I had trouble throughout the day. OTOH, I frequently have trouble throughout my days.

Whooping Construction Sandhill

Agree Me just wants to new issues of great bands with great musicians Top of the list would be Mat Maneri's Quintet with Oscar Noriega, Craig Taborn or Kris Davis, Ed Schuller and the great Randy Peterson. Remains the most exciting and invigorating live ensemble I've seen over the past 3 years. Then put up some money and do it. That's how I started my label.

Crap!

The red label was the first 1000 but the blue label is a 100% better mastering.

Andy Devine?

Sorry.

Doubling up from the classical thread:

Wish I still had that one.

the title was mine.

Is the Lacy "Scratching the Seventies" that hard to find? When it was offered it was really inexpensive for a package mailed from France. I received mine on August 1, 2003 and this is during a time I had no money to spend on "extras". Maybe they underpriced it and .... If that was the case they would have reissued it.

Back in the olden days when Uptown records was operated by 2 guys they frequently recorded a Christmas tune at the end of a session for future release. The 2 guys divorced and formed Uptown and Reservoir as individual operations and they split the unissued masters. Bob Sunenblick's Uptown issued a Christmas cd and Mark Feldman put a holiday treat (Sleigh Ride) on Ralph Moore's Round Trip.

Pull this!

What Ubu said.

That illustration reminds me of the ones that King did of Grant Green LPs in '79/'80. Is it the same artist? MG The King Grant Green illustrations were done by Toshio Fujiyama, per Discogs. I can't find the illustrator for the Hall. Fujiyama is also the illustrator of the Jim Hall cover. Ah, there we are then. Thanks Paul. MG You have a pretty good eye. But they are all imitation Warhols.

Questions like this can usually be answered by buying the damn recording!

I am irritated by all.

I am grateful for the link to the NY Times piece. I had missed it.

Difficult to discover but it was buried here:

Met him a couple of time in Chicago. He did great work. Nothing more to say.

Thanks. I have not mentioned the Roscoe release 'cause it would seem self serving. It is a fine recording.

LOL!

um, over the hill.... there was a surprise over the hill. :-)

I must have about 50 (as yet unplayed) cds here. I might catch up with the 2013 issues in a few months.
