Darius Jones - "Legend of e'Boi (The Hypervigilant Eye)” (2024): Jones explores black community mental health with one more intense, overwhelming and sonically penetrating album. Ch. Lightcup (bass) with G. Cleaver complement the unrelenting interplay. Fascinating! **** #jazz

Folks, @nyrbclassics is having a weekend sale on noir and noir-adjacent titles and if you're looking for some suggestions, here are 4 of mine! Really tough to narrow it down, you can't go wrong with hardly any of the selections.

On this day in 1958, Art Kane photographed 57 musicians at 17 East 126th Street for Esquire magazine. It was a Great Day in Harlem, 66 years ago today. #SonnyRollinsBridge

This is gobsmackingly great! Ornette Coleman Group live in Berlin 1971. Ornette, Dewey Redman, Charlie Haden and Ed Blackwell firing on all cylinders. Sound is pretty great, image pretty good too. Uploaded yesterday, but I only discovered it an hour ago. youtube.com/watch?v=ASMOCAaU…

I mean, the entire architecture of every human expected to be acquiring and financing and maintaining and insuring and operating safely a $50k deadly weapon that randomly gets destroyed – really exposes some… problems.

I am a fan-It is with great sadness that James Cohan shares news of the death of Bill Viola, one of the world’s leading video artists. He passed away peacefully at home on July 12, at the age of 73. The cause was Alzheimer’s Disease.
