Chuck Nessa

Roscoe's Sound Songs on Delmark is terrific too.

Rockland Palace and Howard Theater.

Very good.

I voted for "other" since my choice influenced by Dan's poll is pastrami and rye - mustard is just an added flavor to this combo. Second choice is the choc/pnb filtered through a peanutbutter cup. All praise to the Carnegie Deli and the Reese's folks.

They claim otherwise, but....................

I have absolutely no interest in this music. So, I'm an old fart for a bunch of you. B-) If I want funk, I go for the blues.

I'd be ready to hear a copy - I think the Schaap version is a crime. Have you heard what our Andoran "friends" have done?

Good luck to all concerned.

Been there, but it was better than the month I lived off a box of pancake mix. Ever made pancakes without milk and eggs.

You don't know jack!

That's ok, I got one without sticker, etc for $11.74 a few minutes earlier. B-)

FWIW, this record is one of the few recorded performances of the fine drummer J C Moses.

Isn't it time to feed the puppies?

I picked up a copy of this disc, it looks like a boot with no details of date or personnel , any one help me with these details,?? Yes, the cd is a boot. The only "real" copy of the lp I ever saw belonged to Roscoe Mitchell. You can find out the details HERE.

No. But I do get asked the question for some reason.

You can search for a vinyl copy of nessa n-3, or buy a cd from Dusty Groove by the AEC in the "Americans Swinging In Paris" series called "the Pathe Sessions". I think I mentioned this "way back".

Frequently I am asked "How do I/we make it to the next level". The answer never pleases. If you have a local following and want to move on you need to create a following at the next level. You must know there are 25 groups wanting the gig you dream of. If this means moving to a "larger market", you have to do that. No NYC clubowner is going to hire you 'cause you are the biggest thing in Cedar Rapids. You have to pay your dues at every step of the way. Most people choose to spend time/money with family and other obligations but those making the move, move on. It is as simple as that. Once again, Chuck is the turd in the punchbowl.

I just read that about a fourth of the German population wants the wall rebuilt.

He sounds wonderful. Isn't there a site where you can get samples? I never check samples, but All Music or Fantasy must have some.

"Silent trees" been falling around me for my entire life. I tend to notice them. Keep it up. you will feel better and "screw the rest".

Late in his career he played on a couple of "Swingville All Stars" dates for Prestige. One of them is hidden on this cd: Very worthwhile.

Where are all the Big !0 fans? Kinda' cool.

'Bout time. Steve and Hal are old friends from many years ago. Hal covered for me on my job so I could record Lester Bowie's Numbers 1 & 2.

Steve is an old friend from the beginning of the '70s from Madison. He started as a pianist and has taken up saxophones. Do a search on his name. He has stuff to sell.
