  1. kind of a strange effect with the shadow of the score across his face, but not physically impossible so I'm not sure if that's 'surreal' or not...but it is lovely music!
  2. Man, that strikes me as wildly optimistic. Playing in the background at shops and restaurants counts as meaningful exposure? I'd be willing to bet in most places, if you asked people when they left if they remembered if there even WAS music playing in the background they'd likely not remember. When I worked in records shops (various shops and times in the '90s), 'I heard this in a coffee shop' was a big source of inquiries - also a hard one because even if they asked for info on the recording it often got messed up somehow...
  3. UCCI-9287 Love-in-Ass All Pharoah Sanders No comment!
  4. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfollv1111I seveeral more from Buddy as well, IIRC
  5. My memory is that in the 70s Lagers and Pilsners were the biggest sellers but that Ales like Molson's Export and Labatts '50' were significant sellers. Molsons and Labatts both made Stouts as well, but they were not big sellers. In Saskatchewan, all of this would apply to bottle sales only, as we had 'pool' draft ( a unique Sask thing, I believe). I think ales may have outsold Lagers and Pilsners further east in Canadia.
  6. the first side of this with diz, bud and Roy Haynes, including Round Midnight and my fav version of Night in Tunesia
  7. In my youth, there were many older houses in Saskatoon which had kitchen drawer handles which functioned quite well as beer bottle openers.
  8. ...and Hey There +10 is mostly Babes Blues (minus the tune "Babes Blues"), but it does have the previously unissued Billy Boy and I don't have Hey There itself, so...maybe I'll get it.

  11. So, you've got me intrigued, who else is on this album with Sir Charles & Percy? And I love Roy Haynes!
  12. Here Tis has '+1', guess I'll find out how much I'll pay for just a little more of Lou & Grant & Babyface...
  13. That's why the CFL season isn't any longer!
  14. ...and you still don't need the Weathermen to know which way the wind blows!
  15. The whole Newborn family were deeply intwined in Memphis music, some of the early Stax guys worked with Phineas Sr.
  16. So, this is going to be some 'inside' music...?
  17. And didn't Buddy DeFranco do an album under L. Feather's auspecies on Bass clarinet with the then current Jazz Messengers? I think I own this...or maybe it was a dream?
  18. "It's not like the man was Herman Lubinsky or something." RIP, he helped Monk get to where he could get some $.
  19. Love what Bennie Maupin did on bass clarinte in an ensemble role on Bitches Brew...
  20. Sam Rivers did some interesting things with his bass clarinet before someone stole it.
  21. Can't argue with that, wouldn't want to.
  22. Glyn Johns, Sound Man. Enjoyable but not very insightful on the people or very detailed on the technical end. Claims he was the first UK engineer to make the transition to producer. Some interesting observations on the many musicians and industry people he's met. Not afraid to say he doesn't like someone. I think he can afford to be candid.
  23. What?! You mean Tuesday is no longer my good news day? When I worked in record stores that was how you knew a customer was really hardcore, if they knew Tues was new release day (in north America).
