Chuck Nessa

Don't have the guts to slit my wrists.

See the recent Signal to Noise review of the Congliptious reissue. Hard to find at the end of the reissues page. and...I've received complaints on this board about my upcoming Bowie reissue with all the material. I'm going broke delivering the music and no one is happy.

Gopherit. Then you can get the complaints about adding too much music.

Just returned from an amazing set at the Velvet - Fred Anderson, Kidd Jordan, Harrison Bankhead, Henry Grimes and Muhal Richard Abrams. They played an hour set and took a break. We had to leave then but ran into Oliver Lake on the street heading in with his alto. The place was jammed.

Yeah, we were all making jokes about that. WTF!

Maybe another 3 weeks. Thanks for asking.

yup

None of this matters.

Let's see - organs/bones - WTF! Stand over there mister.

Fair scan, but the surrounding color was white. Photoshop should fix this.

no

bucks talk, emi walks.

Checking mine, I see you are correct. The lp was issued over 10 years after the session. This was recorded as a Bud Powell date - a companion to the Portrait of Thelonious disc. Don was a sideman.

We all understand the "vague" part of your recollection.

Remember to thank me for the Harold Land Folk Music date.

U da MAN!

Rainbow or King?

When the LP was first released, it was billed as Don Byas / Bud Powell, and Byas's portrait was on the cover. As Marty pointed out, that is the back. Bud is on the lp cover.

Actually, we was in the control room. Ann and I came late after a night of Tim's band in Muskegon. I think we got there for the 3rd tune. Wonderful to find this fine music in our backyard.

I hope John didn't steer you wrong. :-)

Not really the point.

Not many sessions but I put forth Garvin Bushell. He recorded with Jelly Roll Morton and John Coltrane (at the Vanguard). Pretty damn amazing.

Leaving on the road early in the morning. I just can't pull the trigger on Sangrey's recommendation of a McGriddle.
