I seen to recall having an enjoyable response to it! Also aks your friendly neighborhood record dealer to hook you up with this jam as weel:

Some of it can be listened to on Youtube:

What I always say - McLean

I assume that's why Zev's non-Resonance Records releases are shipping from Europe on Bandcamp? It's weird though because I can get them from Importcds without the ridiculous shipping charges.

Best outburst of applause on a claasical album. At the end of Horenstein's live recording of the Mahler 7th (BBC).Sudden,fierce, spontaneous.

Just got off the phone with Pops Poopadeaux and he says you can make his birthday any day that works for you, just get him to the party.

I suspect the reference is to this: Michel Hausser (vib) Martial Solal (p) George Duvivier (b) Charles Saudrais (d) Paris, May 22, 1956 COR56-139 Rue Dauphine ? Coronet COR56-140 Nautilus COR56-141 No whiskey for George COR56-142 You go to my head COR56-143 Just for kicks COR56-144 Fine and dandy

I like her records a lot. I might have enjoyed that show as well, although probably more iaf there had been more playing. But she does sound like she would be fun to hang out with!

I saw her at Newport a few years back and she did the same thing. I understand what she was trying to do but it didn't work for me. I am not in the "shut up and play" crowd but there are times when an artist should give the audience what they came for.

TTK, is her show's music similar to yours? Maybe these will interest her. April 27 Kirby Stone - 1918 Connie Kay - 1927 Anouk Aimee (A Man and a Woman) - 1932 Jim Keltner - 1942 Sheena Easton - 1959 I'll keep looking.

cdjapan order due to coupon offer and noticing the first item in stock:

I'm not familiar with her, but IIRC (and I often don't) she has some fans here who might be interest in this review: https://thebluemoment.com/2024/04/26/matana-roberts-at-the-roundhouse/

I didn't know it won any Oscars! Being almost totally out of touch with popular culture. 🙄 Noticed it upcoming at semi-local art house theater and thought it worth a shot. On further reflection, indeed an amazing film. In real time I found it kind of disorienting and other-worldly, but the more I reflect, the more highly I regard it.

See notes 'About the tunes' by Claus Jacoby (ts, as, cl, voc) ... Red Roseland Cornpickers & Keith Nichols & Bent Persson – Red Hot Band. Stomp Off Records – S.O.S. 1153 [1987]

Original LP

OK (as is often the case) I was wrong. Buchnamm-Moller does list it. However in the index he just refers to it as "A Little Bit South of North Carolina". He confirms all of the above but adds that he got the info from Lee Young. BTW Does anyone have a source for a digital or cd version of the Everybody's Lp?

I just tried to search for that Joe Dixon cassette tape and interview that I mentioned last time, and the search engine doesn't seem to work. I tried to register with the university, but that doesn't seem to work either. Do I have to register with them before I can do a search?

April 26 Ma Rainey - 1886 Jimmy Giuffre - 1926 Jorgen Ingmann - 1925 Francis Lai - 1932 Duane Eddy - 1938 Maurice Williams - 1938 Bobby Rydell - 1942 Gary Wright - 1943 ***** Also a favorite of mine, radio actor Vic Perrin - 1916

Some Terrific music here.
