From the RedHotJazz group:

I posted your query/suggestion in the RedHotJazz list... But no replies so far.

Thanks for the clarification, ValerieB. I received this from Steve Voce via the duke-lym list.

Clark Terry's wife Gwen has posted the latest news:

I'll be in Vienna for the "expanded" weekend. I would appreciate any recommendations on jazz spots: jazz clubs, concerts, CD/LP jazz stores... Many thanks in advance! Agustín

I don't recall posting the above, but I have to wonder why I am now—six years later—writing notes for the complete King Jazz boxed set (5 CDs) Have I entered the twilight zone? Anyway, the release of that box set, and your writting of the liner notes is really good news!

Just received an email from David Sager announcing this upcoming reissue of the complete output of the Wolverines, including the Jimmy McPartland sides: The Complete Wolverines: 1924-1928 Coming April 10 Archeophone Records website

'Bout time SWR radio did something with their "Treffpunkt Jazz" and other jazz concert performances that have taken place at their premises for decades. Just checked their website but so far only the big, bigger, biggest names have been graced with a release. Whereas they could have done SO much to further the discography of German jazz greats (or "Eurojazz" in general) too. Thanks anyway for mentioning this label. I totally subscribe your opinion! Meanwhile, I'll order the Benny Goodman feat. Anita O'Day as well...

Amazing find! Uptown always surprises us with incredible discoveries, properly treated soundwise and with extensive research that turns into excellent and massive liner notes with plenty of graphical documentation. :tup

Amazing stuff, Chris! Thanks for sharing. I hope that, in following chapters, he will tell something about his stays in Spain in 1926 and 1929 as part of his Europeans tours. I am doing extensive research on the chronology and details of this part of his life through the archives of several Spanish newspapers and radio stations. BTW, have you contacted the Jazz Oracle troupe? They're preparing a Sam Wooding compilation with his European recordings and your interviews could be an essential research tool.

I will check my copy tonight!

Do you have any proof? The guys at the TAS don't, either. Listening to the stupidity in itself yesterday (I mean Prudhomme, of course) made me definitely sick. OK, I will say it. I'm not impartial this time. On one hand, because Contador is one of my personal sports heroes, up there with Rafa Nadal and Pau Gasol. On the other, because I have some inside information, that makes me strongly believe in his innocence.

This is a f***in' shame, period!, when "others whose name I won't mention" are free of charges. :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

Wonderful photographs, brownie!

Here is a copy of an e-mail from Scott E. Brown, the biographer of James P. Johnson. He seeks information from fans or musicians who saw JPJ in live performance and would like to include personal anecdotes of those performances in his 2nd edition: >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I am the biographer of James P.
