    Jelly Roll?

    Please name the many places. I want to read.
  3. And I used to wonder how the "dark ages" happened.
  4. Give 'em ipods, cellphones and tell them Bill Gates rules the world.
  5. Yes it is a Brinkmann 4 burner. I paid more - that was the only photo I could find.
  6. You should love the original film. Kinda like a Dukes of Hazzard feature.
  7. Gerald Wilson "You Better Believe It".
  8. You mean there's only ONE answer? I didn't know that. I though diversity, even in music, was a good thing. There's plenty of people doing everything else, very few doing what Hank does. So I think he has the right to rely on his good taste, just as much as so many other artists have a right to rely on their bad taste. ← If I understand you correctly, my response is "HUH?".
  9. Remember, he's just a tall kid from Lansing. and I think I might have "emotional problems" if GregN turned out to be a relative.
  10. 'Cause I'm interested in them. This always makes me check out the classical page to see the rest of the new discs.
  11. I forgot you produced the Lonnie Johnson sessions.

    Gushee is a well established "academic" in the US "jazz academic" circles. He has not published much but is/was a very serious observer of early jazz. His pieces in the original "Jazz Review" established his reputation. I agree with Lowe about the Reich book but agree some nuggets can be dug from the "pile", as long as you recognize the pile. I do think it is time for Gushee to "publish or perish" if he cares to keep the reputation. I've heard rumors of books for years but my patience is running very thin.
  13. Are you implying Japanese soldiers are locusts?
  14. Probably in the same "mindset" as the folks over here who buy Chevrolets.

    I think you must know where that finger must go now.

    Chicago

    Which one? ← The real one, not the recent imposters. Jerry Vale/Chicago = same thing.
  17. Hank, all those chords are lovely and placed impeccably - why don't you EVER take a friggin' chance? Is "good taste" always the answer? Thanks for all the lovely music, and I mean that.
  18. Leonard Feather produced this session on the Wet Coast and all the tunes were written by Clarence Williams and Irving Mills.
  19. I might be able to find a "buggy whip" maker here in Michigan. Want the address? Almost like being in jazz indeed!

    Chicago

    Amazing no person has mentioned the "Chicago mob" connections to the group.
  21. WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!? At least part of the real world is reflected on CSPAN!
  22. Will she/he give you points as odds?
