If you go to Dolphy, you go to Sonny Criss, I think...all those L.A. altoists have a certain tinge to their tone & a certain pronounced rhythmic curlicue that as far as I can tell is coming out of Criss' reaction to Bird. Of course, the way stuff happens in real time is never quite as cut and dried/easily delineated as it is after the fact... Q.E.D. in-DEED!

No...

That's Whitey Ford, of course! My hint is this - there is a Lee Majors connection.

Absolutely, but we can't trust our ears and common sense - we need flowcharts. ! (although...Buster Smith was a Texas guy...but again, flowcharts or it didn't happen)

Do we dare bring Sam Butera into the discussion?

Not just a verbal pun, but a visual one as well!

Calling it The Complete Candid Recordings Of.... set up a different expectation than would have The Candid Recordings Of... or some such. But at the time, Mosaic was calling every set "The Complete" and boasting abot it. So yeah, ther was a disconnect, at least for me. They've adapted since, but at the time it was just a tad weaselly, I thought.

Flowchart or it didn't happen, please, (preferably made with Visio)..

That Mosaic was one of the first to be openly not fully "complete" in terms of unissued material, which kinda pissed me off. So I wrote a letter to Cuscuna saying as much, and he wrote back saying, in effect, sorry, but complete doesn't have to be complete, because we have - and will exercise - discretion in such matters. Which still pissed be off, because...complete means complete. Period. If it doesn't, then fuck language (not a bad idea at all, although not in this way). But whatcha' gonna do? As for Lord...I don't own his work, but there's a lot of people here who seem to think that he copies and pastes a lot, so...I remember hearing about the new take on the Candid CD when it came out, seems that it was mentioned in a review or two, but if Lord C&P-ed from a source that preceded that issue, then there you have it.

That's why when you travel, it's worth it if at all possible to go a block or two away from the interstate and find an actual grocery store. Keep a cooler of fruit, salad fixin's, juices, waters, etc. Worth the few extra minutes, trust me. It always amazes me who people traveling don't want to go into a grocery store while there's on the road. Hell, besides the good stuff to take with you, many have a kitchen the prepares food and meals right there in-house, already prepped and made. We're creatures of habit, and "fast food on the road" is a deeply ingrained one. But for real - a stop at a local grocery will one one way or another get you fed better and cheaper than will a tip to a fast fool joint. Try it and see!

Guess Who?

It is indeed Lee Majors! (who played both Steve Austin & Heath Barkley on tv roles)

Sorry Dad, spent all my money on Visio! But you know, if indeed one was to only have one record because of purchasing high-powered corporate flow-chart software, that would not be a bad one to have! Still, that being then, and this being now (at least for now), let's see if we can't rock it like this, ok? The Tenor Taxonomy deserves nothing less!
