  1. Me too. The list of his recordings (not necessarily releases) in the"New Desor"-- Duke Ellington's Story on Records-- suggests that most of the concerts he gave in the last decade of his life was recorded by someone.

    Then you're right: he probably did make a nice piece of change from the record. IIRC Russ Freeman made enough money to retire after Mariah Carey recorded her version of The Wind. (The retirement part isn't mentioned but here's a good story about it: https://jazzresearch.com/russ-freeman-the-wind/.)

    Did he write something on it? Otherwise I don 't think he gets anything except his session fees.
  4. I was a big fan. Couple of New Orleans friends of mine worked on it.
  5. Koerner Hall? That will be great. I saw Laurie Anderson there a few weeks ago.
  6. Just came back from a Kronos Quartet concert at which they played "Kiss Yo' Ass Goodbye" credited to Sun Ra, Terry Riley and Sara Miyamoto. According to the program notes it "utilizes Sun Ra's Track 'Nuclear War' as source material." It begins to really kick ass when they sample the drumming and chanting from the original.
  7. My mistake. I should have said (according to my discography) it's Taxi War DAnce that's really Willow Weep for Me. But I better wait till I hear it to confirm.
  8. Despite the title she gave the article she never gives any total sales figures. There have been several articles pointing out that the DOJ never said that 50% of books published sell less than 12 copies a year. They asked a hypothetical question.
  9. Thanks. Just ordered it. (I also don't have these versions of Taxi War Dance and Tickle-Toe (which apparently is really Willow Weep for Me).
  10. I think I have all the stuff with Basie. It's the Young brothers band material I'm looking for.
  11. I'm not familiar with her, but IIRC (and I often don't) she has some fans here who might be interest in this review: https://thebluemoment.com/2024/04/26/matana-roberts-at-the-roundhouse/
