Hey is that in a styrofoam cup.

Reading the "What Classical Music Are You Playing/Practicing" thread, Mr. Weiss introduced me to the BIS website where I found. THIS.. Juhani Nuorvala Three Impromptus for clarinet and kantele (1995) 1. I. Quite slowly and freely 7'54 2. II. Rock tempo 3'34 3. III. Slowly; gently 3'46 Where can I find other music like these Three Impromptus? I am most drawn to the instrumentation and all the wide open spaces in the compositions. Thanks in advance, Bill

Dolphy ~ Conversations. I had Iron Man for quite a while and just didn't listen to it all that often. I figured since these were both Alan Douglas sides they would be in the same vein. I was happy to be wrong as Conversations just blew me away, in particular his work on the bass clarinet.

Now how do you know it was a beer bottle, it could have been a hot day and someone was enjoying an ice cold soda-pop.

Freezing fog all morning long and everything is frosted in white, very beautiful here.

Mr. Chewy Chew Chew, Other than having been recorded on the Left Coast are there any other factors that limit your definition of "West Coast Jazz"? What possible purpose could having such a definition serve? Sincerely curious, nothing more. Spinning "Hoagy sings Carmichael with The Pacific Jazzmen" as I type. Bill

Thanks for that one, always good to see a little John & John.

Is it kosher to play the Koto or Harp while wearing Lederhosen or only the Zither?

Googled my way here and have been consistently amazed at the wealth of information. My music collection has probably doubled since I started spending time here. I'm not sure where I wold have learned about so much of this beautiful music if it were not for this place. Thanks, Bill

Was the "TRUE STEREO" pressing done at a later date? Maybe a month later. Bob couldn't afford to press both at the same time. Thanks.

"The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale." Hmmmm.

There are many records that fit into this category for me, but that is mostly due to my own ignorance. I had picked up a handful of Lionel Hampton lps and they were quickly sent to the basement so my expectations were very low until I checked out The Lionel Hampton Quintet, which was originally a Clef side I believe. This lp is pure joy pressed into 12” of vinyl. One whole side of the record is Lionel, Buddy Rich, Oscar Peterson, Ray Brown and Buddy De Franco just going to town on Flying Home. I played this for a friend who prefers his jazz a little more on the free side of things and his comment was, “They just sound like they are having fun, don’t they.” Most of the time this happens when I have formed an opinion with out really having listened to, or being completely ignorant of, a particular persons work. Seeing Anita O’Day in the film ~ Jazz On A Summer’s Day was another one of those moments.
