  1. Hmmm...which to choose.... A heroin-soaked irritant or a Tom Rapp-like lisp?
  2. Hey! It’s the Barber of Nashville!
  3. That's a bit complex for me considering we don't know each other's taste, etc ... BUT! I was going to upload them to YouTube when I noticed that someone else already had uploaded all 4 of them. Here are the first two:
  4. Anthony Payne (1936 - 2021)
  5. I have all 4 of his symphonies, but like usual with physical product, it's packed away in one of numerous boxes, but I do have them on my hard drive.
  6. Debu Chaudhuri passed away today (COVID-19), so I'm listening to these for a start...
  7. Well, off the top of my head, I'd say that this wasn't only a shave and a haircut, but two bits as well!
  8. Yeah, I don't see it anywhere online on CD. Too bad it isn't the music that's important in this case.
  9. Well, I wasn't expecting it to exactly reference the differences, but just a cursory glance at the info provided, it appears that maybe it could be a combination of negotiating the 6/4 / 4/4 signatures that begins the work with orchestral balance. ...or maybe not... BTW: there's a specific mention of the Hanson version and a graphic of the temporal length of each section on pages 18 and 19. Anyway, it could be like any other poor performance: attention to details or misinterpretations.
  10. Yes, I can hear the difference - clarity versus mud. Here’s an analysis of the work if that helps: https://ttu-ir.tdl.org/bitstream/handle/2346/18536/31295001126993.pdf;sequence=1
  11. Yes, that’s why I said that he “bought and added Trend recordings in the early 80s.” Same album, different cover. Four copies on CD available: https://www.discogs.com/Shorty-Rogers-And-His-Giants-Bossa-Nova-/release/9518730
  12. I worked for a distributor in the 80s where I had to sell Discovery and Trend albums. What I remember about those titles is that Discovery was started sometime in the late 40s and Marx bought and added Trend recordings in the early 80s. I remember there was some “excitement” (if you want to call it that) about acquiring Trend recordings at that time. I mostly enjoyed the albums that went outside jazz into other culture’s musics. I think there was an L. Subramaniam LP and a fellow who played oud, and so on. I think all of that was eventually acquired by Warners.
  13. w/Kenny Barron, Ben Brown, Al Foster, and Azzedin Weston
  14. OK, so I guess not.
  15. ^^^ ^^^ Very true. ...and it was that tune that McGhee would play a lot that got me out there to the record store to pick it up. n.p.:
