  1. Sent my $30. Love your projects Allen! Looking forward to hearing it when completed!
  2. Mine came today. Never received a notice but can't wait to listen!
  3. I'll take the Fragments available for $40 shipped. I sent you a private message. John T
  4. Thanks romualdo for checking with Jazz In Britain and for helping to get it corrected!
  5. My digital copy has the same dropouts between 30:25 and 31:34 on the first Southhampton track.
  6. Was expecting mine tomorrow from Amazon but received my CD tonight!
  7. Hi BFrank, It was I that sent you those copies. Still a dang shame that Cecil McBee's "Compassion" hasn't been released as a CD and that "Music From The Source" hasn't been reissued on CD. In addition, I'd love to see Cecil's "Flying Out' LP on India Navigation issued for the first time as a CD as well. I have that on LP and it's a good one.
  8. This same group, but with Scott LaFaro on bass, played the New Port Jazz festival the summer of 1961. Unfortunately, it was Scott LaFaro's final gig as he perished in a car accident soon after.
  9. I have a CD of Cecil McBee's "Music From The Source" but it's long OOP I believe. I don't think 'Compassion" has ever been on CD. I wish Enja would reissue them both too!
  10. I'm not sure 100% of when the other bass was stolen in 1958 but this recording from January 1958 with Victor Feldman may have him playing with the first bass (the album that this is taken from is my favorite Scott LaFaro):
  11. I believe Scott LaFaro's bass was set up with lower action after his first bass was stolen in California in 1958 and he then went to the Kolstein Bass Shop in New York to obtan a new one shortly thereafter. Here's a great short discussion on the history and restoration of LaFaro's bass that was nearly destroyed in the car acident that took LaFaro's life: The bass now belongs to the International Society of Bassists to loan out. Several notable bassists such as Mark johnson, Phil Polumbi and others have used it on recent recordings and concerts.
  12. Ordered June 2nd and have yet to receive it here in Florida!
  13. I've been dealing with what my Doctor calls Eustacian Tube Dysfunction in my left ear since October of last year. It causes white noise (tinnitus) in my left ear (sometimes faint and sometimes loud) and my ears "click" whenever I swallow. It is very annoying especially at night when things get quieter. Since I'm a musician, I went out and bought some expensive ear protectors which do help protect them when I play in loud situations. I've also found that staying away from caffeine also helps with the symptons. Some days are better than others and sometimes it almost seems like it goes away only to return. So far the Doctor I've been seeing has not been very helpful so I may try someone else. Not sure what caused it but it's been very annoying.
