  1. Bringing this up to thank Mark again. Today I framed the two I received and they are wonderful.
  2. Still not enough material for a Select.
  3. I remember seeing him at the Jazz Showcase in the '70s. A notorious lp collector came with a huge stack of records for Joe to autograph. Joe was going through the stack and found a couple by the pianist Joe Turner and gave the dude "the eye". I saw the same guy greet Mingus with a stack of about 50 lps and around half way through, Mingus looked up and said "So, you can't say I'm not a nice guy"! Laughs all around.
  4. Check the weights and time on the USPS and UPS sights.
  5. Glad you made it thru another year. Just stop the political crap.
  6. Ira has repeatedly told me it is his favorite record. I have the 10 master tapes (2 inch, 24 tracks) in my basement. Maybe this year.
  7. What else you gonna do with the bucks. That's what I tell Ann.
  8. Confusion between "reissue producers" and the label's packaging. Not a clear path.
  9. The best of all possible worlds is a clear vinyl pressing with a green magic marker ring on the edge.
  10. The set is the size of a coffee table book and includes 125 pages of printed pictures and text as well as the cds. It weighs about 3 lbs.
  11. Gotta be ECM.
  12. Hagnes recorded for BN with Bud - '49, Blakey - '58, Jackie - '63, Andrew - ' 63 (twice), Jackie - '64. If you don't get "Hagnes" contact me.
  13. Correct.
  14. In the US, the owner of the copyright has choice of first issue. After that, all comers can get a license.
  15. An amazing package.
  16. Michael tried to find the missing tracks when I was interested in buying the session. My interest hinged on finding the unissued material. This was around 1975/76. Shortly after that Leiber/Stoller sold the Bethlehem catalog.
  17. Going thru some boxes of old stuff today and found a letter from John Litweiler postmarked December 4, 1972 (I was living in Madison at the time). The note ends with "Koester will record H. Threadgill, w. Fred Hopkins, McCall & Claudine Myers, piano. sometime this month". The date never happened, but it still sounds dandy to me. "Amina Air" seems like a nice title.
  18. Ornette owns most of that stuff.
  19. How did you get those nasty little stains on your shirt?
