  1. I already have, over the weekend. Excited to hear it at last, haven't yet gotten to.
  2. Is a Jerry Valburn joke out of place here?
  3. and they for damn sure ain't Bill Barron.
  4. Seems like they start look at improvisation in general, past jazz. I can tell an improvisor within the first 30 seconds or so of meeting them, they'll either go or they won't.. It's not just a music thing, it's a whole mindset.
  5. # 1 - Louis, but I don't know the tune. Don't need to, it's Louis! # 2 - Not Louis, and I still don't know the tune. I'll assume that it's Django, but I hope it's not. Not in the mood for this kind of thing right now, it sounds pretty gross, actually, but that's just me at this moment. #3 oh HELL yeah. #4 https://www.discogs.com/Benny-Goodman-And-His-Orchestra-Honeysuckle-Rose-Spring-Song/release/1801386 Toots, Buff, Bus, and Jerry rockin' the section politely but rightly. Fletcher Henderson as played by Benny Goodman, that's a very real thing, hello! #5 - I heard Les Paul right away, but the cut itself was unknown to me, had to hunt, but found it. Hello Joe Venuti, and I tell people, don't sell Kay Starr short, that woman could deal. I'd buy this...hell, I just did, thanks! #6 - Django & Ellington live. Somehow this was among the first Django I heard, probably on some crazy back alley Ellington lp. Very simpatico those two, and check Django out, getting all hip and shit, that guy... #7 - And this time https://www.discogs.com/Django-Reinhardt-Le-Quintette-Du-Hot-Club-De-France-Avec-Hubert-Rostaing-On-The-Sunny-Side-Of-The-St/release/5390085 #8 - Diddy Galippy on the Stuff(y) side of the street, with his bebop joe carrol on parade. #9 - almost a Trenier? #10 - No idea #11 - That trio, Gene Krupa, eh, whatever, but Benny & Teddy always fir, from then until the end #12 No, not Bob Wills, wrong "Western", but swing, yes. https://www.discogs.com/Django-Reinhardt-St%C3%A9phane-Grappelli-Eddie-South-Lady-Be-Good/release/7516952 #13 - No idea # 14 - Sounds like Benny's band recorded all wrongly. But that tenor player is really familiar. Oh shit, that's Shaw..and that's Buddy Rich, with Georgie Auld on tenor. Who mastered this? #15 - Eric Clapton? Hell, you kept me up past my bedtime, starting with Hawk, Hawk was a motherfucker, not that Louis wasn't, but Hawk, geez, that one hooked me right in, then Benny, then Kay Starr, hell, I gotta go to bed. But this was some tasty stuff, hooked me for longer than I had planned, thank you!
  6. https://qz.com/1262896/everything-created-is-predicted-by-nature-a-new-video-explains-the-physics-of-flow/ Life is movement that evolves freely, in both animate and inanimate spheres. Alive are all the freely changing flow configurations and rhythms that facilitate flow and offer greater access to movement. When movement stops, life ends. When movement does not have the freedom to change and find greater access, life ends.
  7. Where were you shopping? It was always available back in my day. Solid State was by then under the UA umbrella and Chick was a "star". But before then, the record had quite a cult following. Future Star UNT Piano Prof Dan Haerle did an annotated transcription of "Matrix" in DB long before the RTF era, and now, look at this, Bert Ligon was one of Haerle's star students (and a perfectly fine player). What I get most out of this slowed-down audio is that Roy Haynes!

    And it doesn't have to be either/or, if players start dancing in a real, thoughtfully choreographical way, it doesn't mean that everybody has to start doing that, or that the audience for sitting and listening music is rong or anything like that. I just means that there would be yet another option for expression and receiving. More options.

    I like what she's doing with dance at least as much as I don't care at all for how she plays. When I talk about the possibilities of fusing dance and playing, I'm quite serious, and I hope she pushes that. That could get pretty interesting, seriously. But if all she does is play, then...have fun with that, I guess. Between HBCU marching bands and some of the funk bands that came out of that tradition, it's not like playing while dancing (and vice-versa) doesn't have a proven history of viability. Now let's see what else can be done. For that matter: Those are some baaaad motherfuckers right there.
  11. This time focusing on Henry Grimes, who is more than a little strong throughout.
  12. Quo vadis, y que pasa?

    Let's start counting the reasons why that comparison is totally meaningless and see what we run out of first, reasons, or numbers.
  14. Ready to move past the hits, is their one set that really gets all of the good stuff under one roof? If not, what's the best way to have the most under as few roofs as possible?

  16. written by Bruce Geller as well. Did Dorough do acting as well, or was this just a one-off for him?
