  1. Please...................
  2. I am amazed.
  3. My answer is no. This has been reissued and has been available for download. Better to leave it in an "archive".
  4. Thanks for the kind message. I only stated the truth from my perspective. This thread was started today. Should I have done something else? Is it really important to you I know what's in your archives?
  5. What a wonderful concept. My father watched the "drug" edtion of the PBS "history" and decided he was rignt and I had wasted my life on "drug addicts". Go for it Mr Southern Indiana.
  6. The only "real deal" is your approach to music. If you are a "music" fan, sound/styles don't count. If you are into the music as a social/nostalgia thing, there is another standard. We have both here. No need to choose sides. We can tell.
  7. I have seen Jim with monkeys and am sworn to silence. That's the only reason I'm not banned.
  8. Sal Mosca Music (Interplay 7712).
  9. Saxes Inc was reviewed by Ira. BTW, in another thread I pointed out DB gave Ellington's In Orbit 2.5 stars. You gotta know the reviewers, the context and the music. Who were the best of the reviewers in that era? Who are the best since then? The real answer is "who matches up with my tastes most often". One thing you might not think of is the reviewer's friendship with the artist or producer. So, they are all good if you know your shit.
  10. sonny and shorts were chicago favorites. god bless.
  11. DB reviewers, at any point in that mag's life span, were a very mixed bag -- some trustworthy and at best quite insightful, others close to or utterly worthless. Do you know the name of the reviewer in this case (or perhaps this was when they went by initials only, e.g. D.C. for Dom Cerulli, M.W. for Martin Williams)? As a faithful reader of DB in that era, I could give you a pocket estimate of that reviewer's competence and prejudices. Saxes Inc was reviewed by Ira. BTW, in another thread I pointed out DB gave Ellington's In Orbit 2.5 stars. You gotta know the reviewers, the context and the music.
  12. Many thanks. That is fine indeed.
  13. Just another Hoosier.
  14. No time to sort it out, but a bunch of misinfo here.
  15. I always thought both dates were stupid "producer's dates". YMMV. Why give money to creeps for bad music?
  16. Think I paid $4.98 plus tax for my copy. Sold it for a bunch and bought a TOCJ.
  17. We all do.
  18. President Ralph Kaffel.
  19. No inside joke and he did drive for Duke.
  20. The song credit to B Traut means it was a Chicago session. Bill Traut was a local agent/entertainment attorney/producer/label owner. His son Ross is/was a talented guitarist. Bill owned the Wooden Nickel label and shoved pablum down the throats of a generation. One night in a bar he said if I called him in the morning he could give me a phone number I needed. I made the call and received a bill for $75.
