  1. I had a chance earlier this year to thank Cheryl P for all her hard work on this years long project, so I did.
  2. Thanks, that was indeed lovely.
  3. Blue Velvet, The Clovers, I think that's Gator Tail on the sax
  4. To my surprise, no I don't think either has been mentioned. since I have the Elvis on an otherwise non-Xmas all blues compilation, it gets played year-round. Thanks.
  5. Finally got a hard copy of this one, so I now have everything Muddy did for Chess save for a few singles. And Electric Mud and After the Rain and the Super Duper Pooper Scooper albums, 'cause I don't like those. No haycorns or thistles either. But still, lots of Muddy to listen to in various configurations.
  6. The second one i posted is a series drawn from the Imperial label. There is a good box of things on Specialty:
  7. Wild sax from the aforementioned Savoy Roots of Rock and Roll series, the sounds are as epic as the cover art. I have several volumes from this series, to which the guys from Canned Heat contributed rare 78s
  8. What a crazy game. That was Toronto's QB's first ever playoff game. Spent most of his life as a backup, all the way back to high school. So many interceptions, but not on him - on the Blue Bomber's experienced QB.
  9. This and other Blue Note from the '40s that's now redundant for me that I'm going to send to my brother as soon as I finish writing something about it.
  10. Regarding the subscription thing, just another reason to be glad I already have a near complete BN collection.
  11. and it was too old, not ugly. Hopkins was a great player. Also played in the first Jeff Beck Group with Rod, Ronnie, and Micky Waller
  12. Lou made fun records in many styles, serious fun. And he brought Horace Silver and Grant Green to BN. IIRC he played on early recordings of both Round Midnight and Bags Groove. You could do comps of him doing R&B covers (and singing on them!) and playing Charlie Parker tunes and playing pretty on standards, and all 3 would be great.
  13. My dad was a big Sellers fan, especially The Mouse That Roared and the Goon Show, so it's hard for me to separate that from my appreciation of Sellers. It's kind of odd because my dad wasn't like Sellers at all. very solid and stable.
  14. I heard them on YouTube, not sure if they are still there. One track, "Blues For Mr. Tatum" IIRC, was pretty standard issue Blue Note boogaloo, not that there's anything wrong with that. That's right, except it's 1968 not '63, I thought it was 5 tunes but it's 6 so I guess there's still one I haven't heard.
