  10. 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.
  11. Saw MO in a triple bill with Dr. John and the Allman Brothers Memorial Auditorium, Dallas June 9, 1972

  14. Wow. Sal playing behind Jimmy Rushing. Would have loved to have heard that.
  15. Now if only someone can come up with video of Hank Mobley....
  16. Brilliant! Thanks for the link.
  17. 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.
  18. Happy Birthday Guy!

  21. In Dallas right? At a rock club? I was there for that. Olinga!
  22. This URL brings up 9 Birdland broadcasts: http://newstalgia.cr...x?keys=birdland This is an incredible find. I haven't seen the Kai Winding with KD/JMac mentioned anywhere else! Amazing.
  23. This wasn't recorded but I wish it was: I remember hearing Moody in Chicago around 1979. He gave Wilbur Campbell a solo on Body and Soul, which he played on mallets. At least a whole chorus.
  24. Saw a handbill last week in Point Arena, CA for your upcoming concert. Enjoy the drive up Hwy 1.
  25. Can you post a link to where you found this?
