What's with the French sense of humor?
l p replied to Dmitry's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
check out the films of Quentin Dupieux. the funniest french writer/director in recent years. i'd say that his movies are in the comedy / absurdist category. Nonfilm (2001) on Uploaded by the director. with english subtitles. Steak (2007) Rubber (2010) Wrong (2012) * Wrong Cops (2013) * Realite (2014) ** * english language ** mostly english language -
Slam Stewart & Major Holley recorded a couple of co-leader albums together Two Big Mice http://www.discogs.com/Slam-Stewart-Major-Holley-Two-Big-Mice/release/2405206 Shut Yo' Mouth http://www.discogs.com/Slam-Stewart-Major-Holley-Shut-Yo-Mouth/master/572581

Major Holley it's not the same thing. Major Holley made it part of his routine. i think slam stewart did it too? one of these 2 seemed to do it on every solo that he took, which gets old very fast.

this is actually kind of funny, and doesn't seem to be coming from a hateful place (as evidenced when he mentions country music at the end).

https://slought.org/resources/interview_john_coltrane this is the cleanest copy that i've heard.

shepp's playing is fine here, but the sound of his sax is extremely harsh to me. i didn't notice it in the past on the 2 takes that we've had before, but it really struck me when listening to this longer version of the session. i'm not very used to hearing his mid-60's playing. with him out of the way, instead of a jam-like atmosphere, all you hear is jc doing clean takes of acknowledgement.
-
shepp is completely out of the mix when listening only to the left channel on the 12.10.64 session. it seems better. i don't like shepp's 1960's hoarse tone. for me, it clashes with coltrane's sound.

i've often wondered if belden mistakenly put the wrong take on the box set. this doesn't have trumpet.

i wonder what this m.f. is so bitter about. a walking cautionary tale. -
Jazz documentaries on YouTube - recommendations?
l p replied to BillF's topic in Miscellaneous Music
i think that this is the only documentary that includes the complete tv clip with the interview before hot house. most docs omit the interview. if it's not this one, then it's 'bird lives'. but i think that it's this one. -
i think they may have purposely changed the year to suit their timeline needs, whatever those may be. it's just common knowledge that the instructional video is from 1985. i kept hoping for some footage from 1987... i don't usually look at these, but i kept wondering why my dvd wasn't shipped yet- blu ray Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #10 in Movies & TV > Blu-ray > Documentary dvd Amazon Best Sellers Rank: #6 in Movies & TV > DVD > Documentary

yes, i saw that too. he was actually just listening to jemmott talk, but they took out the sound and made it look like he was contemplating jemmott's 'deep' question. the very first scene of the documentary, which is also from the above video, gives the year as '1983 or 1984', when they know full well that it's 1985 (summer). i wrote to info@stephenkijak.com (the director) about this, and got this reply from kijak's assistant: >>>Kijak stepped off of JACO over a year and a half ago - Mr Paul Marchand was responsible for finishing the film so blame him for the fuck up. >>> after a short while i just fast forwarded whenever an interviewee was on screen. peter erskine had some insightful things to say, and bobby thomas was ok too. but having 20 rock people talking in a documentary about a jazz musician is in poor taste.

it's interesting that the 2cd version is hidden on amazon, and can't be found just by doing a regular search. by verve's request, i would think. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Dpopular&field-keywords=coltrane+A+Love+Supreme+The+Complete+Masters&rh=n%3A5174%2Ck%3Acoltrane+A+Love+Supreme+The+Complete+Masters

amazon and cduniverse keep running out of this release, which i guess is a good thing in terms of popularity. the documentary itself is the usual talking heads crap. but there's so much home footage included throughout, that you can turn the sound off and be satisfied with just the visuals. the criteria sessions cd was supposedly the best selling record store day item when it was released in april 2014.

i may be confused, because for the past couple of years this label has been releasing new wes with cd titles that are similar to each other, and some (only one?) vinyl releases are previews for cd's that are released the following year with a different cd title (read: this is all kind of b.s. on their part), but wasn't this supposed to be a 2 cd set when it was first announced?
-
just 1 cd instead of 2?

Tracks missing on the Fremeaux Louis Armstrong series
l p replied to Steve Gray's topic in Discography
that's good, that way you won't be disappointed. there's a lot of rare/hard to find live material on the volumes thus far, but they're not close to being complete. they skip over tunes, even ones that were previously issued. -
i posted this tune not only because some may not have heard it, but because discographies list it as a club in los angeles, and the backing band as also singing the harmony vocals. the harmony vocals sound too perfect for this to be a nightclub performance. i think it may be a studio recording?
