  1. White guys telling other white guys about (largely) black experience? Isn't that how much of history is written? And you're okay with that? Authentic voices tell a more truthful story. I'm not talking about the skin color of the author. I'm talking about writers who help me understand the cultural and historical value of the music I love. Of course, there are writers like the OP who do an excellent job. But the absence of black and other non-white voices is troubling and in need of change.

  8. Hey all, I saw this article about archive.org this morning and thought it might be of interest to others. Some members have mentioned using the site for music research, enjoyment, etc. I saw no evidence of similar challenges being made against musical content. Still .... Internet Archive's digital book lending violates copyrights, US judge rules
  9. Hell hath no fury like a Kevin scorned. I pity Tommy.
  10. So, Bill Evans' word isn't good enough?
  11. Oooh, Thundercat is performing! Can't wait to hear the awesome tune "Drink Dat": Can't open my eyes, girl 'Cause I'm just too wasted You're taking me higher Straight shots with no chaser I'm up past the clouds Can't come down, we're too faded Way out in the stars She said, "Come to outer space" Then she said, "Drink dat, drink dat Drink dat, drink dat" She told me, "Drink dat, drink dat Yeah, no.
  12. From Wiki: "Because he was very knowledgeable about the music business and copyright laws, Gaskill was able to use that to his advantage. He claimed composer credit on Christmas songs and nursery rhymes like, Jingle Bells, Adeste Fideles, The Farmer in the Dell, and Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star."

  20. I know there's been interest in Jay Migliori on the board. Rather than lament over an unobtainable Transition date, I'm enjoying "Equinox". It's a newly released recording from 1984 that features Jay on tenor, Conte Condoli on trumpet, Joe Lettieri on piano, Jim Crutcher on bass, and Chiz Harris on drums. Omnivore OV-513. Listen on Spotify.

    I have some doubts whether you'd really like this, Kev. It's fairly out there at times, and there's no horn. I suggest listening to it on Spotify a few times before you decide. Subtle on top, with lots of interesting things going on beneath the surface. 👍 I have a recording of a live solo concert at the New England Repertory Theater in 1979. Now that's subtle and sublime.
  22. Do you not understand the theme of this thread, or do you just not give a damn?
