Never said anything that didn't need to be said myself! -_-

GO SOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oz is the MAN.

No.

I should say Uptown does not have it. I have not heard it but I know who has it. Clunky, the Fru 'n' Brew Uptown project is still possible but not a current priority.

A copy did survive.

Not very but I'm going to bed now. I hope I remember this thread in the morning so I can return.

You want humor, I suggest you try elsewhere.

That response deserves an explaination, if for no other reason than to find out wtf you think I intended.

Good and Bad things contained in that statement. -_-

In defense of Mr Thornton, burned copies have been floating around for a while - I've had one for a couple of months. Understand they came from "inside" to run up the "street talk" about the release. On the other hand I found new respect for Shadow from this performance. I was not a big fan before but he seems to be a "great" Monk drummer from this gig!

Now I know I will die from brass overload. Kinda' like kids and lead poisoning. Edit to say my above response was caused by Mr Tapscott's post.

Uptown's Bob Sunenblick and I (to a lesser degree) have been chasing this for many years. Lots of info, lots of dead ends and a bunch of stuff unconfirmed by circumstance. We are "on the case"!

Bertrand is correct. Relax and have a cool evening.

The two session habit is one of the reasons so many '50s/'60s lps time less than 40 minutes. This practice was widespread among "independent" labels. I believe the "free use" of alternate takes is/was "legal" by union agreement. This is a hold-over from the day's of 78s when the alternates were frequently used to replace exhausted masters. For musician/composers the up side is increased publishing royalties.

Ellington's Fargo Concert. One small correction; I only do work for Uptown - it ain't mine.

Different music from the same session: Mr. Lucky 11:50 Swinging the Blues 9:54 Polka Dots and Moonbeams 11:34 Have No Fear 12:30 Boomerang 5:59 The last track was not included in the lp version. $15 post paid in the US.

Not unless a check arrives in the morning.

I thought this band had a guitarist.

I know both Mark and Bob. AND the Whitehall, MI address rings a bell. Sunenblick started Uptown, Feldman joined him at some point, they "divorced", split some of the masters and moved on. I have told this story (in some detail) a couple of times. Maybe someone can dig them up.

Artistic repect from me. Personal respect is zero. He screwed me for about $400 bucks back in the '70s when we were both in Madison, and I think he's a great artist and personal creep.

Have a banana slide boy!

Kenny, that's because they edit out posts mentioning other BBs. I have been edited and threatened with expulsion on other boards for comments I made about "other boards" or about music by "clients" of the board in question. Worst I ever got here was nonsense from GregN.

Maybe it wasn't a "saxaphone" after all. Getting "real", let's try and help this person. I don't remember the late '90s, but some of you might.

Boy am I confused! One of these people is GregN? Which one?

No worries here.
