Too many pages!

Never forget Quasi has a familial agenda. Good for him, I guess. Not sure this helps his cause. Smarter folks abound.

Hope it's as good as the tooth paste!

No, no, no! It is a solo taylor session. You misread or I led you wrong.

Nice indeed. I purchased a German cd of this many years ago. The Taylor has not been on cd as far as I know. The other Taylor MPS recording was issued in Japan about 9 years ago. That is my second favorite Taylor band - other recordings on New World and Hat.

Never heard of PP, but feel an affinity. Been thinking of "cleaning stuff out" after dealing with the "leftovers" of my parents and my wife's parents. Ones treasure is junk for others.

Whoever, it is incorrect.

Not sure what you mean. ABC always owned the label.

Thank Jesus the world is fine now - shoes or no shoes!

Thanks for the remind. BUT there is a core of around a 75 they might always have available.

Thanks. It is a lovely recording.

Relax..........Just a kid and a cat. Happens hundreds of times a minute.

Never heard of her. Why are you drawing attention to her?

"We always pronounced it Abernathy". I hope someone gets the reference.

Thanks for reminding me.

Thanks.

I have had multiple conversations with Cecil beginning in 1970. I have always understood everything he said. My favorite "Cecil experience" was a limo ride, in Chicago, drinking cognac and talking about Wynton M.

Love 'em since the Monitor days, at least.

Whatever. BN did what they did. It was a wonderful thing. The remnants are being tossed about by the collapse of the recorded music biz. Mr. Not Was found a nice corporate home, in charge of an icon. He will never please everyone. He will never please himself and he will never please me. He only needs to please his boss so he can keep getting checks. Not a bad thing, not a good thing. Wish I had those tapes.

The new issue of Cadence has reviews of Roscoe's Before There Was Sound and Von Freeman's Have No Fear. There is also a short interview with Roscoe. Not sure why they couldn't do a thorough one, unless RM declined.

Cecil reveals more in his vague comments than many. I was bummed the 5 hours of interview, an early "come on" in the piece, turned out to be such a small part of the piece. I wound up wondering if Ratliff was wearing the "5 hours" as a badge of honor and didn't really want to share. This stuff drives me nuts.

He does and he is.
