it would be interesting to see the actual original contracts; from what I've been told, Stollman was very open about the terms, and the musicians agreed to them -

tell 'em Dan sent you -

thanks for the link, Jim, I will order that - and David was indeed one of the nicest and most open people I ever met, happy to talk about the "secrets" -

actually, if you order them, Jewel comes to your house and performs an un-natural act -

can't do that one - but will trade you the Braxton for your sister and two hardboiled eggs -

It would be nice to see Ralph more -

I promise I will be ordering one soon - as I hear it comes with a really nice jewel box -

released on Thalidomide Records -

"wonder how Dusty Groove goes about selecting (and then getting licensing rights to) certain recordings" I know exactly how they do it: eenie, meenie, miny, mo -

Coleman is a very educated player - interestingly enough, he is one of the few post-modernist (for want of a better term) horn players that I ever heard Barry Harris praise, for his harmonic acuity -

YOU GUYS WILL GET CDS WHEN I DECIDE YOU'LL GET CDS - DON'T MAKE ME HAVE TO COME BACK THERE -

do you have emails agreeing to the gig? If so, I would go to small claims -

hmmmm......finally somebody's offering me a reasonable deal - let me think about it a minute....... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sorry, changed my mind -

you guys are all un-worthy - go away and never darken my towels again -

"have...you heard...ze Ger-man band...." **** ****old beer hall song; heard in The Producers -

sorry, but you can't have the CDs you requested - (this message transmitted by auto-response)

Cedar was Al Haig's favorite contemporary pianist - next to Chewy, of course -

also, about Ribbons versus tube/condensers - my problem with ribbons on saxophone is that it seems to lose some body - whereas the condenser lets you hear the full texture of the horn - on brass it's a different thing, as ribbons won't overload so easily - maybe a bit bright with the Neumann, but that can be eq'd slightly -

thanks, would love to see the article - I recall he lived on Riverside Drive, I went to talk to him about the project he recorded for us - we were "Live" at the Knitting Factory - got there to do the recording and Mike Dorf, who had promised us plenty of setup time, had decided to rent out the room for a party - I was freaking out, but David got in there afterwards, and set the whole thing up in about 20 minutes and did a brilliant job (had Julius Hemphill on the date, came out as a CD a few months later) - incredible work - also, and I always remembered this, he was the only engineer I ever worked with who knew how to use compression on a jazz date - it was quite transparent, beautifully done. one thing I remember - he told me that night that he had made numerous recordings during the Civil Right era, of events, people, songs, etc - that had not, as I recall, ever come out - do you know what has happened to this material?

she did those country parodies - wasn't she married to Paul Weston (someone may already have mentioned this)?
