  1. Ayler - Holy Ghost The final discs with the Saint-Vence material and the fascinating interviews... and the airport tape - wonder what had happened there? anyone knows? And what about that "Ed Sullivan" gig they act like it was scheduled to take place the next day? And wtf is Mr. Heidecker? Heineken? Wow, never seen this one. Gonna have to keep a look out for it. There's a second one that seems to pop up even less often... between the two of them you get what Sony failed to bring forth again in 2004 for the Basie centennial.
  2. That article was already mentioned in the thread about Jack Nimmitz' ABC session - Zieff was in touch with some folks back then, roughly same time frame (2007/08) (fine disc that one, btw!)
  3. the stereo version of "Dave Digs Disney" is of course part of the Legacy Edition of that album (which came out last year)
  4. Oh well, Pepl/Pirchner's was certainly not music that everyone would immediately be hooked on! The radio broadcast of Griffin's cuts off "Soft and Furry" alas. And yes, "Jean-Marie" by pianist Mathews is indeed a waltz, as far as I remember.
  5. guitar-vibes - Pepl-Pirchner? They were great! (partial?) Griffin setlist - this amounts to a 74min radio broadcast: Autumn Leaves Jean-Marie (Mathews) Sophisticated Lady Fifty-Six Soft and Furry line-up was: Johnny Griffin (ts), Ronnie Mathews (p), Ray Drummond (b), Kenny Washington (d)
  6. No, Hutcherson was booked to replace Bags in an all stars tour (w/Hank Jones, Kenny Burrell, Ray Brown and Mickey Roker) and was visibly bored and uninterested in what the others were playing (Jones and Burrell were great though). But back to Tyner... saw him last year in quartet w/Bartz - and both of them were great!
  7. Ah well, I remember having seen Hutcherson and he sucked. That sucks, too...
  8. I still need to find that Spotlite LP pictured above... but in the meantime, I got the Jasmine CD containing the full two 1963 Chicago broadcsts: Coleman Hawkins Live from the London House Chicago, Ill (Jasmine JASMCD 2521) Spinning it right now and Hawk is in fine shape!
  9. Happy Birthday, Tom! :party:
  10. well, Maggie could return...
  11. See post #339 for contents! Or here, larger and straight from the source: Put in pre-orders for all of them!
  12. I'm holding out for a total collapse of the Euro. Ha... just consider the pound may join in on the downward slope
  13. first sighting of the next batch on amazon: http://www.amazon.fr/Don-pullen-albums-originaux-remasterises/dp/B0065HDMA2/ http://www.amazon.fr/Mal-waldron-quintets-albums-originaux/dp/B0065HDLJE/ http://www.amazon.fr/Jimmy-giuffre-albums-originaux-remasterises/dp/B0065HDLYO/ http://www.amazon.fr/Albums-Originaux-World-Saxophone-Quartet/dp/B006BHP30S/ prices even seem a bit lower than usual...
  14. Got to check my Murray set, too - as I've had half of it before, I was in no hurry to listen yet... thanks!

    Thanks - forgot to look there... DUH!
  16. "Hot Buttered Noodling"? That goes straight to the favorite album titles list, along with "Never Pat a Burning Dog" (as if we didn't know THAT!)
  17. Got the Stuff Smith (glorious!) in time... also the two wonderful VeeJays!
  18. I'd rather see the Basie Roulette Studio or the Commodores make such a zombie reappearance Fabulous set, of course, the Bix/Tram/Tea - carpe diem!
  19. The weird Select? It's a nice gesture and I might buy it in the end, but it's really not necessary... there'd have been better groups of work in Lucky's discography to present in a Mosaic box! The news on the Hawkins is great, of course! The more I hear and read about it, the more I want it! Wasn't entirely sure in the beginning, but the more additional tracks they find, the more exciting it gets!
  20. Happy Birthday! :party:
  21. Got mine yesterday and just did a quick comparison of the tracks in question - all seems okay now!

    Anyone has a rough guess about the date of the three tracks?
  23. That sounds very cool, Allen! Still got to catch up with your last one, though
  24. indeed , my LP edition sounds better slowed down to about 30 rpm, I find it hard to tell when I've adjusted the speed to the correct point !!! I think it's somewhere about a semitone sharp, but I'm not sure, would have to check... couldn't tell you in RPMs, but maybe could find out how to fix WAV files correctly if I can locate my files...
  25. The Amsterdam set is out on Lonehill - but as all commercially available versions, it runs at wrong speed (considerably fast) and that ruins it quite a bit (Klook sounds horrible mostly!)
