  2. If you are referring to the quartet sides recorded August 13/15, 1962, I only know of one - "Hawkins! Alive! At the Village Gate" (Verve 8509). All the Things You Are Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho Mack the Knife It's the Talk of the Town The CD reissue contains two more tracks: Bean and the Boys If I Had You "Hawkins! Eldridge! Hodges! Alive at the Village Gate" (Verve 8504) was recorded August 15, 1962: Satin Doll Perdido The Rabbit In Jazz The CD reissue contains four more tracks, Hawk & rhythm section only: Mack the Knife It's the Talk of the Town Bean and the Boys Caravan (these are different performances than the ones issued on the previous album)

  6. "Alive" was recorded the same week as the one with Hodges & Eldridge. It is one of my favorite Hawkins records, and was one of the first CD's I bought (to get the bonus tracks). There is a version of "Joshua Fit the Batlle of Jericho" that demonstrates just how timeless Hawk was. Unfortunately, I think it is now out of print. All of the Prestige albums are good. The weakest is probably "No Strings" on which they do the music from a Broadway show. The tunes, for the most part, are forgettable, although Hawk & company play well as always. I don't think "Good Old Broadway" and "Make Someone Happy" have been mentioned yet, and I seem to recall that they are available on a 2-on-1 CD. For those who like "At Ease" and "Hawk Relaxes", these are every bit as good.

  8. When the poll began in the late 50's it was primarily a jazz poll. By the late 60's, people like the Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, and others were regularly among the winners, which just pointed up how silly the poll had become. I recall one year that Peter, Paul & Mary were the top vocal group. Can't say that I remember for certain that Streisand ever won, but I was just making a humorous point anyway.

  11. Obviously he's pissed that you "won" (got your money back). Most honorable sellers would have just moved on.

  13. As an Ebay seller myself, I feel I must defend the majority of us who are honest and who respect the buyer. This asshole Cruisetunes has 11 negatives - I'm surprised that Ebay allows him to continue doing business, but I guess it's all about the volume of business he's done. I've only received one negative in the years I've been doing business, and it was from a jerk who didn't even give me the opportunity to make things right. I've never had to appeal a negative feedback, but a high volume seller I know told me that he did petition an unfair feedback to Ebay and they did rescind it, even though it took a few months. Maybe they've changed their policy, I don't know. Others have told me that Ebay usually sides with the seller in a dispute - which certainly sucks for the buyer who's been cheated. Maybe it's not worth the trouble, Kevin, but this asshole has accused you of theft, and perhaps you should file a complaint with the police if that's your only option.

  17. No - Warne was born October 26, 1927. His father was the cinematographer Olver T. Marsh (1892-1941), and his mother Elizabeth was a violinist. Mae Marsh, the actress, was his aunt.

  19. Kevin, it's probably an uphill battle, but I believe you can appeal the negative with Ebay, and if they side with you they may remove the negative. You can also respond to his negative, calling him out for the deceipt in the transaction. And, you can leave him "revenge" feedback.
  20. The biggest laugh was when thy would announce the winners, and would have one of their artists do a two page spread of the Playboy All Star Band. Typically, it would go something like this: Trumpets - Miles Davis, Al Hirt, Dizzy Gillespie, Herb Alpert Trombones - J. J. Johnson, Kai Winding, Bob Brookmeyer Saxes - Cannonball Adderley, Paul Desmond (alto), John Coltrane, Stan Getz (tenor, Gerry Mulligan (bari) Rhythm Section - Dave Brubeck (piano), Charlie Byrd (guitar), Charles Mingus (bass), Buddy Rich (drums), Lionel Hampton (vibes) Vocalists - Frank Sinatra (male), Barbra Streisand (female), Beatles (group)

  22. Gene Allen already there, Jack, but Jack Washington is a new name to me. Must look him up. One of the earliest? He was with Basie 1936-43 and rarely had an opportunity to solo, with Pres and Hershel in the band ..... I added Gene Allen because you didn't have a year of birth for him. Jack Washington rejoined Basie after the war, 1946-49. Has a nice feature piece "Lopin'" rec. 5/21/47 for RCA Victor.
