Miguel Zenon and Luis Padermo at the Regattabar in Cambridge, MA. Beautiful set.

RIP Michael. He leaves quite a legacy.

What a loss. I've had many of his solography books for years and find his more recent online files quite handy.
I was in contact with him a few times over the years and found him quite pleasant and helpful.
RIP Jan.

I received my "shipping notice" on December 4, but the order still hasn't left the "Label Created" stage.
Same here. I picture a stack of Byas boxes waiting to be picked up.

It was a mistake. Mosaic sent me a cd with the missing version by Prima.

Good show. My first time seeing him live. Lloyd was very lyrical at times. My wife loved it as well. As expected, he played tenor and flute, but he also played a reddish/brownish straight saxophone (a stritch, perhaps?) at the beginning of his first encore. It looked somewhat like a rosewood clarinet, but it sounded like a saxophone.
I just looked online. It was a tárogató.

Went last night to see Charles Lloyd (with Jason Moran, Eric Harland, and Reuben Rogers) in Boston.

Chuck,
There was an exhibit of artwork by Pee Wee Russell and George Wettling (who had studied with Stuart Davis) at Wilkes College in 1986. The exhibition booklet is available here: https://www.wilkes.edu/about-wilkes/arts/sordoni-art-gallery/past-exhibitions/_assets/_pdf_archives/1986-April-27-Pee-Wee-Russelland-Geaorge-Wettling.pdf. There's some useful information there about his paintings.
I have a copy as well as a copy of the exhibition poster.
Jon

The information posted earlier in the thread (appended below) is correct.

Some of the names on the label appear to be either made up (contractual reasons?) or just wrong.

I think that he lived on the same street that I did when I was a kid. Of course, I had no idea who he was at the time.

Here’s an early one:
Shag. Sidney Bechet.

I was in NYC over the weekend. I can confirm the prevalence of weed odors on the street.

As was his Chicago compatriot George Wettling.
Wettling studied with Stuart Davis. Wettling took art lessons from him and gave drum lessons to Stuart Davis in return.

A real “sleeper” I imagine. Sorry, couldn’t resist! 😀
I hope it turns up.

Anybody got any'78s? (I used to have the original BB&B release but broke both when I moved to Santa Barbara. Kept the album cover though.)
Yes, I have a lot of Ellington 78s.

I think I have an album of Mancini tunes that he and Phil Woods recorded.

I recommend the release on Timeless.

Well, this sounds exciting (not):

WUSF’s General Manager JoAnn Urofsky told Creative Loafing Tampa Bay that the jazz show “will be replaced with great public radio programs beginning Monday, October 31.” Those programs include the news program “1A Plus,” the current affairs show “As It Happens” and the second hour of “Science Friday,” which highlights entertaining stories about science and technology. “The changes mean WUSF 89.7 will become entirely focused on news and information, including weather and safety, so we can better serve the residents of Florida.”

The article mentions Vic Hall as a frequent guest. I remember him from the record bashes in New Jersey.
