so I hope there'll be some interest!

Sun Ra Arkestra - Zurich 2009
This was one hell of a great experience! Not sure yet how well it translates to a recording, but you can check that out yourself!
My antique MD-recorder stopped its duties halway through the second set (which means we won't hear the awesome alto feature - for he who likely is Knoel Scott - on "Body and Soul", a pity, but I can't help it). See my notes below for more info...
Please help with the identification of the musicians and with the setlist!
First up, my notes:
Notes:
I recorded from the first row, left of the center (in front of Marshall Allen, to his left was the piano, to the right the other reeds (l.t.r.: ts/as/bari). In the second row to the right were tp/tb, in the back row g/d/perc
The first set I recorded in mono.
As more than half of my MD was full by the time of the break, I switched to LP4 for the second set, but of then the problems began... the left channel of the recording is dead, the beginning is marred by dropouts, and halway into the second set, for whatever reason, my recording stopped... and we're missing a glorious "Body and Soul" performed by the alto player that is not Allen... pity!
Even though I didn't change the levels, the second set was recorded too loud and seems to be clipped.
Some dropouts towards the end of Set1#8... and there may be some dropouts I haven't noticed and hence not deleted, sorry.
Bassist Juni Booth got lost in space, bass duties were assumed by the pianist.
As for the remaining line-up:
Allen is of course confirmed, so are Nascimento and Yah Yah (the former answered my question as to who the great tenor sax player was).
The others are taken from the flyer, which listed two trumpet players and also Charles Davis who didn't make the tour according to Elson. Further, Art Jenkins (voc/perc) was also listed.
I took two photos, not good ones, but they as well as my photos (no scanner at home) of the flyer are included.
Marshall Allen took most of the alto solos, his are the free ones, while the other alto sax player did some marvellous boppish soloing.
Allen plays most of the flute solo parts, but some are played by the baritone sax player (Yah Yah only played flute in ensembles).
Allen plays clarinet in the second set only.
The musicians left the stage playing at the end of the first set (with Yah Yah staying behind and leaving last), and entered playing at the beginning of the first set. In #8 of the first set, bari/tb/Yah Yah (perc) paraded through the audience.
As for the band, some dimers were very helpful and the setlist below is improved compared to the one you'll get in the tags of the files!

ICP Orchestra - Willisau 2001
Next of the dime series - thanks to dimer hugotruyens for help with the setlist.
I think this was the very first ICP and Mengelberg I've heard. Saw them live once in a glorious concert, but alas my recording device failed that night. It was one of the most enriching concerts I've seen, with wonderful contributions by the amazing Michael Moore (whom I caught with Jewels & Binoculars a few days later, that night my recording went ok for one set at least...), and Tobias Delius and Bennink. The brass did great on the Ellington tunes that night (some such in this show, too), and there was some hilarious stuff from the strings (Honsinger surely is a crazy old man - in the very best sense!). Anyway, this is a bit older and a bit more restrained compared to the concert I witnessed, but it's fine nevertheless!

Dave Liebman / Dave Holland / Jon Christensen - Genève 1989
Here's this weekend's (first?) jazz offering, another marvellous show I got from dime. As it was shared, there were short announcements over most of the applause between the songs, and it came in the small (but not that handy, I find) MP2 format. I converted it and cleaned it up by adding quick fades and deleting the moderator. A glorious show such as this I want to hear without any distraction!
For those interested, here's an earlier show by Dave Liebman and Ellery Eskelin's quartet, the link's still good.

Stanley Cowell - Verona 2008
Here's the Stanley Cowell solo show that has been request by swboy - glad to oblige as I'm in a mellow mood and it's a small show and was a quick upload...
I'm afraid I can't say anything about the music as I haven't played it yet... comments on dime were pretty euphoric though, and people seem to think this is much better than any official solo release by Cowell.

I'm afraid I can't say anything about the music as I haven't played it yet... comments on dime were pretty euphoric though, and people seem to think this is much better than any official solo release by Cowell.

Cedar Walton "Eastern Rebellion" - Boston 1995
Here's the first of the dime birthday party-shows, I'll post those mostly with the same comments I put up on dime, just because I'm a lazy bum, he he... so here you go:
Another edited re-seed, this was was shared originally by dsgtrane - thanks a lot!
Now there's much bad rap about the French radio announcers and their talking, but no one beats NPR! This was Branford Marsalis, and he kept fading in the new titles while wrapping up his announcements. So the openings of most titles are cut by a tiny bit. Still, this is a fine show, and with all the talk in between, I'd never listen to it.... I did the best I could, under the circumstances.

Silly - Ayler
Sorry for the long silence, but after the frantic period of posting all those Freddie Hubbard shows, it just seems like I needed a little break.
This post won't change much, rather it's silly... for a long time I thought I should have Albert Ayler's Ghosts as a ringtone on my cell phone, finally I did it, and I thought why not share it here, he he.
As for how it will go on here, I've got all the requested dime-party shows up on my RS-account now, will post the first one later today!
