Alexander Hawkins Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 ...I just launched my website. It's fairly rudimentary (still figuring out how to build the things, etc.), but it has some sound samples, a nascent blog, etc. Would be great if anyone fancied taking a look!

JSngry Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Dude, did you know that you're a doctor? [Many also think I'm crazy for having law degrees and working as a musician... ] Ironically enough, last month I worked two different gigs with two different bassists, both of whom were practicing lawyers. They acted like they didn't need the money... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexander Hawkins Posted January 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 It's a great film, isn't it??? [You get the feeling it would have got out of hand if Han was around. Can a cat be played..? Sure he'd find a way.] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Very nice!!! But where is that Misha Mengelberg piano-playing cat? Could not find it Already heard Mengelberg's parrot on that Dolphy album and got to catch that cat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
couw Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 But where is that Misha Mengelberg piano-playing cat? Could not find it look under the "blog" link for a post titled "Pief" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Bonjour et Merci, couw! Makes my day Awesome - almost like Candid-period Cecil Taylor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brownie Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 Awesome - almost like Candid-period Cecil Taylor. I am quite convinced that Cecil Taylor was a cat in an earlier life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander Hawkins Posted January 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 I love the way the cat looks around beyond the piano, but decides he's actually quite intrigued by this thing making noise under his feet...settles down again, only to be returned to the world of cat by his friend! Is this the footage that's on the new ICP DVD, I wonder (which includes Brxton guesting with the ICP orchestra!)? p.s. with the sound of the piano, if it's not a missing Candid take, it's from the Nefertiti gig!

Alexander Hawkins Posted April 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 p.s. can anyone suggest why I might have a broken link instead of the image on the homepage??? I can't figure it out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert J Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 Alex - it seems to be pointing to your local URL - ie, your home computer. Try and ftp it to the same directory as your other images on the site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander Hawkins Posted April 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 I'll try that - thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
