smokin' recommendation: Evan Parker's "TIME LAPSE"

Sorry, I didn't mean to upset you or go against your vast opinion based knowledge of music. But by posting "one of the most shockingly brilliant albums of solo sax I have ever heard", you are opening up quite a juggernaut.

"If you don't like it, fine."

I don't like it. How would you have me state that, since you apparentely didn't like my choice of the word awful?

Okay, it's not my cup of tea either. Does that make you feel better?

Mofi: There are a lot of different types of awful out there, but I bet this album isn't your garden variety. It would be interesting to hear a more in depth critique from a music lover such as yourself. If the sax comment got you then maybe you love jazz. If you love jazz then you probably love improvisation. Evan Parker is regarded as a master, whether you like it or not. I'm not recommending an unknown obscure jerk here. This is worth thinking about...if you want to. If not, don't!

Eslaudio: no one has to justify anything to me, of course. I thought it would spark an interesting discussion, that's all. No harm done.

Hey thanks for the recommendation. I'll definitely be checking it out and not just listening to a short clip of it either. I think you put out a fair warning when you said any fans of minimalism or free jazz would be interested. I really like Evan Parker and have quite a few of his albums. I'm looking forward to checking this one out.

Chashmal: I certainly do not condemn you for your taste. It just is not mine. I do like some free jazz, it is just that this is a bit too free :)
