Wikipedia agrees with that.

I had it on a Pickwick reissue of the Mame album. It's a track - the track - back to which I continue to come.

Calling Greg Waits!!!

I found his Sinatra book to be frustratingly erratic, and have not really cared too much about him one way or the other ever since. Then again, what is there to care about? Songs? Singers? Still? Really? :g

It's got "Cheesecake" on it. For what more could you ask?

That's more like it! With Chombo, the American influences were the branches. The roots were in Cuba, in the clave, the son, the Cuban articulation of the Spanish language (and that's a whole 'nother game right there, Cuban Spanish...). The cat was equally adept playing violin in a charanga band as he was playing All The Things You Are with Mongo. And the more one becomes familiar with the more "native" influences, the more distinct the character of his playing becomes. A lot of "homework", to be sure, and ultimately it might only matter some, but...it's there for the taking if one is interested. Cuba is not a secondary world of music, it is a fundamental, one of the world's primal sources. I'm a big (enough) fan of melting pot, but melting and erasing are not the same thing and should not be confused (not saying you are, Larry, just making a general statement). I know Marty Holmes' work with Puente, it's fine, same with Brew/Machito, but they both definitely sound "American" at root, whereas Chombo does not, which is as it should be, I'm just saying that Chombo = Marty only in the sense of good tenor players playing in "Latin" bands.

Nor Mays with the Giants. Nor Aaron with the Braves. Nor Boog Powell with the Orioles, and that's the worst one of all.

Cuba?

Did Marty play off the clave like Chombo did?

You'd rather have Scott?

Yeah, it's been around in one form another for quite a while. Allow me to suggest finding the live Fantasy albums of Mongo (at the Blackhaw?) and gradually introducing yourself to the subtle beauty that is Chombo Silva. I say gradually, becuase Snr. Silva's assets might at first be hidden behind a curtain of "obvious" "American influences". But be fooled ye not! I'm also a strong advocate for Side One of this early 70s Mongo side: Side two...not so much. But that Side One is in there.

I'm all for younger, healthier, and less vain. (and thanks for understanding that "fuck the Yankees" is more or less a catchphrase not intended in any way to stir personal animus) And I'm still not in favor of a salary cap, think it's un-American to cap an individual's earning potential, but... With freedom comes responsibility, and owners have a responsibility to be just as hard-ass in negotiations as do players, and this whole "money is no object" thing, of which the Yankees have by no means been the only guilty parties, is just nuts. I'll say it again, for the Yankees and for the Rangers - Cliff Lee? 7 years? Really? Based on what?

Hey - fuck the Yankees (still!), and as soon as the Rangers have even a semi-viable Plan B , fuck Cliff Lee too. 7 years? Really? Based on what? You know what, fuck Cliff Lee, period, even if he does sign with us. I smell prima-donna just a little too strongly... give me one or two more no-name pitchers who can reach that post-season No-Name Colby Lewis zone more often than not all year long & Mr. Lee can go sit in the air-conditioner for as long as he likes. Even longer. Of course, I'd still rather be with him than without him, but...fuck him nevertheless.

Fine session, that one.

Life is never long enough to get it all in, is it? Had noticed your absence lately, and had feared that this was the reason. Damn. The most heartfelt condolences possible to you and your family.

When one shows up here and appears to be showing up strictly for the sole purpose of pimping one's ebay sale, one should not be surprised if one gets an ambiguous response. This is jazz, baby. We know pimps.

My life waste away.

Up. No sense in letting singing this good this sink w/o a trace.
