  1. While looking for other stuff I stepped on the source for this track: https://www.discogs.com/Parco-Della-Musica-Jazz-Orchestra-Special-Guest-Irene-Grandi-Simona-Bencini-Jazzitaliano-Live-2007/release/3896607 An all-star Italian event that deserves some attention.
  2. JPC in Germany now has a release date of December 31, 2020!
  3. The Monk family probably is not the cause for the delay, as Monk jr. was full of praise for the find.
  4. BBC Documentary on Annie Ross by Gil Parry, linked by Marc Myers in the features linked above but deserving a more direct link. https://vimeo.com/317095376
  5. LP and CD issue. I wonder why this wasn't posted earlier.
  6. The percussionist is Manolo Badrena. Most of you will know him from his tenure with Weather Report.
  7. That's a really great cover photo - I regret I sold the LP after I bought the CD. It looks great in LP size. I always wondered who the model was.
  8. Thanks for the clarification (I should have asked back then, ca. ten years ago)! IIRC he even quotes "Summertime" at one point in one of the recordings.
  9. I always quarreled with my mates in one band if the changes to Wes Montgomery's "Four On Six" were identical to those of "Summertime".
  10. Somehow the mysterious person reminds me of Monk.
  11. I missed this one - will have to get me a copy!
  12. Camille Bertault posted a beautiful photo today on her facebook page: The torch is in good hands ....
  13. earlier today, in memoriam Annie Ross: She was so hip ....
  14. R.I.P. - one of my favourite singers ever. The grand lady of vocalese has joined the heavenly jazz choir. I once did "Twisted" with a local singer - just vocals and congas.
