AllenLowe Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 (edited) You know, maybe this is getting a little out of hand - I mean, maybe we should stop kicking a dead Gourse - oh, sorry! Edited January 7, 2005 by AllenLowe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jazzmoose Posted January 7, 2005 Report Share Posted January 7, 2005 Every April fool's day, I've toyed with the idea of posting a thread entitled 'Wynton Marsalis RIP' just to see how people react. I'd have to make it plausible, though. I always get stuck at the line '... died tragically yesterday, crushed by the weight of his own self-importance'. Bertrand. Sorry; just making sure this one's in at least two places so it'll be easy to find again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son-of-a-Weizen Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 I just can't bear letting this thread sink and die - In that case, you might think about taking a quick swing through DC because today marks the beginning of the annual Washington, DC Restaurant Week, with some 80+ establishments offering 3-Gourse prix fixe meals.

Adam Posted January 12, 2005 Report Share Posted January 12, 2005 Although some of her work was assembled hastily, she spent five years writing and trying to persuade publishers to print "Madame Jazz: Contemporary Women Instrumentalists." Oxford University Press released the book in 1995 to wide acclaim. Whereas many earlier books noted the contributions of pianists Mary Lou Williams and Marian McPartland, Ms. Gourse examined the work of female jazz musicians since the late 1970s. Owen McNally, a Hartford Courant jazz critic, called the book a "groundbreaking study of women's role in jazz today." I know you all dislike her, or her writing, and so forth, but have any of you actually read the first book discussed in the obiuary? Is it any different from the later works? A worthwhile read?
