  1. Never warmed to the Savoy stuff and Trumpet At Tempo (Dials +) is a fine disc that benefits Tony Williams, a true jazz benefactor. All the others were probably dubbed from this cd.
  2. He sold the same transfers over and over.
  3. Nobody talking 'bout the Albert system anymore?
  4. Musta been the bad eye.
  5. We talking about record company execs and many customers here. Makes sense to me. There are more than a couple of universes out there.
  6. The Ammons in question was issued as an lp in 1967 but is a reissue of 78S. You will kick yourself and curse Verve when you go to their site and examine the contents of an Ammons disc called Young Jug. It contains 8 of the 10 tunes you downloaded plus 12 more. I can't believe they did this.
  7. Have not seen Vail's book but another shot from this date was on the liner of the Jazzland record.
  8. Understand they are selling the same product as BMG. The product is supplied by the original labels and it is up to them if they alter the packages in any way.
  9. Many have different UPC symbols. BFD.
  10. Me too. Great to read it again.
  11. Max plays his ass off during the concert, and gives us the first view of a "totally bebop quintet". Prior to this recording all commercial bop records included a "ringer" from the previous era. I would hope all really serious fans of the era would listen (and chart sequentially) the commercial recordings of the time. I have done this and it's really informative. I decided the cymbal playing on 52nd nailed it as Sid - that was my call. I still think it is Catlett on drums here though S Crouch and L Schoenberg think it's Max.
  12. I really disagree. We need "the music" and "the document". About 50 years ago Riverside did this and now Rounder has. We should say "thanks", not whine.
  13. This is a silly fight with folks taking sides with stronger opinions than their "points" deserve. If FD had used the word "context" there would be no problem from my point of view.
  14. Great news indeed. Thanks.
  15. Our everchanging plans call for us to show up early for dinner and good seats.
  16. The balance is on the 2 volumes of Three Blind Mice.
  17. He was cool to me.
  18. What was the one you told me at the club? Pick Yo' Nose? ← Sounds right. See ya Saturday.
