How 'bout the complete Hank Crawford Milestones? Is too much of a good thing too much?

Well, I daresay there's more good critics than there are good soundmen, and I don't necessarily mean that as a tribute to critics...

hmmm....I'll certainly agree that criticism is an art unto itself, and that good writing is as stimulating (in its own way) as good music, but... ...to say that criticism is "an indispensable part of" the music itself....not so sure about that...for publicity, yeah, but most of the people who move things ahead do it in spite of/without a critical impetus or lack thereof. Other than, of course, in terms of career enhancement, which is, of course, a sometimes thing at best, and only partially "musical", sometimes for the better, sometimes not. Don't get me wrong - Larry Kart is a great artist indeed, but he is not a musician, just as Charlie Parker was not a great writer. Different arts altogether. Even though they have a pretty healthy intersection along the way, ultimately they diverge.

Well, that's what/why I was wonderiong....Tootie referred to Bill Carney as Shirley Scott's husband, not Trudy Pitts'...

Quite a bit of it is "must-have", I think.

Randy Alfred Lionel

I remember a nice 60 Minutes piece on Harburg, from the 70s.

Did he mean Trudy Pitts when he talked about Shirley Scott?

Used to be, back in the day, but then he died, the international/independent label thing opened way up, Lee Konitz stayed alive, etc...

That's him traing fours w/Ten Beneke on "In The Mood".

That album is excellent. I've heard that one of those intern-net sites, what are they called, flogs?, has put this album up and has included a bonus mashup of "Honky Tonk" & Mjackson's "The Way You Make Me Feel" called "The Way You Make Me Honky Tonk" and that it's not all that bad, actually, all things considered.

I found it "on the internet"... unfortunately more Bill Black than Bill Doggett overall... But handclaps, yeah chewy, a thread about great handclaps would not be out of order...they're sort of a secret weapon, handclaps are.

Chet Kincaid -great show, greater character name, and one of the greatest theme songs ever: Theme song revisited by Brandford Marsalis: Chet Kincaid!

Alto... hey - alto. Life is cheap.

Von can fuck you up.

Yeah, Steve Potts is on TWO Chico sides: Drummer Chico Hamilton released this LP in 1968 on the Solid State label, players are Stephen Potts and Russell Andrews on sax, Jimmy Cleveland, Britt Woodman, William Cambell and Jimmy Cheatham on trombone, Jackie Arnold on voice, Jan Arnett on bass, Chico Hamilton on drums and Danny Banks on flute. 1.

This intriguing if erratic set features up-and-comers in altoist Steve Potts (who would later be a longtime member of Steve Lacy's group) and guitarist Eric Gale, along with the obscure tenor-saxophonist Russ Andrews, but this particular band would not last long. Most unusual is that Ray Nance, formerly with Duke Ellington for 20 years, is heard exclusively on violin and he sounds quite at home on the more adventurous pieces. Highlights include Eric Gale featured on the blues "Guitar Willie" (which has a fast bossa nova rhythm), Nance and Potts battling it out on "Reach and Grab It" and the group's spirit on "Them's Good Ole Days." However, a few throwaway numbers (particularly "I Found It" and "Ol' Man") lower this set's value. Head Hunters (named a few years before Herbie Hancock formed his group of the same name) is not essential, but it is a missing link in the long career of Chico Hamilton.

Well, I've never met the man, much less known him, so the only way I can judge his comedy is to listen to it.

Check out the tune list! Tracks: 01 - Honky Tonk 02 - Last Night 03 - Smokie 04 - Rumble 05 - You Can't Sit Down 06 - Ram-Bunk-Shush 07 - 20-75 08 - Guitar Boogie Shuffle 09 - Raunchy 10 - Soul Twist 11 - Sleep Walk And the album cover Uhhh...

If this was a blindfold test I NEVER would have picked The Ventures. Now I'm wondering if there's an earlier version... Yes, and it is in E, and no, the guitarist doesn't come close to Butler in fluidity, grace, and/or musicality: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G1OHPke8-NM Now, that later version...how is that The Ventures except in name? But...if the whole record has Jackie Kelso playing like that, then it is one to find!
