A Carnegie Hall concert from November 23, 1946. First issued on a Italian lp on the Queen label. The four non V-disc tracks from that concert have never been reissued since.

I love the movie and I have a 78 of the Harry Lime theme by Caras . Don't know if I need more.

Ellington V-disc recording consist of: aircheck, concert, transcription etc. recordings. I like the sunrise is an instrumental version of the take used on the Liberian Suite Lp. For the LP the vocal was dubbed over. Most if not all V-discs were issued on various Classics CD's. Thanks to V-discs we have the never completely recorded Deep South Suite.

The set can now be pre ordered. I all ready did through TYQmusic. Jazzmessengers is also possible for European customers.

No Ellington either. I believe the Ellington estate have the same lawyer as the Goodman and Calloway estates.

Today I received an e-mail announcing a special AGM from DESS to discuss dissolution of DESS. Reason being the dwindling number of members. 136 at time of writing. The rising cost of producing the DESS bulletin. The rising age of those in charge and the failure to attract younger members. The bylaws stipulate that the decision of the dissolution must be taken at two consecutive AGM's. The first will be 24 November 2025 and the second no later than 31 March 2026. A sad but inevitable decision. I'll be voting for dissolution not because I want it to end but because it is the only reasonable thing to do. The mail ends with quoting a Duke Ellington song “If you were in my place, what would you do?”

I burned what would have been Duke Ellington Masters of Jazz vol. 13 for myself. After playing vol. 1 to 12 I finish with vol. 13. Vol 14 and further are on the 2 Mosaic boxes and the big RCA box. For me no need to burn more CD's.

Maybe the word Fake should be removed from the tread title.

With an hour to go the match ended in a draw. I think Lestershire could have won. With 12 overs to go Middlesex needed ad least 6 runs per over. Doable but not impossible. This was my first visit to a countyshampionship match. Mixed feelings with so much time lost to rain. Next year I plan one earlier in the year. Maybe Yorkshire.

It’s just past 10:00. The sun is comming through. The covers are comming off. The players are warming up. The umpires will inspect the pitch at 10:15. At the moment it looks like we might have a matchday from the start. Lancashire trail by 106. With the loss of day one and all the interruptions I don’t see the second innings happen. My guess is it will be a draw.

I’m at Old Trafford now. (And day 3 and 4 too.)The sun is out. The covers are off. The toss will be at 11:30. Start of play at 12:00. I’m on stand E4.

Evensmo on line version of his research is more up to date than Koster/Mobach. Search Results for "Lester Young" | JazzArcheology.com

What about Bird with Earl Coleman as the source?

The Savory set is gone.

No, it is still on the website with an 'add to cart button'.
