Here is where I post, at a frequency of about once a week, a list of the new music that has caught my attention that week. All of the releases listed below I’ve heard for the first time this week and come recommended.

Joe Maneri / Peter Dolger – Peace Concert (1964, free jazz)
Critters Buggin’ – Stampede (2004, experimental)
RIDD Quartet – Fiction Avalanche (2008, creative jazz)
Marion Brown – Why Not? (1966, free jazz)
Kurt Rosenwinkel – East Coast Love Affair (1996, jazz)
Burning Star Core – Operator Dead… Post Abandoned (2007, experimental noise)
Tony Malaby – Warblepeck (2008, creative jazz)
Dave Stapleton – Catching Sunlight (2008, modern composition)
