Playlist, Week of 2024-07-14

Enjoyed checking out a younger, definitely energetic band with the New Loft session with bassist Pat Lawrence... I made some notes for an in-depth examination of Anthony Braxton's Echo Echo Mirror House music a while back... maybe someday I'll flesh them out, but I'll just say now the 2011 NYC version of it is the strongest... The 1963 John Coltrane Stuttgart "Mr. PC" is over a half-hour long... after a lengthy bass solo, which, okay, then Trane comes in for a good 17- or 18-minute solo that reminds me of Interstellar Space...
