3 new Miles Davis live releases listed on CD Japan
bertrand replied to mjzee's topic in New Releases
Not inconsistent with 'Cocksucker Blues'. A shame Sony did not put out all the sessions with Sam Rivers as part of the bootleg series. -
Unissued Julius Watkins Mercury sessions.
-
Or Green Note records.

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"
bertrand replied to ghost of miles's topic in Jazz Radio & Podcasts
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?
