I have one of those and second the recommendation!

Good suggestion, I think both Dorham and Sulieman seem plausible, but we'll probably never know. But he was still alive when the book was published - Gitler didn't want to harm his reputation.

Same here!

Is it the very idea of organ transplants you criticize, or something about the way it's done? It is the idea itself I criticize. I'd rather accept the failure of an organ and death as a consequence than ask for a part of another human being's body, no matter if he died of an accident or donated - I cannot separate an organ from the whole person, see them as inseparable. Illegal organ trade as a possible consequence of the possibility is another ting. Basically I think we need not do everything we can do, technically, medicinally, musically ....

Who's on that unissued Booker Ervin session???

The Steigs would rather make a Mosaic select. The Fats Sadi was a licensed Vogue session, so ask French BMG for it!

I have a damn hard time NOT to look at the answers thread!!! When will this dreaded fun disk arrive?!?!?! (Tom, not your fault, just my impatience )

I ordered the Gaslini from BT#1, still waiting for it to arrive. Will order the Abdullah Ibrahim/Dollar Brand on one of the next occasions.

Perhaps it's among these: ABDULLAH IBRAHIM WITH CARLOS WARD AND EKAYA

I'd say they're too obscure so they didn't know they existed - Bruyninckx doesn't have them either.

I thought there would be a number of Prestige dates, but it seems none of our so called vocal greats have recorded with organ?

Oh, I forgot: The Red Kelly/Jim Hall Trio on pacific jazz!!!

Jim Sangrey has it right: The CHICO HAMILTON TRIOS!!!!! (thanks for the cover!) Conns: The Johnny Rae United Artists with Herbie Mann, Philly Joe Jones et al The Urbie Green 10" The Tommy Flanagan Trio (United Artists?) released only on a Japanese Blue Note LP The McCoy Tyner Cosmos twofer tracks with trio and strings not on the Asante CD The Andrew Hill One For One sessions any other Andrew Hill not yet on domestic US CD The Tyrone Washington "trainwreck"session !!! The unreleased McCoy Tyner with Shorter and Vitous Jack Wilson with Roy Ayers on United Artists The Horace Silver and ... would rather make a nice Mosaic Select.

Now was that Monk or Keepnews? B)

I just read in Ira Gitler's "Jazz Masters of the 40's" that Tadd Dameron's "Mating Call" LP was originally supposed to be a quintet date. Now is there any knowledge about the missing horn? Kenny Dorham perhaps?

I don't get it that Universal didn't reissue some of this stuff on CD at the occasion of his 60'th birthday ....

My very critical views on organ transplants aside, I send him my best wishes for recovery. Any news about his state? A real rock giant, IMO, and much more important than most in the business, underrated for sure. Real rock power without gimmicks. Saw his birthday celebration concert on TV, this guy has class!

I knew these jokes were unavoidable ... but seriously, aren't there any more recordings of vocalists with a B-3 (I'd rather use another word )? I remembered Jimmy Smith's singles sessions with Babs Gonzales and Bill Henderson, but who else, please?

3 whites, 1 black - just like population properties. They had to chose but one out of four stamps, and Duke had his own stamp already? But seriously, this is subtle racism to me.

... to give him wider circulation?

IMHO Teo Macero developped into an arrogant producer who thought he was more important than the musicians he produced. But he didn't produce the music, just the albums ....

This has always been my favourite electric Miles. Gonna get me one immediately - which I didn't with the others - but this one ...

Disk washing .....

Any double-tongued implications aside --- after reading through some other thread here I scored a CD on ebay byIrene Reid: In the liner notes she is quoted as being an organ type of person. All of her recent Savant CDs have organ, and I began to wonder how many singers recorded with organ backing instead of piano. I have a Prestige/OJC by Etta Jones with Larry Young, but the organ is strictly in the background there. What other jazz vocal albums are there with organ?

The Duets are great!!! Have to check out the quartet - I am not up to date on this series, I reckon. Back in the vinyl days there were so many Rhoda Scott LPs available in Europe you didn't know where to start. I was not as much into organ then, so I passed her by ... I certainly regret it!
