I have that one on cd-r[if anyone wantsa to sell their Paul Motain -TRIBUTE TO BILL EVANS cd, please email me]. Just can't find the real thing. Great album! Frisell is also very imaginagtive and very good on Ron Miles' Woman's Day and on Wheeler-Konitz-Holland-Frisell -- Angel Song, which sometimes gets shunned for being too much of an impressionistic album. I like it. Great topic. I'll pick up a couple of the recommended Frisells.

Horace Silver participated on over 50 Blue Note recordings, as a leader and a sideman. If there ever was a pianist who defined the Blue Note sound, it was him.

Jamal's Argo Lps are quite plentiful and if one applies oneself one can find many pristine ones for ones pleasure.

Got a letter in the mail - 4 100p. issues and accompanying cds - $40 per year. A good read? www.jazzimprov.com

Jerome K. Jerome - THREE MEN IN A BOAT[to say nothing of a dog].

Distasteful it is. He should be on a C-Note.

Scott Yanow is way off-base with his 2-star AMG review. This is one of the best Lou Donaldson's soul recordings, imo. And a rare documented live gig that gives an idea what those dates *really* were about.

I guess I'm getting old enough to spend a whole day sleeping under a tent. Wife says I snore though. What do you think, a good way to spend a couple of Sundays?

Got 3 out of 4 this Sunday at a record fair. On Honey Dew. They look like semi-boots. With George Coleman, Wilbur Little and Hannibal Peterson on a few tracks[same combo as on Enja's 1968 live cd]. Looks like these are from an early 70s performance at the Vanguard. Haven't played 'em yet.

PIANO PORTRAITS is his strongest Roulette Lp, imo. Don't know if it's on cd or not, but the material and playing are first rate[and beyond]. Blues For Left Hand Only is a virtuoso piece, if there ever was one.

Would you know which issue it would be in? If I'd gotten a hold of it, I'd scan and paste it up on the net.

Except for the blurbs in the liner notes? What about Blindfold Tests, has he ever taken one?

I wish Lee recorded more...period. Too bad his life ended so quick. One of the best trumpeters this music ever had. Ever.

That's enough for me, buddy.

Now that you've repented, go and pick up any of his Contemporary Records records. BTW, you are really white.

You should be.

Do you have any info on this 1976[?] Japanese Philips record?

70 y.o.

All cds are mastered at 88.2 kHz sampling rate.

Talented Boston-based pianist and teacher was hit by a truck when he was changing a tire on his car. www.davidazarian.com

Will this be released Stateside as well?

Sergeant Egorov and Meliton Kantaria[a Georgian, obviously] did it. Alexei Kovalev scored 2 nice goals the other night. Rangers are doomed.

Hey, Red Menace, do you know the names of soldiers that hoisted the red flag on the Reichstag? Let's see some WWII buff spirit.
