I think I lost about 600 or 700 posts, but I don´t give a damn! (wait, if I´m posting here, maybe I give!)

Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers Jimmy "Fast Fingers" Dawkins

Yes, you can see her ugly soul there!

Maybe Little's best album--the band is sick, the performances are wonderful, and the charts are beyond belief--hope you dig it! Yeah! It´s an absolutely wonderful album! At the same level that those incredible Dolphy-leaded Five Spot live discs!

You mean those awful and boring b/w pages? Oh, I took the time to tear them page by page and gave them to my children, so that they can use their brandnew box of crayons!

Oops, now I can see that BIG photo, GOM!

Thanks, guys! Catesta: just came home after having a few of those Cruzcampo beers... cold as ice, of course! David: looks like that Bix photo from Albert Haim´s site is not showing. Anyway... Bix lives!

Mmmm, just another keyboard without "ñ".... Thanks a lot, Mike!

Thanks, Flurin. Yes, we´re in our new (bigger and with a lot more room for CDs ) appartment. We survived the removal and have basically settled... just a few dozens of boxes to be opened in our lumber room...

Thanks to all! In fact my birthday celebration started yesterday, as my wife had secretly prepared an intimate dinner at a nice restaurant we like a lot. (worst thing has been getting up early today and coming to work...)

Don´t miss this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dXK1NXVbAI4&search=eldridge Sidney Bechet: Sweet Georgia Brown (1958) ... and look who´s playing drums!

BTW: Line-up was: Ornette Coleman (as, t, v) Tony Falanga (b) Al MacDowell (el b) Denardo Coleman (d)

Thanks all for your input. It was a great concert. Ornette´s blowing was powerful, with his particular phrasing and his incisive tone. Ballads, blues, latin rhythms, some classics ("Lonely Woman", "Turnaround"...) and some "outter" stuff. Denardo Coleman´s unsubtle drumming was the worst part of the concert (happily, the volume was quite reduced for the drums!). Not just a piece of nostalgia. A REALLY GOOD performance (imho)
