Yep, I agree. But um, let's try to keep that under wraps, shall we?
When Cornell 1964 was released of Charles Mingus Sextet it got critical raves last year. Then, all these other great soundboards from the '64 tour (mostly the European) (Dolphy's last hurrah, of course) started going around the net. In my local record store there's now several of the '64 dates with artwork and everything and the cds are going for 30.00 a pop. Looks like they've sold a few from the last time I was there too.
Oh, and I haven't seen the Chapter 27 movie about that nutcase, MDC. Not much interest really.
