I don't remember that one, but will have to look through my Carson stuff - sounds like his kind of tune -

I thought this was about a Duke Ellington tune - haven't listened to that Doors version in a long time but as I remember it's pretty straightforward - did you have the window open? Maybe it was the wind and outdoor acoustics, which can wreak havok with pitch - -

bumping up for the night shift -

you could also call me up and play Oscar Peterson records over the phone - maybe him with Arturo Sandoval - I would become apoplectic - and live forever -

and than I'd be pissed of because you're not calling 911 - and than I'd feel better - hey, this stuff really works -

I'll have to go find my autographed copy of Mein Kampf -

I just do whatever the voices in my head tell me to do - sorta like Jeffrey Dahmer -

I hate you all - uh oh... suddenly I'm not feeling so good - Ron, would you call 911?

I just want to add that my previous post was in no way a criticism of Margaret's management of Henry Grimes, and I don't want it to be interpreted as such; I just felt that one nice thing about criticisms made in these forums is that they are usually direct, honest, and heart felt - and that they should be countered in specific, not general terms.

yes, Larry, thanks for saying that - Killian was a great trumpeter, nothing like Sandoval - a real player, musical and fascinating to listen to - there are also some good citations and analyses of his work in Schuller's Swing Era, as I recall -

"I only feel sorry for the few resentful sad sacks out here who go into attack mode after a few beers or because they're alone or they don't like women or whatever their problems may be." please spare us the gratuitous attacks on un-named figures, as this is exactly the kind of thing you are complaining about relative to your own relationship with Mr. Grimes. I'm sure you're doing a great job, but there are lots of examples of jazz mismanagement and lots of legitimate questions about the state of jazz employment -

I'm not a Van Dyke Parks fan - I find his writing to be too precious, reaching for a poetry he just does not get to -

the amp guys have a saying about keeping one hand on your nuts when you are handling high voltages, so as to stop the shock from passing through your heart - but as this was a baptism, that might have been inappropriate -

not sure - will take a look -

gonna bump this up - about to make a contribution to the karl Rove defense fund -

"me likey Duke" - nah, that's been used before - one suggestion I would have would be to find somebody who's still alive and who worked with Duke - but you better move fast as they're dropping like flies -

bump -

I agree - and it's interesting because a critic like Martin Williams, as I recall, downplayed Tristano et al's importance by saying that he thought they had little influence - and yet I have seen more than one quote from avant gardists citing the Tristano school as early inspiration (and Julius Hemphill told me he particularly admired Lee Konitz) - from what Julius told me he was as effected by the spirit of the music (its attempt to stretch accepted forms) as he was by the actual music itself, and that these guys represented an early attempt to violate jazz norms that was quite inspiring -

well, all of them were breast fed - too late about that now - but the mortality rate is high with that - and, as my mother told me - words to live a long life by - "Never take candy from strangers - unless they also offer you a ride."
