  1. Nearly everyone was in profile, so I have to confess I couldn't immediately tell. Thanks!
  2. Saw a good pic of Horace Silver with what could have easily been a Rooster or Ernst tie, with a sport coat on -- on the cable jazz music channel when I was down in the gym in our apartment building (the place was empty early on a Saturday evening, so I got it off a dance-hits channel). If I had to guess, I'd say the pic was from about 1959 or so. Horace was facing right, about a 3/4ths ("3 quarters") shot, if I remember correctly, and the tie had horizontal stripes. Only caught the image for maybe 10 seconds. Saw the screen in the mirror actually, and then looked back -- so I could easily be wrong about which way he was facing. Could have been this pic (which I can't seem to link to, to display here)... https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/photo-of-horace-silver-photo-by-michael-ochs-archives-getty-news-photo/74294916?esource=SEO_GIS_CDN_Redirect#photo-of-horace-silver-photo-by-michael-ochs-archivesgetty-images-picture-id74294916
  3. Thanks! I see he also seems to have that Carmell Jones Quartet "Previously Unreleased Los Angeles Session" date on FreshSound at a not especially painful price -- which I've also been meaning to get for a while now.
  4. Haven't had any problems in close to a week, not on mobile (both over air, and through wifi at home), nor at work on my work-PC. But last week was hit-n-miss for a number of days there. FWIW.
  5. I still haven't picked this up yet - mistakenly thought it was on a label that was a little less obscure than it apparently is. What's my best/cheapest/reliable source on a copy these days? Many thanks!
  6. So if this ever surfaces, is this the only unreleased live Tyrone Washington that's known to exist? Kinda crazy that the BBC, of all things (and recorded in the UK no less) -- might be the only(?) source of some previously unreleased live Tyrone.
  7. Just stumbled on this on YouTube, looking for something else. Maybe not all that 'crazy' - but I'm not sure I've ever heard any free-leaning Miles Davis covers, let alone actually recorded before 1970. Versions of "So What" and "Milestones" -- too interesting not to share...
  8. I've genuinely curious about your exceptions. (I have to admit there's very little solo guitar that I've listened to over the years, so I'm not looking to to challenge anyone's suggestions in this thread.)
  9. Probably should have been called "I Vaguely Remember Charlie Parker".
  10. In the fine print, at the link: • The Library of Congress may or may not own a copy of a particular film or video. So maybe yes, but maybe no.
  11. Link has the line-up; is this reliable? OMG! - Made-for-TV series. - Feature film (over 60 minutes). - 1. "Senor blues", "Nutville", "Pretty eyes", "Song for my father" by Horace Silver. 2. "Senor blues", "Cape Verdean blues", "Filthy McNasty" by Horace Silver; "Aurelia blue" by Larry Ridley. (Songs) - Introduced by Humphrey Lyttelton:- Woody Shaw, trumpet; Tyrone Washington, sax; Horace Silver, piano; Larry Ridley, acoustic double bass; Roger Humphries, drums. (Personnel on Camera) - Both programmes recorded on 11th October 1966 at the Chelsea College of Science and Technology, London. Tyrone and Woody, on video, for a whole hour-long program??!!!
  12. Here's one of the best tracks from the album. https://www.discogs.com/ja/Jimmy-Ponder-Live-At-The-Other-End/release/8636775
  13. There's a Jimmy Ponder live date, circa 1980 I want to say. Will have to look it up, but it's fantastic. Legit release, just came out in the last 15 years or so, CD only. Highest recommendation.
  14. I'm having issues on mobile (iPhone 5) again today too, and my bookmark goes to the unread content page too. I'm posting this through my laptop at work (work's network), with not issues. And I just rebooted my phone, and the O forum just came up totally fine -- after having the malicious(?) redirects moments before (before I rebooted). No issues on mobile this morning though, all the way through 10am EST (not sure I was ever on after that, until just now).
  15. Same redirect issues on my iPhone, much of the afternoon. Just rebooted it, which is the only reason I seem to have gotten through to the site now. Never tried from my PC at work. But yeah, same issues here (on an old IPhone 5).
  16. Never on CD, far as I know. But I think there may have been a legit digital-download version (maybe even with one bonus alternate take/track?). But I don't do downloads, so I never persued it. Seems like I saw it on Amazon for download even, maybe. Would buy a copy on CD, for sure!
  17. How did this particular set sell out so quickly (relatively speaking) - ? Seems like it was out and gone in a fairly few short years (forgotten the details - maybe it was longer than I'm remembering). It seemed like the kind of set that would be around a while, but maybe sales were better than I was imagining?
  18. Can highly recommend this: Schuller ,Ed – Mu-Point (Tutu) Dewey Redman $12
  19. As long as Spotify give you access to a particular album in perpetuity (well, as long as you keep paying your bills). While any of my CD's could get scratched or go belly-up at some point in the next 20+ years -- I don't think the odds are necessarily a whole lot better that Spotify will provide continuous access to any number of relatively obscure recordings that I hold rather dear, over that same time-period. I mean, Spotify COULD easily provide continuous access to any number of things for a damn long time -- but I'm still skeptical that everything you can listen to today will always be available 10, 20, or 30 years from now.
  20. How expensive? (On mobile, will try and check later, or this weekend.)
  21. Been a fair while since I gave - so I'm good for $100. And/or... I've been meaning to list a few Mosaics for sale here too -- with 100% of the proceeds going to the continued upkeep of the board. "100%" as in the "payment" can go *directly* to Jim (no need for me to be a middle man).
  22. I'm pretty sure(?) I saw him once, or maybe even twice - in Kansas City - with Bobby Watson, as best I'm remembering. Heck of a good player, as I'm recalling, and I'm sure I had his first leader-date on CD at some point or another. RIP.
  23. I wish there were five prolific jazz alto-clarinetists. Joe Lovano is the only player I can think of off the top of my head who's doubled specifically on alto more than a handful of times - though I'd love to be made aware of any others.
