Whatever happened to Feldman's gig with Blue Note? What came out of that:
1) Lee Morgan Lighthouse
2) Blakey Just Coolin'
3) Blakey in Tokyo
Anything else? I could use some more Lee Morgan since that seemed to be his focus per the above list.
It would be great if he could rescue the Grant Green/John Patton and the Duke Pearson Big Band Left Bank tapes from wherever Sunnenblick at Uptown was hiding them, but I have pretty much given up.

Another big Airplane fan here, especially Jack Casady.

A private collector had out-takes from We Insist in 2007. Where are they now, 17 years later?

WPFW in DC has been giving heavy airplay to his majesty the detective's new 'product'. It is too much.
The Lateef is tempting...

I believe Ben Young is working on a book also.

Not sure that a Muslim name due to a religious conversion counts as a "stage name"?
I agree. Those should not be on the list.

Too early for Earl Anderza to be one of the uncredited reeds, I assume?

It's kind of odd. I listed it on Discogs and my review copy was a CD-R. Allison himself changed it to CD and I changed it back, as it was blue and had the typical lack of matrix / runout that manufactured CDs have. He insisted it was a CD and I disagreed, not knowing that I was talking with him (or his representative).
Here is the link to the Discogs page and the images I posted, view them and decide for yourself.
One reason it makes it difference to me is that I have had some commercial CD-Rs fail completely, so I avoid them, especially buying them. Amazon is bad about sneaking in manufactured on demand CD-Rs of out of print CDs without listing them as such.
That is exactly the problem. CDrs often fail after a short amount of time.
I know Ben but I did not want to ask him directly. My hunch was right that it is a touchy subject with artists...

PS: Afterbeat was written for Archie Shepp during the time they hung together with Roswell Rudd. I bet he would get a kick out of hearing it. Can we make this happen?

Has anyone purchased the Allison/Cardenas/Nash CD Tell The Birds I Said Hello? Is it a real CD or a CD-R? I want to decide whether to get the CD or a download. Moments Inside was a CD-R.
Thanks,
Bertrand.

Fay Victor releases her Herbie Nichols SUNG project today!

Their latest record consists of Herbie pieces he never got to record. 6 of them were in a stash the Nichols family recently uncovered. I believe it is the music that was purported to have been lost after a pipe burst per the Mosaic set. You can get the sheet music at jazzleadsheets.com

Who is with Joe?

I've seen a couple of lists of recordings from the Keystone Korner. There was no Grant Green on those lists. I can ask when I play there in a couple of weeks.
Is there an action plan for the future or is it another Left Bank kinda deal?

Has anyone asked Mr. Barkan if Grant Green was recorded at Keystone Korner?
Saw him Sunday but I stopped asking him about what he recorded since he gets cagey about it.
-
I hesitated to post the outcome. The project was discontinued at the request of the family. Not sure what is going on but this is a lost opportunity to champion this underappreciated artist.
All the money was refunded.

Matt Wilson posted on Facebook that Lewis and Charlie Haden were close friends.

No, it is his brother George who passed.

Who recorded them?
The writer isn't wrong. 😀 The whistle on the 1975 Oil Can Harry's date is cringeworthy.
In fact, it would be a perfect use case for modern de-mixing technology. Digitally remove the whistle on two-track pre-FM mix-downs of live Grant Green recordings. It would be kind of a public service -- like removing Yoko Ono screaming over John Lennon and Chuck Berry on the Dick Cavett Show. 😁
Todd Barkan recorded a lot of Keystone shows and some have been released. It is a situation similar to Left Bank, no list as far as I know and perhaps no succession plan for tape ownership.
-
I started looking into the Jack session a few months ago. It may have been a Jazz Alive recording, which means there may be more.
It is not clear when they stopped recording, but all the tapes they have been pitching to the Feldmans, Dorns and Sunnenblicks of the world are 60s and 70s. I would like to hear Old And New Dreams, Dewey Redman etc.
It all goes back to getting a master list of what was recorded and what is still held. I am convinced there is more than one source.
-
A good chance this was recorded, as were most Keystone gigs.
-
The Zurich set was on TCB, paired with a Horace Silver date. Is that grey market?

It was pulled from release because the liner notes did not discuss or identify the second person in the shower.
I'll ask around LOL.

Ditto. I'm still surprised. In this day and age, when any old 'Zev Feldman Presents: John Coltrane live at the Shower Cubicle, 1963' is getting broadsheet press and rave reviews, why on earth is this still unreleased.
Where can I find this shower cubicle date? I missed it somehow.

Those long jams like Spare Chaynge, Bear Melt and Thing are the Airplane at their best. Spencer Dryden is great too.
