You can order "Lingua Franca-Cosmic dialects" (Nota299) and "Gentle Ben" (Nota 296) at Jazzos.com. Oops, now I see that "Cosmic dialects" is out of stock.

Lord has two (apparently) redundant and contradictory entries: 1947/11/19 [J2080-4] Jazz Band Buck Clayton (tp) Edmond Hall (cl) Teddy Wilson (p) Sid Weiss (b) Jimmy Crawford (d) Canada Lee (narration) Kenneth Spencer (vcl-1) New York, November 19, 1947 YPR410A Jazz band (ks vcl, cl narr only) (1) Young Peoples Records 410 YPR410B Jazz band (cl narr) Young Peoples Records 410 1947/11/19 [L2212-4] Canada Lee Canada Lee (vcl,narration) Kenneth Spencer (vcl) acc by Jimmy Crawford (d) New York, November 19, 1947 410A Jazz band (pt 1) Young People's Record YPR410 410B Jazz band (pt 2) -

This one? http://www.theallineed.com/news/0502/209950.htm

In fact there are a lot of articles (and even reviews), mistaking Joe Turner for Big Joe Turner. The great stride pianist must bear with that!

There will be a collectors edition in 2006, including four numbered and autographed photographs by Claxton. It will go for about 2.500 €!!! (so this current edition is a bargain!)

I also tried to find the creator´s name, with no result. Not even in the "Notes" section, where the genesis of the website is briefly explained.

bichos mentioned it on another thread, but I thought this amazing website should deserve a separate discussion. A real labour of love! BIRD LIVES...

Thanks for your input, Allen. Let´s hope someday the Eubie Blake Music LPs will be reissued on CD.

Looks like the Golden Reunion in Ragtime LP [stereoddities: C1900] recorded on 1962 by Eubie Blake, Joe Jordan and Charlie Thompson has been reissued on CD by Hapi Skratch (???) :

Eubie Blake playing "Charleston Rag" to be found here (1979): "10th Anniversary New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival" (Flying Fish):

Eubie Blake is included, leading a trio on "Maple Leaf Rag" and "Maryland, My Maryland", in this Jazzology release, "Jammin´ at Rudi´s", recorded on 1951.

There´s also Eubie Blake on CD, as an accompanist for Alberta Hunter:

Gracias, Fernando. There are also three tracks by Eubie Blake and his orchestra on this Frog CD, "Thumpin´ and bumpin´" [DGF11]:

To my knowledge, "The eighty-six years of Eubie Blake" (Columbia C2S847/22223) recorded December 1968-March 1969 [Eubie Blake, Piano solo] hasn´t made it to CD. Neither have made it any of the LPs he made for his own label, Eubie Blake Music: -Eubie Blake, Vol. 1 Featuring Ivan Harold Browning [Eubie Blake Music: EBM1], recorded 1971 by Eubie Blake and Ivan Harold Browning. -Rags to Classics [Eubie Blake Music: EBM2], recorded 1921 & 1971 by Eubie Blake. -Eubie Blake and his Friends Edith Wilson and Ivan Harold Browning [Eubie Blake Music: EBM 3] recorded 1971, performed by Eubie Blake, Edith Wilson and Ivan Harold Browning. -Sissle and Blake: Early Rare Recordings, Vol. 1 [Eubie Blake Music: EBM 4], recorded 1921- 1927 by Sissle and Blake. -Eubie Blake: Live Concert [Eubie Blake Music: EBM 5], recorded May 22, 1973 by Eubie Blake. -Eubie Blake Introducing Jim Hession [Eubie Blake Music: EBM 6], recorded 1974 by Eubie Blake and Jim Hession. -Sissle and Blake: Early Rare Recordings, Vol.. 2 [Eubie Blake Music: EBM 7], recorded 1919-1931 by Sissle and Blake. -Eubie Blake and his Protégés [Eubie Blake Music: EBM 8], recorded March 18, 1974, by Eubie Blake, Jim Hession, Mike Lipskin, and Terry Waldo -Eubie Blake Song Hits [Eubie Blake Music: EBM 9], recorded 1975 by Eubie and His Girls. Right?

Being such a giant, and with that amazingly long-lived career, the ammount of Eubie Blake´s music available on CD is embarrassingly scarce, IMHO. -We have that Biography CD with piano rolls, "Memories of you" later reissued by Shout! as -And the AIE release "That´s ragtime!", taken from a Stereodditty LP plus a two LP set intended for broadcast and never issued commercially: -And there´s some live Eubie Blake in this Chiaroscuro CD, "Jazz piano masters" (alongside Dill Jones, Teddy Wilson and Claude Hopkins): -"Tricky Fingers" on Quicksilver: And what more is on CD?

¡¡¡ FELIZ CUMPLEAÑOS, CHRIS !!!

...and -I´m never happy anymore was also included in The Per Husby Orchestra - Dedications (1985) [Affinity AFF136; Hot Club HCRCD21]

According to Lord´s discography, -Never been in love was also included in Wyatt Bull Ruther´s "Ruther IV" [Van-Los Music VLM3605] with Gerald Brashear (ts,cga). Frederico Cervantes (p,viola,tp) [aka Freddie Gambrell (p,viola,tp) ], Wyatt Ruther (b), Ron Floreno (d), recorded in North Vancouver, B.C., 1972 -there´s a song called Weekend in several albums (no indication if this is Dameron´s composition): *Walter Wanderley - Kee-Ka-roo (1968) In fact it´s an unissued take from this session *Tamba Trio/Four (1968) [A&M 3013] *Hiroko Kobuku (1992) [JVC VICJ127] *Marc Russo - The window (1993) [JVC 2035-2] *Lenny Andrade and the Fred Hersch Trio - Maiden Voyage (1993) [Chesky JD113] *Gilles Bernard - Mot (1997) [Efendi 005]

Thanks, Claude. That seems reasonable.

Thanks!

Curious to know who´s the pianist on track 7. Any more guesses?

I´m afraid your link doesn´t work, brownie.

A couple of Columbia 2005 reissues: -Woody Shaw - Stepping stones: Live at the Village Vanguard -Miles Davis - Live in Tokyo
