I guess so. But why didn't he do a trial run with that hand held camera stuffed all up in his grill? That was the stupidest fucking thing I ever saw. That's all I needed was a nasty-assed close up of some dweebs face while he struts around singing about how fine he is and how his baby did him wrong. No thanks, give me an unprofessional street performer banging on tin cans any day.

Chunks? If that's chunky to you then what type of girls do you like?

Jimmy Mak's or The Blue Monk (Dr. Lonnie Smith just played there last week) are the places to check out in Portland. Some others along the west coast would be Sam Bond's Garage in Eugene, OR and The Mobius in Asland, OR. Check out Moody's in Truckee, CA, Downtown Brewing Co in San Luis Obisbo, Pearl's Jazz in Frisco, the Baked Potato in LA, and Kuumbwa Jazz Center in Santa Cruz. (I'll PM you all the contact info tomorrow). As far as Seattle goes, just say the word and I'll hook up a Reptet/Organissimo double bill. What time frame are you guys looking at?

It's a CD which contains five excellent performances by the John Coltrane Quartet from two occasions when drummer Roy Haynes filled in for Elvin Jones. Although Haynes had a different approach on the drums than Jones, he fit in perfectly with the group, stimulating Coltrane to play brilliantly throughout these two sessions.

It's a psychological response sometimes seen in an abducted hostage, in which the hostage exhibits loyalty to the hostage-taker, in spite of the danger (or at least risk) in which the hostage has been placed. Stockholm is also sometimes discussed in reference to other situations with similar tensions, such as battered person syndrome, rape cases, child abuse cases, and bride kidnapping.

I will be scanning and posting shortly, but we got a half page spread (with fine band photo) and the top slot on his top 10 list. He also left these words of praise: Reptet - Do This! (Monktail) This Seattle sextet does it all: it grooves, it rocks, it squawks - occasionally, it even talks. Mostly, it sounds like a New Orleans jazz band on crystal meth.

Patrick, I'm so glad you are enjoying our music. The gig we did at Twins in October was a blast. Bertrand and Stefan were there representing the board (weizle was too scared to show his face around me ). It was the last show of the tour, the place was hot, we were sounding very tight and I sweat so much it looked like I pissed my pants when we were done. But don't despair. We plan on being around for a long time to come and will certainly play in DC and the surrounding area in the not so distant future. Right now were working on a west coast trip for spring.

Horace Tapscott Sextet - Dial 'B' for Barbara on Nymbus West
Johnny E replied to Head Man's topic in Recommendations
Me too. BTW head man, Sabir Matten has gone on to have a very artistically successful career after Horace. He played with Sun Ra for a bit (being from Philly), then in the NY subways and beyond with TEST, sessions with Hamid Drake, Daniel Carter and others.
