  1. Me too. Roscoe, Alvin and I are contacting everyone we can think of for photos.
  2. Did you feel the earth move?
  3. up - anyone? I think I paid $15 for a 1st stereo Liberty, but that was a few years ago. Not a bad date. I'd say no.
  4. I know you weren't. Just wanted to plug the band for what it did.
  5. The Miller "civilian" organization was a great dance band. No reason to dis them.
  6. You always could.
  7. Sorry I can't come southward.
  8. Like Art Blakey, in his last few years Red was very hard of hearing (you'd have to shout in one ear) - he depended on regular sequences/routines to keep from missing his cues. My guess is Benny changed something up.
  9. The 2 sessions per lp deal was mostly a New York indie thing. All the sessions I was aware of in Chicago pretty much went by the book on pay.
  10. One session to produce 15 minutes (or 4 sides in 78/singles days). If more music results, payment was to be paid for another session or overtime. It was common practice to allow use of alternates when metal parts wore out, hence 78s with different takes.
  11. You Euro folks won't be able to afford it. The exchange rate looks deadly.
  12. We just finalized the deal today. The original tapes will be here soon. It will take a few months to get everything together. I've waited for a few decades for this to happen.
  13. I am bringing up this old thread to announce that I will be issuing these historical recordings.
  14. Don't have the Mosaic but my version (TOCJ-1540) does not have any extraneous sounds beyond Hank's gulping.
  15. Most of his time is involved with waste.
  16. Richard IV Richard V Jack Six
  17. If he only didn't watch movies on some weekends....
