Red Mitchell.

Chivas. Always gdod.

I would love to see a good reissue of the Art Hodes Blue Notes! Lon's got it. An RVG would probably be a real improvement, judging from the RVG Monk things.

Haven't heard it. but I bet it's good for laughs. One of the Doo Wop oldies, I think it was "Tonight, Tonight" by the Mello-Kings was a riot. The bass player hit very few right notes. AND it was a I-VI-II-V prgression. I think it was eventually cleaned up or rerecorded for Oldies radio.

Jelly Roll's Jazz by the Lawson-Haggart Jazz Band on the 10" Decca. Amazingly good sound. Vinyl DOES sound better !

Intimadade by Tania Maria. I heard one track on WBGO, Agua De Beber, which is a Jobim standard, and decided to buy the cd. Turned out to be KILLER ! Eddie Gomez makes a strong contribution to this, BTW.

When I'm home my computer is on, so from time to time I take a look. I'd guess I'm in the 10-15 category.

Back from the gig and a little taste tonight of Grey Goose.

Not to divert attention away from Bud, but I saw Bucky play about a week ago. He's 86 and sounds as great as ever !

Yes. They were released on Classics.

Big props for Bud, he 's one of my favorites. I've got lots of his recordings under his own name and also with the Condon mob. He always sounds interesting to me. Great harmonic sense and great groove too.

Hope you get the job to do the next Condon set! Now let me tell you about my plans for when I'm elected president !

Wait 'til you hear the newly discovered live recordings of Wild Bill Davison sitting in with Trane at the Five Spot. Wild Bill doing OM is not to be missed !

The closest thing to the CBS Mosaic that's on the Mob set is the George Wettling session. It might as well be regarded as a Condon session released under George's name. Actually, were I producing these sets, the Wettling session would have been in the CBS set, not the mob set.

Definitely. The Condon CBS set has some of the best recordings of "that" music ever made, stellar sidemen such as Wild Bill Davison, Billy Butterfield, Ed Hall, Pee Wee, Cutty Cutshall, etc etc. A LOT OF GREAT MUSIC! It would be my first choice.

Yeah. I'll be going for this too. His recent cd on this label, Cityscape, was a gas !

LOOK !! A Shouting match !

WKCR plays this from time to time. As I recall, they do a very fast Tiger Rag. I always enjoy it - Bird burns it up.

That's tells you what you need to know.

Pretty much sums it up.

Pretty Good !

Nah...Jack is Jack. I think Romano mentioned somtehing about China right before Jack started in on him. That tipped his hand. How would anybody know about that if they weren't involved?

..........So DOCTOR ROMANO is Jack's brother !!????!

Me too. What's interesting is to look at the member no. and date joined. I probably joined about 10 seconds earlier than Conn. As I remember most of us from the bn board joined the same day or maybe the day after.
