  1. Gorgeous in the stand there and look at it and say, my isn't that gorgeous sense, yeah, sure. But not in the sense of a gorgeous shrimp chile relleno. Enough pettifoolery, let's get back to naming all people who have played baritone sax, as well as some who still do!
  2. You know who was a helluva bari player (and tenor player also)? Mario Rivera. And some more love for Charles Tyler, never enough love for Charles Tyler. I'll tell you who's a fine player but who I just don't have the personal use for is that Gary Smuylan guy, for starters. I just don't have the personal use for a lot of "today's" players, no matter what ilk of which they might be. Starting to dig basson more, except at the bottom end of a section, not sure a bassoon gets it done, can't see Doc Kupka on a basson. But otherwise. Dale Fielder, that's another guy who makes "a lot" of records, and I'm like, ok, and so? So, I recommend that you do not listen to Gary Smuylan and Dale Fielder, separately or togetherly. Why? Because I don't think you should, simple as that. Or Lars Gullin, either, for that matter, it'll get you nowhere except right back there. If that's where you want to be, then you're already there! I'll take a Mulligan, and then with pen in hand more than with horn in mouth. Now Charles Davis, yes, listen to Charles Davis, he will grow your hair and improve you ability to have the sex life. I thought fathead kicked ass on bari until I heard hog. Play a Warne Marsh record at half-speed, ok, that ends it all. Or any tenor player. Or hand your favorite foo-foo alotists a bari and show them that yes, there is manhood in Bb, deal with it. I liked Bruce Johnstone with Maynard, when I was a kid, hey sounded like Jug. Ok, "sounded" like Jug. But heart in right place, credit allowed for. Ok, who else has played bari, let's get them named. But young Ronnie Cuber, geesus, that guy was nails. He got older and remained excellent, but not as dangerously so.
  3. Yes. Please direct all future commentary on the matter to this thread, lest we become discombobulated with discombobulation!
  4. Hello Ronnie Cuber with Hamp in 1965, neither distrust in nor misunderstanding of the mission at hand: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x15164_flying-home-hampton-lionel-1965_music And I thought I had heard bari until hearing Hog with Buster Smith.
  5. 25 Across on #2 = Arvil Shaw
  6. DJ Screw The Wrecking Crew Phil Spector
  7. Roberta Flack Lorey Flick Roberts Zsuzsanna Fluck
  8. Is this the record? Discogs says this: http://www.discogs.com/Gerry-MulliganShorty-RogersChet-Baker-The-Vibes-Are-On/release/4033764 So for Shorty...Carnegie Hall?
  9. You shoulda said DiMaggio.
  10. Royals forgot their math tonight. 2-2 does not equal 3.-2, and 4-1 does not equal 13-4. Laugh before breakfast, cry before supper, my grandma always said. Under normal conditions, I'd say advantage, Giants, but let's see which team is 3-2 going back to KC first. And even then... But geez, get the math right, Royals. OTOH, Hunter Pence is a lot of fun to watch. But so is Lorenzo Cain!
  11. 2 Down = Bridge
  12. The Bardahl Man The Silva Thins Man An Aqua Velva Man
  13. Imagine the Fischer as being the type of album Gil Evans could have made if his primary collaborator had been Lennie Tristano instead of Miles Davis. That's a gross oversimplification, but start from there and see where it goes.
  14. fwiwimo, this is one of the "desert island" picks for this pair, somebody should want to carpe diem.
  15. Wow...so much wrong with the visuals, yet in the end, it's right.
  16. Well, thanks, but really, I was just a kid who had an opportunity once or twice and was lucky enough to not fuck it up. That's about as far as that goes. Really, thank Red, and thank everybody like him.
  17. Paging Teasing The Korean! Pretend the journey is to space, and there you are.
  18. Santana or El Chicano? Percy Faith has the answer - BOTH!!! How'd it sit with you? I need to rebuy their first album, purged it a while back, and need a "real" copy of their second. But talk about an interesting cast of characters...
  19. Sprout Watches John Cameron Swayze Tikken Manus
  20. There we go, welcoming a newcomer to jazz and this site with a warm, friendly greeting. You do misunderstand, sir, those were serious suggestions. The background vocals of the example were very Brian Wilson-ish, the tempo/groove can be found on any # of Ray Conniff cuts, and my admiration of Singers Unlimited is very real and has been noted in these pages on more than one occasion. Their collaborations with Pat Williams & Boss Brass might well be in the OP's sweet spot, as may the other suggestions.
  21. See, that's what I'm hoping, that the company is now at best semi-active (because it takes time to do that type thing right) and that a deal was made to empty out excess inventory.. So with that hope at best 51% alive until hearing otherwise...check this out. Because this stuff is all going for "above retail" from Amazon sellers. http://www.jazzmessengers.com/en/40025525/complete-catalog-of-the-label-jazz-records
