Good question. The proprietor certainly hasn't contacted the musicians with any payment plan.

Unless I'm mistaken, every musical number performed for the other recipients was uncut. Every piece performed for Sonny was chopped up. The pieces should have been 2-3 minute selections, arranged accordingly so they could be complete. Never realized how much Herbie digs Neil Diamond.

Worst editing job EVER.

Johnny Carisi was well respected by Dizzy. Read what he has to say about him playing at Minton's in To Be, Or Not To Bop.

Most definitely Junior Cook.

Correct on Dennis. Chuck you're probably the first person to guess this one too:

Georges Simenon

Probably came up with Frank Foster in Ohio.

That sounds like a great show, all 3 at their peak. And you live in Brooklyn and attended IU with two friends of mine (I mentioned this to you some years ago at Smoke--I can't remember who you were playing with--maybe George Coleman?). Don't remember who the two mutual friends at IU were but I played at Smoke with George Coleman in 2000. Louis Hayes on drums.

Saw MO in a triple bill with Dr. John and the Allman Brothers Memorial Auditorium, Dallas June 9, 1972

Netflix doesn't have shit.

Bird Feathers Bird Gets the Worm Ladybird Lazy Bird Free Bird Next Word: WHY

Wow. Sal playing behind Jimmy Rushing. Would have loved to have heard that.

Now if only someone can come up with video of Hank Mobley....

Brilliant! Thanks for the link.

The kind of beats - rock rhythm (for lack of a better term, what have you) that are the fundamental rhythmic core of many of these compositions, such as Condition Red, Remote Control, as well as Forbidden Plan-It! IMHO would sound absolutely ridiculous with acoustic piano and bass and no synths. However Mahogany Bird is acoustic, for the most part. Flagships would not have its film-score like grandeur without the sound palette used. So.... just suck it up and go with it. I will admit that the monster sounds on Remote Control are pretty cheesy. But Wayne digs his Sci-Fi so let the man have his fun.

Happy Birthday Guy!
