Hey man, who you callin' a HO? Check your head.

Friend of mine had a couple of those. Said they were tasty.

ROAD TRIP!

Just what he could expect at the time.

and a Snickers was a nickle at the stores charging full price. A new car was $700. AND, he was a local artist at the time.

This looks like a gig contract. The record was recorded on March 9 and the contract starts on the 11th.

Blue Velvet from the same session is magical as well.

Has anyone heard this project?

Get it - quick!

I met her XX years ago and while having a drink I mentioned how much I admired (and tried to emulate) her first husband. She said "Yeah, he was my idol too".

In 1963, or thereabouts, I was at the U of Iowa and one afternoon wandered into the "literary" bar for an afternoon beer. The only customer patted the bar stool next to him and motioned for me to sit. It was Vonnegut and I was an English undergrad. He didn't know me, he just wanted someone to interact with. I sat at the stool for a couple of hours, drank beer and do not remember anything we discussed. What a loss.

I echo most of Brad's post with a wish the MFin' Imus stayed on the air, at the same stations to "pay the price" every day for as long as he lives. I will miss the MSNBC show 5 days a week.

Thanks. I was perplexed about the writing in my genes. This went away as soon as I put the sucka's on.

From behind.

Indeed. She is an interesting figure. I'm glad she lived and I'm glad I met her.

Recently a member asked if I had any pictures from the "Maze" session and I realized I should have used the lp photo for the cd issue. Then George Lewis contacted me about reproducing the shot in his history of the AACM. George wanted a high quality scan and I ultimately contacted Mark Sheldon for advise on a scanner. My new scanner arrived Monday and I have been learning to use the device. Anyway, here is a reduced version of the scan. Not sure how the formatting screw-up happened, but you get the idea. More importantly I neglected to say Ann took the pic.

I'm sure your confusion has deeper roots than that memory.

Also recommended is Budd Johnson's Ya! Ya! recorded at the same sessions.

He is outstanding on Hal Singer's Blue Stompin' and Coleman Hawkins' Hawk Eyes. Both are from 1959.

The "fiasco" was the politics/egos/bs involved in the delays of issue. Probably to long and involve to get into here. Enough to say Bob Belden and the label were "abused" by the "estate".

Is Lee Konita a "Spanish" singer? How did she make a recording with Bill Evans?

Jingles singer in Chicago for about 25 years. Married to pianist Bradley Parker Sparrow. They own a recording studio and put a bunch of stuff out on their own label and studio called Southport. Google should turn up a bunch of stuff.
