Chuck Nessa

That is all I have to say at this time.

Good news!

A couple popped to mind:

I can't seem to find a link to Southport Records anywhere, Chuck. Do they have a website? Southport

My friends Sparrow and Joanie produced a dandy cd titled FIRE with Von Freeman. This is a great opportunity to hear Von in a new context for most of you. He plays great and the context gives hint of the "greater Von". Many other fine Chicago musicians available in the Southport catalog. Check it out.

Saw his show at the Chicago Jazz Festival a couple of weeks ago. It was good but not great. His guests were Marc Ribot and Don Byron. The audience loved it as the finale of the fest. I have much fonder memories of a show at "the Top of the Gate" around 1980. The guests that night were Fathead Newman and Doctor John - dang!

I am curious about the year you made this discovery.

So the 50 were already chosen?

I have a finger and it is free. If you object, I have one for you too.

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.
