  1. Neat! We've been in the aera about a year and a half from Iowa City. Some adjusting to do, but it's a neat place. Since we moved it's been new job-pregnancy-hospitalization-new baby so we haven't done or seen much, but we've got years on our hands now so I'm looking forward to it.
  2. Randol's on Kaliste Saloom. You may know it, been there 40 years. Kind of a tourist joint, but that's ok.
  3. Boy, I'd like to know the release date for that one. There's only five weeks left to this quarter. Quarter in Hat's schedule that is. These are their releases through April, then they'll put out a new batch May-July, August-Oct, Nov-Jan, etc.
  4. Mr. Horowitch had said he was definitely going to do Jeremy Steig's Flute Fever with Denny Zeitlin. Hopefully this is still the case.
  5. Here in South Louisiana, I'm thankful! I'm the executive chef at a Cajun restaurant and the weekend was pure hell.
  6. I should note that the Farlow is the Universal edition which says Tal Farlow Concert Band on the outer box spine.
  7. All prices include shipping in US. Paypal only. PM about international. Tal Farlow $80 Hank Mobley $75 Randy Weston Select $30 Andrew Hill Select 16 $35 Nat King Cole Hip-O Select $30
  8. If it takes me 30 years and I have to sell off a chunk of my collection to afford it, I will have that one day.
  9. http://www.avclub.com/articles/denzel-washington-may-take-a-break-from-being-an-a,69270/ Personally I like Wendell Pierce for this part, but whatever. I'd say there's about a 500 to 1 chance this movie gets made anyways and I'm sure we'll be all the better for it.
  10. As far as your question about price, for some reason or another this, along with the Maynard Ferguson, is one of the most competitive Mosaics on Ebay. For a CD version you're looking at $175-250 easy, between $200-300+ for the LP.
  11. My understanding with School Days is that Hat acquired the rights and put out their editions in 1992 and 2003. Nearly a decade passed and Davidson came under the impression that the rights were up for grabs again, so he pressed his edition on CD last year. He quickly learned that Hat still held the rights and was planning to repress it again and so withdrew the disc. But I do think it was pressed-- anybody have one?
  12. Hm, only 3 new titles announced this quarter: Jimmy Lyons/Sunny Murray Trio JUMP UP Marco Von Orrelli 6 CLOSE TIES ON HIDDEN LANES Eskelin/LiebmanMarino/Black NON SEQUITORS Nice to see the Lyons but still still still waiting on a few that have been dangled before us for years.
  13. Great, but I like Filles even more.
  14. I was wondering if there were any other jazz releases from the late 80s A&M series that included the Roach/Gillespie - Paris 1989, Cecil Taylor - In Florescence and Don Cherry - Art Deco albums? All three are fantastic so I'm hoping there's more.
  15. George Shearing - The Shearing Piano (Capitol) Sounded nice enough at 5:30am.
  16. I'll take October.
  17. You can buy the majority of her material in 3 or 4 sets: The Complete Columbia: http://www.amazon.com/Lady-Day-Complete-Columbia-Golden/dp/B0029XIWCY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328713477&sr=8-1 The Complete Decca: http://www.amazon.com/Billie-Holiday-Complete-Decca-Recordings/dp/B000003N36/ref=pd_sim_m_2 The Complete Commodore: http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Commodore-Recordings-Billie-Holiday/dp/B0000001NM/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328713665&sr=8-1 The Complete Verve: http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Billie-Holiday-Verve-1945-1959/dp/B0000046P3/ref=sr_1_7?ie=UTF8&qid=1328713604&sr=8-7 While the Columbia set does run 10 discs, it is among the greatest of all jazz box sets and for $25 it's a no-brainer. Master Take editions are available for all but the Decca. There's also this monster which pulls most of this together in master takes: http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Masters-1933-Billie-Holiday/dp/B005NNJK0K/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1328713714&sr=8-5 Start with the Columbia, but get them all!
  18. Bud Shank & Bob Cooper - Blowin' Country (World Pacific)
  19. The acts were The Remains, Heeb, Cyrkle, and the Ronettes. Pretty solid bill!
  20. Don Pullen-George Adams Quartet - Song Everlasting (Blue Note)
  21. Amazon has all of them in the 25-35$ range.
  22. Saw/heard Doug and Duke in Copenhagen in 1980. Must be a good memory. Listening to his first recording, he played very well at 21 years of age. I haven't kept up with his recent playing. Perhaps I should do so. Spitting image of his dad.
  23. Jimmy Lyons & Andrew Cyrille - "Take The A Train" Just wonderful.
  24. I agree, these are very underrated
