Yes, that one but in the original gatefold LP, still without the musical notation ... Love that band photo...

that Mary Lou Williams I am also hoping to find some day... My purchases of the last two weeks: Anthony Braxton (Actuel 15) ... think quit a few people are replacing the originals with LPs right now Cal Tjader - Last night when we were young ( a ballads album on Fantasy from the 70s with Frank Strazzeri who also arranged the strings) The Contemporary Jazz Classics Of The Paul Moer Trio Sonny Stitt & the Top Brass (someone put the ugly but good-sounding 1980s LP into a nice 1960s original jacket) Albert Ayler - The Hilversum Session Shorty Rogers – Afro-Cuban Influence

fwiw, here is another single on the same label by Beau which apparently features Jackie Kelso on "Straight as an arrow"...

the others I don't know but I fully agree on the Great 3 set!

Thanks for sharing!

from 1973, thanks for pointing out that magazine, more issues here, that particular band went on to great things, or, at least, one of the members did (Modern Talking, 11 years later)... and if you hired them, they'd come in a VW bus with two roadies carrying a Hohner piano and other good stuff... the magazine was founded by a former roadie and focused exactly on the types of things that roadies care about, the heavy objects, the cars...

Thanks!! Roadies were apparently quite an issue in that world...

Heinz, Klaus, Rüdiger, Werner... That generation of German males had some quite distinctive names ... (Andreas, Oliver and Lutz still exist among people my age, so what's now below 50, even though I guess the names have by now died out as well). You don't happen to have the entire page, it looks like a fascinating piece of history overall? do you know the year? just from the names and how it reads, it feels like late 70s or even 80s to me. those numbers indicate postcode areas btw, 1000 means Berlin, 2000 Hamburg, 3000 Hannover, 4000 Düsseldorf (even though the 0221 places Irmin in 5000 Cologne where he belongs... I would have been annoyed)

I've used AI twice, both times for work... translating code from one programming language to another worked really well, no complaints, huge efficiency gain - it's a pity I only need to do something like this every few years.... then again, maybe I should be happy. The second was to find the most suitable experts on a given topic ("convex analysis" iirc) in a list of 50 names. That's a task AI should be good at, much more efficient than a human, but the thing we were using (ChatGPT iirc) did an incredibly poor job, confusing one person with someone with a similar last name and generally not looking further than the first handful of names... One annoying feature I noticed is that if it gets names in the form "A. Smith, B. Miller" it will just talk about "Alfred Smith" and "Ben Miller" as if those were these people's first names... but in fact the few names that I knew were all wrong, so - it does look up the correct biography of "A. Smith" but then plugs in a random but plausible first name... Of course, with further pushing the quality of all these replies could be improved and the system will apologize excessively while correcting it's errors...You have to really like working with interns to enjoy this... I can easily how someone who doesn't actually care about the quality of the result will be quite happy with the AI system... For the majority of tasks, my feeling is that the biggest gains are for people who found google too abstract to really benefit from it... But with google, you were lead to a website and then could decide for yourself whether to trust it or not... Now many people may indeed no longer leave the AI and get all information filtered and possibly randomly altered through that system... which is pretty worrying

It probably already helps to read a translation... I heard that with Kant (who is easier to read than Hegel I guess) some educational programs in Germany give their students English translations to read because those are smoother ...

Carlos Garnett said he got the job via Woody Shaw - so it seems natural to speculate that Tyrone Washington came via Shaw as well, they'd collaborated quite a bit by that time... Why it didn't last longer is a good one... In the months afterwards, Downbeat listed quite a few leader gigs for Washington... So maybe he decided his sideman years were over ...

The Coda article was written after the fact, my snippet does not have the full sentence but it's mentioned that the place "played host to Art Blakey with Tyrone Washington, Woody Shaw, George Cables and Scotty Holt".

the Rutgers gig is actually on youtube by now in that case, the unknown tune is at 28:45 in the first video...

I could now see a snippet of that CODA article on google books. The line-up with Washington is reported there for the Montreal gig - however, unfortunately, without a precise date... but that date could be found... the 23 February 1969 edition of a newspaper named La Patrie mentions that Blakey would be at the Black Bottom in Montreal from 10 to 15 March 1969. So together with the Coda article, that confirms Washington with Blakey in mid-March.
