  1. Ah, got it. I was WAY off. I didn't realize that the photo you'd posted was satirical -- or how it was satirical.
  2. Bill -- Now that you've answered, you've also got to propose another pair.
  3. NP: Geri Allen - Twylight (Minor Music/Verve, 1989)
  4. I've never seen that stuff. It's mouthwash?
  5. I'm resurrecting a thread from the long-defunct AAJ board. It's simple idea, but it sometimes prompted some good discussion. And it's always interesting to see what people's preferences are, how they compare to your own. Since this is in the Miscellaneous Music section, let's limit ourselves to music -- but it doesn't necessarily have to be jazz. Some examples: - Rollins or Coltrane? (the classic duality) - Dylan or Joni? (the classic duality, singer-songwriter edition) - The Stones or The Who? (the classic duality, rock edition) - Dewey Redman or Don Redman? (wordplay is always a plus) - Atlantic Jazz in the 60s or Atlantic Jazz in the 70s? (the label thing, the decade thing) When you make a choice, you can provide a rationale, if you'd like -- but it's not required. Then you provide the next set of choices, and so it goes, leapfrogging along. I'll go first: Chu Berry or Herschel Evans?
  6. Still sounds incredible, every time I listen -- which is often! One of Wes' best!
  7. From one legendary Latin American singer to another:
  8. Dave Liebman Group - Further Conversations: Live (True Azul, 2015)
  9. Love the sartorial commentary.
  10. Yep. No problem with the concept. ... I'm just not drawn into it like I am with most of Hawes' records. He almost feels like a secondary character, rather than the star of the show.

    Ernie Watts

    Yeah that. ^ Especially the first record with Billy Higgins.
  12. via YT: Hampton Hawes - Northern Windows (Prestige, 1974) Hawes' one (?) collaboration with producer David Axelrod. ... One word reaction: Meh. and Illinois Jacquet - Go Power! (Cadet, 1966) with Milt Buckner & Alan Dawson, recorded at Lennie's on the Turnpike ... One word reaction: Yeah!
  13. Michel Petrucciani - 100 Hearts (George Wein Collection/Concord, 1984) Solo piano
  14. Now spinning this album again: Lou Donaldson - Ha' Mercy (Cadet) Earlier today: Daniel Ponce - Arawe (Antilles New Directions, 1987)
  15. Now listening to Fathead's Resurgence! as heard on this 32 Jazz reissue: Excellent!
  16. More Cannonball: and
  17. I love that Chico record. Scorching hot Arthur Blythe. I would also recommend this Cannonball album:
  18. Now listening via YT:
  19. The 4-into-1 exhaust was also very distinctive on that bike. I had a CB-650 back in the day. Honda inline fours rule. NP:
  20. Saw this yesterday: This movie bowled me over, and I want to see it again. It's a strange, logic-defying story. The film unfolds slowly, and things just happen -- just like in a dream. It's more interested in depicting psychological realities than telling a realistic story. The way that the filmmaker David Lowery uses images -- rather than dialogue or plot -- reminds me of Stanley Kubrick.
  21. Yes, that's on Moody's one Paula LP. I don't have that one, but I've heard it. I figure I'll eventually get around to picking it up.
  22. Yep! My copy is a cutout, and it was still sealed when I bought it a few years back.
  23. Funny you say that Jim, because I was just working on this "supplement": Five more from Moody for good measure: - Moody's Mood for Blues (Prestige); compiles two LPs recorded in 1954-55 - Hey, It's James Moody (Argo, 1960) - Running the Gamut (Scepter, 1965) - much more boppish than other LPs from this time -- with Thad Jones - Moody & the Brass Figures (Milestone, 1968) - more of "listening" album; with arrangements by Tom McIntosh - Feelin' It Together (Muse/32 Jazz, 1974) - includes an amazing version of "Anthropology"
