Art Pepper- Meets The Rhythm Section (1957)- ****
Moacir Santos- Coisas (1965)- ***1/2
Jules Shear- Between Us (1998)- ***1/2
Little Ann- Detroit's Secret Soul (2019)-  ***

Stimulators- Loud Fast Rules! (1980)- ***
(I watched "Wired for Chaos," the documentary on Harley Flanagan. It's a fantastic film that I don't think you need to be a fan of The Cro-Mags or hardcore punk to enjoy, though I am a fan of both. It put me in the mood for this record, where Harley, at 12 years ago, is kicking ass on drums...if you like this sort of thing. But, I highly recommend "Wired For Chaos" to anyone who is a fan of documentaries, regardless of the subject.)
