anybody have a bunch of obscure paul robeson for trade? thanks

"Excited because its on Uptown"??? What the fuck is that? Who the fuck has said that?? People are excited because, as described by Jim in the first post of this thread, this is a never-before heard performance that is, if those who have heard it are to be believed, amazing. Can you say the same thing about the Philology releases?

you're hurting my feelings.

btw, when i say that those jams are unissued, i mean not officially issued. they're available on bootlegs. just find a hendrix collector. most of them have this stuff.

in defence of their leaving, there were enough discographical mistakes on some of those trees, that these people really were not up to the task. the 70's tree gave 2 copies of 6/11/75 bottom line as two different shows. on the 'odds and ends' cd, the 'unknown 20min' was never resolved by them to actually be from 3-6-70 fillmore. and when one of the names at that link above sent a wrong cd to me on a trade, he gave a huge paragraph of explanations, basically blaming it on the bootleggers, when all he did is dub a wrong cd. he wouldn't admit to it though. and the 'i know it all' michael mclaughlin guy who contributed a lot of recordings to the trees really doesn't know shit about discographies. probably doesn't know the location of losin's miles discography link.

lawrence of newark is *the* larry young album to have. there is another item that may be overlooked. on hendrix '9 to the universe' lp, released circa 1980, there is a 1969 jam called 'young/hendrix' (produced by alan douglas - so, he did do some good things). anyway, even though the tune is edited from 13m down to 10m, there is remarkable interplay between young and hendrix on this jam. like two people who've played together for years. it also shows a serious jazz side of hendrix, which we would have seen more of, had he not choked. they released another jam from this session (i believe the title is "it's too bad") on a 4 cd hendrix box, but that one is not very exciting. and there is a 3rd unreleased tune from the session. it's called 'world traveler'. that one is quite good also. and last, but not least, there is a 20min jam that is pretty outrageous, goes through a lot of changes. but the 'young/hendrix' jam gives us what is probably the best glimpse into a lot of avenues that could have happened with hendrix and jazz. a quote from one of miles' sidemen: "the band of gypsys album traumatized miles".

this is the best grant green that i have (i only have green in trio and piano settings). be sure to get the bonus track 'deep river'.

a session of shepp doing ellington tunes. that's some radical jazz listening. at least you have the right shepp decade. but i'm sure that's just a coincidence.

what sucks about the wes verve/a&m years is that he recorded in the same studio, at the same time with the orchestras. if he'd recorded with his rhythm section, and then the orchestra was overdubbed afterwards, then we would probably have a box set by now of wes' verve/a&m recordings without the orchestra. it's a catastrophy. those orchestra arrangements are rarely anything less than obnoxious. have to fastforward to wes' solos on practically every track.

http://www.plosin.com/milesAhead/Sessions.aspx?s=560218 there is a new entry on losin's site. 35min. someone said that it's on easytree, but i couldn't find it.

a good guess would be that it's the peacock alley, st. louis material. that stuff never was officially released.

but just in case, you should consider releasing more of chet "i have no talent, but the white boys like me cause i look good on the album covers" baker.

hey chuck, it looks like the philology guy's already releasing parts of the 45 town hall concert that you've been teasing people with. by the time you get it out, it could already be on philology. Bird's Eyes, Volume 67 (Philology W 898 (CD-R)) Title: Bird's Eyes, Volume 67 June 22, 1945 (2 items; TT = 6:31) Town Hall, New York NY Private recording (acetate) Dizzy Gillespie All-Stars Dizzy Gillespie (tpt); Charlie Parker (as); Al Haig (p); Dillon "Curly" Russell (b); Max Roach (d) Groovin' High (D. Gillespie-F. Paparelli) (incomplete) 4:28 Cut off during piano solo. Hot House (T. Dameron) (incomplete) 2:03 Cut off during piano solo. Groovin' High (incomplete) CD: Philology Volume 67 (W 898) Hot House (incomplete) CD: Philology Volume 67 (W 898) --- i'm sure that you have a great lawyer, who won't be able to do shit about this. btw, are you making a cross country tour with that tape? stopping by different towns in the country. like a politician.

after hearing the long ayler interviews on the revenant box, a lot of stuff in this online book (which was compiled from various sources) is now shown to be incorrect. i.e. don ayler leaving the band. he had to stay home, and that's why he wasn't at the fondation maeght concerts.

i don't think tape collectors have these. the title does not sound familiar.

he played with lateef in 1978, and pharoah in 1979, 1993-96. and yes, he is good. as far as getting in touch with him, you'd have to post a query to bass forums (on google groups alt.guitar.bass; and alt.bass), or he may have his own website.

is the remastered cd exactly the same mix as the lp. larry young's organ is way in the back of the mix on the lp. thanks Devotion [ORIGINAL RECORDING REMASTERED] John McLaughlin http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...=glance&s=music review from amazon: This CD was "remastered" from a vinyl copy & for that reason alone, I would say avoid it if you can. >>>>

this release was distributed on the ayler-tree a year or so ago. esp could have released previously unheard music. but he (stollman) chose not to do so.

wan't that said about stitt, mclean, etc? people say a lot of things that they don't mean.

allen, buddy, i thought we were pals?

Allen, don't worry, l p will have a comeback for that. Dizzy must have made those comments to make the whites happy, get a new gig, or make a little extra cash. Or, he may have just been delirious. If I remeber correctly, Jaco Pastorius was the only white dude in jazz that ever made the cut in l p's ears. He likey Jaco. casesta is a repeater pencil, but he's got it right. and he got it right when he said the same thing about 2 weeks ago. all the stuff that i'm saying has been said by others before. in books and in interviews. and as an aside, i'd love to take credit for this quote, but i can't: >It's always fascinating to see how JSngry can >post hundreds of words that contain absolutely no information.

in that thread, "these people" meant record companies, night club owners, etc. you no make sense. grasping at straws. Also if Feather is "just a piece of shit who HAPPENED to be Jewish [my emphasis]," how, again, was he "a huge ugly blotch on the jewish race in the jazz world"? Go ahead, lp, take your dog out for a walk but don't then insist that it's a pussy cat. <<< because he did a lot of nasty things to people (read: musicians). and he's still considered a decent guy by most. those who don't know any better.

i'll quote chuck nessa, and ask you to read the whole thread. otherwise you're assuming.

lp -- Enlighten me on how Leonard Feather was " a huge ugly blotch on the jewish race in the jazz world." Yes, Leonard was a self-promoting jerk in many respects, but how does one's feelings about that behavior transfer to the "race"? Are you saying that Feather's behavior springs from and relates specifically to his Jewishness? >>> no. he was just a piece of shit who happened to be jewish. but he's a great example of a person who went through a lot of trouble to take advantage of people whenever possible. there is an old related thread on bluenote in google groups. Sticking with promoter/record biz types, Alfred Lion is generally regraded as a man of sterling reputation and high achievement. If you agree (perhaps you don't), does Lion being the man he was amount to a huge lovely bouquet to "the Jewish race"? >>>> i don't know anything about alfred lion's business tactics/reputation among musicians. If you agree, staying in this realm, that John Hammond was somewhat equivocal figure in many respects, is Hammond then "a huge ugly blotch" on White Anglo-Saxon Protestants? >>> hammond was a piece of shit too. this is a man who got billie holiday fired from the basie band because she refused to sing all blues songs. a lot of people have a lot of bad things to say about john hammond. you need to read more books. or ask chris albertson. he'll bitch about anybody you name. even if he has to make shit up.

that's because kofsky is one of the few whites who tells it like it is, no matter the consequences. and probably has more taste in music than the average joe (or chris for that matter).
