    Azar Lawrence

    The implication here is that he was pursuing a career in R&B as writer and producer: https://www.allaboutjazz.com/musicians/azar-lawrence/
  2. Oh. Ok. I was just wondering what band it was. I couldn't make out that fine print.
  3. Nate Colbert!!!
  4. Kellogg's and Post both, yes. I very much collected both in my youth. Where are they now?!?!?! I had a seperate section for them called "Cereal Box Cards". Why not? Even had a few Jello cards. Anything from before cards got "valuable", yes those can bring large bucks due to scarcity. So many got thrown out. But all the things that don't have actual logos because there's no licensing, hey, only a very few people are going to want those. I guess the closest comparison would be the Mother's Cookies cards of not too long ago. There's a market, but...."niche" is putting it mildly.
  5. Eddie Marshall was always good!
  6. Never knew of Bobby Hutcherson on any Concord records! Who produced those?
  7. 45 EPs are usually 45s with more than one song on one side, or both. They came out of the format wars between RCA & Columbia. RCA bet that people didn't want those big bulky 10" LPs with all that music on it and that a smaller record with a bigger hole was the way to the public's heart. Dig around the better used shops and you can still find EP packaging of LP programs. No stone left unturned.
  8. It's like those baseball cards that were put out by local bakeries and shit. There will be a bit of a market but they'll never be considered canon.
  9. 7" 33? My mom had this one: Also had buttloads of them in the school band hall. Publishers would send them out for demonstration/ promotional use.
  10. Cefome Greene - The Greene Album
  11. Can't have anemic offense like the US did tonight and expect to beat WI...and if course the match was over in stoopid fast time. Plenty of time for West Coast baseball tonight!
  12. I played some wedding band gigs with Frank a looking time ago. Great player, super nice guy. Glad to see him having success, hope there's much more ahead for him!
  13. Sarge! - Sunshine On My Soldiers!!!
  14. I kinda bristle at the notion of "print the legend" in this case, because the real story as we know it raises real questions that we can't easily answer, or even answer at all. Not at all a "legend". To which any competent doctor would respond with ok, we'll look at that, and oh by the way, are you a doctor? But doctors can be just as lazy as anybody...
  15. They allow for it, but they do not prove or depend on it to be true. Several "accusations" have been made that have not been able to refute. "They found the diabetes" is not the issue. That's a given. Same for "He was already dyng anyway." The only variable in the equation is simply how soon did the doctors go to work. There are several explicit claims that it was not immediately. There are no claims to the contrary, just speculations that, uh, sure they did that are based on....what, exactly? Maybe the bigger insult is that nobody made enough noise about the death to get an official explanation from whatever the standard investigative procedure then would have been. No idea what that would have looked like, thoguh, time/place/people.
  16. Again - nobody is making claim that Dolphy came into the hospital - obviously in a bad way - and that the doctors immediately jumped up, went to work, and didn't stop until the diabetes was diagnosed. Yeah, that's who he was and what I heard him say.
  17. It's Canadian! And the ingredients alone are, uh...intimidating from a flavor standpoint....and they are proud of it! https://www.buckleys.ca/faq/ https://www.buckleys.ca/products/syrups/original-mixture/ Active Ingredients Each teaspoonful (5 mL) contains: 153 mg ammonium carbonate, 267 mg potassium bicarbonate, 22 mg menthol, and 2.2 mg camphor. Non-Medicinal Ingredients Canada balsam, carrageenan, glycerin, pine needle oil, propylparaben, sodium cyclamate, tincture of capsicum and water. Wondering why Amazon US is able to sell it, when they say its for Canadians only (allegedly due to them using cyclamate....
  18. BFTLand gets lonely sometimes, yes it does.....
  19. More than a few people have recounted the "just an overdose" story. Karl Berger is claiming that he was "in the room". Nobody that I have seen is claiming that the doctors immediately went right to work on a diagnosis. If there are any credible account claiming this, I'm certainly open to them. But there are none, not that I'm aware. Timeline is the point.
  20. I'm with you, Daviv. One guy in that film was the tour manager(?) and he was in charge of carting Eric back and forth from the hotel. He says that he just assumed that is was just a jazz musician overdosing. Several other people in that film corroborate the doctors assuming that this was just a drug overdose. Who actually took him in? That male nurse guy mentioned above, I did not see him in that movie. Please advise. I'm looking at the timelines in all these stories and not finding anything to contradict a timeline where the doctors delayed a proactive diagnostic for a little (duration unknown) while due to an assumption of overdose. And then when they did get busy, they found the diabetes and proceeded accordingly (even if they did use some kind of super-insulin that may or may not have delivered the final blow). This is a timeline that square all accounts. This is how Sherlock Holmes would do it, and Sherlock is the gold standard imo.
  21. Assuming an overdose, regardless of the outcome, is not good medical practice now, not wads it then. I've yet to see any claims that the doctors got busy as soon as they brought him in. Who is saying that?
