Let's just say I have duplictes. I was actually going to declare a private buying moratorium[until the next vinyl only show in edison,nj at the end of the month. anybody wants to go?]; pile is getting out of control. Looks like I'm doing pretty good at the poles so far. One more reason to put all the s..t together and pick a goodie. [man, writing in a thread with my name on it feels kinda weird. like i got an award for the best drawing of a brown pelican, state bird of louisiana. and i don't even know how to draw.]

A message from the head nurse

AMG lists it as being ...extracted from some of last Blue Note sessions of the 1960s before Byrd's ventures into soul fusion territory. I don't think this is a compilation. A good Rare Groove to have or "skip that one" ?

Saw this one today. Band does a 20-minute version of the Sonnymoon for Two. That's kind of intriguing. Sound is live mono. A worthy pick-up?

Wow, you guys are crazy! But I accept this nomination and promise to serve the people of this great forum with natural wisdom, supported by my incredible good looks. My first order of business is - From now on the official language of Organissimo will be Swedish. All the members, except for the Masters of the Groove will have to change their underwear every 30 minutes. Masters of the Groove will have specially trained nurses assigned for that. More to come.

Sun Ra / The Night Of The Purple Moon

Damn straight. It deserves the "State of the Tenor" treatment or what? Someone[bN] should record their next tenure for a multi-cd set. Plus the bonus dvd.

Bolcom, William & Albright, William / New Music For Organ just kidding Green, Grant / Street Of Dreams Holmes, Richard "Groove" & Ammons, Gene / Groovin' With Jug Quebec, Ike / It Might As Well Be Spring Roach, Freddie / Brown Sugar Smith, Jimmy / Six Views Of The Blues

Will be in Beentown next weekend, was wondering if the locals know of any good gigs on Fri & Sat nights?

This has prompted me to revisit my [small] Criss collection. The more I listen to Sonny's Dream, the less it reminds me of his other records. It's an outstanding cd, albeit a short one. With the 2 alternates it comes up to 45 minuts. As far as the alternates themselves, the main reason to hear the alt. of Sonny's Dream is for McKibbon's bass, which has way more "meat" on it than the LP take. Wish the whole cd had more low end on it. But that's how most of these early 90s OJC's sound.

My best wishes and hope of complete recovery for your mother, Berigan! We're all anxious for her to recover. Tell her that.

I think the US set has one more cd in it.

there's your guy

And here I am, working on getting the pre-Liberty Mono.

That certainly looks like a bit of good news. I'm susrprised noone here has commented yet. UMG owns Motown and Verve/Impulse![among many other, much bigger things] . I like the sound of $13 and under very much better than $16-$18. Imagine $10-priced brand new cds any day of the week.

Your Jazz Scene suggestion is duly noted. However, I am interested in Pictorial History because looks like it concentrates on the pre-bop jazz scene in photos and other relevant documents. If that is the case I will buy it.

See it on amazon and ebay from time to time. Are the newer editions somehow improved upon the older ones?

I will not pay for the privilege of reading Thom Jurek's record reviews. Sorry.

A buddy of mine had a gig with Florida Phil. a couple of years ago. He played behind this guy once and said it was extremely cheesy[i believe him!]. He got paid.

It was a perfect night for jazz - cold, rainy and empty . Only taxis and garbage trucks were hauling their filthy cargo along 7th Avenue. The belly of the Vanguard was comfortably filled [did I just write that?! ]. They started at 11pm precisely.

Late, you pikced a winner! I'm in love with this album now. Thanks! Beautiful music. Wow!

MLF are playing at the Vanguard all of this week! 2nd week of the two-week long tenure.

are you a father yet, or what?
