That is exactly the impression I get when listening to his solo recordings. For a Fats Waller imitator (this said in the nicest sense), check Pat Flowers.

Someone reported in the duke-lym list that the track listings for CD 1, on the jewel box rear insert and the booklet, do not agree and both are wrong. Proposed correct listing is as follows: 1. Someone 2. Riff Staccato 3. Homesick, That's All 4. Kissing Bug 5. Take The "A" Train (theme) 6 Take The "A" Train (theme) 7. Time's A-Wastin' (Things Ain't What They Used To Be) 8. DE Bond Promo 9. Three Cent Stomp 10. There's No You 11. Fancy Dan 12. Everything But You 13. Fickle Fling 14. DE Bond Promo 15. Blue Serge (into close) 16. Take The "A" Train (theme) 17. Stompy Jones 18. Walkin' With My Honey 19. Lilly Belle 20. Everything But You 21. In A Mellotone 22. Solid Old Man Storyville will replace the incorrect liner notes and insert, if you contact them. Regards, Agustín

That's much more convincing, of course!

This Crazeology playlist includes all four tracks for this "Black California" Savoy issue: Crazeology

Bertrand: The online version of Tom Lord's discography does include "I'll Remember April" as part of Savoy SJL2215: But take a look at this ebay auction. Unless the information from seller it's not correct, it looks like it's "Outlandish" the track edited out from this Savoy two-lp compilation: ebay auction Regards, Agustín

I will post this tonight. Sadly, for the number of posts in this thread, it looks like there's not much interest on good old Johnny!

I am looking for the complete and detailed discographical information from: Jean Loup Longnon Big Band - Torride! (52e Rue Est LP, catalog number RE 003, issued on 1984) I already have what Tom Lord's Discography (on-line version) lists, so any additional information is highly welcome. Thanks in advance! Agustín

I've done a new count this morning: 282 discs. My insanity grows every month (my wife would say).

Got it. That was a great deal! THANKS!

There's a very good article by Jack Chambers about Duke Ellington's stockpile recordings on Coda #328 (July-August, 2006): “Duke Ellington's Parallel Universe: The Secret Stockpile"

Apart from vol. 13 of the DETS series, the email I got from Storyville also announced the release of: http://www.storyvillerecords.com/default.a...mp;state_2838=2 Good news indeed!

Just received an email from Storyville announcing the release of vol. 13 of the DETS series: http://www.storyvillerecords.com/default.a...mp;state_2837=2

Mike: for several reasons, I'm afraid I won't be able to compile the August 2008 BFT. Please, move me to the end of the list. Regards, Agustín

12 new Leader Discographies have been added, among them George Wallington, Jimmy Giuffre and Ted Curson. This makes 249. As usual, you can email Mike at mike@jazzdiscography.com with corrections, additions or suggestions.

Louis Mazetier's last album on Arbors, "Tributes, portraits & other stories" is an absolute masterpiece. It features not only stride numbers (wonderful rendition of "Anitra's Dance", of Lion's "Sneakaway"...) but shows a wider range of piano playing. Mazetier has matured as a pianist and proves his taste on several ballads (wonderful high note punctuations, good use of space, sense of timing), but also as a composer (besides his classics "François" -rendition to the late François Rilhac- and "Tango Seville", he brings some interesting new compositions). Highly recommended!!!
