Sam Fuller! (I once went to a burlesque house to see this film.)

I saw whatever tune(s) they recorded in SF. I've seen quite a few of their annual performances over the years. It's an interesting project. Some years are better than others. That was a good one.

Yesterday was Free Agent Day. I haven't seen anything inconsistent with last week's reports. Apparently nobody changed his mind. Here are a few articles which summarize the day. https://www.cfl.ca/2026/02/10/a-team-by-team-look-at-2026-cfl-free-agency/ https://www.cfl.ca/2026/02/10/3-impactful-signings-on-day-1-of-cfl-free-agency/ https://www.cfl.ca/2026/02/11/3-busiest-teams-on-opening-day-of-cfl-free-agency/ https://www.cfl.ca/2026/02/11/grading-every-teams-2026-cfl-free-agency-so-far/ https://www.cfl.ca/2026/02/11/a-look-at-9-new-faces-in-new-places/ https://www.tsn.ca/cfl/article/cfl-free-agency-tracker-follow-the-latest-as-day-1-kicks-off/ https://3downnation.com/2026/02/10/2026-cfl-free-agency-live/ https://3downnation.com/2026/02/11/every-cfl-teams-gains-and-losses-in-2026-free-agency/ ***** And here are some names that either I missed last week (or don't remember), or waited till this week to come to terms.

Hello Joe Henderson!

Derek Shulman - 1947 Didier Lockwood - 1956

Hadn't listened to this excellent one for a while.

Prompted by the Tyler discussion,

I didn't mean to put down BSN - they do some serious work with love and engagement. It's just that it's of limited use if you want to compile a serious session-based discography like I do with the BRIAN software.

I didn't know about this. Thanks for mentioning. I must get a copy.

I wonder who they are. They definitely have some money.

Commercial!!!

Any place for more sound samples other than the three on Mosaic's website?

Some ignoramus created a laughable list at Discogs: https://www.discogs.com/lists/The-best-jazz-of-the-90s/1406212

The Musician I love most from them all 💕

Tyler's estate does indeed seem complicated!

oh, I understand now. The buyers are definitely going for 1950 or later, yeah.

I lucked into a Japanese copy (of the physical CD) about four years ago. (Previously, I had the download as well.) Beautiful presentation, excellent remastering—a lovely product overall. More importantly, for those interested, just find a way to listen to the music! 🥰
