  1. a photo from this session. this kind of looks photoshopped, but it's not.
  2. thanks. it will be interesting to compare the box set version to the existing 2000's fm broadcast. a raw pre-fm/soundboard recording usually has a fuller sound in the mid and low frequencies than an fm broadcast. of course, the producers of the box will have eq'd ('remastered') the recording for the box. so there may not be any way to tell for certain.
  3. isn't his name uttered on a jazz record. maybe in a poem set to music? probably 1970's.
  4. that's probably right. 'lady be good' is also used as a theme by the piano player, i think at her later concerts.
  5. i can't find a solution for this on the web. why can't i get these 2 albums to play. are they not available? i'm in the u.s. i usually don't have a problem playing spotify albums. thanks Terumasa Hino Live In Concert https://play.spotify.com/album/0WqoBntuKdn4pP4Kj4k5WY Wheel Stone: Live in Nemuro https://play.spotify.com/album/0Elg5yxbPzD9BwAWNLw1h0
  6. the October 22, 1971 dietikon show on this box. did they use the fm broadcast, or do they claim to have used a pre-fm/soundboard recording.
  7. i looked through losin's discography yesterday after you posted. there are no other new items listed for the recording dates that were used for the Cole Porter Song Book album. so the other items that you heard are completely unissued.
  8. there's one new take on the recently issued 'with strings deluxe edition'. do you think that schapp played more than one new take?
  9. other than the interview, what is the point of including cd3.
  10. the discographical info is at http://www.plosin.com/milesAhead/BirdDisco.aspx?id=ParkerESP doesn't look like a great box set. includes some dial and various studio tunes; benedetti stuff. but a lot of the live sessions are complete.
  11. oh, that's nice. i'm going to demand a refund for that online creative writing course.
  12. viewing those photos of the estate sale was very depressing, but in retrospect it would be kind of cool to have something like even an ordinary lamp that was owned by an important jazz musician.
  13. i had a w.c. handy cd which had recordings from 1918, which to me were the earliest jazz recordings in my collection.
  14. I'm told by a not very reliable source that this was Teachout's original ending to the play. I think that he made a good decision in going with the current ending instead. it's much more subtle. … Armstrong comes back from yet another lengthy european tour, only to find glaser in bed with lucille. Armstrong: "so that's why you keep sending me out on tour, you son of a bitch!". Armstrong grabs a gun, and kills them both. With blood all over the room, armstrong is on his knees, wailing "oh lord, I killed my best friend, and that bitch!. I can't live in this world no more". he slowly brings the gun up to his temple. Lights fade. A gunshot is heard. End of play.
  15. >>>Hinton was also well known for his photography and amassed a collection of more than 60,000 images during his lifetime. if these are in the sale, then whoever buys them is going to make a lot of money by selling them individually on ebay, if that's what they choose to do. like the burt goldblatt photos and negatives that have been selling on ebay for the past couple of years.
  16. to see if ricardi's description of it is correct? the only thing that Teachout disputes about the description is that Teachout says that he did insert this line into the play: “It ain’t about the money, got me plenty of that,” . but i suspect that this line was spoken by the actor during the intermission, when the audience was getting coffee.
  17. good point. the play (which i haven't seen) would certainly have been more interesting this way, rather than what it is - taking the stereotypical way out. and it would have been harder to write. probably more than Teachout could handle as a writer, even if he had wanted to tell it that way. i'm sure that he knew both versions of the story, because ricardi seems to have been in touch with him for a long time. and his rebuttal is just silly, and sorely lacking.
  18. good research, and an interesting read. http://dippermouth.blogspot.com/2015/06/louis-armstrong-joe-glaser-and-satchmo.html
  19. avakian had already dealt with deceiving record buyers in december 1955 when he talked louis armstrong into recording in an empty concert hall in milan, complete with spoken tune introductions, with plans of adding audience applause at a later date for the ambassador satch album. then 6 months later the two do a promotional interview for that record in los angeles, and at the beginning of the intv, avakian reminds armstrong that during the intv, they will pretend that they're still in milan 12/55. it's hard not to feel repulsed by this behavior. i would say that all record producers are kind of full of shit.
  20. ...He wrote one of the best jazz biographies... >>> a small, but important clarification - bessie smith is a blues singer, not a jazz singer.
  21. one more "Sunny Side of the Street" (Traditional Line 1340 cd) tracks 1-9 unique spring 1959 europe concert tracks 10-end incomplete repeat of 3/65 prague (columbia) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000281Z2?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00&tag=donations09-20 proof: 2nd page of entry as seen here https://books.google.com/books?id=mvyj8r6puTgC&printsec=frontcover&dq=%22all+of+me%22+%22louis+armstrong%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=BSM7T4-nG8SA2AW0mcmeCg#v=onepage&q=1340&f=false 1st page says spring 1959 concert, unknown location, probably in europe.
  22. Yes, I agree (with the looking hideous part). I definitely can't see anything "art" in them, to me most of the players above look like über kitsch. other than the Goldmund's, they all look pretty cool to me. i'd be curious to know how many units were sold of each of these models, and where. in Dubai?
  23. thanks. that was a tough one.
