Chuck Nessa

Well, I'm back and the cds are here. Every order is packed. Some went out today and the rest leave in the morning. Enjoy, and thanks to you folks.

His music encourages people to buy trucks. Nuff said.

We returned about 5 hours ago. I've been hauling cds from our garage to the basement since our return (with rest periods here). I will post in the morning. Thanks, Dan.

I forgot to mention "Milwaukee's Best", near the bottom.

Geez, I went out of town and missed the party. Thanks to all, from the bottom of my heart, for this community. My days might be more productive (but darker) without it. Thanks Jim.

My father is 87 years old and always drinks 2 beers a day. He thinks the best beer is the cheapest. So.......when back at the farm, I have to drink Old Milwaukee or some other stuff. I get shit if I bring my own stuff - this means I'm dangerously close to being an alcoholic to him. I can't remember the $.99 per six stuff we bought in college, but it had the American flag on the label with the motto "It's Chemically Brewed"! Once while driving across America with my boss, we went into the motel lounge to find about a dozen truckers sitting at the bar. They were all drinking Michelob. The barkeep said "Michelob?". My boss said "That's a women's beer - they add lots of sugar to attract the ladies". I almost ran for the door. For cheap American beer I prefer Rolling Rock. Light, refreshing, not too sweet or filling.

Welcome! Glad you found us.

Thanks. I saw it just in time. We leave in an hour.

He's on the Uptown Mingus disc.

Concord was sold a couple years back to a group headed by Norman Lear. Not sure what has happened since.

When this record came out in the very, early '60s I played it in the store (you could do that then) and decided I did not need it. Have not heard it since. Us old guys can be jaded. Edit to correct the name: Synanon.

WTF!!!

Thanks, especially to Dan. We leave after work tomorrow and spend the night with our daughter Carla (my "art director") in the Detroit area. We will spend the next night in the Anapolis area then move on to Williamburg. I may post tomorrow, but "see ya soon".

Years ago I bought a "domestic" version of Lee Morgan vol 3. When I popped that sucker on I got a stupid "classical" disc of Frank Zappa, in spite of the BN label.

The big problem with these Burns projects is they get "taken as the truth" by millions of "ditto-heads". "Truth" soon become "facts".

It will be sold for the CCR recordings and the films (if included). Buy what you NEED soon.

The baseball series was ripped by all my sports friends.

Wonder if Saul would take my check and hold it for a while.

All the best Pops.

I had both of these on vinyl but my memory is faint. Dan, Strazzeri has had almost 20 lps/cds under his own name. Very interesting player.

Congrats, Dan. Welcome to the money pit. If you want hot water you will have to use the LEFT faucet.

Jack Goodwin, proprietor of http://www.warnemarsh.info/ , reminds me of another possible Marsh release: "Regarding the possible future issues by VSOP - they have a tape owned by Geraldyne Marsh of Warne with Joe Albany, Bob Whitlock and an unknown bassist recorded live at Dana Point, California in October 1957. So far no sign of a release date." Jack also kindly posted my release info in his "news" section.

Bauduc is the guy with his arms crossed, so.........

I thought it might have been personality conflicts. In 1982 I put together a band for the Chicago Jazz Festival that included Warne, Lou Levy and Jimmy Raney. You could feel the draft from Raney. I remember Lou asking Warne about it. They also played at the Jazz Showcase that week and Raney pretty much stayed by himself.

That's exactly what Gerry told me back in 1981. What was the problem?
