  1. Here I am, ready to go. Sorry - I changed my job, moved again, my life has been a big mess. But I am back for my BFT
  2. Btw, the Zappa version (on Broadway the Hard Way) isn't bad at all. Nice trumpet solo by Walt Fowler. Funny how at the end of the tune the band starts to play The Police's Murder by Numbers, with Sting as a guest singer
  3. It's a Conn Multivider. Electronic gizmo or not, however, to me some of Frank's performances in this CD are among his best ever. His solo in "Misty" is incredible (and the rhythm section is a pleasure to hear)
  4. This is quite good: Frank Rosolino The Last Recording SeaBreeze 3080 1. Misty (Radio Edit) 2. I Thought About You (Radio Edit) 3. Waltz For Diane (Take Two) 4. Misty 5. I Thought About You 6. Waltz For Diane (Take One) w/Larry Willis (piano), Kevin Brandon (bass) and Billy Higgins (drums). Recorded August 1, 1978
  5. Yes, it's really a shame. That's why I kept my Swing LP (that was a great reissue program, btw).
  6. This is a very nice session: Date: February 22, 1956 Location: Paris Label: Ducretet-Thomson (Fr.)

CD: 7243 5 39651 2 9 - Lucky Thompson: Americans Swinging in Paris - Nothing But the Soul h, i performed as medley. Omit Emmett Berry (t) on a, b, h. Omit Henri Renaud (p) on a, b. Another title, "Blues for Frank," was recorded at this session but Lucky Thompson does not perform on it. Part of this session may have been recorded on February 21, 1956. Tracks h and i constitute a ballad medley of 6:22 in duration. On some issues, these tracks appear separately.
  7. I seem to remember that Eddie had also written an instructional book on how to play the reed trumpet (which he held the U.S. patent to). Maybe it's still available from his website.
  8. I particularly like Questions, an earlier Steeplechase with Jesper Lundgaard (b) and Aage Tanggaard (d).
  9. Try to find (maybe it's still available) his quintet CD for 9Winds, In the Air, with John Carter, Vinny Golia, Ken Filiano and Alex Cline
  10. IMHO, the new ECM is a great album. I think you might as well give it a chance

"Never Subject to Change" and "Tribute to Louis" are included on the LP NDR Jazzworkshop '68/'69 (NDR 654 057).
  12. Definitely not Texier or Humair! Can't identify the other musicians although I think I recognize Stu Martin on drums but can't be certain about it. The pianist might be Joachim Kuhn! May 31, 1968 Studio 10, Grosser Sendesaal des NDR Funkhauses, Hamburg And When We're Young (Phil Woods) Jimmy Owens (tpt, flh); Ack Van Rooyen (tpt); Slide Hampton (tb, arr); Lee Konitz (as); Phil Woods (as); Gato Barbieri (ts); Volker Kriegel (g); Joachim Kühn (p, org); Günter Lenz (b, g); Barry Altschul (d); Aldo Romano (d)
  13. Well, the second track is Ornette's "Latin Genetics", even if the CD says "all compositions by Paul Bley"...
  14. I have the Columbia double LP (C2 38232) issued in 1982. Here's the tracklist: 1. The Time and the Place 2. The Shadow of Your Smile 3. One for Juan (aka Far Away Lands) 4. Nino's Scene 5. Short Cake 6. Make Someone Happy 7. On the Trail 8. Blue Bossa 9. Is That So? 10. Dailey Bread 11. Satin Doll 12. Misty The last two do not belong to "The Time and the Place" session, but are unissued (and short: 6 minutes total) studio tracks from "The Art Farmer Quintet Plays the Great Jazz Hits".
