Chuck Nessa

Sad indeed, but his most lasting impact should be as a photographer. Films were frosting on the cake.

Sounds like you got some really, really good shit. Wanna share?

They lost many/most first generation masters of the era. Many Atlantic cds originate with the lp "production masters" and master copies sent to foreign licensees.

Yes. Dizzy and Rollins each made recordings there.

Yes, this calls for something really special!

I'd guess you are remembering Don DeMichael's liner notes for the '70s 2 lp reissue.

Rudy told me the Sabu date was his first stereo session for BN. The Manhattan Towers sessions were recorded by Rudy. FWIW, the stereo master of Palo Congo sounds like crap compared to the mono.

Well I've been searching for another fairly recent "relatively long" thread about Horace's "money grubbing" tactics and $80 t-shirts, $$$ for autographed photos, etc I can't find it. After what I thought were multiple threads that talked these issues to death, your new one set me off. Missed the day you earned all the respect. Sort of like the day I missed why you say "Don't like this either. Somehow I'm not surprised".

Try HERE

Yeah, you're baaaaaddd! This thread was started in November and has been active today. Not really hard to find.

I think it's spelled "dood".

Don't like this either. Somehow I'm not surprised. You don't know what you're talking about and have obviously missed earlier discussions of Horace and his website. A quick search should be enlightening. Give me a break! I've known Horace for 30+ years. edit for stupid spelling error

I'm with Jim here, with the exception for the Lee/Jackie tandem - they be wonderfull too. But I'm not so "tenor centric".

Mr Ned Goold seems to have run away without defending his position. Come back and defend your life.

Gimme a break.

Do you consider this "growth"? Or is it a passing "phase"? How exactly do you relate to music?

I alway thought Harold looked (spookily) like Richard Nixon at the piano.

Hopefully an interesting side note: This was in the first Liberty distributed release from BN. Still BN pressings and covers. I remember the salesman visiting the JRM and giving me a promo. Can't be too many "real" BN copies out there.

He seemed to be a good guy and better player. I hear he had ballooned to almost 400 lbs. Not a good thing. Sorrow all around.

So, is this considered a group "reunion"?

Absolutely! And be well my friend. I've missed you here.
