I'll be grazing here and there in the Spotify playlist for the next few days -- listing to Noah Howard now.

Alright, I give in - who is this John Coltrane guy who keeps popping up? Another obscure experimental funk ilx favorite?

That is the 10th Coltrane album to appear in the countdown

I'd be interested to see at the end who turns up on the most albums without having an album of their own on the list (i.e., which sidemen are most prominent).

ron carter or maybe billy higgins

i never gave birth of the cool a chance either. was put off by the music. nefertiti otoh is amazing.
― sonderangerbot, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 15:26 (fourteen years ago)
Birth of the Cool is straight classic except for the final track with the vocal, which sorta ruins the mood imho

― A True White Kid that can Jump (Granny Dainger), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 15:38 (fourteen years ago)
yeah I would think it's gonna be either a drummer (philly joe jones? elvin?) or a bass player (def Ron)

― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 15:57 (fourteen years ago)
huh thought Crescent might be the one that superhip jazzbos might place higher than love supreme or something. classic record, i voted for it. also voted for love supreme though.

listening to crescent for the first time right now, very nice. softer than most of the quartet stuff i've heard.
― sonderangerbot, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:02 (fourteen years ago)
Crescent was my top Coltrane pick.
― The Not Liking Radiohead Awards (Turangalila), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:03 (fourteen years ago)
John, that is. :)
yeah crescent is perfect, super moody, even for coltrane. lonnie's lament is my fave i think.
― tylerw, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:04 (fourteen years ago)
Was expecting to see Tauhid place higher than that. Some great Sonny Sharrock stuff on that one.
― Geirge Hongriot (NickB), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:06 (fourteen years ago)
I'm learning a lot in this thread. For instance, had no idea that Clifford Jarvis worked outside of Sun Ra's groups.

#9 of the poll for mr ra
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:24 (fourteen years ago)
has sun ra been sampled a lot/anywhere?

11th for Mr Coltrane
MF Doom, Wooden Shjips... I'm sure there's others
― satisfying punishment for that thing he said about lesbians (Shakey Mo Collier), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:45 (fourteen years ago)
i bet every other record in this poll has been sampled to shit
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:51 (fourteen years ago)
Doubt anyone has ever sampled Noah Howard's The Black Ark, though that would be fucking awesome. I'm glad other people voted for it.
― The Not Liking Radiohead Awards (Turangalila), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 16:53 (fourteen years ago)
Crescent rating lower than Stellar Regions is kinda crazy. Only 8 votes? I wouldn't rate it his best, but definitely in his top 4-5.

Me too.
― The Not Liking Radiohead Awards (Turangalila), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 17:05 (fourteen years ago)
that's how tough culling my ballot was when that monk album didn't make my 100
― Armand Schaubroeck Ratfucker, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 17:07 (fourteen years ago)
― Fastnbulbous, Wednesdayreally? i always thought crescent was very nice but not exceptional, and they're not really comparable, but for my money i LOVE stellar regions....i didn't vote but i'da voted for just about any Monk, Rollins or ornette, and zero ra (who i useda listen to pretty extensively). who cares
― quaff the spud you warbling milkbag (outdoor_miner), Wednesday, 31 August 2011 17:12 (fourteen years ago)
I thought i voted for 3 or 4 ra but i musta cut 3 as i only had 1 on my ballot in the end

would love to see "thelonious himself" place. not looking likely now after two of his more celebrated records have already made it.

tbh that is shockingly low
― sonderangerbot, Wednesday, 31 August 2011 17:43 (fourteen years ago)
I like that one, but Journey in Satchidananda is superior imho. UC has some more dissonant/out there moments, I guess.
