Joel Futterman - Interaction, a private press on JDF music. Some of the best Free jazz I've heard in a long time. Get this!

Happy birthday to the legend. Taken from us way too soon. RIP Marvin Gaye. You are missed.

Now spinning: Shamek Farrah & Sonelius Smith - A World Of Children on Strata-East from 1977. I can't tell you how much I dig the playing of Sonelius Smith & Milton Suggs on this record. Pure bliss. I was very happy to find this sealed reissue for a great price recently. #theworldofchildren #shamekfarrah #soneliussmith #miltonsuggs#josephgardner #kiyotofujiwara #freddiewrenn#tonywaters#strataeast #strataeastrecords #souljazz #raregroove #earthmusic #cratediggers #instavinyl #dmvdiggers #vinyljunkie #vinylporn #vinyligclub #nowspinning #vinyloftheday #vinylcollective #vinylcollectionpost #ditc #vinylcommunity #vinylofig #vinylbrotherhood

Joel Futterman & Robert Adkins - The End Is The Beginning a self-released private press from 1981. A fantastic duo record of piano and drums. Avant-garde and Free Jazz greatness. Heavy stuff. Don't hesitate if you see this one. #joelfutterman#robertadkins#privatepress #duoexchange #avantgarde #avantgardejazz#theendisthebeginning#cratediggers #vinyllove #instavinyl #vinylcollection #dustyfingers #vinylparty #vinyligclub #nowspinning #vinyloftheday #vinylcollective #vinylcollectionpost #ditc #vinylcommunity #vinylofig #vinylbrotherhood #dmvdiggers

Now spinning: The Lightman Plus One - Energy Control Center, a reissue on Lightin' Records. Lead by the drummer Bubba Thomas, this LP is a post bop, modal, soulful, funky and just enough weirdness thrown in masterpiece. Jupiter's Child and The Phantom are my cuts. #bubbhathomas#thelightmanplusone#energycontrolcenter#lightinrecords#houstontx#privatepress#souljazz #jazzrecord#postbop #modaljazz#jazzfunk#cratediggers #instavinyl #dmvdiggers #vinyljunkie #vinylporn #vinyligclub #nowspinning #vinyloftheday #vinylcollective #vinylcollectionpost #ditc #vinylcommunity #vinylofig #vinylbrotherhood

Now spinning: Nathen Page - Pageing Nathen, a private press on Hugo's Music from 1982. Really fantastic session. Dig that line-up! #nathenpage #hugosmusic#billyhart #kennybarron #busterwilliams #jazzguitar#dmvdiggers #vinyljunkie #vinylporn #vinyligclub #dustyfingers #nowspinning #vinyloftheday #vinylcollective #vinylcollectionpost #ditc #vinylcommunity #vinylofig #vinylbrotherhood

Now spinning: Noah Howard - At Judson Hall, a reissue on ESP Disk. Love the side 2 track Homage To Coltrane. Essential listening! #noahhoward #bobbykapp #daveburrell #riccolbeck #sirone #norrisjones #cathrinenorris#espdisk #atjudsonhall#freejazz #earthmusic #cratediggers #instavinyl #vinylcollection #dustyfingers #vinylcommunity #vinylcollectionpost #ditc #dmvdiggers #vinyljunkie #vinylporn #vinyligclub #dustyfingers

Back from the Cigar Lounge and now spinning: Dave Burrell - High on Douglas from 1968. Features Dave Burrell on Piano, Sunny Murray & Bobby Kapp on Drums, Pharoah Sanders on Tambourine & Norris (Sirone) Jones on Bass. Really dig the version of West Side Story on this, a lot more out there than most versions as one might imagine with this line up. This one had been on my wantlist for years, but for some reason had been eluding me in the field until recently. Buy this if you see it! #daveburrell#sirone#bobbykapp#norrisjones #sunnymurray#pharoahsanders #high#douglasrecords#freejazz #earthmusic #cratediggers #instavinyl #dmvdiggers #vinyljunkie #vinylporn #vinyligclub #dustyfingers #vinylcommunity #vinylcollectionpost #ditc #vinylbrotherhood

Now spinning for 45 Sundays. Gil Scott-Heron & Brian Jackson - The Bottle on Strata East records from 1974. This is the rare French press picture sleeve.

Musing on one of my favorite bass players ever Cecil Mcbee.

Switching gears to Freddie Hubbard's monster on CTI, Red Clay. The title track is insane, as is the whole record.

Now spinning Arthur Blythe's solo debut the grip on India Navigation from 1977. Very eclectic sounding. Blythe is such an underrated player, a master of his instrument. This one is a must. #arthurblythe #indianavigation #thegrip#abdulwadud#bobstewert#ahmedabdullah #stevereid#muhamadabdullah#mysonra#dmvdiggers #freejazz #earthmusic #cratediggers #instavinyl #vinylcollection #dustyfingers #nowspinning #vinylcollective #vinylcollectionpost #ditc #vinylcommunity #vinyljunkie
