7/4

why would that matter? great press.

Maybe I'll get my act together to hear them in NYC this time. I hope they get there.

57? too damm young...

Cool. It's been a looong time since I've heard that band live. Once for the first album and once for the second album.

... and what CNN will be covering for the next two years. My reaction too.

Last time I tried to comment, I couldn't even post!

Have a un. They only happen once a year!

Everything I've heard on that label have sounded amazing. I have a friend who studied with Don. I wonder if Don was using the quarter tone trp at this point. I still haven't heard him yet, any suggestions folks?

Well, the late Richard Bock basically changed the label Pacific Jazz to World Pacific in the late 50's if I remember correctly and later started a cassette-only label called Ravi Shankar Music Circle that not only featured Shankar, but also a wonderful eclectic group of both Hindustani and Carnatic musicians. I believe some of the titles are now available as CDs. I bought this whole series in the 80's. Here's a sample: Hey, it's Ira Landgarten from from Raga records. It's a great label and I used to see him at raga concerts recording the event.

I say no, but I remember my parents did it when I was a kid until my Dad had to go on a low/no salt diet. I forgot about this.

Happy Birthday to such a wonderful guitar player! Metheny, Pat 8/12/1954

I love it. Don't listen to it too often, but I still dig it. Late Trane is good for the soul.

Oh man. That's rough. Sometimes that's the case. Getting a deal can be a good thing, but one sometimes has to eat crap. If it's a small run, you too can be responsible for it selling out.

Come on...there's no ethics in the magazine business or any other. Business sucks.

Sarah Vaughan makes me cry. Beats the crap out of Wynton making you cry.

#207 The Complete Pacific Jazz Joe Pass Quartet Sessions #213 The Classic Columbia and OKeh Joe Venuti and Eddie Lang Sessions + the Charles Lloyd single. I ended up dropping bux on these suckers on Saturday, they showed up yesterday. I was enjoying the Lloyd & the first two Pass discs earlire today.

not here, at least now.

Celibacy's a bitch... seems like just yesterday...

This might be what pushed him over the edge.

I love it, I was just listening to it this weekend.

8/9/1942 Happy Birthday Jack and many more, you made my life a better place. I wrote this in another thread last year and it's still true: and they still sound great!

It would depend, no? yes.

BB in the late '70s.

good times, good times.
