SMB1968

Bluefield Daily Telegraph Feb. 17, 1925

Thanks for the info gents. In the novel (pub 1959) a Bird-obsessed junkie piano player gets caught up a sweep for a murderer & his alibi boils down to him claiming he wasn't involved because he spent the night listening to the new Charles Mills record over and over again, just made me a bit curious.

Anyone know anything (or even better, able to recommend anything) by Charles Mills? I ran across reference to him in a '50s pulp paperback called Epitaph for a Tramp (by David Markson before he became a "serious" novelist). Seems Mills was something of a third streamer & buddies w/ Freddy Redd. I have Lateef's The Centaur and The Phoenix w/ Mills' tunes, but curious about other stuff. Gracias. Scott

George Russell Sextet -- Trip to Prillaguri

It was pretty good, but a bit heavy on speculation to move the narrative along. Unavoidable at times given the time frame, but still felt a bit excessive.

Track 5: Vandermark ?

No idea on most of this, but I'm pretty sure Track 4 is Angles 9.

Never heard the original LP, so don't know if it is better or not, but the bass on the reissue is wonky (the entire mix sounds kind of off).

Good to know. Thanks.

His duo w/ Karl Berger on Leo from earlier this year was quite good.
