Tell them to have a look at any TOP RANK 45. A Google picture search for Top Rank Record Label will yield about a million examples. Oh yes, I forgot. But most American's wouldn't know who J A Rank was. MG

J Arthur Rank on gong is nicest, I think. Don't know if Americans could get it, though. MG

What ARE you doing when you post pics? Those two are invisible, too. MG

I bet they're good, if they're so heavily censored MG

Bob Monkhouse Lester Flatt Charlotte Church

Yes, that's a thought - but I only have a Cuban quartet, and they don't spell it right - Cuarteto Patria. MG

Q isn't a letter used much, if at all, in West Africa, so it's just Ike Quebec and Luisito Qunitero for me. MG

Cheers (*clink*) - a very nice record indeed! NP: Recorded in '61, w/ G.Green, T. Flanagan, P. Chambers, and Art Taylor This is one record where I find the CD sounds much better than the DMM LP. Great stuff too. Oh - I love the album, but I haven't heard it on CD. Which edition are you talking about? MG

Well, the only musician in the whole BFT I've EVER heard before - and like quite a bit, actually - is Carmell Jones - oh and the rhythm section behind him. So this has been really exploratory for me and at least I know why I haven't explored this area much. Many thanks. MG

First day for a month it hasn't rained here. The trick-or-treaters were out in force. MG

In fairness, I think others commanded the same sort of love and respect in the black community: Arthur Prysock is another or whom people were turning out and filling halls up to soon before his death in 1997. MG

This one, ordered at the same time and the same Amazon seller as the earlier one, turned up today. Edgar Hayes - 1938-1948 - Classics Hayes ought to be a LOT better known, MG

I bet NO ONE votes for Illinois Jacquet's 'Blues part 2) or ANYTHING by Gene Ammons. Those ultra-big saxes are pretty neat, so long as you don't have to go to a gig with them. MG

Must have been a boring day at the coalface MG
