According to the first paragraph in the brief reports of the Evaluation Committee made public yesterday, Paris and London candidatures are of "a very high quality", while Madrid´s is of "high quality". Olympic Games are further! I´ll say it again, brownie: Go Paris!!!

I´d say "none of my friends are SICKLY in jazz"

I totally agree, Chuck. Wish he had recorded much more piano solo. Winning a wonderful bandleader, we lost a great solo pianist.

While doing a small research on discs by non-Spanish jazz musicians recorded on Madrid, I discovered these 1979 recordings by Bill Evans´ trio with Marc Johnson and Joe LaBarbera at the now defunct Balboa Jazz Club, that I had not previously heard about: * Bill Evans Trio Live at Balboa Jazz Club, Vol. 1-5 [ivory (Portugal)] ILP 3000/01/02/03/04 To my knowledge, only part of that LP material (volumes 1, 2 and 3, from December 12, 1979) has been reissued on CD as: * Bill Evans Trio Live at Balboa Jazz Club, Vol. 1-2 [Jazz Lab (Swt)] JLCD 4/5 How good is this stuff? Is it available anywhere? Thanks in advance, Agustín

Current auction for this set, going for $256.00: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...4733445363&rd=1 (no connection with seller, of course)

I am ignoring the ignore function.

I mentioned this recent release in the Storyville thread, but I thought it´d be worth opening a new thread on it. Anyone has already spinned this one?
