  1. I'm with you.
  2. Just to make sure, this is the sax guy who plays really fast, right?
  3. FWIW "You and Lee" is one of the titles available for download on the Verve site.
  4. Good to see I made a couple of folks happy.
  5. The River was a ballet written circa 1970. There is a 40+ minute band recording on one of the "Private Collection" discs. In the notes Stanley Dance writes "First, he recorded the main themes as piano solos for the guidance of choreographer Alvin Ailey".
  6. I wrote to Tom Hull after that article ran and asked why Smalls hadn't been included. From what he said, it was below the minimum number of releases in the catalog. The 'smallest' label listed had 12 according to him. We have 9 (at least til September). I was a little disappointed not to see it listed, and now that you mentioned it, the other labels that were omitted as well. Luke ← Quantity always wins over quality. How would Dial have fared in 1950?
  7. I can be there in a couple of weeks. What brand of Scotch?
  8. If you nursed a single drink all night you'd be outta' here but the way you slug 'em down.................
  9. Though he's not the leader, do not ignore this wonderful date: -The Jo Jones Special- : Emmett Berry (tp) Bennie Green (tb) Lucky Thompson (ts) Count Basie (p-1) Nat Pierce (p-2) Freddy Green (g) Walter Page (b) Jo Jones (d) New York, August 11, 1955 Shoe shine boy (take 1)(1) Vanguard VRS8503, 662132 (CD), VSDF101/2-2 Lover man (2) - , - , - Georgia Mae (2) - , - , - Lincoln Heights (2) - , - , - Embraceable you (2) - , - , - Shoe shine boy (take 2)(1) - , - , - This record was my introduction to Mr Green and I never forgot.
  10. Another huge mistake Mooster!!!!
  11. Either cnessa@earthlink.net or nessarecords@earthlink.net . Thanks.
  12. Thanks Jim. It feels great to be back.
  13. I think we have found the root of the board problems. Ban Guy and all will be OK!
  14. This entire post is amateurish and embarrassing. Wayne is one artist I admire greatly from the last 45 years of the music, but you do him no favors.
  15. Is that the Mosaic box?
  16. Oh yeah - I didn't send yours.
  17. 36!!!! I have thousands of recordings older than that. Have a perfect day.
  18. So I guess when you pass thru here you will be buying. I'll be sure to bring along lots of cds for sale.
  19. Their Bethlehem list is kinda' depressing. Same old stuff. If they wanted to get our attention a few "oddities" would have helped. No imagination.
  20. I guess I should say here, the price is $15 post paid in the US with domestic postage deducted from the cost of "foreign" shipments. Fair warning - I will be away on a "vacation" June 10-18.
  21. I will pray for the best. Be strong and help your dad if he needs it.
  22. All orders "in house" were shipped today. Thanks.
  23. Black Saint is a through composed piece and one of the exceptions I mentioned meant to be edited from the beginning.
