Newbie (1/14)

  1. Saw/heard a track on the TV Music Station (Jazz) this morning with tidbits of info (like Jim wrote first songs at 7). Onward!
  2. Raymond MacDonald and Marilyn Crispell PARALLEL MOMENTS, rec. in London 2010, just released (couple of months ago). Beautiful duets.
  3. POWER OF 3 (Blue Note) live Montreux with Jim Hall and Wayne Shorter
  4. I still remember "X-cerpts" in San Francisco, Anthony with an incredible edition of Episteme, decades ago!
  5. We met more than 50 years ago. He was a big influence on me. His poetry and the magazine he edited and the records we exchanged (he turned me on to Albert Ayler), are lifelong memories for me. Decades later I was able to arrange a poetry reading for him at the college in Monterey where I was an instructor. To quote his words in "Bulworth," be a spirit! Don't be no ghost.
  6. Sadly, I knew nothing of the venue or its schedule. I live in Key Largo which is a 'haul' from Del Ray, but I just asked to be on the mailing list assuming there is one. Thanks, Dan, for speaking of it.
  7. Thanks, everyone! We will celebrate our birthdays (Gloria's in November, and mine) by going on The Jazz Cruise (one week, leaves from Ft. Lauderdale, not too far from here) at the end of January!
  8. Saturday, September 28, 2013 @ 8:00 p.m. GREENWICH HOUSE 46 Barrow St., New York, NY Tickets: $15 Laszlo Gardony solo piano / Laszlo Gardony Trio with John Lockwood (bass) and Yoron Israel (drums) This trio has been together more than a decade. Laszlo is one of my favorite pianists. Check it out?
  9. Me too. Just finished listening to it for the first time.
  10. He'll be on "The Jazz Cruise" (Caribbean, leaves from Ft. Lauderdale, for one week in January).
  11. Two stories. First one was when Miles with Hank Mobley, Wynton Kelly, Paul Chambers, and Jimmy Cobb came to Buffalo. I had met Paul before so I got backstage, went up to Paul who immediately started ranting about that 'mf' Miles and much more (Miles was standing about three feet from us clearly listening. I decided this would not be a good time to try and meet him. Second one: I was at the Jazz Gallery when Miles had the aformentioned group plus J.J. Johnson. I was talking to J.J. telling a humorous story when I sensed someone new joining us and I turned to include him: it was Miles. I finished my story and Miles and the others went back up to the bandstand. So, that's it. Don't know if it was worth telling or not...
