Thanks erwbol.  I'll track that down. :tup 

I will say that I intentionally avoided including bootlegs in my survey -- even if they're widely available. Just wanted to stick with official releases.

It's no longer on Dimeadozen, but I still have the FLAC files from 2006 on my hard drive. I can upload to dropbox or similar for whomever is interested.

I originally received this several rears ago via the Miles-Trees.org "Fillmore" tree.  Thanks to all involved for your efforts. This should not be confused with the following night's concert (March 7), which Columbia officially released as "It's About That Time" in 2001. When the Fillmore Tree was originally distributed, the general consensus was that this March 6 recording sounded much better than the official March 7 release.

How do you say "Where is the men's room?" in music?

Why would you need to?

Exactly.

You're thinking in prose, Captain.  Think POETRY.  Wooing a lover (or at least getting laid). Finding God (or at least some sort of meaning).  Sorting out the order of things.  Expressing who you are, booty shaking-wise or otherwise.  BIG things, man!  That's what the language of music is for.

OTOH, I used to think that Joanne Brackeen always sounded/played like she needed to pee, like, right NOW.

But I'd also think that she was pro enough to have already scoped out where the bathroom was in any place she played. Pros just do that.

You reference the famous Creedence Clearwater Revival song.

Because if a language has no fixed meaning that people can agree upon, then it's useless. What if I'm finding god on my sax but that fat homely bitch in the front row thinks I'm wooing her?

Speaking of language...:rolleyes:

Jim, you're confusing musical urgency with bladder urgency.

Not all urgency is the same. ;)

We need, at best, a dictionary and a government, to make that even kinda work for verbal/written languages on any scale, so I'm not particularly impressed by their efficacy.

Then you'd best allow for the possibility that you are about to find god where you least expect it (which is usually how it works anyway).

Nor are all bathrooms. The REAL pros know which ones have locks on the stalls.

Latin Percussion Jazz Ensemble - Just Like Magic (Latin Percussion Ventures, 1979)
Cheesy cover, but good music.  Features no less than three heroes of Latin percussion: Tito Puente, Carlos "Patato" Valdes, and Steve Berrios.

WTF are you under the influence of today, my man? For thousands of years traditional cultures without writing or gov't have been communicating just fine. 

And as well with traditions of non-verbal communications.

Cutting those off (and/or minimizing their importance in ways up to and including calling the very possibility of the existence of such) is like cutting off the higher and lower overtones.

The masters have been used for subsequent (budget) reissues in jewel cases, some up until recently while others having been replaced with for instance the US Originals masters of the 2011 SHM-CD masters. I have a spare copy of this Ascension in jewel case in near mint condition as well (UCCI-9124). Are you perhaps interested for a friendly price? 

I also have Live at the Village Vanguard Again! (UCCI-9144).

Also a spare copy of the incredible SHM-CD from 2011 of Meditations without the distortion in the bass of the all domestic releases. And SHM-CD 2011 of Transition.

Friendly price means free except the price of shipping, which is not budget from the Netherlands.

Thank you - I sent you a PM.

 If Art Blakey starts expressing himself on the drum, the tribe won't know WTF to think and they'll all be slaughtered by the enemy.

The assumption here is that "expression" by definition falls outside of the "language" of the tribe?

I don't know where you grew up, but I grew up in the semi-rural American South, and we pretty much all knew that a simple "hmmmm...." could mean damn near anything (including "where's the men's room) depending on tone, inflection, facial expression, body language, the whole thing. So I've never been convinced that a literal verbal/written expression is the ultimate in meaning. Far from it, actually.

Quite apart from all that though...if there's a language that is not being understood, the problem is not necessarily with the language, and really, it's not necessarily a problem at all. Nobody understands everything. How could they? Why would they? Everything?

But what about a language comprised of nothing but hmmm's?

As long as the people who are supposed to understand it can, you got yourself a language.

Now, if all you want to do is talk to yourself in a language that only you are certain to understand, hey, knock yourself out. Just don't get all angst-y if the gigs aren't there.

I think I'll order the Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis Johnny Griffin from this series next. Have you heard it? Is the sound as good as the Woody Shaw?

The sound is not as good as on the Woody Shaw, but still very good .... and the music is excellent indeed ....
