THE CROWD AT THE END OF YESTERDAY'S WAS ABOUT 25 PEOPLE. ....COULDN'T BEEN 4,000 THERE AT THE START. MUCH LIKE THE VAUNTED INDIANS....

THERE WAS 1 RELEASED ON SOLID STATE VINYL--WAS THAT CALLED COLTRANE TIME OR COLTRANE OLE????

I DON'T BELIEVE IN LABELLING PEOPLE.

chuck need not apologize for his aviator--- i wished i owned that gem. ...have an mp3 of it somewhere, which i will certainly NEVER find.

THE COLLECTION OF CHICAGO DRUMMER CLAY GROSSMAN. MINE MAY BE ONLY HALF THAT SIZE.

San Francisco 49ers cornerback Tarell Brown posted a letter he received from the NFL explaining why he was fined $5,250 for wearing red sleeves during Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions. The letter also reveals login info for the NFL's secure website for appeals. :shrug[1]: :shrug[1]: http://instagram.com/p/Pu_C6HvtOz/

thanks--i wasn't aware of the awesome $5/month computer only option. that's a deal.

WILL DO---

THE RESULT FOR ME IS AN ENDLESS ARRAY OF MP3 FILES COSTING NOTHING, WITH AN OCCASIONAL UNOBTRUSIVE RADIO COMMERCIAL SQUEEZED IN. FOR MY PURPOSES, COMPARISONS TO NAPSTER ARE VALID.

at his weekly solo gig a few moments ago, spike apologized profusely for 'the facebook' mess, saying that sometimes his fingers 'often type too quickly' and said that he meant no one 'any ill will.' his FB remarks elicited more than 150 responses, including some from the would be performer.

Michael Pedicin(once in dave brubeck's group)

is koester still around????

i'm thinking that the 'agent' might be the would be performer.

(it seems that this artist may have the wrong agent) Spike Wilner If you are ever thinking about opening a jazz club - take a deep breath and really consider it. This is an excerpt from an email I received today from an artists "manager" - I'm not naming names but just wanted folks to see what I deal with... "Spike: I think, at the end of the day, I'm not interested in gate keepers, only in making clubs $$ money. I'm bringing a $ credit worthy cash product. You can pass that up, but on what grounds ? You are too hip for that? Do you feel your actually building and contributing to the career's of Jazz musicians in America ? The way I see it, is your not - your simply working on a niche group of folks like Ari- Hoenig, and you'll give jonathan kreisberg a set. It's like, I don't get it ? You want to keep it in your family, but then you want to make money $$... if you want to make $$, how about putting quality fresh artists in there? Your blowing an artist, that has multiple awards, toured the world already, has built a fan base, is endorsed by many institutions, and top artists in the business. and for what reason? on what grounds ? * I'll have XXXX drop by, and you can meet him. If you really don't like his playing, than by all means, but you'd be in the minority. Good luck to your future, My generations is about rebuilding, embracing change, and making a difference. * If you ever want to sell your club, - give me a call, if I ever had the money - one day maybe I'd take it over and do something different.

link "Freddie Hubbard, a legendary trumpeter and 2006 NEA Jazz Master came to us for help in 2002. Frederick Dwayne Hubbard, born April 7th, 1938, in Indianapolis, Indiana, was widely regarded as the most gifted jazz trumpeter of the post-bebop '60s and '70s. An exceptionally talented virtuoso performer, Hubbard's rich full tone is never lost, even when he plays dazzlingly fast passages. As one of the greatest hard bop trumpeters of our time. He is perhaps one of the greatest technical trumpet players ever to play in the jazz idiom and arguably the most influential. Freddie moved to New York at the age of 20 and quickly astonished fans and critics alike with the depth and maturity of his playing. He worked with veteran jazz artists Philly Joe Jones, Sonny Rollins, Slide Hampton, J.J. Johnson , Eric Dolphy, and Quincy Jones with whom he toured Europe. He was barely 22 when he recorded "Open Sesame," his solo debut for Blue Note Records (on the recommendation of Miles Davis)."

NYT LINK "THANKS to advances in computing power, we can analyze music in radically new and different ways. Computers are still far from grasping some of the deep and often unexpected nuances that release our most intimate emotions. However, by processing vast amounts of raw data and performing unprecedented large-scale analyses beyond the reach of teams of human experts, they can provide valuable insight into some of the most basic aspects of musical discourse, including the evolution of popular music over the years. Has there been an evolution? Can we measure it? And if so, what do we observe? In a recent article published in the journal Scientific Reports, we and our co-authors used computers to analyze 464,411 Western popular music recordings released between 1955 and 2010, including pop, rock, hip-hop, folk and funk. We first looked for static patterns characterizing the generic use of primary musical elements like pitch, timbre and loudness. We then measured a number of general trends for these elements over the years."

EARLY EARLY ORNETTE, JEANNE LEE, CECIL HOW MUCH DOES ONE HAVE TO GIVE TO BE REAL. THERE IS ONLY SO MUCH CREATIVE GAS IN EACH OF US. THIS WORLD ASKS CREATIVE ARTISTS FOR FAR TOO MUCH. DON'T THE BEST ARTISTS ULTIMATELY JUST START IMITATING OURSELVES?

Russell and her quartet are headed from New York City to the 2012 Monterey Jazz Festival (next weekend), and she's making a stop in Sacramento for a show Friday at Harlow's.
