Hugh is also a very warm fellow. This shot is from a Roscoe Mitchell concert in Houston, Fall of 2013.

Exactly.

All of the Impulse mono issues are fold downs.

Stitt was called String (short for string bean) because he was so tall and skinny.

Forgive me but he's one of my old favorites. He also has contributed some wonderful pieces to the New York Review of Books. He had a famous print fight with Brendel. A google search will fill in holes.

Crap.

Thank goodness I have the Rhino version.

I forgot Debussy and Chopin.

Bach, Beethoven, Liszt, Schumann, Webern, Schoenberg, Stravinsky, Carter - what else?

I really enjoyed Cowell with Art Pepper in those live recordings on Galaxy. Met him in the mid '70s and liked him a bunch. We both suffered the same skin condition.

One of my customers received a Sullivan without a disc. Please don't file it away without checking - I know you collectors. :-)

Ira Sullivan just ordered 60 pieces.

The 9.6 minute "Blues for Johnny Bratton" could not have replaced the 6.3 minute "Monday's Dance" for simple physical reasons - the program was already long and the extra minutes would not fit on an lp. I think Ira's "multi-tracked" performance is just dandy. Hal was a "band leader" from the early days. Hal's admiration of Artie Shaw and Jimmie Lunceford raises it's head. How many musicians are "informed" by Shaw AND Ayler.
