  1. Not a clue, but this sure brought back memories! I used to watch the show when I was a kid, and remember how awkward and out of touch the show seemed when they tried to come to terms with rock & roll a couple of years later!
  2. Burland was primarily known for his work in the field of jingles - also was half of the Nutty Squirrels with Don Elliott. http://www.answers.com/topic/sascha-burland
  3. I could answer that, but I won't because it might make me look "smarter" than I am. I opnly learned the answer recently, from a poster here. Stereojack, otoh, owns this one! Baja Marimba Band He was usually in the background, back to the camera. Whoops! Didn't see the last post!

  5. The Boris Rose LP and the Spotlite contain the same performances. Spotlite also includes a Hawkins interview.
  6. Another AMG screwup. Btw, The Spotlite LP gives slightly different info from that given in the Silver discography. Birdland, September 13, 1952 Roy Eldridge (tp), Coleman Hawkins (ts), Horace Silver (p), Curley Russell (b), Connie Kay (d) -Disorder at the Border -The Blue Room -Stuffy Birdland, September 6, 1952 - Howard McGhee (tp), Coleman Hawkins (ts), Horace Silver (p), Curley Russell (b), Art Blakey (d) -Rifftide -I Can't get Started -Disorder at the Border London, date unknown -The Hawk Talks (interview) Furthermore, Jepsen's "Jazz Records" shows Art Blakey for both dates!
  7. I believe you are correct that tracks 2, 3 & 7 are not from the claimed source. Track 7 is lifted from the Prestige LP "Coleman Hawkins Soul".
  8. Knowing the pace at which his "front burner" projects come to fruition, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for this one. It is a beautiful record.
  9. I only got one, although I have seen three of ther movies. I thought "The Absent Minded Professor" was "Suspicion".
  10. Monterose made two records for Uptown - the first was weak, but the second (which we are discussing) is great. Btw, the CD has extra tracks.
  11. Since Denny and Lucas are both dead, I assume the album was "finished" by the three surviving musicians? I look forward to this - am a fan of all things Fairport.
  12. Apologies are made in the notes about the sound quality, but it's really not bad. Perhaps not up to the standards of the super-audiophile types, but very listenable. I only recently discovered this side, after having heard vol. 1 years ago and not being overly impressed, and I don't find the sound to be any kind of problem.
  13. The double live album is great. Some of Freddie Hubbard's most fiery playing on record!
  14. I agree. Kind of a lightweight session, given the personnel. If you found an original for three bucks, you did well, but this is most likely the reissue.
  15. Thanks for posting this, Larry. Very enjoyable!
  16. Carl Fontana: http://www.dailymotion.com/trombone-usa/video/112390
  17. Gladys is great, but this isn't one of her more memorable tunes.
  18. I can hear the resemblance between Jambangle & the one line in Light My Fire, but I doubt that there are grounds for a lawsuit.
  19. My hearing must be going. At first I thought I heard "I pass the plate a lot", then "My pastor paid a lot".
  20. "Mellow Yellow" was issued on CD in Japan a few years ago - I've seen it. Don't know about any of the others.
  21. http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&a...10:fcfixqegldde Reissued in 2004, don't know if it's still available. Disagree with Yanow about the organ - Buckner was a powerhouse, and this band rocks!
  22. I was a young jazz enthusiast at the time, not yet 21, and I remember being totally blown away. The album, good as it is, is tame in comparison to my memory! New York to Boston is a 4 hour + drive - I expect they would have flown up. There were cheap shuttle flights between NY and Boston back then. Lennie's was north of Boston, about 15-20 miles from the airport. Jacquet was New York based, not sure where Buckner lived.
  23. Working my way through Sarah Vaughan & Jack Teagarden Capitol - both recently acquired.
  24. I saw them at Lennie's that early that week. I remember Lennie (the host) announcing that they would be recording the gig on the weekend. Of course, I bought the album when it came out later. $400 dollars was pretty good pay at that time, easily the equivalent of 3 or 4 times that now, although they played six nights and a Sunday matinee, which was typical in those days. The transportation costs probably include air fare. There was a motel up the street from the club, and usually the club took care of providing rides to and from the club, and it wouldn't surprise me if Lennie's also got them to and from the airport as well. Dawson was a local musician, and no doubt provided his own transportation.
