  1. Lots of back and forth over the decades but some time back he "unfriended" me, probably about politics.
  2. My favorite Jacquet disc on Black & Blue is the Midnight Slows recording. AFIK it hasn't been on cd. Great ballad album with Hank Jones, George Duvivier and J C Heard.
  3. Those were originally issued on "Soundcraft" reel to reel tapes - I have the set.
  4. LOL! The master tapes burned before the first cd edition.
  5. Haven't played Cecil's Leo records in a while.
  6. Equipment envy is fatal.
  7. "Lil' T" and 2 takes of "The New Message" were on the cd of Drum Suite.
  8. Any new material here?
  9. Thanks for the reminder. Haven't played that in ages.
  10. Ira and Von were the Chicago bop scene for me. I arrived too late for Nicky Hill and some others but.... Glad that Von led Ira back to me in Chicago as Ira said in the notes to "Circumstantial".
  11. Nah.
  12. Ira, Jodie and Wilbur were close friends. Glad Dan is still around. Lots of memories.
  13. That is my session. It is remixed and has a 9 minute bonus track on cd - and new notes by Ira,
  14. Sounds just like him. During one of my recording sessions, studio guest Don DeMichael shouted out "play bebop". Ira turned to the booth and queried "The tune or the style". Then he called Dizzy's "That's Earl, Brother". That performance is on the record.
  15. I already miss his phone calls.
  16. I hate losing friends.
  17. A couple of old friends on this one.
  18. CRAP.
  19. A few folks on Facebook are not being nice to him. Matthew Shipp started things off.
