Chuck Nessa

This is an almost comprehensive Bechet 3 cd set from a few years ago.

4 cds in the Mosaic Art Hodes set, the Mosaic George Lewis set was 5 lps, this and this and more Bechet and then Japanese cds by Ike Quebec (2), John Hardee and more.

Just listened to the Ellington Victor master takes 8-26-30 through 6-17-31.

The three Quartet Pieces would be new to cd - 46 minutes of music.

Haven't played this in ages - probably because it's an audio DVD.

Yes it was direct to disc.

He's on one of the lower levels in the back.

When they were just building the Mosaic paradigm, I suggested to Michael a "Complete Bobo Stenson" box. ;-) Can we get Ron McMaster to work on that?

JR Monterose told me when he and Jackie McLean were in the band, one night he and Jackie were on the road with the band and broke. They walked by a "fancy" restaurant and saw Mingus eating a big meal inside. They waited and Jackie called Mingus out - Mingus made a move to strike McLean and JR threatened to clobber him with his tenor if he hit Jackie.

More Chicago fest sets - Roy Eldridge /Barrett Deems (playing Roy's features with Krupa and Shaw), Miles, Getz, Lionel Hampton, John Campbell, Ella and Muddy Waters.

Disc 4

Only order I have placed with them. When I placed the order they were $10 cheaper than Amazon but Amazon has lowered the price since then. I got impatient. They seem to be affiliated with Naxos USA.

https://www.hbdirect.com/ it cost a bit more than Amazon now lists but...................

disc 12 from this - Henry Cowell Sonata w/ Carlo Bussotti

Fine recording. My copy has a different illustration.

and there were 2 singles (both on 78 and 45) prior to that.

Both "The Fox" and the Hope trio sessions were initially issued on the HIFI label.

The bulk of my spam calls indicate they come from towns in NY (where I live) or MI (where I used to live).

Bruyninckx says it is Curtis Amy.

The cd twofer was titled "Workin' Out" and has Johnny Lytle on vibes.

My wife had the Pfizer and I the Moderna. We both got our second shot after one month.
