Great man, great stuff. Sonny was in my opinion always an educator too, making massive donations to music programs, Oberlin College of recent, comes to mind.

You can't.

Everybody's favorite drummer Peeter Uuskyla is offering his full digital discography (60 titles!) for merely €61 (plus bullshit taxes for EU residents) this week only on bandcamp. A lot of really good stuff there, including many duo and trio albums with one Peter Brötzmann: https://peeteruuskyla.bandcamp.com/

I'm actually on that record too...

Wow, this disc is sounding phenomenal today–deep and resonant sound! From 1958, when stereo Capitol records were produced with excellent sound. “The Ballad Style of Stan Kenton” Capitol cd

I too have dropped pounds and now the T-Shirts I have of this series are bigger than necessary! Too bad, but not too bad.

Will these get the clearance treatment some day in the future like the others did? I wouldn't pay $35 a piece but if they were 1/2 that plus shipping I'd consider it. (And I am pleased to say that the ones I did get on close out are fitting quite a bit better since I dropped the poundage and are back in regular rotation. Will probably start running them thru the drier cause I don't really need them to keep their size anymore.)

Moving on to some Mingus I have not heard in a long time. Mingus was something else! “CHARLES MINGUS IN PARIS – The COMPLETE AMERICA SESSION” 2 cd set disc 1

Excellent!

This is great. https://www.instagram.com/p/DMVQR43OIJp/?igsh=MWJ1aGt5Mnk4Ymt0Ng%3D%3D&img_index=1

The city of Birmingham [United Kingdom] has opened up an online book of condolence for fans from across the world to leave their thoughts, memories and messages after the sad passing of Ozzy Osbourne. https://www.birmingham.gov.uk/blog/Ozzy

5 new Blue Note cover shirts, direct from BN. Not sure if I’ll spring for any of these, but I’m considering it. https://store.bluenote.com/collections/album-cover-series

Disc 1 - works by Chopin

After Pepper and maybe Hamiet we are left with doublers. No way it's Mulligan or Carney.

I know this one is done and over with, but I just found out that someone filmed the second night (!). Playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8iWGeoLWneM&list=PLHcqa_rVPdbVwzxym2KQotMezZzPZRI5U The video above ends with a nice little happy birthday presentation for Mr. Bradford.

Good for you. Well done with the discipline... I don't have it.

Rachel Musson is a great tenor saxophonist. Her recordings on matchless with Eddie Prevost are great. Under the Sun is incredible with the *great* N.O. Moore on guitar.
