Week 9 review https://3downnation.com/2025/08/05/3downnation-cfl-awards-the-best-and-worst-of-week-9-3/ ***** ***** ***** ***** *****

I don't watch the Price is Right so I'm not sure I can make comparisons. On Project Runway there are definitely some pretty models, and some that are not that pretty imo, but that's not what we are focused on in the series. It's hosted by Heidi Klum if that makes a difference. She is pretty.

Yes! That's the one!

👍

I found it all pretty confusing, but I selected a Motorola Moto G Power 5G. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CT6BQV81

Indeed. Even in a very, VERY strong run, this one stands out for me The older I get, the more I realize just how much of a TOTAL badass Coleman Hawkins was, and not just about music. Like, how much of a badass about life he had to be to get to be that much of a badass in music. Not always true for everybody, and more true for Hawk than for many!

On this Night, yeah! Historically and great music, love Fire Music and Four for Trane, but I like the Shepp Impulse!'s that fly under the radar, like For Losers, Live in San Francisco, Attica Blues, and Mama Too Tight. The Savoy material with Bill Dixon should be made more readily available (have the Atlantic/Savoy issue of Shepp/Dixon 7tette/Cont 5, but not the quartet issue , which is some gray-area issue).

Glad I got to see her in person at the Jazz Standard before the back injury that laid her low.

Mine as well, at least from his first period. Also On This Night. That one maybe gets underappreciated. Most of them have actually held up really well though. However...Fire Music and Four For Trane might be of more historical importance than Shepp importance once his pre-Impulse work gets familiar?

RIP. The loft material from the '70's is gold.

Models ain't always purty, and gambling is no longer for me. But you know what that Price Is Right TV show has models and they ALWAYS be purty. Even Devin and James which imo takes some doin. Not so the contestants though. That quality has deteriorated greatly. Them people ain't kookin healthy too often. But Drew Carey looks great still! Not purty, but healthy, which I suppose is the purtiest of all purtys!

Nancy King, the great jazz scat singer passed away today here in Portland. She was 85 years old. She recorded with Ray Brown in the late '90s, and also with Glenn Moore of Oregon. She will be missed...

The Magic of JuJu is one of my favorite Impulse! Shepps. Contrasts, I am waiting for a copy to graze my presence.

Yes, Yes!

There are models. . . but the focus is on the designs and designers. My wife loves this show and it has been gone a few years, now returned.

That guy was a badass. RIP

According to a number of musician-collaborators, the tubaist Joe Daley died on Sunday at age 75. Glad to have seen him several times over the years… and I’m thankful for his contributions. RIP.

I have that Didion book on my (literal) short stack of titles to read next, along with The Time of Our Singing by Richard Powers. Here's what I'm currently reading (I normally have a Marcus book and a Peterson book working, along with whatever else I am reading).

So no purty girls on the TV Show?

No it's a fashion designer competition.

Just finished The Leopard. Will try to get around to watching the movie very soon. Just under halfway through Didion's Slouching Towards Bethlehem. Also midway through Richler's St. Urbain's Horseman.

Opening set at The Standard with Junius Paul?

Is them the purty girls TV show?

Horace Tapscott played trombone here.
