Claude Schlouch Posted March 5, 2018 Report Share Posted March 5, 2018 Very sad to read that. A great loss for the jazz world. RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted March 9, 2018 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 The next Uptown issue was to be a 2 disc Dodo Marmarosa set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllenLowe Posted March 9, 2018 Report Share Posted March 9, 2018 I assume the Jaki Byard disc is out. Or him paying me the $300 he owes me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Posted April 16, 2018 Report Share Posted April 16, 2018 I hope this doesn’t come off as morbid or disrespectful to Dr. Sunenblick’s memory but does anyone know what’s going to happen to Uptown now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Shucks, I had missed this news - very sorry to hear it! Hopefully someone will continue the good work, if only to complete projects that were under way. The recent Serge Chaloff was amazing, and a worthy one if it is to stay the final release by this fine label. Still have some of their own albums to catch up, but amongst a few others I've got that fine Thomas/McShann, as well as the Don Joseph LP. Good stuff!

Though I must admit I liked his first one ("Boston 1950") even better. Don't quite know how to put it but somehow i find the first one more "coherent". But any glimpse into an otherwise undocumented past is very welcome. Of course here's hope too that the label will continue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king ubu Posted April 18, 2018 Report Share Posted April 18, 2018 Yeah, maybe the first one is even better, but this new one fills a tiny bit in the huge gap in Chaloff's discography, and as such is an amazing document and a great addition to what was known so far.
