THE MUSIC OF CECIL TAYLOR - addendum

-- Damon Short, February 1996
#########################
The following is a listing posted on Compuserve by Heinrich Lukas Lindenmaier in
January 1995, listing known CD releases by CT (from a European perspective). It's
presented unedited -- I've attempted to contact Mr. Lindenmaier for permission to
include this, but haven't heard from him, so if he objects, it may disappear; if he
doesn't, here it is, and thanks, Heinrich! (ds, 2/3/96) -- CECIL TAYLOR ON COMPACT-DISCS - Issue #1 (1995) compiled by Heinrich Lukas Lindenmaier --------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a listing of Compact-Disc productions with Cecil Taylor's music. All issues known so far have been included, regardless of origin. If you know of other or additional CD's, please drop a message on the CECIL TAYLOR board of Compuserve's Music&Arts forum; every contribution is welcome in order to have this listing updated periodically. The format for this listing is an alphanumerical sequence of catalogue numbers. Wherever appropriate, the company name is followed by the country of origin (in brackets), such as (CH) (Switzerland), (D) (Germany), (GB) (Great-Britain), (I) (Italy) (J) (Japan) etc. The years (in barackets) refer to recording dates, not to release dates. In case of re-issues, the very first original LP issue only is mentioned. ++ indicates additional material to previous LP issues. I would like to draw attentions to Damon Short's THE MUSIC OF CECIL TAYLOR, available as CECILT.ZIP from Compuserve's Music&Arts library. A lot of basic as well as additional information related to the following listing is to be found there.
