  1. Met Jack Somer back in the day. Middle weight corporate record company guy with jazz as an interest IIRC. There were a bunch of those - they thought the "interest in jazz" would impress the suits above. As far as I know he did no harm and did some good.
  2. But I thought the JSP Patton was supposed to sound better. (Can't remember where I read this.) Never heard that. Anxious for more info.
  3. I advise any member to check out John's show. He as been a friend for 46 years and he was a "trusted adviser" for a long time. Glad the foot is healing.
  4. As someone working in record retail from the early '60s to the early '80s I might have a grip in this.
  5. I need a bumper sticker saying WWPS - What would Pops say.
  6. I remember the Mary Lou Webb, warped pressings issue. I finally got a copy from Cecil. All the best, young man.
  7. Ancient memory says it is the only one you need to hear. YMMV.
  8. Thinking about it and posting an essay for public consumption are very different things.
  9. That wonderful saxophone band! Hmmmm. I always felt Freddie Green was the odd man out on this date. It just didn't feel "settled" to me.
  10. Not to shit on the topic; I have lived with this all my life and have survived. My friends have survived as well. Each of us are on our own trajectory and will deal with stuff as it comes. Insecurities are nothing to sneeze at but this is not one of mine.
  11. We seem to have multiple versions/definitions of minimalism working here.
  12. Yes. Never saw the Mainstream.
  13. Hal Russell Russ Lutenbacher Shorty Baker
  14. Ah yes, the unexpected Bill Russell / Bob Shad connection!
  15. All of this seems like the Republican primaries.
  16. If you have "the right look" I might play.
  17. Agree this is a great session I remember my old friend Bob Porter complaining about having to edit out all the Freeman (unaccompanied) codas. Bob just didn't "get" Von.
  18. Had/have most of this set for years. I am not a customer.
