I saw you were posting yesterday a while after I sent my PM, so I was wondering! Let me get a new haircut first, willya

Hm, seems to be working now. 7/4 sent me a PM and I was able to answer, or so it seems!

I tried to write a few PMs during the last four hours or so, and none would be sent. I get an error message that the page I was trying to retrieve was unreachable. At least I can use the "save (send later)"-function. Anyone else has this problem? In case you got your PMs, even though they are not among my sent items (yes, I did put a hook in the respective field), speak up, couw, JohnS, Niko!

Oh, I mis-read your post, sorry! I guess the McKusick is on the endangered list, I ought to get it as long as it's still around!

It's part of the sale (although not for me moronic yurpeen): http://concordmusicgroup.com/artists/album/?id=2816

Thanks! I tried twice to reply to your PM but I got two error messages... sorry if it went through twice!

And if us yurpeens are allowed to post here about zweitausendeins sale finds, despite the merikin jazz police closely watching, here's one that I enjoy a lot:

in case you think there's no european jazz or music that's genuine, you're about as narrow-minded as the above post is... just because you don't know doesn't mean it's not there... (i'm not french, btw)

Aren't some of these out on Savoy again?

It's a Jazzdeau, right! Alas I was born too late to ever see one, but it's been one of my favourite animals ever since I remember... I had that little book, "Dilbert and the Dodo" by Kate Robinson and James Hart... loved it - probably still have it somewhere, torn into pieces...

Can you provide more info, please? What tunes from what date? And why would they have been omitted from the set?

All (? most?) of that was reissued by 32jazz - great discs, most of them! Then some cheapo UK label did a 2CD set with the four full albums of which 32jazz did the compilation of that title. Dig the ugly covers!

something is fishy here, 's like you are looking for an alibi. So to be on the safe side, let's blame it all on catesta for a change... That's the standard procedure anyway, and I see no reason to change that...

Congrats, Ronald! I must have missed this thread when it was up and I guess there's no need for help by now! The only thing I might have is a setlist for the Osby/New Connexion concert from Schaffhausen, but I do remember I wasn't able to match the names with the actual music (I have four tracks and five titles or something, but the radio chaps said it was the complete concert, so most likely one track is a medley, but since these are all unknown tunes to me, I can't really tell...)

'Lonely Star' - It's the third of the disks with Chet Baker's Prestige material with Kirk Lightsey and George Coleman. Very nice they are too - the others are 'Stairway To The Stars' and 'On A Misty Night'. Ah, I see... ok ones, yes - but I have the five digipack 20bit discs of these sessions... Oh, would someone order the "This is Criss" for me and send it my way? I missed that one

What's the Lonely or Loney Star and what trio does is complete? Pardon my ignorance...

Great thread, thanks Lazaro for sharing these remembrances! Chuck, part of this tape is circulating (it was on radio, back then, I assume) - if you're talking of Chicago Jazz Festival 1986. Here's the line-up going with it: Tom Harrell - trumpet Don Sickler - trumpet Eddie Bert - trombone Steve Lacy - soprano sax Phil Woods - alto sax Charlie Rouse - tenor sax Howard Johnson - baritone sax, bass clarinet Barry Harris - piano Cecil McBee - bass Ben Riley - drums Yes I'm sure broadcast tapes are floating around. Barry Harris was NOT on piano. Mal was. In 1982 Mal and Steve performed as a duo at the same festival. It was broadcast too. Then Mal also did the quartet part (with Rouse, McBee & Riley)? Will have to sit down and listen... The idea was resurrected with a very similar line-up in 2000, btw: Monk Tentet All Stars New Morning, Paris (FR) - April 4, 2000 Don Sickler - trumpet Jack Walrath - trumpet Eddie Bert - trombone Steve Lacy - soprano sax Phil Woods - alto sax, clarinet Johnny Griffin - tenor sax Ronnie Cuber - baritone sax Ronnie Matthews - piano David Williams - bass Ben Riley - drums

Hey, once you'll play it and hear all the wonderful music, there's no way you'll regret!

Why that? I know exactly where in which shelf they stand... (although I have no idea how long it will take until I'll have played them all through...)

I had been planning a concert like this while Monk was alive and after his death I could not continue. A couple years later Art Lange revived the idea and carried it off supurbly. Don Sickler, Tom Harrell, Cecil McBee and Eddie Bert were in the band too. I have a tape of the gig. They played Epistrophy, Bye-Ya, I Mean You, Evidence, Light Blue, Oska T and Four In One.

Please send the amount you're willing to pay for the Schopenhauer (I skipped it twice already...) my way! Send PM for paypal details of postal address in case you prefer to send cash. Will help me fund the Mingus and pay off the debt on my card from the last huuuuge OJC order...

So finally there it is! Great! Order sent in, thanks a lot, tjobbe!

The Day After It's on Howard McGhee's Sharp Edge date . Success again - thanks a lot, Chas. I will tell the dime-a-dozen clientele.

Hope you had a good one! Happy birthday!

Happy birthday, Chris!
