Unless Resonance gives an unimpeachable explanation as to why it is Denis and not Huss despite the announcement, I will assume it is Huss.

Right, Denis was out there way before 1962. So the question is when did Frank/Huss start becoming active? A few weeks ago we were thinking late 60s, but now he goes back to 1962.

I see both Dennis (sic) Charles and Frank Charles playing percussion on a couple of 1962 RCA Sonny Rollins dates, the ones for the What's New record. Were the brothers on the scene that early?

Chewy pops up on Facebook once in a while.

Picked it up in Paris, it is great!

I guess we will find out on record store day. If Zev has an event at Joe's Record Paradise, I will try to go and ask what's up. Trumpeter Fabien Mary did a great tribute to KD tonight at Sunside in Paris.

Roberta and Steve were married for a while. Steve in his 80s but still active on the DC scene. I see him hanging out a lot.

Which tracks on sides 4, 5 and 6 does Tina Brooks play on??

Is the sampler streaming only?

So will there be any new tracks with Tina Brooks?

I found an album cover online for a Denis date that Huss is on. They are not pure lookalikes. I thought Huss was Larry Willis at first. Of course, this was way later than 1967.

Huss is actually named Frank.

Actually, he plays congas on the Ed Blackwell Strata-East record, January 1968. So he was on the scene around the Blue Morocco date.

I think I have the thing floating around and I think it does have fewer tracks. It is possible that the liner notes will explain how Denis Charles was identified. The answer could simply be that there are photos from the date. I am curious about the Fathead Newman date. It could have been a 2-CD set.

Interesting theory. The only person who would have known that is the guy who had the tape.

I meant to say 'paid', not made.

So the Denis Charles estate will be made instead of the Huss Charles estate. Bertrand.

Where did you get the Free sampler? I better grab one before they are out of stock.

Interesting. Who knows how they decided it was Denis. I hope they did not get it wrong.

Track listing says Bag's. Either Bags' or Bags's are acceptable.

So sorry to hear about Claude. I had lost touch over the years. Please don't tell me the song will be called Bag's Groove instead of Bags' Groove.

Finally!

I hope there are CDs. Reasons in Tonality is great!

That's kind of a snooty attitude on his part. I am not a musician and I love his music.

I don't understand his response.
