Chuck Nessa

This is not in the political forum, which was the basis for your post. I'm sarcastic, political, caustic, an asshole, etc. No question. I miss CA.

Hah. Wait until he finds out they don't allow ANY politics over there! what else does he talk about? Too "smart ass" times 2 Greg. Chris is an important person in jazz history. Leave "politics" for a minute and give him credit for his musical works. Music is the reason for this forum.

The project was shelved (for a while) when the other issue came out.

Nostalgia rules!

Chuck forgot to mention it but they are both sidemen on the Roscoe Mitchell disc. Guy Nah, I don't believe you... If this is the date I know of, there will be at least one surprising participant.

Group.

Interested parties can get this one from me.

I'm on the case!

Once I understood the choice didn't involve Teddy Wilson my interest dropped. Johnny Hodges and Teddy Wilson are both a cut above Gerald Wilson in my world. Not to say your world isn't better.

GM looks like Hugh Hefner in this pic.

Is it possible to attach a year for this event?

Money.

Happy Birthday to a good old mastering.

Captions please...... Deep Trout.

They throw out more than they keep. Not necessarily dictated by the collection at hand.

Don't give a shit. Don't pay for radio.

what projects do you have in mind? adroit as you and michael mosaic are, you should both be getting huge blank checks. Was never asking for money, just proposing the folks whining for stuff write a budget for the material they want. Never got any takers.

Maybe you should have bought some music by Frank and Don first.

Man Ray Ray Danton Shirley McClaine.

I thought this was going to be about a budget to RECORD some music. I've asked for this from "listeners" for years.

Ditto.

Gee Larry, I was agreeing with you and then you went into "green magic marker land". What a bunch of crap.

If you search for info on the author, I believe the following is true. He never heard of Warne while Mr. Marsh was alive. He heard a numbers of stories from a couple of self proclaimed "insiders". He decided there was a book in this story. From my perspective with "limited contact" with Warne, much of the book is speculation and third hand stories. I suspect one of the sources for the "semi-fiction" from a story about an event where I was a major player. As I said, he gets some stuff right but enough is "out in left field" to ruin the good stuff.

top of my list. was he as cool as his wonderful music? Yes he was but FIRST buy An Unsung Cat by Safford Chamberlain - not great, but honest. It is much drier, but truthfull. I was intrigued by the Cornelius book but was spoiled by knowing facts when he has the "Marsh character" saying things he would have never said. It is hard to take something seriously while knowing other things.
