(RIP) Is Jack Wilson (Atlantic & Blue Note 60s pianist) dead?
randyhersom replied to monkboughtlunch's topic in Re-issues
But while we've brought the subject of Jack Wilson back up, anybody heard The Jazz Organs. There are about three rarities that I haven't had a chance to hear, that's one. -
Trivia: Recorded with Sun Ra and on Blue Note

I did go looking for Charles Davis and found only Eddie Gale - where Charles Davis was one of the Noble Gale Singers. I decided that was unlikely to be the same Charles Davis. Is there a Blue Note with Charles Davis playing (baritone) sax? -

I was surprised not to find any Blue Notes with Bob Cunningham with a quick google. Cunningham and Boykins were the two I thought likely, but not confirmed. -

As I was listening to the first Andrew Hill Mosaic Select this morning, I stumbled on this trivia question. My only answers so far are John Gilmore, Pat Patrick, Don Cherry and Vic Sproles. Enjoy.

Three new old Arabesques appeared, mislabeled as Various Artists, so search by Title. Charles McPherson - Come Play with Me Horace Tapscott - aiee! the Phantom Billy Hart - Oceans of Time -
Wonder if time and new material changes that assessment. I'm quite blown away by Phases of the Night, the latest by this trio.

I believe download links are prohibited on this board. We appreciate you bringing this album to our attention, but wouldn't want the board hosts to get into copyright trouble. I hope you can edit the post and remove the link. -

Do you feel the same way about Eyges with Arthur Blythe, CT? I've always enjoyed those sets, havent heard Byard with Eyges. -
Discovered through the wonders of Google.

Pretty sure the eMusic are legit, label listed as Chronological Classics / Abeille Musique. I believe a Chronological Classics principal alluded to this earlier in this thread. I've been digitizing my CDs anyway, downloads of something that's fifty bucks on Amazon are well worth 4-6 bucks to me. I will download the Mary Low Williams Chronological tracks that I don't already have on Asch Recordings, Zodiac Suite or Jazz in Paris.

Here's what AMG lists, I have heard Live at Macalester College via eMusic. I suspect the list is not complete. 1993 Worlds Gazell 2001 Philadelphia Spirit in New York CIMP 2008 Live at Macalester College Porter 2008 Personal Testimony Porter 2008 Funny Funky Rib Crib Kindred Spirits -
Somebody mentioned abeillemusique.com on another thread and I'm wondering if they really have the back catalog and how much it would be to get US delivery. Trying the Google translator on the site I got ridiculous US dollar shipping charges in parentheses following reasonable euro figures. I did find that three of the Mary Lou Williams classics were "Out of Date" (Indisponible ce jour) - presumably that's not in stock. Yeah, more translating gets me to the conclusion that those three are not gettable - the button is "add to my alerts". I think I'll stop worrying about the shipping and settle for downloads.

Hope they get more complete, I see some of the Mary Lou Williams Chronological Classics that haven't landed yet are going for over $50 on CD. -
As opposed to Elvin??!!

Most of the McCoy Tyner on Telarc - they have only a best-of.

Max and Billy Harper were a fabulous combination. Is there any bad Max? I sure can't think of any.

Further data rot research reveals a statement that the usual point of failure on high capacity external hard drives is the chip set that converts to USB input output, rather than the drive itself. So if your external hard drive fails and either it's out of warranty or the value of the contents is substantially more than the cost of the drive, try to crack open the case and remove the internal hard drive inside. Your data MAY be fine, and you now have an INTERNAL hard drive that contains it.

I wanted to say more about Harrison but wasn't finding the words, not being very wordy to begin with. But I read another thread on Bill Withers mentioning his first three albums and it struck me that the personalities were very similar - plainspoken, soulful and down to earth in the extreme. Make no mistake, his main interest was in jazz and he had relatively little involvement in popular music, but when I ask myself how to let another music fan what Harrison was like, well this fits. Yes Indeedy.

The search function when you run Squeeze Center from your computer is nice. I also noticed that pieces of MySQL are loaded with it, and found a 150mb database file. Wonder how I might be able to query it?

I'm telling you, the very best house music (and it's waaaaaaay underground, btw) is so damn chock full of information as to be the only true (ok, "truest") "music of now" that I've heard. But it ain't about "songs" nearly as much as it is about sound, texture, and peacefully and prosperously populating multiple layers of a sonic landscape. I believe you and anticipated such a post when I started the thread... I definitely need to check more of said music out. Music (in general, as a response to the circumstances around it) doesn't die; people do. Were you planning to fork over any names, Mr. Sangrey??? Cash's statement didn't strike me as particularly egotistical or judgemental. I agree with the basics, and have no problem if a suburbanite making music for suburbanites likes to flavor it with a little Brooks, Haggard or Frizell. No need for felony convictions or cotton picking scars.

The Squeezebox boom arrived, and I looked in the room where the DSL comes in to find that my router wasn't wireless. Running a cable between rooms was a huge hassle that I don't want to endure again, so I bought a Wireless G router and had my stepson replace the wired one. When I got the WPA password from him, I fired up the Squeezebox. The software asked for the name of THE music files directory. I have dozens spread over multiple drives. I picked the largest and it took a couple hours to digest the huge directory and was playing tunes fairly quickly after that. Then I got creative and changed to my second largest directory, selecting "scan for new and changed files" thinking it would keep my old files and add to them. Abdullah Ibrahim promptly stopped playing and my first directory's music could not be selected after that. So it makes sense to combine your directories before installing Squeezebox, since you'll end up doing it anyway. Also, you may want to reboot after a very large rescan, as things got very slow when I combined and rescanned. After a reboot, the slows were gone. I like it, but it may not be better than Windows Media Player just yet. Fewer lags, but not yet as flexible. At work, we've had over 50% failure rate within two years on the new 500GB-1TB external drives. So the data rot discussion above needs considering. I'm planning to copy my master directory to another external hard drive and take it to work.
