  1. First met him back in the middle '70s - very nice fellow. He was also a great accompanist as displayed in these discs:
  2. I am a year younger.
  3. Many posts by musicians and friends on Facebook.
  4. Don't know, don't care. I got the tapes from Atlantic - they were going to sell the masters to me after I delivered agreements with the artists. Before that was finished, their Japanese affiliate decided to start a series of unissued sessions and my deal was cancelled.
  5. Roscoe preferred them and abandoned the instrument when parts became difficult.
  6. Roscoe Mitchell played a curved soprano into the 1980s. He can be seen playing one on the cover of "L-R-G / The Maze / S II Examples".
  7. Ah, residual groove noise. Always a favorite.
  8. If you could tell us the title, label or tunes it would be easier.
  9. Nothing falls short. I just didn't like your post. Saw Dylan in a couple if interesting situations and rode the Clark St bus with him and Albert Grossman in '66 or '67. As a friend on Facebook posted: What's the world coming to when a brilliant artist who helped change American music, did things with words that weren't previously done in popular music, toured tirelessly for decades, inspired countless performers and songwriters, and is now pushing 80 has the audacity to sell his music publishing catalog for what the market will bear to the buyer of his choice while he's still alive, thereby saving his estate a multitude of headaches and possible acrimony. What an effing sellout!
  10. I bought mine in November 2019 from Amazon Global Store UK and it is a cd-r.
  11. I'm only 76 at the moment.
  12. It depends on your geek factor, but I find it fascinating. Now moving up a decade or two.
  13. https://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-xpm-1989-12-18-8903180919-story.html
  14. I had hoped to record Johnny Board back in the day. I used to hear him battle with Eddie Johnson at least once a week at Andy's. I shouldn't concentrate on regrets.
  15. To be correct, it is Duke, Duke, Duke, Duke of Earl.
  16. I tend to swoon when Fred plays clarinet.
  17. Magnetic tape didn't show up here until after WWII.
  18. Carl Jefferson was a friggin' Lincoln dealer. That should tell you something.
