2022 NEA Jazz Masters; Clarke, Harrison, Hart, Wilson
bertrand replied to Mark Stryker's topic in Artists
Do not try to apply logic in that parallel world. Thank you for further confirming that Iverson is a dick. No wait, it actually makes sense. The process works as follows: 1. Take $25K from the NEA. 2. Shut down the NEA. In that order, not the reverse! -

I am pretty sure there is a full listing on their website. -
2022 NEA Jazz Masters; Clarke, Harrison, Hart, Wilson
bertrand replied to Mark Stryker's topic in Artists
She has other reasons to disqualified. It is an award for accomplishments in the field of jazz. As such, she is not deserving as she has aligned herself with individual(s) who have demonstrated hatred or contempt for multiple groups well represented in the Jazz community: African-Americans, Women, Transgenders, Disabled people, the Military and others I am sure. Being a 'jazz master' implicitly suggests you respect all members of these groups and distance yourself from those who don't. All the more baffling as she is a member of two of these groups. It is an award, not a job. Your personal views can disqualify you. My two cents. -
"Mary Osborne: Queen of the Jazz Guitar"

Do you still have this? -
And now they are owned by Concord so they should see the light of day any minute now...

'Minor March' is not the same song as 'Little Melonae'. 'Minor March' was retitled 'Minor Apprehension' on the New Soil record. Maybe that is what you were thinking of?

1) I do not think she gets lyric credit, I can check again. 2) No recording of the song before 1973, but she may have been playing it live for a while. 3) In terms of blacklisting, this is the timeline on her recordings between 60 and 73: - A few Candid dates 1960-1961 - Percussion Bitter Sweet and It's Time1962 - Japanese film soundtrack with Max 1963 - A few live bootlegs 1964 - One Italian live bootleg 1968 - Elektra Japan date c. 1973 - People In Me 1973 - Painted Lady Marge 1980 So yes, the majors were not recording her so she had time to work out some arrangements that she was woodshedding live before she got that 1973 record date. But she may have also chosen to focus more on acting during this period, possibly?

Great documentary but yes, I want to see complete sets. Also, Wikipedia claims some of this WAS broadcast at the time. So some of it WAS seen before. Is Wikipedia wrong? I asked this in the other thread but worth repeating here: The piece Abbey sings is captioned as 'Africa'. It is not 'All Africa' from We Insist. The credits at the end claim it is the Coltrane composition but I think I would have recognized it. I will check it again later. Not just an academic exercise, there is serious $$$ involved and the correct composer needs to be identified. Bertrand.

So Max is with a larger ensemble. Not sure if it is a house band, but we didn't see enough for me to recognize anyone. Looks like the guitar player is sitting on the floor. Another question arises: The piece Abbey sings is captioned as 'Africa'. It is not 'All Africa' from We Insist. The credits at the end claim it is the Coltrane composition but I think I would have recognized it. I will check it again later. Not just an academic exercise, there is serious $$$ involved and the correct composer needs to be identified. Bertrand.

Oops, I misread. If it is going online, they can post one at a time, as they obtain clearances on a flow basis. Some estates will be easy going, some will be reasonable, some will be difficult and some will be impossible to deal with. But at least there is no Max Roach material. Bertrand.

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.sevendaysvt.com/LiveCulture/archives/2020/05/22/vermont-jazz-center-awarded-clir-grant-to-preserve-attila-zoller-archives%3fmedia=AMP%2bHTML I was just made aware of this. I am very interested in these types of archives, which seem to be appearing more and more (Worcester Polytechnic, Philadelphia etc.). This is the antidote to those people who have stashes of tapes decaying in their basements (Left Bank Jazz Society). If I understand correctly, the plan is to digitize and provide onsite listening for research purposes. I think it is great that they intend to be cautious, but I am trying to understand exactly what the copyright hurdles are if they are not planning to commercialize or otherwise distribute the material? If they were to place it online for remote listening, then it would be a form of non-commercial distribution, and I can see what the issues could be. Bertrand.

The three Land originals are apparently not recorded elsewhere. Cory Weeds did a livestream where he performed them. In at least one case, the title was chosen by the son.

How much is shipping if I just get that?
-
We have Hulu but there are always password dramas.
-
How much is it selling for? Out of stock so no price listed...
-
Sounds like a great film. Too bad I am not ready to go out yet.
-
Smoke made a smart decision. Any club that chooses to discontinue the livestreams after reopening is shooting itself in the foot. Smoke's streams are high quality.
-
Am I understanding correctly that Max Roach and Abbey Lincoln are in the film? Who is playing with them?
-
Has anyone heard these yet? This is not good to hear. Oh, is that where it belongs?
-
The Hubbard does not seem to have the bonus track, which is apparently the same 'Muses' composition that appeared in the Dolphy Resonance set. That is annoying.

Worcester Hot Club listening sessions
bertrand replied to bertrand's topic in Live Shows & Festivals
WPI’s Jazz History Database presents a hot listening session On Zoom Thursday, July 1 3:00 to 5:30pm (JHDB From the Lab) Louis Armstrong in 1958 5:30 to 6:30pm Louis Armstrong on OKeh 78s (Charles Iselin hosts) 6:30 to 8:00pm Louis Armstrong on 78s (Gian Carlo Cervone hosts) 8:00 to 9:00pm Rashied Ali quartet rarity (Crossing Tones Power Hour) https://wpi.zoom.us/j/97495476280 [more options below] All are welcome to join any time. * Louis Armstrong through his whole life represented that he was born on July 4, 1900—which has led to an ongoing equation of his birthday with the Independence Day holiday. We’ll get started on the weekend a little early. In the Armstrong music for today’s Lab session, he sings a little, plays a lot (of course) and even does an early version of what some have seen as rapping. Collaterally, we’ll spend some time with a couple of ongoing concepts in Armstrong’s world: Alternative versions of improvisations and Louis’s role in that process; and the issue of the repertoire of his working band versus repertoire in unique projects. The evening sessions are all about Louis Armstrong 78rpm records—his earliest format—and represent most of the early chapters of Armstrong as a sideman with King Oliver and others, and an OKeh recording artist starting in the Twenties. Charles Iselin spins a set at 5:30, and Gian Carlo Cervone will host from 6:30 until 8. And then for something substantially different: For the Crossing Tones Power Hour Parker Fishel honors the birthday anniversary of drummer Rashied Ali with an exclusive and surprising set of music that celebrates the quite differing energies of violinist Takehisa Kosugi, saxophonist Mabo Suzuki and bassist William Parker. Only once, only then: 8 to 9. Tell a friend, bring a friend, and chime in any time. * More Zoom connections: Ben Young is inviting you to a scheduled Zoom meeting.
