  1. Not since 1949 when I ran screaming to escape The Wizard of Oz. I still get chills when I see women with green skin.
  2. After 3 or 4 Webers, I tired of messing with the coals and bought one of these:
  3. I almost deleted my post, not wanting to dampen your enthusiasm.
  4. Unfortunately the current Collectables issue omits 10 bonus tracks used for the Atlantic cd set. The Atlantic set combined 3 lps and the Collectables only has the 2 Atlantic lps. The 3rd lp was a Reprise record called Greatest Hits Live. This included a wonderful version of the Black and Tan/Mooche/Creole Love Call medley. As the linernotes mention, Don't Get Around Much Anymore is a studio recording. To my knowledge, nobody has pointed out Satin Doll is a studio recording as well - it is the same as the recording on Ellington '66.
  5. Of related interest: Sam Margolis Quintet Melody Lounge. Lynn Mass. 11 October 1953 Dick Wetmore, tp; Sam Margolis, ts; Richard Twardzik, p; Whitney Cronin, b; Jimmy Zitano, d. unissued * Theme (unidentified) * Jumpin' at the Woodside * Mean to Me * Stompin' at the Savoy * Ballad medley: Laura (Twardzik with rhythm)/ Body and Soul * Caravan * Round Midnight * One o' Clock Jump * Theme
  6. Brew Moore, Don Byas (ts) Bent Axen (p) Erik Moseholm (b) William Schiøpffe (d) Concert, "Casino", Aarhus, February 11, 1962 Lester leaps in Jazz Mark 101, Vantage LP504 If I had you (db out) - Take the "A" train (db out) - Topsy (db out) - Note : See also under Don Byas, rest see November 1962. Brew Moore Quartet : Brew Moore (ts) Harry Goldberg (p,alto-hrn-1) Niels-Henning Ørsted Pedersen (b) Alex Riel (d) Telecast, Malmö, November 1962 Scrapple from the apple (unissued) Ergo Jazz Mark 101 My funny Valentine - Manny's tune (1) - This record was quickly withdrawn after complaints from SteepleChase's Nils Winther who had a contract with the Moore estate.
  7. Indeed it was!
  8. Yes, I saw that on the Amazon site a few days ago. I only need volume 6 to complete the set.
  9. Happy Birthday Jim! Sounds like a very fine day ahead. See you tomorrow night at 7:00.
  10. I have all the 78s and the cd so I dumped the Mosaic. I really love these dates.
  11. I sold my set after gathering all the included albums either on cds or on Lps. The sonics of this Mosaic weren't something to rave about, imo. At least one cd was mastered off an old Lp, clicks and all. Don't remember hearing one was a dub. Do you remember which one? FWIW, I have the material otherwise - not the Mosaic.
  12. Short answer is the Brunswick an Victor recordings were recorded in better sound. Second part of that is the Victors cover a longer time span and more material. This is desert island stuff for me. If you want more info/opinions email me.
  13. Most of my memories are from Sid's show. Never saw the Andy stuff. He was a serious man of comedy. One of the best.
  14. It's the 1927-34 stuff I want.
  15. You have a great set at a great price. Wish I had it.
  16. It's probably the best Duke Pearson record ever issued.
  17. Does the phrase "ancient to the future" ring a bell?
  18. Didn't he marry Frankenstein in a movie?
  19. Since you don't understand me I'll go away. Forget I ever posted here. I supervised lp mastering and pressing for over 20 years. I might have some info. Mastering engineers I've dealt with include Bob Ludwig, RVG, John Bittner, Roger Seibel, Bob Fine, Joe Wells and a few others. Pressing plant quality is a very different thing. Mastering and pressing do not have anything to do with one another. No mention of plating companies? Please tell me about those guys. That is where "pressing noise" originates.
  20. Why do you trust Hoffman and why trust the mastering engineers at Classic. If you want the vinyl, buy the vinyl. Lots of shell games going on in the "vinyl" world.
  21. It is even more complicated than that. The current RVG duplicates the original lp and adds 2 bonus tracks in the form of alternates of Carolyn and No Room For Squares.
  22. Wait, you saw Getz at a Burger King? ← He was doin' fries and rings.
  23. I prefer burning accordians and banjos.
  24. I voted for Discovery only 'cause after this disc and a couple of Hamilton sides, I quickly lost interest in his work. He's obviously a fine musician but not my "cup of tea".
