  1. " It’s the stuff that gets to you between about 12 and 25 that stays with you for life. You never absorb music in quite the same way after that.” So true ......
  2. That'a s shock. The whole jazz reissue business would be much different without him. R.I.P. Never ending thanks for the excellent work.
  3. Indeed, and in a few cases longer versions of tracks. Argo LPs were short, so the Mosaic was a bargain in comparison.
  4. With these sidemen, I'd definitely like to hear it! Okay, there are excerpts on YouTube. Typical 1960's baroque jazz. There are versions of the Händel Concerto by broque ensembles that swing a lot more! The harpsichord sounds awful (the instrument, not the player).
  5. Noal Cohen has a line-up in his Frank Strozier discography; https://attictoys.com/frank-strozier/frank-strozier-discography/#sess-year_1984

  8. Today: https://museum-wiesbaden.de/en/stephan-balkenhol Stephan Balkenhol meets Old Masters Window in Time 10 Nov 23 — 2 Jun 24 One of the most insteresting German sculptors of our time. I love the simple and direct quality of his works.
  9. Compare to Dodgion on his early Fantasy sessions.
  10. Am I the only one to hear two alto players in the track linked above?
  11. Doesn't sound like Willie Smith to me, either, but who's the second alto player? There are two exchanging some fours etc.! Sonny Criss is listed in the presumed) personnel above, and, well .....
  12. I think all these should simply be viewed as name changes, no matter if caused by religious conversion (to muslim faith), or the Americans' problems with pronounciation of foreign names (mostly Italian or Spanish), or attempts to hide a Jewish origin, or whatever. Michael Fitzgerald also included pseudonyms used because of contractual obligations, which are numerous.
