I've actually played with George Duvivier on numerous occasions! https://www.discogs.com/Bob-Wilber-For-Saxes-Only/release/7669185

Janacek — Makropulos Case – Bohumil Gregor/Prague National Theatre (Stereo pressing! Includes original box and book!) Bartok — 6 String Quartets – Takacs Quartet (CD case has a cutout hole.) Billy Bang — Distinction Without A Difference (with bonus tracks) Monday Michiru — Naked Breath 2

High revolving as well, I'd imagine! And quick dissolving!

Like Barbie's breasts, and about in the same place. Go figure.

This thing had battery-powered noise, made by two spinning plastic balls at the ends of two thin plastic posts. One of them broke, like, within a month, so I had a broke-down sounding jeep, but the rest of it all worked, and was some cool shit.

https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/11/business/stan-weston-dead-gi-joe-creator.html?_r=0 In 1963, Mr. Weston was a successful licensing agent who represented properties and personalities like the television drama “Dr. Kildare,” the comedian Soupy Sales and the Kingston Trio folk music group. When he approached the Hasbro toy company, he believed he might be able to replicate the success of the Barbie doll, the plastic fashionista that was introduced by Mattel in 1959 and was followed two years later by her boyfriend, Ken. From Elliott Handler, a founder of Mattel, he had learned that a popular product could spawn a big, continuous business, like Barbie’s outfits and accessories. “Stan, you’ve got to sell them the razor,” Mr. Weston said, recalling Mr. Handler’s advice in the book “Mego 8-Inch Super Heroes: World’s Greatest Toys!” (2007) by Benjamin Holcomb. “Then you can sell them a lot of blades.” This is the one I had. The damn hat wouldn't stay on his head.

Al Grey, of course!

Spooky! I was looking for the Crohonlohogical Classics CDs of Wilson today to see if they had become affordable yet *they had not), but did see exactly this item and ordered it immediately without even bother to look at the specifics of the track listings. YIPPEE!!!

Some of this stuff doesn't really make "sense" if there's not a dance floor with people on it. Some of the little jiggle-jaggles, just sounds like interactivity with the floor. Also interesting are the conversations the mike picks up, either from the band, the audience, maybe both. Can't say that there's anything as graphic as the Coleman Hawkins thing where he discusses the route he took to get to the gig, but some choice exclamations aplenty on this one!

Kudos to MJZEE for these images. HELL yeah!

Having a look at the liners for Wilson's Portraits, I see this, from one Eliot Tiegel: When he was with Basie, he wrote eight numbers for the Count's first Carnegie Hall concert in 1948. The thought of that venture causes Gerald to remember it today. "I write the 'Royal Suite' which was composed of the Jack, Queen, King of Hearts and the Ace. The Count liked to play poker...that's how it came about." Nothing there you don't already know, but this LP was from, when, 1964? So that's a relatively early-ish "historical mention", for whatever that's worth. While we're at it, I'm wondering if the arrangement of "Out Of This World" off of Everywhere , stated in the liners as being from 1945, was recorded in any way with original vocalist Joe Williams?

He played the Texas Ranger Earl McGraw in Mr. Rodriguez’s “From Dusk Till Dawn” (1996) and reprised the role in “Kill Bill” and “Grindhouse.” His son, James Parks, appeared in the “Kill Bill” movies as McGraw’s son, Edgar.

Wearing cleats, I hope?

Crip Heard is not impressed.

yeah yeah yeah. BUT....

I try to see all sides of an issue.

Check this first one out - Nelson Riddle, Tommy Flanagan, Al McKibbon(?), and who's the drummer? And last but not least, here's one for Arlen:

Summary: https://www.axios.com/emb-until-1pm-chemists-2400618541.html?utm_medium=linkshare&utm_campaign=organic Why it matters: Drug-resistant bacteria pose a serious global health threat. In the U.S. alone, an estimated 23,000 people die each year from infections that can't be fought with existing antibiotics. E.Coli, acetinobacter that can be picked up in hospitals, and other types of bacteria with a tough outer membrane are becoming increasingly resistant to drugs. Efforts to create new antibiotics have come up short because they can't get into the cell. How it works: Chemists at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign tested 180 different compounds that could penetrate E. Coli and figured out what features allowed some to make it through the cell membrane. Using those attributes, they then modified a natural compound that works on the other class of bacteria (without an outer membrane) and found it could then penetrate both types of microbes. What's next: Getting in is step one — a compound would also have to kill the bug. The researchers point out that the compound itself may not work for treatment but that they now have a list of features that they hope can guide discovery and development of new drugs.

Was there a dance floor at the Crescendo?

Just starting in on this one, really enjoying the presence of the recording ...on Disc One, "Indian Summer" is certainly Wild Bill Davis' arrangement, as most of it later turns up played by Ellington as "Remmus Naidni" here (and also contains perhaps my singlemost favorite Paul Gonsalves sol).
