  1. We are doomed.
  2. The "Capitol Paris session" is really a United Artists session, first issued as a UAJ lp.
  3. I've done this before on some board: Lucille Rollins Dolly McLean Lorraine Gillespie Laurie Pepper Sue Mingus
  4. Nah. Just an expresion.
  5. Working my way thru the Arista Braxtons.
  6. Apples and oranges. I'll take this over any Ayler and almost any Ornette, and any late (post 'Transition') Trane except maybe 'Meditations', but they're very different things. Not for me.
  7. Depends which are upgrades and which are new to you. Not to mention personal taste.
  8. Who was ahead of them on the same curve? I ask to make sure I'm not missing anything from that period that I will want to go back and check into. Did not care about the "same curve". This was after late Trane, Ornette and Ayler. Them's the curves.
  9. They seemed "behind the curve".
  10. Yes--and Chuck's posted some memories from Monterose's early-1960s Iowa days. (Wasn't Nelson Algren teaching up there around that time, too?) I was only able to get up to 1964 with this show... will probably do a sequel centered around the later recordings somewhere down the line. Yup. JR was a big influence on my life. If I live long enough, I'll tell some more stories and will hope I don't offend any members. He had a bunch of "perspectives" to give.
  11. From (failing) memory I say no. The remaining tracks are from a quartet by Q and the rhythm section. They were on the BN cd called "Easy Living". They might be elsewhere in the BN/Mosaic world. The titles were: I've Got A Crush On You Easy Living Nancy
  12. Bought it when it came out. Never understood the reputation (considering all the stuff going on at the time). Nice record. That's all as I see it. Musta' been wonderful for "those Californians".
  13. With the death of Tower and the purge at the top of EMI, I suggest we all hold our breath. When the hammer comes down the little people go first and at BN everyone beneath Norah Jones is little people. It could look alot like BMG/Sony in a month.
  14. Sorry to say the only time I heard her "in person" was with the last John Coltrane band at the Plugged Nickel. Last time I saw her husband too.

    Can't help but remember selling him records in Bloomington. He was the "hip" jazz student on campus at the time. His reputation at the time was connected to his brother being on the first BS&T record. Very sorry to hear of his departure.
  16. Ditto on all counts. Nice to see this thread back up. I listened to the first 4 records last week and was pleased again. Thanks to Pres, Potts and Norman.
  17. The Mosaic set had the following additional tracks: Beat-up team (second version) Cow cow blues One doggone reason Strange woman too It hurts me too Baby child (take 5) Talkin' the blues (take 1) Talkin' the blues (take 2) Can't stand your evil ways The girl I love Bad condition Come day, go day (take 2) Come day, go day (take 3)

  19. All the more reason to try and convince him to have them published in book form. Maybe we'll have to stage an intervention. You go first.
  20. I'm still getting 5.99.
  21. Somewhere I have a full sheet of Ellington stamps. It was a birthday gift from my parents.
  22. What Larry said. I would love having this stuff in book form - I'm weary of slogging through stacks of magazines to find the piece(s) I want (I don't have all of them). I understand Terry (probably my best friend) has other priorities but I regret the situation.
  23. Some jazz score, some doesn't.
