How would you compare it to the one I mentioned above? ubu

Hey, sidewinder, I know you and Bev and a few others start some threads on cool UK-reissues, but how would it be to have one regularly updated? I always try to remember some UK stuff that is recommended, but then I'm often too lazy to search for the various and usually rather short threads, or I simply can't remember the musicians anymore... Would you do a UK jazz reissues thread? I guess I would not be the only one interested! ubu

and let me also add my for the Russeell/Hawkins and the Bailey! ubu

my mom always made me stop playing it. now you, my dear friend, tend to be over the top from time to time, too (not that I'm implying that might right now be the case, no, no, not at all, sir! ) ubu

Happy Birthday, Barak/White Lightning!
king ubu replied to maren's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Have a good one, Barak! And many happy returns! ubu -
Max Roach, Freedom Now Suite The Terry, yes! And all the Minguses, check "Mingus presents Mingus" first! And if you "get" that relatively free stuff, try some of the Cecil Taylor, maybe "The World of", and "New York City R'n'B" first (Buell Neidlinger is co-billed on that one). Clunky, I never managed to get hold of the Thompson disc - you know some place that does not only list it, but indeed has it? ubu

Had a listen to this one onver the weekend - quite good it is, I think, but I have to listen more. Some groovy stuff, some pretty tame, but then Anderson's got a beautiful sound. ubu

Hey, Chaney, the rat's on page 56, right? Me too, finally! Long way to go until we reach page 100 (again)... ubu B)

Might be better that way, no? Your insight might have made the world an even badder place than it is anyway -

European Board Members Meeting
king ubu replied to rockefeller center's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
wow! this is cool - I ask him anything when I meet him on sunday... seriously: I myself have no money to travel right now, and if I had, I ought to do something with my girlfriend, first of all... sad student's life -
it is, you saw through my photoshop mock up. here's the original a brewery? catesta wanted us to go there. dunno. That brings back memories. Remember when ubu accidentally fired a round off and it pierced one of the vats? There was Hefeweizen everywhere! you guys, I do declare, are from now on "drs. h.c. lol", decreed in Poland, January 17th, 1921. ubu B)

You know, Bührle is good, but it's not as hart as Kruppstahl...

You know we all had such problematic childhoods - we're desperately in need of a strong but loving father A figure like Wilhelm Tell, who almost shot his kid... Yup, I guess couw could do that with his two guns!

That's correct. As far as the Herbie Hancock box is concerned: most albums are available in what seems to most ears superior remastering, in the RVG series (as the Monk, but the Herbie box is not that old). I have the Herbie box and will stay with that, however, but just be warned. Same goes for Clifford Brown Complete Blue Note, and Bud Powell Complete Blue Note and Roost.

Ever not check out a thread cuz it's too big???
king ubu replied to BERIGAN's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
For one thing, when you do talk about Free-Jazz, or A/G on other threads, you get a bunch of people who always grip about how "That's not jazz, it's just noise!" I, for one, am just damn tired of that act, so I don't even bother to talk about the kind of jazz I mostly listen to on anything but the "Funny Rat" thread. I think it is great that, ever since this discussion started, the Funny Rat thread has been devoted almost exclusively to Coleman Hawkins. Yup, I wanted to drop a note about that here, too! We've discussed traditional, swinging, blues-drenched jazz there, on and off... -
Godfather I - of course... sad news! Several films were shown in Zurich a few months ago, on the occasion of his birthday. One of the greats! ubu

[insert obvious response here] back in but only for a minute! gotta conclude some further weapon-deals... ever heard of Oerlikon-Bührle? They delivered to the Iraq, to Iran, certainly to Afghanistan and wherever there was need for guns - we swiss folks have always been extremely peaceful ubu :rsmile:

I'll go explore the Hawk thread in a minute. I think BMG has the Hawk / Ellington disc in stock, and I have a few free discs to redeem....hmmmmnnnn.... Hawk / Ellington has now been ordered, along with Sonny Rollins - Newk's Time, both for free. Have fun! The Ellington/Hawkins is a MAGNIFICIENT album! Check the latin tunes first! Tremendous grooves, and great solos by all (Hawk, Hodges, Brown...) ubu ....Ray Nance. Wasn't sure who's on trumpet, and had no time to look it up back then... now I'm home, work finished, but Organissimo still there, thankfully

As long as you don't send them my way, I don't care... I was just on my way to the Post Office...

You can tell it's Jazzmoose by the look on his face. It's as if he's saying, "enough with the pictures already, my fried chicken is getting cold". gotta run now - stop working for today! Hoooray!!
