Chuck Nessa

Didn't I read this piece a while back? Anyway, he was an interesting actor and seemed to be a positive human being. I wish him and his wife all the best in their remaining time on the planet.

Hope you have/had a great day in Libertyville!

Indeed.

I have both. The cd is a "needle drop".

He's on a half dozen SteepleChase dates including this one.

As one of the few (only) people here who had any relationship with Mr Thompson, I abstain.

Try Louis Armstrong, Coleman Hawkins, Charlie Parker, Ornette Coleman, Cecil Taylor and move on. Good luck.

Yet no person denies the discoveries of Herman Blount and Don Herbert.

For those wanting more info on our host: Here

Seems to be an "upstate" favorite.

She doesn't look like one of the Kelly clan.

We be doomed!

yep. me too. Time to pick up that Streaming CD! So, we can stay at your place?

Let me add the Mosaic Roy Eldridge set if you include the first 2 discs. Those contain my favorites by far.

Ann Arbor in October for me.

Lonnie won the "talent deserving of wider recognition" in the DB Critics Poll that year. 1969 Down Beat Readers Poll. JOS 2595 Larry Young 554 Groove Holmes 249 Shirley Scott 163 Al Cooper 150 Wild Bill Davis 144 Don Patterson 122 Jack McDuff 116 Brian Auger 91 Steve Winwood 79

Small correction Laz. Muhal found Scales for me in 1966. I had asked about him and Muhal responded by bringing him to the JRM where I worked at the time. The last time I saw/heard him was in the early '80s and he sounded good.

Here's a later portrait.

What Dan said.

Already mentioned him, you knucklehead! Mentioned him along with Don Herbert! Yet I can't find that post... See post number 2 above.

Did you pay extra for that option?

If so, I'm actually stunned that there hasn't been more buzz about this. I thought the "lost" tapes were indeed lost. Damn, too bad those four tracks couldn't be added to School Days! You really need to git a grip or a discography. Or an understanding of "rights" and copyrights and the legal crap from the original owners. If this is "legal" I will buy it.

Indeed.

30 years ago I had a 2 lp set of (supposedly) everything Grieg wrote for Peer Gynt. The music was conducted by Peer Dryer (?) on the Unicorn label In fact I worked for the company at that time.
