Skokiaan present a reissue of Sonny Murray's Sonny's Time Now, originally released in 1965. Only a few months after recording Ghosts (SKOK 001CD, 1965) with Albert Ayler, Sonny Murray released his first album as a leader. Sonny's Time Now is one of the holy grails for collectors and aficionados of free avant garde jazz music from the 1960s. This 2016 vinyl reissue is the first vinyl reissue of the album in 30 years. The last CD reissue was in 1991. Albert Ayler and his Ghosts album from 1965 was already a hard thing to swallow, except for the most adventurous explorers of the furthest corners of the border districts of music. An unconventional view on onomatopoeia is necessary to enter this world and drummer Sonny Murray went another step ahead on Sonny's Time Now. The lengthy piece "Virtue" presents an ever pulsating wall of rhythm that sounds like a wuthering ocean with the horn section going nuts on top. The saxes and trumpets are constantly erupting and it is a challenge for the listener to find the melodies among their output of sound. "Justice", another lengthy piece divided into two parts, continues the quest "Virtue" began. The atmosphere of these free improvisations slowly swallows the listener and the shrieks of the saxophones and trumpets, frees souls from physical bodies. What feels like an impenetrable thicket of sound at first is soon enlightening and a memorable structure within all the chaos. The same year that John Coltrane took the last step away from traditional jazz and music in general, this album was equally as radical but seems to have disappeared within the depths of music history. The most radical piece on this record comes with the shorter "Black Art", a writing by activist and controversial poet Amiri Baraka read by LeRoy Jones and underlined with freak-out eruptions from Sonny Murray and his mates. This is the right soundtrack for a cathartic meditation. For a must have for fans of Coltrane. "The Lie" is not featured on the original release.

1.1 Virtue (11:07)

Upsize
Color: Pink, Size: XX-Large
Knowing to upsize before I bought the shirt was a good thing to know. Otherwise, it is a very nice shirt

No flaws, not high end
Color: Pink, Size: Medium
I nabbed this for my in shape 14 year old son who had an upcoming wrestling banquet. It fit very true to size for him however as a low-mid grade dress shirt it had little flex or mobility across the chest and that’s ok, this is an entry level dress shirt and perfect for this and similar events. The color was vibrant and well saturated, and the fabric itself was thin enough for some transparency but thick enough to be considered medium weight. It would not be a cooling dress shirt. It did not have a soft hand, rather a sturdy rougher feel akin to a dress shirt a restaurant server would wear and laundry frequently which is also ok because it is exactly what a polo in this range should be. If you are looking for a flexible chest and soft touch you will need a better fabric blend and you pay a lot more for that. The buttons were nice and collar looked good. I would recommend this for any average event or occasion or even for work. If you are looking to impress on an interview or a date or during high heat you might need to look elsewhere. For what it is it’s perfect. Buyer and shirt need to remember this and keep it in its shirt lane.

Good shirt, not great, but it was never trying to be
Color: Navy Blue, Size: Medium
Let’s start with the fabric. The 50/50 cotton-polyester blend sounds like a compromise, and I suppose it is — but it’s a good one. You get enough cotton to feel like an actual shirt and enough polyester to keep things from turning into a sweat tent in the heat. It holds its shape after washing. No complaints. The collar is a genuine highlight. The pin tips keep the points flat and symmetrical, which is a small thing until you’ve owned a shirt where the collar curls after two washes. You’ll notice it. There’s also a hidden plaid print under the collar — a subtle detail that’s only visible when unbuttoned. Unnecessary, but charming. Fit is true to size. Order what you normally order. It’s versatile enough to tuck in for the office or wear loose on the weekend. Not going to replace your best Oxford. But at this price, it was never trying to.

No bleed through of t-shirt color beneath. Very hard to achieve, but Alimens does it.
Size: X-Large, Color: All White
At the price point of this shirt, i'm super impressed with the overall quality, fit and appearance. I have had short sleeve white from others in the past and what sets this apart from them is this ... this needs no t-shirt underneath. if you did choose to add a t-shirt, the t-shirt color will not bleed through the white optics. I am daily shirt and tie guy, who loves button downs. I own many VH brand shirts and this Oxford is sized exactly as a VH. Will be ordering more!!
