In the 2nd version (the official one), it mostly Shafi Hadi soloing although there is still Mingus soloing quite a bit The ordinal version with all the Mingus tunes barely exists and is not allowed by the Cassevetes estate. That's what I read anyway. TCM streaming (via the HBO Max app) has the entire film. It's still a jolting watch, and the murder/aftermath is just, like, the last quarter or so.

Me too.

I've created my first vibe coded game thinking about JSngry asking what it is. I started this from scratch 5 hours ago. I used Claude desktop for the interface. From there I had it research jazz trivia for an experienced jazz enthusiast. With that research completed I pointed Claude to the folder of research material. I used a brainstorming skill to create the story line for a jazz themed game based in the late 50s. From there I had claude build the code. We iterated several times to get the look and feel to a point where I was satisfied. I have yet to play the game in full. I've only reviewed the first room and used that as the prototype for the rest of the buildout. When it was complete and working, I asked claude to make it prettier. Last, I had to find a way to deploy the game. I do not know how to do any of this. Click the link to see and play the game. It should take between 1-2 hours to complete, according to Claude. I tried not to make this easy, you should need jazz knowledge to identify the killer. I have no idea if this is good and I suspect there's a lot of room for improvement. For five hours work, I'm satisfied at the moment. I don't want to hijack this thread but at the same time I would love critical feedback, especially as it pertains to late 50's jazz. jazz-detective The URL is safe, netlify is legitimate. If you do check it out, THANK YOU!

I love this and the other two Gene Shaw Argo albums. Terrific stuff.

having seen photos/footage of the scene, there's a copy of Dolphy's "Out To Lunch" among the scattered household items (after the fact). It is a chilling setting.

Mingus.

I think that this Voyage from Jericho reissue will do well, and it might be worth mentioning this cassette material to the proprietor of Frederiksberg. Tyler has also been strangely absent from the NoBusiness CD "loft archive" series and perhaps they'd like to know about some of these recordings.

Nice one indeed. Bjarne Boman is the only one I was not super familiar with upon buying the reissue. There's a really strong version of Strandberg's tune "Cirrus" on the Red Mitchell album Communication, on which Bertil also plays (though I'm unsure if the drummer on that record, Göran, is Bertil's brother... presumably?).

Really enjoying this one. Never heard of anyone involved so it's totally new although it's from '73. Album is Cirrus by Bertile Strandberg's Quintet. Great sound and grooves. This is a pic of the rear cover, chosen for the band photos.

Seeing this in the "what are you listening to now" thread, I took a chance on it and bought it. On its way

The next Bandcamp Friday is 2/6. There's several Tyler albums there. Which is recommended the highest?

Listening to this one again before I re-file it in the shelves. “O’Loons Rathskeller Presents Jack Teagarden Featured With The Walloon Young Pecan Pickers And Bugs Resrom’s Richmond Ramblers” Warcloud Records LP A Boris Rose thing. . . some of this is true stereo. 300×300 9.07 KB

Now $72.56, sorry I missed the $50 price, may have sprung for it.

How are the liners?

I digitized the Joanne Grauer show awhile back and can send you the files. It is excellent and it didn't need pitch correction. Let me know your email and I can send the music, I have to go downstairs to find the CDR.

Honestly Ken, I think it’s too much hassle for you and for them. My experience on the odd occasion when I’ve received a duplicate order is that the firm doesn’t really care whether they get it back or not. To them, it’s just one of the screw-up’s that happens once in a while. Cost of doing business. That seems to be the vibe you’re getting from them. But I wouldn’t sell the recordings, either. Gift them to a jazz- loving friend.
