his local watering hole has ordered a case of brother theolonius abbey ale for the aloccer, to be drunk only while listening to monk. tributes and compositions played by other artists, other than bud powell, are offlimits. -

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-----and for me, , especially the exquisite brooklyn chocolate, further sweetened with generous portions of fran warren and jeri southern ballads. -
yuk. thanks. my guess would have been a low failure rate. new technologies and atrophy over time are worries, as well. could lighting strikes/power spikes wreak havoc with a plugged in drive?

on a recent bitterly cold starlight january night, while the rest of mansfield slept, a small, dedicated group of mansfield's highest ranking male citizens and those who had left their ranks, gathered at a small elongated now vacant building on north diamond street just north of east 4th street to celebrate the festive times enjoyed there for years. one frequent customer mentioned leaving an empty pizza box bouquet monthly, for the ladies who sometimes provided the only joy in their loveless lives. 'safety was important to us. we never knew when our secretaries and coworkers would turn on us, spilling our eccentricities and telling the whole town, costing our cushy jobs. after a few years, the secretaries had become mechanical and boring. their triests had just become impersonal duties of their jobs, but these ladies were different.' heads were bowed, flasks were capped and a retired local minister who had been a regular, prayed for the many ladies who had been their gracious hosts, and for their souls, giving thanks for them, and wishing each, as many called out their names, many safe and healthy tricks. some of the guys recalled their favorite ladies, and many a tear was shed. then each gentleman kissed the painfully cold metal, some with their tongues, raising their right hand to touch the sign in their one time humble palace of downtown pleasure, fired up remote starters, jangled keys, driving sad and alone into the frigid pure clean air of a stunningly beautiful starlit moonless night. -

Are you talking about this one; or this one? I only have the former, live in the mid 70's and it's very good. This one seems to be fairly new and possibly not out on cd before, anyone know anything about it? Here's the blurb from Amazon; Product Description During the first half of 1978, Stan Getz toured Europe with a sextet he co-led with trombonist Bob Brookmeyer. The other band members consisted of Andy Laverne on piano, Mike Richmond on bass, Jeff Brillingen on drums, and Efrain Toro on percussion. Afterwards, Getz would continue playing in Europe with different formations that sometimes featured a similar rhythm section to the one employed with Brookmeyer plus other guest musicians. This show features seven tracks including 'They Can't Take That Away From Me', 'Billie's Bounce' and 'I'll Remember April'. Gambit. 2009. shortly after that stan got a new recording deal with columbia and issued a 2fer recording with laverne and richman called 'another world'. on that recording he did at least one extended number with the echoplex, which i really loved, and which showed a promise of things to come, but they never came. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- not to be forgotten is the 60's string recording (russ garcia) of lovely lovely readings of ballads, 'cool velvet.' it is still a special favorite with me.

npr did a series of recorded live sets, JAZZ ALIVE, with some great jazz musicians in the early 80s. one of the most memorable was a long duo set, or maybe two, with stan and elvin, which was recorded on the french riviera. (..........if i could just find thosecassette tapes. mosaic could do a fab box set with those few years of jazz alive tapes.) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ not to be overlooked is the little known mickey one soundtrack, arranged by eddie sauter, which was recorded very shortly after stan's fathers death. mixed in the wondrous kaleidescope of sounds, polka included, are moments of the most eloquent descriptions of despair and desolation that i have ever heard. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

'This is my backyard at high summer:' do nurture your lovely lovely yard often with some delius and mozart, and maybe some feldman(victor and mort), too. -

Butch Waller is the leader of "High Country": http://highcountrybluegrass.com/ So, "High Country" still survives after all these years.

a friend writes: "I'm actually familiar with Vaerse's work. He was a forerunner of Stockhausen and many of the 20th century composers who experimented with electronic music. When I was much younger I followed the development of electronic music until Christof Penderecki (sp?) came along with his orchestrations that made synthesizers moot. I knew Frank Zappa from a composers seminar he gave at OSU in the 80's. I was working in the Secretary of States office and Zappa came to the office to pick up some voter registrationm forms. Back then he was requiring everyone who attended his concerts to register to vote. He walked by the department where I was working and came in to say hello. You should have seen the looks on my co workers faces!"
