Marion Brown: Vista (1975)


Alto saxophonist Marion Brown is an under-sung hero of the jazz avant-garde. Committed to discovering the far-flung reaches of improvisational expression, Brown nonetheless is possessed of a truly lyrical voice but is largely ignored when discussions of free jazz of the '60s and '70s are concerned. ~ Thom Jurek, All Music Guide

is the brown still up? i just checked and megaupload is saying that it's not there.

i've become a big brown fan in the past few months and this is one i've been eager to hear. (playing stevie wonder?!)

Nunne said...

Brent, that is strange. I just checked it and the download worked like a charm!

387.5 Mb.? Are you sure? Is it possible? Why so much? Is it in FLAC format?

Nunne said...

I've tried numerous times to download this, but the download time is sometimes up to four hours. Is it due to the size of the file? Is there another way?

Simon666 said...

Michael, it's a big file because it's CD quality. This is a good thing.

Hi Nunne,
I’ve linked to your page in my post of Bartz – Henderson – Connors – “Live at Nemu Jazz Inn” (1975).
All the best,
Simon from Never Enough Rhodes
