Chuck Nessa

Joseph is 75 today and I just spoke with him. He is ok. I extend much thanks to Mr. Jarman, my friend since 1966.

I'm the same way with pianists who pick their noses and then go and put their fingers right on the keyboard. Nasty. I think I've mentioned before that I once saw organist Don Patterson play a longish solo with his tongue, in a convincing imitation of cunnilingus. That was also the first time I hear Von Freeman play. Quite an afternoon. That might be a reason Von declined a session with an organ late in life.

I completely forgot about sweater combos. Jan and Dean maybe?

Not as good as

Personal attack?

Thanks to all.

I will be really interested in a "tome" titled like that written by a black or a Nordic type. Message to editors: he has me blocked. I am really tired of having posts in his threads deleted

What Paul said and I don't care.

Go suck another prune.

Copy the messages to Google Translate.

I am out of town for a week, with limited access and this kind of question is what I dream of. Email me in 10 days if you want me to intrude.

And they in court trying for a larger piece of the pie.

Yes, it is amazing.

All orders have been shipped. Thanks.

$15 each in North America. I will quote shipping for elsewhere. Thanks.

PayPal works for nessarecords@charter.net . Thanks for asking.

Last time I was too impatient - do you take orders now and if so, how much for Early Combinations including shipping to the Netherlands? Taking orders. $18 delivered in the Netherlands. Thanks.

The new releases are supposed to be delivered in the morning, but we leave the next day for Buffalo and our grandchild. We will try to get any orders tomorrow and the rest will go when we return on the 14th. Thanks.

No matter the mastering, Pop's recordings have changed my life. No mastering engineer has done that.

Spotify and other streams don't pay shit. Only fractions of fractions of pennies per tune.

Hmmm.

Lest anyone is confused. The Chicago festival shows are free. I find whining unattractive.

I have the cd and only Round Midnight (5:10) and All the Things You Are (9:20) are on the disc. Misha plays piano and Rob Langereis is the bassist.

But it does demolish any legal logic used to justify this board policy. The point of the policy, I presume, is to immunize Jim from lawsuits lodged by copyright holders. But if the world's largest online retailer is selling the product, arguing that linking to such products will amount to likely lawsuits for Jim makes no sense. The point of a lawsuit is to obtain relief from harm; if nobody is bothering to sue Amazon, which is causing about 1,000,000x the harm Jim is in such a case...then why does Jim have anything to fear? It's asinine. This seems to be the "relax and enjoy it" answer.

I am curious if you were there or just read Reich. I have a number of issues with your post but do not have time. BUT: I am not a huge Vandermark fan but think he did a great job by presenting a number of players the audience would not hear otherwise. The New Jungle Orchestra was dandy - Pierre always outdoes himself. I think the number of "new faces" of real talent were worth a gazillion "name" retreads. I think the Grant Park facility is more intimate and "neighborhood" than Pritzker. Maybe more later. The discussion of fest funding is a much larger and more complex issue. Sand don't have anything to do with it.
