  2. The new reissues arrive via Candid.
  3. Bud Freeman & Bucky Pizzarelli Buck and Bud on Flying Dutchman.
  4. Red Ryder Ryder Trucks Derek Trucks
  5. Not now. If we can stop a great deal of the other shit - maybe. We have more important systemic challenges at the moment and in the end I do not trust a government entity to do the "right things".
  6. Sonny is happy Jim's happy.
  7. My first thought was Phil Seaman but doubt he had that gig.
  8. Where do you have him?
  9. Once in Manhattan (around 1980) I was in a cab headed south around Broadway/Park Ave near Union Square we were stopped in traffic. I heard shots and a guy ran towards us and slammed against the passenger door. Behind him about 6 cops were chasing. My heart almost stopped and then I noticed the film crew.
  10. Since it is 200 miles away, roads are icy and it is snowing here, I am missing Fred Anderson Brian Smith and Han Bennink tonight.
  11. Not certain but I think I remember Deagan ads featuring him.
  12. Looks like Red Rodney to me. Lower face doesn't look like Red to me.
  13. Great of Starbucks to recommend volunteerism as the unload another 5000 employees.
  14. That shot was taken by Ann Nessa.
  15. Two favorite Fathead memories; first at the Top of the Gate with Dr John backing Allen Toussaint and later at a Ray Charles reunion at the Chicago Jazz Festival. Ray, Hank, Fathead, Marcus and "Hog". An amazing experience. I wanted to add Don Wilkerson to the mix but Hank said "we don't have two tenor parts".
  16. Topic?
  17. The original cover did not feature Coltrane.
  18. pepsi always seemed too sweet. coke fan here.

    Dick Johnson

    A name so nice, he has to use it twice.
  20. Thanks to this thread for reminding me I needed to order Sit Down and Relax. Thanks to Newbury to shipping the disc today.
  21. You mention the "vast minority of the public". They don't buy jazz recordings. My disappointment is the willingness of jazz (or any other minority music) fans to sacrifice quality for quantity.
  22. Quite a few blogs are, but storage space for FLAC files will continue to be an issue. Also, until Apple makes FLAC compatible with iPods, I don't see it taking off in a major consumer fashion. The majority of the general public doesn't care about quality, they want quantity and affordability. It is easy to convert flac/wav files to mp3 for the ipod. If you don't want better sound, dump the flacs after conversion.
  23. It would not be a N. Kimball address - that was a Nessa address. When I worked at Delmark, Esquire was the English rep.
