I heard some radio commentator say "Larry King tossed his first softball 50 years ago".

So, I'm a bad guy. I just did a search and found 7 topics/threads by typing in Patton. Anyone here like the Blue Note label or Andrew Hill? Is there some arcane courtesy demanding we go back to "point one" every time a new member asks a question? New people are our "lifeblood" but they should be smart enough to know that an existing bb called Organissimo might have covered this subject of John Patton. I recently bought a new car and (after being on a list for my previous machine) entered the world of Mazda owners. I would never think of jumping in with my first question without some research.

A milestone year for a milestone guy. Happy birthday Mark.

Thanks Tom. Anyone here like Andrew Hill?

Isn't that what you really want?

Nah, get one of these:

Only if he was 8 years old in 1973. Sorry, I was 29 then. I might have done violence on Dan anyway.

Nice shot.

Is anyone amazed they are booting music from the '70s? A pox on their customers.

No shit!

Thank you for the warm welcome Ritalin run out this week ? I think I asked a fair question. If I entered a bb called "organissimo" I would spend some time exploring. If not using the search function, I'd at least explore all the various topics and sub-threads. Sorry if I bent your corner.

No better way for him to leave.

Thanks Larry.

Then you go to Google and enter Organissimo Forums and type in John Patton. On the other hand, I believe the "disfunction" of the Org search function involves 4 letter (or fewer) words. Patton should return some results, though I admit I didn't try it.

Time to use the search function. Do you really believe stuff like this hasn't been discussed many times. This site is a great repository of organ related stuff and you need to explore it.

Wally World is always a good place to check for oop items.

And your relationships with your children are.................

Berigan, please tell me about your children and your relationships.

Saw him a number of nights at the Plugged Nickel in '64/65 with the quartet - not sure if this was 2 different engagements or one long week. I think 2 dates 'cause I remember attending with JR Monterose and without him . I also heard him at the Down Beat festival with Archie Shepp added ('65). Last time I heard him was at the Nickel with the Pharoah, Alice, Jimmy, Ali band. Spoke to him at intermission and he said he was sorry it cost so much to hear the band. Every gig was sold out set after set. Some folks walked out but their seats were quickly filled by people waiting in the street. The whole deal about the audience and Coltrane was exacerbated by the record marketplace at the time. Prestige and Atlantic were releasing old sessions at the same time Impulse was issuing recent dates. Prestige and Atlantic were old trusted friends to a segment of the record buying public and Impulse was a relative newcomer. As the result of this market penetration a number of people came to the gigs with a false impression of what the show would be like. As I said earlier, many folks were happy to find their abandoned seats.

As I understand, Baldwin had a "standing appointment" to call his daughter and this was (at least) the second time in a row she "stiffed" him. Not excusing his behavior, just adding some context.

Where is Lisa Nowak?

Isn't Move On Over the date with Nicky Hill?

Do you cover one ear when you "go mono"?
