  1. Kind of an oddball example, but even more than the others Dickey wasn't one to be put in just one box.
  2. Yes, it's ironic that most of these 'the world is dumbing down' narratives are themselves quite simplistic and naive.
  3. Atlantic recorded some classic New Orleans players in the '50s. I have some but not all. Henry Red Allen made some very nice albums in the late '50s and early '60s, but although his roots in New Orleans were deep (his father ran a brass band in the 19th century) these are not strictly traditional in approach. I'm particularly fond of Ride Red Ride on RCA with Coleman Hawkins as a sideman.
  4. Grant Green also did Betcha by Golly Wow and Freddie and Bobby Hutcherson each did nice renditions of People Make the World Go Round Ray Charles rendition of One Mint julep is probably the best remembered now, but Freddie did it before that and the Clovers did it first, so I think it's squarely within this topic.
  5. "@dukdukguus 11 years ago No one plays a meaner wind-up music box through a Telecaster, into a DL4, then a DeLuxe Reverb than Frisell. Nobody." from the YouTube comments
  6. Yes, I was disappointed the WSQ didn't do that on their R&B album, just take the voices directly from vocal group performances and transfer them to the horns. Bill Frisell et al doing the Delphonics' La La La La La La Means I Love You, I love this but as far as I know there's no official hard copy product. I think this was the final tune of an otherwise fairly standard (for them) set list.
  7. Related - Sam Cooke's You Send Me as played by P Sanders & Ed Kelly
  8. Bennie Wallace doing Twilight Time which was a hit for the Platters
  9. Just consult the discography, notice the ever-shifting connections of who played on what, and listen. Although it helps to know who wrote what which most discographies don't tell you. But the album credits do. and the liner notes make a great as it happened serial version of the history. I haven't been impressed by any of the standalone books I've seen.
  10. Just sent my $ to Allen, looking forward to hearing this. Keep up the good work.
  11. Since that box does not contain the final mix of Go Ahead John form Big Fun but does have some raw takes of section of it, I made a CD-R that had it all. Played it in the car for years.
  12. I think there was a dbl CD version from his website with even more, but I think those were on a separate Ace CD, IIRC which I probably don't.
  13. That's a great album, I even enjoy the bonus tracks on my CD of it, some of which weren't even issued at the time.
  14. Did they work for others? Yes, Lou Donaldson, Don Wilkerson, also Patton albums with and without added horns. Yes, but the Red Garland trio albums on Prestige had Art Taylor drumming instead of Philly Joe.
