As I’ve already mentioned on the Comments Board for Destination Out 2/14/21, I was amazingly lucky back in college to have heard at the NYU Loeb Student Center a duet between Milford Graves and Andrew Cyrille (with an African percussion and dance troupe as the opening act). Latter on I heard MG at with Charles Gayle and again with John Zorn. The sounds from all these performances are still ringing in my ears. Forgive me for boasting a bit about my good luck. Very sad to have lost such an amazing musician and remarkable man Thanks to those at WFMU who have taken time to pay homage to MG.

Miss G:

Linda Lee, yes, I then went to a famous Southern university. I learned more about the "world" than I wanted to. In NYC, I only once had a tentative problem after walking home from Dave's Luncheonette, and so we banged on the doors of The Odeon yelling "he has it out! It! Out!" They let us in with a sneer to make a phone call. This music is matching my memories. *L*
  5:13pm
WM:

@ Miss G. Amazing! I too heard Nervus Rex and The Zantees at NYU Loeb Student Center. It was some kind of battle of the bands with another group I don’t remember. (Maybe The Fleshtones?) I guess you were in the audience too, or maybe one of the people dancing in front of the stage.

I should be serious during this Albert Ayler but it's so funny to have "old home week" with slugluv1313 and WM at the Loeb show, yes, The Fleshtones! I don't exactly remember, but I was usually the one to dance in the front. ..

As far as I'm concerned Sonny Sharrock's Black Woman is the most psychedelic album ever recorded.

@Miss G, @WM-- yes i think it was The Fleshtones?
i was at that show too, and now that you mention it, it WAS a battle of the bands -- i think Nervus Rex won???

seems it was warmer up in the catskills last weekend than it as here, Ken! wow. i thought to myself: i left those cold mountains for this ..?

slugluv1313 I think you're right, Nervus Rex won the battle of the bands. If I had an account I'd take a photo of my Nervus Rex 45". . .This Milford Graves with David Murray matches my icestorm outside.

WM don't want to start crying but thinking of past wFMU record fairs and sending out warm regards to Norton Records. LL yes! Dave's Luncheonette as the grandfather who was always there.

WM:

@Miss G: I’ll keep on bragging… The first time I heard Sonny Sharrock live was at CBGBs. He was the opening act for a band Deadline that featured Philip Wilson on drums. (Another musician who deserves to be better remembered.) I went to the show because I had heard that Robert Quine, one of my very favorite guitarists, was going be with Deadline. (He didn’t show up for some reason) I had never heard of SS. Deadline was good but it’s SS who sticks in my mind. He gave a great performance with drums and bass. I can still distinctly remember some of the riffs he played.

@Linda Lee -- turned out there was a leak in the boiler, so boiler/furnace for the building has to be replaced -- and on Monday afternoon, the heat was on for a bit, but then there was a power outage (transformer up the street exploded) which apparently knocked the whole system off -- oh joy!
