  1. OK, so now all I need is Eric Dolphy's song Triple Mix. Does anyone have that? It was on an album called Naima which has some of the last recordings from 6/11/64 on it and the label is Jazzway (not West Wind who put out possibly the same cd without this track). Thanks!
  2. GUY WINS!!! I was looking for Circle In The Round & hip problems. By the way, I also feel the same about He Loved Him Madly, but noticed that Chambers does not like it (too long). Another reason I feel listening habits have changed is the playing time of CDs. I'm reminded of reading about Joe Strummer of The Clash talking about the 3 record Sandanista saying he hoped that people would listen to it differently; rather than from start to finish, bounce around or a side at a time. Clearly programming a CD or random play does just that. I think it's helped albums like Sandanista & Miles electric recordings.
  3. I think the point has been made; the cameraderie. That's what I thought too.
  4. Just want to sat JSngry, close on both extra credit questions, but not quite. And if my answers aren't right, then what are my answers to these questions?
  5. In looking through the threads, nothing really peaks my interest enough to respond on AAJ. Here it's completely different. I think I respond to the background colors more here!
  6. Gary, sent you a PM, let me know if you got it.
  7. This is about my 3rd or 84th post about this since getting the Jack Johnson box, which I'd never heard before then. So I re-read Chambers Milestones chapters that dealt with 1969-75 & he ends the chapter about 1972-75 with this (and this was 1985 this question was posed): The real questions are so hard that they remain unanswered to this day. Was Davis's direction interesting? And was it productive? Even with a decade of hindsight, those questions have no clear answers. Perhaps it is still too soon to try to answer them. Perhaps Davos was, as Dizzy Gillespie said, "hooked so far out in front" that ten years is too short for a perspective. Even though I was a teenager in 1985 and not listening to Davis, I would agree with that statement. But after the 90's and electronica, raves, etc. coming to a more mass market, and now having heard this after all that, it doesn't seem as far out as it, I'm sure, did back then. I think he was pushing people to listen to music differently. Even possibly as background music (dense as it is & no, I'm not talking musak here), which is why I mention electronica. To me, background music doesn't have to be quiet & uncomplicated, it's the same music I listen to as foreground music. Anywho, here's my question to youse guys: Do you think that enough time has passed for Davis's electric years to be put in a proper perspective; in regard to Davis's own discography and music in general? (This question should count as course credit somewhere) Extra credit question: Name the song in Davis's discography that is credited with starting this whole era. Extra extra credit question: What personal event is credited with ending this era? Good luck!
  8. Gary, how did you get onto the Miles Ahead web site. For some reason I can't find it at all anymore. I was on it maybe a week ago and now any search I do, it doesn't turn up.
  9. In reference to Claude (just Claude); in looking through the Chambers book, Milestones; it says about Molester that these have only shown up on a single (as far as known in 1985), and as for Big Fun/Holly-wood, it says nothing else. To the other Claude: could you give a track listing of Isle of Wight? To Bertrand: Idon't think these will be on any box set as Columbia isn't doing anymore past Jack Johnson, year-wise. That's why I'm looking, I haven't seen them on any reissue. Thanks all!
  10. Does anyone have the following songs (they were both released only as singles in the mid-70's): 1. Molester Part 1/Molester Part 2 (1973 or 74) 2. Big Fun/Holly-wood (1974 or 75, Big Fun not on album of the same name) Also looking for 1 Eric Dolphy song called Triple Mix. Thanks.
  11. Do you ever talk with him?
  12. Morganized-that would be 24-BUTT & yes it would be protectively sealed. I'd be the first scratch & sniff cd! As it spins round real fast, it fills the room with the scent of...well, you know. How long before this product becomes a reality? I OWN THE COPYRIGHT YOU WEASELS!!!! DrJ-do you think his farts sound like his voice: scratchy & quiet? Maybe he hurt that the same day he ruined his voice. I don't know about anyone else, but I never expected a topic to turn into this.
  13. If I remember the Historic Concert was with Cecil Taylor? I can't get into him which is why it's not on the list. Members Don't Get Weary I'll have to go back & listen to the Amazon clips again, but it didn't grab me. I should've mentioned I'm looking post Clifford Brown.
  14. Were the other 249 all the other electric live Miles releases?
  15. So I have Freedom Now & Percussion Bitter Sweet and I've listened to clips of songs on Amazon. Actually some I haven't heard, but they sounded interesting just from their discriptions. Let me know what cha think. 1. Max Roach Trio featuring The Legendary Hasaan 2. Drums Unlimited 3. Speak Brother Speak 4. Scott Free 5. Streams Of Consciousness 6. Birth & Rebirth 7. Live At Vielharmonie Munich 8. 1 In 2, 2 In 1 9. Long March 10. Parisian Sketches
  16. Y'know Jazzmoose, I actually followed your explanation right to the end (not an easy thing for me to do). Just don't ask me to say it back!
  17. How can you have alternate takes with farts? They're all good! Did he put them through the wah-wah? (one for each JJ disc)
  18. I ordered mine direct from Candid in the U.K. for $17.99 U.S. including shipping.
  19. Good comeback J. So, in layman's (dumbass) terms (yeah, I mean me), if on a keyboard you play a C note, what will come out are the frequencies on either side of that note? The example uses two inputs so does it always need two or can it be just one?
  20. Oh man, what did I start? Does having all or most of these live albums get repetitious? (spell check on that last word, please)
  21. Don't you have anything better to do? But seriously, are they all worth it? I've asked this on the ol' BNBB and I'm waiting for the Cellar Door sets to come out as it seemed that was most people's pick as best; but now having listen to the Jack Johnson box (all I can say is; I dig it!), it makes me curious again about the live sets again.
  22. I've seen this listed on Amazon. Does anyone have this? What exactly is on it?
  23. So I've listened to the whole Jack Johnson box set and see that ring modulator is used quite frequently. I can hear it, but what was or is it's actual purpose?
  24. The last set in the Miles Davis series; #3-Seven Steps to Berlin. Next fall it says!
