    Tom Harrell was supposed to have been playing at Dizzy’s club this week. Due to health issues that were canceled. Does anyone know if it’s something serious?  supposed to have been playing at Dizzy’s club this week. Due to health issues that were canceled. Does anyone know if it’s something serious?

    The best recording with Sonny Rollins I've ever heard is a live recording I got from the person that taped it. Since this isn't official I can share it if someone wants to hear it. I know a copy was given to Sonny's team. They loved it. The sound is fine for an audience recording, but not for commercial release.

  18. Of all the live recordings of Charlie Parker discovered over the years

    Monk and Bird, besides the one live track from the Dean Benedetti recordings, are there any others? I couldn't find anything else. The LOC has a concert of Bird and Monk. It appears to be unheard music since it resides on tape. The recording is from the Gerry Mulligan collection given to the LOC after he passed in the 90s. Someone I know put in a request to have the tape digitalized so he can give a listen.  This needs to be issued. I wonder why no record company has made an effort to get the rights to issue this.

    Recently I realized that, in light of the various excellent and varied live music experiences that I recall, I didn't have enough Geri Allen recordings and have been trying to rectify that deficiency.

    2000: Chico Freeman, Richard Davis, Geri Allen and Andrew Cyrille at Jazz Standard. I wish there were a recording of this group.

    2002: At the Iridium, with a Wallace Roney led group that also included James Spaulding and Lennie White. I went twice over the course of a week. I recall Patrice Rushen was advertised as the pianist but it was in fact Geri Allen.

    2007: Geri Allen Trio with tap dancer, at Jazz Improv Festival.

    2015: David Murray/Geri Allen/Terri Lynne Carrington, at Winter Jazz Fest.

    2016: Geri Allen Tribute to Erroll Garner, with Christian Sands, Russell Malone, Victor Lewis. New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. George Wein was in attendance.

    You can find some more recordings here on my Facebook group.

    Would anyone have a guess of a bass player whose first name is Luther?  I got a recording of a George Van Eps that someone made back in 1997. George calls him by his first name. I can’t think of any jazz bassist named Luther.
