From the Bob Newhart show. He's married to Suzanne Pleshette. He was on the Steve Allen show in the 1950s, and was funny as hell there. Him & Don Knotts both played characters there that were outside the mold of what they later became typecast as. Ah, Kitty Carlise. My buddies & I were big To Tell The Truth (Bud Collier) buffs back in the late 60s, when it was on every afternoon on CBS (and into the early 70s (Gary Moore and waaaaay psychedelic sets) in syndication), and we wondered who the hell was this old broad with the goofy hair and even goofier voice. We had had an English teacher or two along the way who acted like that, but they were weird (but, in retrospect, not any weirder than grade-school kids who watched TTTT every day...), and this chick seemed perfectly normal being like this. Kids in the Piney Woods conldn't figure that shit out. Time passed, and I got out of the Piney Woods, and I came to recognize just what and who she very was. I came to appreciate her. When TTTT had a brief daytime "comeback" (Lynn Swann), there she was, only this time she was REALLY old. Otherwise, same ol' Kitty, & it was charming. Then when GSN started running old TTTTs in early afternoon (Gary Moore again), it was a thoroughly flashbacky feelgood treat. Between Orson, Poston, Peggy Cass (another one fer ya') & KC, hey, TV can be good, if totally strange in a thereisnolifeoutsideofaverysmallpartofManhattan kind of way. R.I.P., and now, I understand. At least as much as anybody who wouldn't last more than a millisecond in her world (and her in mine) can. very beautiful thoughts. thanks.

thanks for the heads up. there was a beautiful forward looking album in the early 80's. wish i knew the name of it. not a great fan of most of the marsalis recordings, but this might well be an exception.

South African jazz enthusiasts might be interested in the article below. I wil be going "home" to Cape Town this coming December for the first time since 1990. I have no doubt that I will witness an enormous change in the "Rainbow Nation" this time. http://travel.nytimes.com/2006/07/02/travel/02surfacing.html exciting. maybe south african jazz listening junkets on the horizon?

the creativity of people at this level(i figure there are several dozen on the planet) defies all understanding and knows only the limits they impose on themselves. give people like this a rubber band, an old pair of slippers, and a bar of soap and they could probably make beautiful music with them.

this is a very apt review:(except i enjoyed it much more than not two, not one. Dan Warburton, www.paristransatlantic.com, february 2007 Think Agustí Fernandez meets Barry Guy and you're probably thinking of the kind of deluge of molten lava that characterised the Spanish pianist's volcanic contribution to Guy's Oort-Entropy back in 2005, or his spectacular scrap with Mats Gustafsson on Critical Mass. Add wildcard dynamo percussionist Ramón López to the mix and you've got all the makings of a Fire Music trio of epic proportions, right? Yes, well, right, but if you won't get any of that here. In fact, if this had been recorded by Jan Erik Kongshaug up in Rainbow Studios in Oslo or by Martin Wieland in Tonstudio Bauer in Ludwigsburg, it'd be perfectly at home in the ECM catalogue. Indeed, it makes for an interesting comparison with the 1998 Paul Bley / Gary Peacock / Paul Motian reunion outing on ECM, Not Two, Not One (though López's flick / splatter percussion probably has more in common with the work of Tony Oxley, so perhaps In The Evenings Out There would be a more sensible choice, even if that was recorded seven years earlier). Fernandez has penned all the tunes on offer, with the exception of Guy's "Odyssey" (previously recorded on the Barry Guy New Orchestra Inscape-Tableaux album), and they're unashamedly tonal throughout, revealing a side to the pianist's playing that aficionados of Fire Music are probably unfamiliar with (though closer listening to the Fernandez discography reveals a strong current of lyricism, even romanticism – check out Dark night, and luminous with Marilyn Crispell). And Guy, whose spiky virtuosity has been a cornerstone of aggressive modernism in both free and contemporary classical music for nearly 40 years, proves he's just as good at running up and down the standard scales as Eddie Gomez or Dave Holland. López's flecks of tabla, brushes and rattles are a good foil to it all: though he can, when he wants to, ride that cymbal as well as Jon Christensen (on "Rosalia"), he's really in his element sprinkling tiny showers of colour and light over the canvas. With a more conventional drummer like Motian behind the kit it could all too easily sound sentimental, even maudlin. As it is, it might be a little too pretty for hardcore free jazzers, but if you're prepared for once to accept that there's more to life than blowing the other guy (no puns intended) into the Oort cloud, this is a welcome reminder that music can also be tender, subtle and unashamedly beautiful.

this music is much more subtle and the instruments play conventionally. i have listened to most of it and dont recall any electronics. the magic here is the subtlty of the playing. rarely, if ever, have i heard such a level of improvised music be so delicate and yet so strong.

this note about the music might interest someone who loves absurdly beautiful piano trios. http://www.allaboutjazz.com/php/review_print.php?id=24885

how can this stuff continue to be sold?

i'm a straight shot drinker from way back. a double 151 is celebrated on rare occasion, but i could never swallow a spoonful of thunderbird.

that was indeed a cheap shot. it has been deleted. thanks.

oh wow! thanks!

my feast of the evening is the iai duos with brother holland

wkcr is going to do a full week of sam in a week or so, and i'm not sure that will be enough. (that is 6.75 days of phil schaap talking and a couple hours of rivbea played twice.)

a generous helping of sam rivers(any flavor) is unbelievably beautiful
