...jj is the man!

...ipod, every man/women for themselves!!! m

..we'll be seeing a slightly different version of this band in Chicago...including Jeremy Pelt and Jimmy Spaulding....cannot wait!!! m~

The bigger issue to me it the quantity of music (I know the quality of the music will be good) on the cd....the Green is maybe 35 minutes, the Monk barely breaks 30 minutes. If you're going to put out the cd...put some damn music on it!!! m~

..also not a record store but I was in the Jazz Kitchen a while back and a nice african american lady asked if Delfeayo Marsalis was "Winston's son"....

...I have to work both days and live 180 miles away.... so I won't be catching either. But will see some of them at Vision Fest in a couple weeks!!! m~

Sorry, I should have make that clear..... I'm Peter Williams, the artistic director at Yoshi's.

Thanks for clearing that up....who are you???

I'd LOVE to know about the status of his TV soundtracks, and if any of these might ever be released. EDIT: Even if they can't be released for contractual reasons, I'd like to know if his family at least has the isolated scores of any of these shows on tape. Thanks, I'll ask him and get back with you. m~

You hit it there, Clem. I can only think of one - Lloyd Wilson - and I can't be sure of his age. I saw him in 1990 and I guess he was in his early thirties then. And even then, I was astounded to come across a young black organist! MG ...Chris Foreman~

I'm going to see Oliver's son play this Saturday night. A great guy, fine musician and fun to talk to. If anyone has a question that they have always wanted to know, let me know and I'll ask. Mark~

....it was Bronson!

Tonight: Garaj Mahal...........Fareed Haque's band....at the Jazz Kitchen in Indy Saturday night: Bobby Broom at the Jazz Factory in Louisville (bus trip with 40 other jazz fans....movies on the bus, wine...goodies....should be fun !!! Sunday evening: Redd Holt at the Jazz Kitchen

Nice photo - very studious. But where's his beard? MG ...I just checked the larger original....it's there...just can't see it on the smaller image.

...here is an image I made of Junior at the Chicago Symphony Center. m~

I'm a big fan of Junior's as well. Great guy and killer player. Here is a photo of Junior and yours truly. I'm the one on the left! m~

....ditto from me....!

....which Wayne Shorter.....

6 copies are listed on amazon's marketplace I may have an extra one as well. m

I think I'll open a "halfway house" in about 23 days...maybe she'll need a place to stay for a while

...probably not going to get Sonny Rollins in for $5.00 per day! I have heard the festival was pretty good some time ago but haven't attended myself. If I lived near by, I'd take a chance for $5.00.

Oh Man, Roger Freed, is that name ever a blast from the past!!! Any old timey Cards fans remember him? Quincy? He became a bit of a cult hero back in the late 70's, with his best year being 1977, when in only 83 at bats he hit 5 Homers, drove in 21 and hit .398. This was back when the Cards hit no home runs outside of Ted Simmons.(He hit 21 that year, 4 more than anyone else!) Can you imagine today having a pitch hitter in the NL hit nearly .400 and only getting him 83 AB's??? He died back in 1996 at the age of 49..... ...saw him play several times. Been a Cards fan since my sister moved there in 1966. Spent most summers of my childhood in Busch staduim...still see about 20 games a year. m~

I've seen Tony live a bunch of times and he puts on a great show....great showman indeed...but a wonderful player as well. Fun to photograph as well.....unlimited facial expressions....crazy~ We discussed doing a photo shoot a month or so ago and he was telling me about his surgery.....a complete success. If you've seen him, you probably noticed he walks with a cane most of the time....he had a pretty serious procedure and he is on the mend...no cane, in great spirits....one nice guy! m~

Have a GREAT Birthday, Larry
