Just wished the bluray was 4k (the cinema release was superb), but I suppose there’s only so much you can do to a film in poor light that’s 50 years old 
The FLK - Mummers. Well, been an excellent day’s listening, but this is the last for a while. Might as well go out in style.

Glorious galactic and earthly jazz from Arkestra alumni and leader plus a couple of Brit musos. Marshall Allen is 98 at the time of this recording. Another damn fine package too on Night Dreamer ‘live’ direct to acetate.
