Chuck Nessa

In a conversation with Dan Morganstern I foolishly confused Frank Rosolino and Frank Rehak.

Heckman is one of the few published music critics with credentials as a playing musician.

No wonder you post that silly crap in the political thread.

Too late.

He might have all the "clues" and not like them.

Heard Morris a few times with Blakey and once with Bill Hardman at Slugs.

It is clearly audible on the current cd version.

Great friggin' sob story....................Just send me that check.

For "this band" I'm all over the Prestige sides. 'Bout time they were a "set".

From my perspective on M Krystal (after 20+ years listening), he's a very bright guy and a "more than competent" saxophonist. That's about as far as I'd take it.

Warner has been distributing Ryco and associated labels for a few years.

OK. Hello Mr Cynical.

Nah, the musicians need to be scared to death - afraid of messing up, missing a change, turning the time around and just not having an idea. Then you might get a great recording IF you have great MUSIC in you.

You can listen to the '50s stuff while scraping the bugs off your teeth.

COP-OUT!

You're preaching to the choir.

Alcohol, drugs or reality - depending on your relationship with each of these.

Why do you refuse to talk about his hair?

Barney Fife is a hero. Was Barney in Dingleberry or Mayberry? I can never keep that straight... And did you know that Charlene Darling was a jazz singer? YES.

Screw the literary questions. This thread made me dig out a concert recording of the band + guests Lacy and George Lewis (got it a few years ago courtesy of a member) from August of '83. All Herbie Nichols tunes for about an hour. Great stuff. I'd love to hear the band in a club.

Sorry to see Dan advocating dumping on a "dingleberry cop" for being one. I have much more sympathy for the state/local cops. They are the real "front line fighters" for the citizenry. Barney Fife is a hero. As soon as I heard this story I thought "this MF has been messing with his wife and she did what she thought she had to do to escape". Guess I'm either a liberal or a fag. We will see how the story develops and Danny boy can come back and beat me up for "whatever".

Need to spend a bit of time in a good studio Kevin. With a 2 track tape (even mono) and a good board coupled with a bank of "racked gadgets" behind you, one can do lots of shinola. I do agree "mix" is not the right word but one can change "perspectives" and divert attention elsewhere.

WORD!
