Any recollections?

Mine also.

Used to encounter him in the Chess studios in the late '60s.

One hour, in my experience.

That Dannie Richmond interview.

Noted. When it's more complete I will do so. Out of curiosity, what is the timeline for one to edit their own post?

I have this - FREE to a good home in the continental US. Actual shipping elsewhere. PM me if you want it.

My top 2 by a long shot are the unadventurous choices of Welles and Kurosawa. 😁

I actually prefer Orson's interviews to his movies.

Yuletide sedation with Felix. 🥸

Ask me to edit the first post with the complete list, pm it to me. As a moderator I can do this.

Oh yes. How could I forget him?

Ordered this 2-disc set just this week. I guess I am now an inductee to THE CREATIVE WORLD OF STAN KENTON. Stan feels confident that his new organization, bolstered by my participation, will do much toward furthering the success and growth of modern American music. 😁

R.I.P. He had some setious jazz chops. I recommend this album: https://www.discogs.com/release/7297593-Phil-Upchurch-Trio-Dolphin-Dance

Track #1 of 230!

First spin of a new-to-me LP:

I hit Wax 'n Facts, a local record shop, earlier today. I brought home these four LPs:

oops: Born in Orange, New Jersey, in 1958

Dang, I recognized Santana but not Abraxas, which is one of the albums I'm most familiar with. I saw Bill Ware play live in fall of 2024. I got the impression he's currently NY based. Didn't know about the Philly background.

Ordon Welles, flaws and all. Among others ..
