1. a very steady swinger to start things out. The guys are obviously having a lot of fun with this. Some of the lush supporting horn arrangements remind me of Ellington. The clarinet does not really ring a bell. In spots the tune reminds me of Bei mir bist du schön. 2. KD is my guess and Pepper too. And the tune rings some LOUD bells. Bull's Eye! Got it! The album never struck me as very strong, but damn if this isn't a great tune. Need to pull that disk out again. Thanks for the prod! 3. late 60s piano trio. Spiffy stuff! Reminiscent of Tyner at times (not him). No guesses, but much appreciation for the flashy performance. 4. Djangoesque geetarr, plenty doubt it is him. More likely a hommage. I like it. 5. drats, pretty sure I know this one or at least half of the players. Especially the trumpeteer sounds more than a tad familiar. He brings in specks of KD and Lee, pretty unique that. The baritone might be Payne. I'll slap my head when the answer is revealed fersure. 6. woa! cool ivories! the horns are too loud at times, but this is great. 7. tune sounds familiarly Dameronian. The trumpet is killing me, sure I should know, but my mind simply draws a blank. None of the remainder is helpful in ringing any bells either. Who's that tenor then? Beautiful tune and great pick. (drats!) 8. I enjoyed this a lot but cannot wager any guesses. Good fun this! 9. humhummmmhummmm... shaddapwillya! sounds like Dave Pike. Love the playing and the tune but sadly cannot really enjoy for all the out of tune humming. 10. Luvly. Chaloff maybe, very agile. Alto does some great stuff as well, likely one of those West Coast boppers I never got around to checking out. Good good stuff. 11. May be Blue M. Damn fine rhythm section. Wynton on piano maybe? Simply a great tune with enough to shake a wild booty and enough to sip a serious drink. 12. ding dong! who's there? sounds like Hutcherson and two altos. The alto on the left at times hits a tone that's so close to Dolphy's that it sends shivers down me spine. Not much that fits here if serendipity and AMG hadn't pointed to the prince and the sonny. This album has been on my radar. 13. must be Basie, harrr. Two tenors fighting a friendly battle. Tate & Thompson maybe. 14. judging by the solo, this must be the drummer's date Interesting Monkisms (also in the composition) combined with Guaraldiqua runs on the piano solo. Familiar trumpet and alto, but you can kick me in the shin and I wouldn't throw up any names. This is nice stuff. Just that, nothing more, nothing less, but at times that's better than all the rest! 15. Howard and Fats on Blue Note. One of those that make me go all harrrrrrrrrrr!!!! I usually lose track on who's who once they start their final exchanges. Fantastic! 16. nice, nice stuff. Very dancey, nicely light. Clarinet towards the end is so sadly dryly real, it must be Artie. 17. damn! good stuff this is. no clue whatsoever. great tenor, familiar trumpet, grand baritone. This has some of that yurpeen sound to it; the rhythm section sounds thoroughly american though. Kick me in the shins once more. 18. Spooks! That piano solo is engraved. Grand stuff!

I think you are hearing Monk himself moaning along. His whole body was in spasms when playing, including his vocal chords. Indeed a great album

I don't like cowboy boots

I agree. Maybe you need to give it a little go yourself to find out how difficult this really is. The efforts posted above are only scratching the surface and could be quite rude in the details as those were lacking anyhow from the lo-res photo you posted. If you want good quality prints, you should really consider investing an appropriate amount in the restoration.

see, I left that little piece of info for Aggie to add, but alas...

healing alone won't do it. You'll have to carefully copy and past using the stamp tool to reconstruct some lost 'pixels'. I can understand why a pro might want quite some money for the job. It likely takes several hours for a real good result. The eyebrow will be particularly difficult to get right. With better resolution, the resolution of the touch-ups needs to match which really means a lot more time. yes.

RIP Mr Thompson

August 2 1959, Walter Davis Jr. - Davis Cup (Blue Note) August 3 1985, Tony Coe - Mainly Mancini (Chabada), ctd the next day 1995, John Lurie finished recording for the Get Shorty soundtrack (started August 1)

same here, also on Opera. This slows things down quite a bit here. Using MSIE things are equally slow, also due to pics being downloaded from the .net domain.

not nearly sweaty enough

So he is the mysterious etc. guy. He plays on a lot of albums.

there is an option under [My Controls] (upper right hand side of your screen) -> [board Settings]. Like you mentioned, "no" to smilies means "no" to all posted images.

Cool down man, after all, you were the one who feghed up. People reminding you of your promises aren't exactly committing any crimes. And keeping silent didn't really help to make anyone understand either. You were in over your neck, so just post that you are in over your neck, apologise and carry on. Sheesh, you make it sound like the whole board suddenly turned against you. They might if you keep pushing guilt into their shoes. Now that you have awoken and crowed loudly, get up man, there's woik to do! To the rescue!
