Chuck Nessa

I would really like to meet that woman. She must be an interesting personality.

Yes, twice.

Rudy does the work.

Knowing Paul a bit, I'd say there is potential for 15 or 16 tomes.

IIRC, the premise of the 3 disc set was all the master takes. Unfortunately they screwed up and included a number of alternates.

First post is to sell, not discuss music. First post is to sell/trade $3 Concord close outs. Just thought that was funny.

I bought that sucker the minute it was issued. Loved the show, loved the show. Ah, silly youth.

Sorry if I missed my first version (intitial imprints are important), the Diz/Bird performance at Carnegie in 1947. I had it on a Roost lp then and a BN/Roost cd now.

I still have a few copies of that cassette and a copy if the cd. Nice date. Mars pushed the band in a more rock oriented direction after his work with the Waitresses and Psychedelic Furs.

I'm sure Big Al already knew this.

Geez, no mention of this female vocalist with trio:

I agree with Ed's assessment of this session but have to think there is/was more material recorded at the time.

Still available.

I know you are a sucker for compilations but it's best to hear Harry's songs in proper sequence.

Hal was a wonderful musician. I first heard of him on the Joe Daley record and caught the trio live in 1965. I next encountered him in a John Klemmer group around 1967. Get this personel - Klemmer on tenor, Bebop Sam Thomas on guitar, Malachi Favors on bass and Hal on drums! I think this band existed for only one gig, two or three nights at the most. When he attended university they did not have a percussion department so he got his degree in trumpet. He made his living playing drums in a dinner theater pit band. Hal assembled some wonderful bands and wanted to be a star. He thought our first record would do this and never forgave me when stardom failed to materialize. I miss the old fart.

Form personal experience, he's a very nice guy and a sincere artist. Just not my cup of tea.

Learn all the tunes by the Coasters and the Rays.

George was a black man and his beautiful partner was named Ekecta Twine. Real names as far as I know.

It all depends on the current profit and the "expected" profit. The buyers may consider themselves smarter.
