Chuck Nessa

It was recorded in a NYC studio. Of course. Thanks Chuck. as was "At the Five Spot".

It was recorded in a NYC studio.

Back in 2000 when "At the Five Spot" was announced, I asked Ben Young (producer of the reissue) if "In Kansas City" was planned. He said "not currently". He said they decided the Five Spot name had more commercial potential than Kansas City. He did say it was unfortunate because there was "a bunch of extras" from the KC date.

Well, I got an enigmatic reply from Ira: "Ah, you see, I never mentioned a trumpet."

And your choice of weapons?

Where's the beer opener. Guess I will opt for the the Exabyte transfer since I can't locate the RVG master right now.

I suggest starting with "Kenton Showcase". It is from the '53/54 era and has arrangements by Russo and Holman. This is a good example with some fine soloists. Then, if interested, move forwards and backwards - one step at a time.

Please don't tell me you are still stuck with Detroit iron?

Stick it in your ear.

WHATEVER! This is a fine disc.

So now we have a silly girl.

Wow, that's not nearly as bad as I thought... And all the time I thought it was a typo of "puller" as in "pud puller".

What a bunch of silly boys. The real cookie is the trefoil (aka shortbread). They melt in the mouth with a nice butter/sugar flavor. At Thanksgiving we bought 6 boxes from our step-grand-daughter (is that a word?) and left them in Buffalo. Damn!

Alvin Fielder is a great guy, musician and pharmacist. What more could you want?

I didn't get around to emailing Ira until about an hour ago. When I hear back I'll post the results.

This stuff was originally on Pacific Jazz.

My apology to Mike Weil - my first edition of the book reads as Mike says. In my haste I was befuddled by a page turn. I think John L's "on the other hand" interpretation is the most likely.

Geez!! This is all news to me. Please post a review after playing it.

Bill, thanks for the mini report. More in the morning? Joe, don't get me started.

I don't get it. Someone pisses on your leg and then says "I will do something else next time" and we say "good going"! What am I missing?

I am "a plain-jane snivelling LURKER".

I think you know "where the sun don't shine". Take your head out, and put this post there. Let Deep defend himself and start a new thread.

I used to have the original lp, but sent it to Japan for "big bucks" about 10 years ago. It is fine, but unless you have 5000 jazz cds, you don't "need" it.

I will copy and paste this to Ira.

How many jazz bbs give you this kind of service?
