  1. Can't speak for anyone else but I am eternally grateful for the Centennial box. I would have paid the price for the first dozen discs alone.
  2. I seem to remember something like this. Hmmm
  3. Just burned a cdr of this
  4. Hope you paid up.
  5. The other side is a Freeman feature on Von's After Dark.
  6. Hope the ducks line up. Looks like you will have room for a few hundred of 'em.
  7. It was an interesting event and we chatted afterward.
  8. I would have preferred Stanley Cowell.
  9. Sounds interesting. Glad to hear Dwight is continuing down the music trail.
  10. Ken spread the money around. No problem there.
  11. Ken, the money he generated and the way he spent it was very important, but the scene is/was much more complex than that. I can't imagine the current trio of Ingebrigt Haaker Flaten, Avreeayl Ra and Nick Mazzarella without the Velvet decades earlier.
  12. I was not speaking of Fred's artistic influence but the effect of the Velvet. Maybe the view was different from elsewhere.
  13. Social/racial.
  14. Distinct identities.
  15. A huge catalyst was Fred Anderson and the Velvet Lounge. The Velvet welcomed North sider, South sider and Euro improvisers. This combination plus Fred's encouragement of young players created an interesting brew that continues today.
  16. wish I still had the India Nav vinyl.
  17. I always try to buy one of each.
  18. :-)

  20. They miss the state of suspension and a couple more.
