Carla Bley. Get with the program. Whoops! I thought it was Piper Laurie!

Yeah, me too. I must've been in a grouchy mood. Not to denigrate your efforts, Tom.

BFT #41, Disc 2 Track 1. Well, it’s a Monk tune, “Blues Five Spot”, I think. At first I found it amusing, and I’m sure the live audience had fun with it, but by the time the track was over I was tired of it, and didn’t have any interest in hearing it a second time. The vibist is indebted to Bags, but I don’t know who it is. Track 2. The synthesiser as a voice in the orchestra – why not? Really no clue who anybody is here, and frankly, at the risk of being called a moldy fig, I might’ve liked it better without the electronics. Track 3. This follows a similar path as the last one, the writing is a little more “out”. George Russell? Track 4. “My Melancholy Baby”. The block chords thing certainly recalls Red Garland, but this ain’t him, I’m pretty sure. George Mraz on bass? Track 5. Did we hear this flute player on the first disc? The tune is “Delilah”, can’t place anybody. Possibly Eddy Louiss on organ? I like the organist better than the flutist! Track 6. Nice tune, breathy “old school” tenor player, whose name I should know! Track 7. “In Your Own Sweet Way”. I found the laughter (presumably the pianist) really distracting. The tenor? Thanks, but no thanks! Track 8. “Darn That Dream”. This sounds a lot like the group on #6, breathy tenor and all. Track 9. Hated this! A scatting bass player! I guess you wanted to begin and end on a humorous note, but it didn’t tickle my funny bone.

There were a number of singles (78 & 45) issued in 1500-1600 series. Perhaps Blue Note found that this duplication between LP's and singles was causing confusion at the distribution level, and so they began the 4000 series.

I just came home from seeing the film and I'm gonna give it a very enthusiastic thumbs up! The 2 1/2 hours fly by, Damon & DiCaprio are outstanding, the plot is just convoluted enough to hold one's interest without confusion. Personally, I love Jack Nicholson's quirks, and he is wonderful as the crime boss. I admire Scorsese enough to check out each new film, and this is his best in at least a decade. And I won't even get started on the last 10 minutes!

Oh yes, an old favorite. The album actually enjoyed some crossover success back in the 60's.
