oh, i know that! my wife surprised me everyday with lots of fun stuff to do. (iron; wash up; washing the laundry; give off dust with the vacuum cleaner, etc.) keep boppin´ marcel

also from here: happy birthday, holy ghost! keep boppin´ marcel

is kenny g on the left or the right side? keep boppin´ marcel

welcome (back), jazzjazz! i have 2/3 of your wonderful jazzrealities cds (jutta hipp and hans koller). are there plans for more? keep boppin´ marcel

that would be interesting (with pork pie hat?) keep boppin´ marcel

thanks for the news, brownie. i think they have great liner notes (as always). but for me there is nothing new on it. in 1995 the "masters of jazz" series on "média 7" was complete. but unfortunately this great project and label disappeared after ca. 200 cds of complete cronological recordings of various artists. more or less impossible to find them in these days. keep boppin´ marcel

yes, i´m a joyce fan but i think the sound quality on this records was always not so good. but there are a lot of good big band jazz (one night stand; jubilee; victory of spotlight bands; v-discs) on it that was not avaiable elswhere! keep boppin´ marcel

and here is another radio show (48 minutes long) with more sound snippets and a conversation with Loren Schoenberg and Michael Cogswell: http://www.onpointradio.org/2010/09/new-jazz-gems click on the "listen to this show" at the top of the site. keep boppin´ marcel

also this year: happy birthday, gslade! keep boppin´ marcel

got mine today. sound is o.k. to my ears. for me it´s a little sensation to find and release a total unknown concert recording of a great performer. why they can´t do this with the lester young library of congress jam sessions or the bill savory collection? i was delighted to read in the liner notes that "hep" hopes to release a comprhensive edition of the july 23, 1949 shrine concert of woody herman at some point in the near future. i can only say: every new issue of "hep" is a treasure! very rare in these days!! keep boppin´ marcel

also for this year, all the best to you, sidewinder! keep boppin´ marcel

hereis another podcast with the intro of hawkins body and soul. keep boppin´ marcel

thanks a lot christiern! a rare treasury! please look into your archives and post more!!! this is historic! keep boppin´ marcel

thanks, brownie, for posting this link. seeing coleman hawkins with the clarinet is very unaacustomed and he looks indisposed. keep boppin´ marcel

from the savory collection: here is a podcast were you can here at minute 15:00 charlie christian´s solo on "shivers" from fall 1939. Larry Rohter and Loren Schoenberg talked about the collection. http://artsbeat.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/08/19/popcast-is-katy-perry-for-real/?scp=4&sq=savory&st=cse b.t.w. on the national jazz museum homepage you can hear more sound snippets! keep boppin´ marcel

or look here. keep boppin´ marcel

i´m totally !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! for years there were rumours about this collection. (imagine, the randall islans open air concert). was bill savory the husband of helen ward? (i´m not at home to confirm it). there was a few years ago a sell on ebay with a few books from the ward/savory estate and they described that the recording collection was lost. (maybe my recollections are wrong...) this is one of the greatest finds in recent years (and it can be compared with the bird/dizzy town hall concert 1945 or the lester young jam session (still unissued)). put bill savory together with jerry newman, bob andrews, boris rose and timme rosencrantz! they all captured great music for the future. hope this collection will go published!!! keep boppin´ marcel

happy birthday, jazzbo! hope this year without fever...! keep boppin´ marcel

thanks, ghost of miles, for this great news. have just ordered one! keep boppin´ marcel
