True... I just saw Baby Dodds solo drums and got excited.

This is it, right here: The Atavistic track listing is different, but the idea is the same. Excellent, excellent, excellent.

One of the first "jazz" CDs I ever owned. I lent it out three or four years ago and haven't heard it since. This just reminds me how much I miss it. I'll have to make an order soon!

Bill Evans Trio Sunday at the Village Vanguard
.:.impossible replied to .:.impossible's topic in Audio Talk
OK, so it is possible that Bill Evans set up on the right. Anyone else seen a piano trio at the VV? Thanks kh. -
Should I have beef or chicken for dinner?
.:.impossible replied to Jazzmoose's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
I was just reminded of THE FRESHMAN, starring Matthew Broderick and Brando. What was the name of the "practically extinct" meat eating dining club? -
I'm not sure if I have my terminology correct. I will try to explain though. I am listening to the K2 remaster. It sounds beautiful. The piano is in the right channel, bass in front of the left channel, and kit in the back of the left channel, as I hear it. It dawned on me that when I was there last December, the Geri Allen trio set up exactly opposite. Geri was to the left, Billy Hart to the right, and Buster Williams right of center. I am wondering if piano trios generally set up one way or the other at the Vanguard? Or is the Bill Evans recording inaccurate in this respect? Thanks.

Songs that demand to be played loud
.:.impossible replied to kulu se mama's topic in Miscellaneous Music
Larry Young .:. Unity A group this powerful deserves the most realistic volume your stereo can achieve. Larry Young .:. Mothership I am loving this disc. Open it up! Miles Davis .:. Bitches Brew Full effect. John Coltrane .:. Ascension Whoa. Dead Meadow .:. Shivering King and Others It is just so hard to believe how great the guitars sound. The louder, the better. ROCK THE F OUT. Stereolab .:. Dots and Loops Like aloe vera for the ears. Please, do turn this up. Thank you. -
That is a good disc, Blues... unfortunately, every disc after this that I have heard from Kenny Garrett has been a little soft. Some decent tracks on Pursuance, but I think I owe that to Metheny's guitar tones!

I just ordered IN OUR TIMES from Chuck! I was unaware of this album. Thanks for the heads up!

Those Spaceways Inc. albums didn't stick with me for some reason. I can't remember why. I kind of wish I had them so I could go back and listen again. I'll recommend another V5 recording, ACOUSTIC MACHINE. Recorded in 2001, 2+ years after Simpatico, ACOUSTIC MACHINE is a another series of dedications to musicians (Shepp, Getz, Prez, Hemphill, Elvin Jones, and others), with short compositions dedicated to Morton Feldman interspersed.

That was my next recommendation! I was waiting for Al Jones to drop in with this one. Here's another one I think he'd recommend! Brötzmann (reeds), Kessler (bass), Drake (drums)

We were blasting "Yes" in the car on Saturday night. Excellent recommendation!

Should I have beef or chicken for dinner?
.:.impossible replied to Jazzmoose's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
By the way, my initial thought WHICH I WOULD NEVER POST TO ANYONE EXCEPT IN JEST* was "Why doncha ask yo momma? " *This is a GENUINE DISCLAIMER, which protects the poster from any and all hurt feelings, insulted fellow posters, etc. etc. The "Should Jazzmoose be banned thread" will begin approximately thirty seconds after Impossible reads this post. Be there. OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH SNAP! If it weren't for that disclaimer and the smilies, you'd have found yourself in the gauntlet. You moose are all alike. -

Just so you know, I am on beef's side, but I think you should have both. Hey, I wonder what moose meat tastes like? -
Should Underground stay?

Most bizzare band names of all time.
.:.impossible replied to Brandon Burke's topic in Miscellaneous Music
Almost a household name at this point, but I always thought "The Flaming Lips" was an interesting band name. Pretty Girls Make Graves is an awesome name. Yes, named after The Smiths' song. They rock. Neutral Milk Hotel is also a good one. -
tonym reminds me of another that I remember liking very much. I am going to pull it out this evening. MARTY EHRLICH, PETER ERSKINE, MICHAEL FORMANEK | Enja | November 1999

This is one of my favorite combinations as well. Knowing your taste, and having a sense of what you already own, one of my favorites that most people don't seem to have in their collection is THE FRINGE .:. Its Time for the Fringe | Soul Note | April 1992 George Garzone (reeds), John Lockwood (bass), Bob Gullotti (drums). This was recorded live during the Rodney King riots. All three of these musicians have a great command over their instruments and play extremely well together. I have the good fortune of being able to go watch Gullotti work the drum kit every Tuesday night here in Providence, RI. I don't see his name too often, but he's the most impressive drummer I have seen in person yet. All Music lists this as "fusion." I have no idea where they came up with that label, so don't let it fool you. This is NOT "fusion." Another of my favorites that can stand to be recommended one more time is WILLIAM PARKER TRIO .:. Painter's Spring | Thirsty Ear | June 2000 Daniel Carter (reeds), William Parker (bass), Hamid Drake (drums).

Very cool. Thanks again Chuck. I'm sure there are some wonderful moments in the outtakes. Thanks for everyone's comments on this session.

Shawn! You've landed! You aren't too far from Snowshoe or Canaan, are you? Do you ski? Good to see your name again.

The Organissimo tribute CD
.:.impossible replied to Jim Alfredson's topic in organissimo - The Band Discussion
Was that you that voted against, Big Al?! I wasn't paying attention to who posted what. I'm just glad I wasn't the guy who proposed "Laura!" -
No. Its not rare at all. I'm sure its the same in the UK. It is rare for someone to have the initiative to have their very own unique t-shirt printed. That's all. It isn't difficult to find a screen print shop. This is probably a USA phenomenon. A store called Urban Outfitters. They basically reprint t-shirts that read "Don't Mess With Texas" or "Jesus Yellow on green with an outline of the state boundary. T-shirt sells for just under $20. You can buy an authentic CBGB t-shirt for the same price, plus it is already worn in! If you are interested in iron-ons, you are going to have to find an underground source, or you can buy a kit to print out on your desktop HP printer. Here's a great Urban Outfitters t. As seen on Sabado Night Live worn by Justin Timberlake. Also seen on Punk'd worn by, yes, I believe so, Brittany Spears. $20? Sorry. My price is $28. This ain't ebay, sucka. Oh, by the way... Jesus is my homeboy.
