From Bagatellen:

Giuseppi Logan – Quartet (ESP-Disk’)
Until resurfacing with the aid of Brooklyn pastor Dr. Bill Jones, reedman Giuseppi Logan was, like Henry Grimes, one of the lost enigmas of contemporary improvisation. Born in Norfolk, Virginia in 1935, Logan studied at the New England Conservatory and worked in a notable but unrecorded Bill Dixon group with Rashied Ali, drums; […]

Recently, tenorman Kalaparusha employed Jesse Dulman in his trio with drummer Ravish Momin. Tubaist Ben Stapp recorded with Lisbon-based […]
