    I don't believe I have ever heard her. What does she play / contribute? Cello, violin and (the main reason for my dislike of the CD) voice.
  2. Saw it too - on MSNBC and CNN. Another great artist gone.

    I think I'm going to sell my copy of Lacy's Clichés; I don't like Irène Aëbi's contributions.
  4. Hiroshi Tanno told me there's no mention of a remastering engineer on the obi or elsewhere on the outside of these (sealed) CDs.

  6. Published on the BBC website today: Bardot fined for 'race hate' book French film legend Brigitte Bardot has been fined 5,000 euros (£3,301) for inciting racial hatred in a book. The charges against Bardot, 69, related to her best-seller, A Cry In The Silence, in which she said she "opposed the Islamisation of France". Last month the former actress apologised in court, and said: "I never knowingly wanted to hurt anybody." In her book she wrote about issues such as racial mixing, immigration, the role of women in politics and Islam. The book also contained a section attacking what she called the mixing of genes and praised previous generations who, she said, had given their lives to push out invaders. Bardot's comments prompted anti-racism groups to launch legal proceedings against the actress, who now campaigns for animal rights. The court said: "Madame Bardot presents Muslims as barbaric and cruel invaders, responsible for terrorist acts and eager to dominate the French to the extent of wanting to exterminate them." It awarded a symbolic one euro in damages to France's anti-racism movement MRAP and to the League for Human Rights who brought the case to court. The court also ordered a 5,000 euro fine against the head of Bardot's publishing house, Le Rocher, and ordered both to pay for advertisements in two newspapers announcing their convictions. Bardot has previous convictions for inciting racial violence after criticising in print the Muslim practice of slaughtering sheep.

  7. Ditto the Carnegie Hall Concert? The Carnegie Hall concert was released separately, in a remastered 2CD-set in 1998.

    For those interested: Funny Rat auction - I'm not the seller.
  13. Depends on what kind of R&B you're talking about. The focus here is on "classic", pre-Motown R&B, 1940s-mid 1950s.
  14. Jeff, My friend John said it all. Good luck, and don't be a stranger!
  15. An excellent book on soul is Robert Pruter's Chicago Soul, covering the late 1950s through the late 1970s (published 1991). Recommended!
  16. Haven't heard it yet. It can be pre-ordered here.
  17. Charlie Gillett's excellent The Sound of the City (third edition, published 1996) not only deals with the rise of rock 'n' roll (1954-1961), but it also with rhythm & blues (1945-1956) and soul (1958-1971). Recommended! Other books of interest are: Charlie Gillett - Making Tracks: The Story of Atlantic Records (published 1974, 1988) John Broven - Walking to New Orleans: The Story of New Orleans Rhythm & Blues (published 1974) Jeff Hannusch - I Hear You Knockin': The Sound of New Orleans Rhythm & Blues (published 1985)

  19. That's not allowed under eBay rules. Anyway, Dutch postage rates are high enough already
  20. I got it from Hiroshi Tanno; apparently the embargo has been lifted.
  21. I don't, at least not in my eBay auctions, and it has cost me a lot...
  22. I understand Toshiba are only reissuing their 100 best-selling Blue Notes and that seems to exclude any Andrew Hill albums
  23. I've posted a complete list here.
