This was from the Verve website, so I suspect it's not a Mosaic. The recent Mosaic/Universal deal had each outfit selling some sets.

I'm with Jazz Kat. Been trying to move files from an old windows 95 machine to my new device - shit be happnin' all over the place (files going AWOL, etc). I would explode if music was in the friggin' background. Music is for LISTENING.

Sittin' In is a masterpiece and Sweets (with Ben Webster) is not far behind. Beyond that I am looking forward to the Al Cohn side.

Somehow I missed this AOW post 'til now. It is an amazing group of recordings. Do we want to discuss the black/white conflicts implicit in this date? It is a huge question with resonance continuing today.

Ringing endorsement from Mr Ties.

As I said a while ago, "get out those credit cards"!

You have my sympathy but look on the bright side - you can get "more" for around $250 now.

Turd in the punchbowl time. The Cox dates should be shunted/offered to Water. They are not "first rate" and would not generate any profit, thus limiting "interesting" reissues in the future.

It can't be too far from home. Start walkin'.

My father used to have one. Not a problem to clean with soap and water. For more thorough jobs use stainless steel cleaner common in restaurants.

The American Federation of Musicians is a "traditional" labor union which negotiates fees, work conditions and wages for its members. Their national website is HERE and it may help with some questions.

Some confusion. A union card is issued to a member of the musicians union. An 802 card is issued to a union member belonging to union "branch" 802. A cabaret card was issued by the NYC police.

One possibility not mentioned is that Lonehill "created" the longer take via editing. There may not be a single new note.

Ah, he's just another small headed Hoosier. So, he's got a show. Big Deal. Thanks for a fine post and thanks for the intelligent selections.

Happity Barfday! B-)

The Stash cd mentioned is a reissue of a Spotlite lp. Spotlite may have issued a cd in England.

I still want to know about "ignorange". Do you have some secret way to remove this from the color spectrum? Or do you just hate Tennessee and some other teams?

Is this some sort of affliction where you can't see colors?

EVERYTHING. Now that you have the answer, go back to sleep. B-)

Happy to tell you I don't know about a reissue. I did buy the lp for $.79 in 1962.

This board will build a Mission near the Us/Mexican border within the next 24 hours. How's that for a fucking mission statement. I did not read any messages in this silly thread before my message. Have a troublesome life, like the rest of us. Everyone makes choices, some are errors and we move on. I am moving on and hope all is well in the morning.

I was going to mention this as soon as I entered the thread. You beat me to it, Allen, but I'll second your enthusiasm. A great record! Turd in the punchbowl here - I always thought this was a sad "good white guys doing a nice thing" record. So much "classic" Rushing to push, but this embarasses me.

I stopped reading all the "shit posts" (not wanting to build the thread view count) and have concentrated on music posts. Good luck to y'all. I do want to say two very different things. First, it's a huge loss for Brownie to leave. Second, a couple of "recent" members seem to be driving the controversry and I find this unfortunate. Back to music.

Don't ignore the Vanguard material. Also fine is his first Columbia lp The Odyssey of James Rushing Esq recently reissued on Collectables.

I have the 9 disc set and used to have at least one bootleg lp of the Australian stuff. I can't put my finger on the reason but sometimes Kapell really bugs me. The playing is usually very strong but there is something a little unnerving about his style. An interesting mid-century American, he.
