i don't have midrange cones. whenever the tweeters blow, they make crackling sound when i listen to recordings that are less than perfect sound quality. i have 2 large speakers on the floor, and 2 bookshelf speakers sitting on top of those. the bookshelf speakers are brighter sound than the floor speakers. the floor speakers haven't had tweeters for years because i got tired of replacing them. i took out the blown tweeters from the bookshelf speakers yesterday. listened to various quality recordings to test, and the overall sound seems fine to me. i don't turn up the amp very loud. up to 3 of 10 at the most on a rare occasion. i'm sure that the tweeters blow because of this - some of the music that i listen to, i have to turn the bass up very high on the equalizer.

my ears don't like high's too much. and the tweeters blow out every few years because with some of the music that i listen to, i have to turn the bass up very high on the equalizer. plus, my ears are getting old. will i really be missing out on a lot if i do without tweeters. thanks

this doesn't sound correct. i think that the compositions were pretty much done by the time he brought them to the band to rehearse/record. he already knew which parts were to be played by which musician/soloist.

Drummers that were/are also very good composers.

based on the responses, the title of this thread should be changed from ...are also very good composers to ...are also composers. -

another good article. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/05/09/did-a-jazzman-bilk-big-easy-s-libraries.html Did a Jazzman Bilk Big Easy’s Libraries? Irvin Mayfield, leader of the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra, has been accused of diverting hundreds of thousands of dollars from a library foundation into the orchestra’s coffers...

http://www.wwltv.com/news/local/investigations/irvin-mayfield/71705584 Mayfield has recorded a salary of between $100,000 and $148,000 a year as NOJO’s artistic director and Markham has made $100,000 a year plus benefits as the orchestra’s executive director, according to tax records. In addition, NOJO has paid Mayfield’s publishing company as much as $109,000 a year for its concert productions and other work. Combined, Mayfield and his production company were paid $210,000 by NOJO in the year ending June 30, 2015, the audit said, all without anything in writing. The audit calls that a significant deficiency, along with some other accounting issues, and NOJO management responded by promising to fix them. http://www.wwltv.com/news/local/investigations/david-hammer/emails-suggest-irvin-mayfield-sought-more-library-money_20160426062907124/153556917 But the station did interview Mayfield's predecessor as Library Foundation president, Craig Mitchell, who said that on several occasions, he had to block Mayfield from using his position on the Library Foundation to collect extra money for himself. He said Mayfield tried to use his charm and celebrity to push questionable deals past the other library board members, and emails from March, April and May 2008 show two apparent examples. In March, Mayfield presented the city library board with a contract to establish a New Orleans Public Library book publishing label. Emails show that the library system was eager to announce a deal, but Mitchell had questions — including about a contract provision that would establish compensation for the "New Orleans Cultural Ambassador." Mitchell said he knew that Mayfield had been named the city's official cultural ambassador by then-Mayor Ray Nagin in 2003. Mitchell interpreted the language as an effort by Mayfield to get paid under the book label deal. Mitchell said. "Once I brought it to light it was pretty much dead. Because you could see on the surface and see that it didn't make sense." Mitchell also recalled that the Library Foundation paid for Mayfield and members of his orchestra to travel to Minnesota in March 2008 and play fundraising gigs during a national library convention. Press coverage at the time praised Mayfield for his energy and dedication to raising money for the city libraries. But Mitchell said that when Mayfield returned, he had collected a new title for himself, jazz director for the Minnesota Orchestra, and did not turn over any proceeds from the performances. >>>>>>>> sounds like he's got the Kwame Kilpatrick bug. more articles at http://www.wwltv.com/news/local/irvin-mayfield-new-orleans-jazz-orchestra-investigation/243871530

Drummers that were/are also very good composers.
l p replied to Hardbopjazz's topic in Miscellaneous Music
this is the only one that i can think of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Denzil_Best Best composed several well-known bebop tunes, including "Move" (which featured, arranged by John Lewis, on the seminal 1957 Miles Davis album, Birth of the Cool), "Wee", "Nothing but D. Best", and "Dee Dee's Dance", as well as (possibly) Thelonious Monk's "Bemsha Swing".[4] Best's composition "45 Degree Angle" was recorded by Herbie Nichols and Mary Lou Williams. -
philology released a cd of outtakes from the session w/Dinah Washington a few years ago.

Fremeaux consistently omits previously released tunes from live sessions on the louis armstrong integrale "complete" volumes, i.e. 1948 paris.
