Thanks for the link to the NYT piece on Jack, Vinnie.

There were actually two more ECM's from him [which Manfred hasn't released on CD]: 'Untitled' & 'New Rags', both with John Abercrombie, Alex Foster, sax & Warren Bernhardt on keyboards. I saw the album launch of the former in September, '76 @ the VV. I'll never forget it-when the lights came on after the 1st set, every drummer in NYC was there! Roy, Elvin, Bobo Shaw, etc, etc. Charlie Haden sat in on bass in the 3rd set. Great times!

Thanks for bringing attention to Jack,Elvin, Blackwell, Williams et al. Re ECM Dejohnette, I'm partial to New Directions with Lester Bowie, John Abercrombie and Eddie Gomez, particularly the track "Sleepy Hollow".
