  1. A friend (whose last name begins with "A") received his box this morning. Me? No shipping notice yet. Anyone else have anything to report?
  2. A few more jump to mind: "Golden Cress" is superb. Slippery Horn Ducky Wucky
  3. A bit of a mystery. If you look at the LP, the tunes other than "Lyons Busy" are credited to Bobby Correll. (who is also listed on the cover) It appears that he was (and still is) a pianist. Are you sure that Brubeck is on the rest of the album? The other two musicians shown on the cover (Frank Blake and Bob Kindle) may be pseudonyms. What is the instrumentation on the other sides? Perhaps Crown was trying to sell the album as a Brubeck item by including a single side by him.
  4. Well, the Wordle archive is gone. Here's the message displayed on the archive site: 👋 Thanks for playing! Thank you for playing the Wordle Archive, and for all your nice comments and feedback that helped make the site better. Sadly, the New York Times has requested that the Wordle Archive be taken down. However, you can still play the daily Wordle over on their official site.
  5. Damn! She was a great player. I managed to see her twice during some of her too infrequent trips to the east. RIP. You'll be missed.
  6. If you broaden the time period a bit, I would throw in The Avengers and Mannix.
  7. Look here: https://oblivionrecords2.bandcamp.com/album/the-complete-legendary-live-return-concert-at-the-town-hall-nyc-november-4-1973
  8. My guess is that they'll do the same thing with Wordle that they've done with the crossword puzzle and Spelling Bee. They'll make some available for free on a day by day basis but will move the archive/on-demand option behind their Diversions paywall.
  9. Oh, not this one: or this one:
  10. It’s fairly easy to find the image. Just search for “Alex Steinweiss.” He generally is credited with the idea of putting art, instead of plain covers, on 78 albums. This one appears to be his first effort.
  11. I had hoped that it was an early April Fool's joke. No such luck. There's an associated concert tour for those who want to suffer.
  12. Got a download yesterday. Hope to listen later.
  13. Just got an e-mail from Mosaic. There will be a 6-CD Tristano set drawn from his private tapes. Pre-orders not accepted yet. Release in mid-November expected, although we know how those dates can slip.
  14. I was going to mention Wynton Kelly, but he already came up. How about Hank Jones?
  15. It’s excellent. I recommended it in August in this thread.
  16. RIP. Heard a lot of great music from him in my formative years.
  17. Wondering if anyone can help locate this (see below). A friend from South Africa used to stream it, but it's disappeared from the services he used. I can find previews on Apple Music, but the full tracks don't seem to be available. Anyone have any ideas, leads, or suggestions?
  18. Here's another good one with Albert Dailey:
  19. You’re right. Sounds the same but without the other connotation!
  20. No. Bollock was their last name.
  21. It's funny how so many brother duos had issues over time. The Bollocks (Blue Sky Boys) and the Louvin Brothers were other examples.
