Do old coots prefer old cooters? And vice-versa? I tell you, that's what's wrong with America today! Coots, cooters, and while we're at it, cooties, getting all up in the wrong place at the wrong time. Make we wanna holler... Coot Gibson, where are you when we need you?

Peg Leg Pete Peg O'My Heart The Chick Who Killed Her Husband By Stabbing Him In The Heart With His Peg Leg (If In Fact Such A Woman Ever Existed)

Yeah, I got mine in the mail yesterday and listened a few times. It's good, it's Ornette being Ornette (as if he could ever be anybody/anything else...), and that's good enough for me. Kinda "retro", but when it's Ornette being Ornette, hey, that's pretty much a non-consideration. How do you confine timelessness to time? I'm curious as to who made the introductions, though. That voice reminds me of Webster Armstrong!

Even if they were never any good? Hypothetical question...

Shake Keane Simon Rattle Esther Rolle

The Houston Colt .45s The Houston Astros Daughter Judy

That info in no way changes how I feel about her receiving the cachet that comes with this award (such as it is), but it certainly changes the way I feel about her receiving the cash that comes from it.

It would be nice if BN reissued that freekin PJ trio album!

Exactly!

Thanks! Some of it sounds like Stan Kenton playing a Johnny Quest show, but some of it's a litle more interesting. In time I suppose... But the rest of that site definitely caught my eye!

http://www.dustygroove.com/jazzlp4.htm#432135 Well, I don't know how pyramids feel at dawn, but this sounds like it might be interesting. AMG's description of this band in their bio of Ragab makes it sound like this might be really good, really weird, really bad, or maybe all of the above. Anybody know of this work by this band? As always, thanks in advance.

Yes. I would anyway. She's just not that impressive a player to me.

His brother Peter was the genius behind Paul & Mary.

As somebody who's heard more than a few auctioneers, I tell you this in all sincerity - it's like a Buddy Rich drum solo, only better.

No scorn towards Regina Carter here, just towards her receiving this type of an award.

Jerry Valentine Jim Valvano The Fine Folks At Valvoline

I've got a couple of Enja things on CD (Angels Of Atlanta is indeed gorgeous) & the Muse, as well as his "symphonic" type thing on Teldec (not too fond of that one...). There was an Atlantic thing that I've still not heard. Same for an MPS date. The guy's not exactly been prolific over the years, but more often than not, when he's spoken, I've at least listened. Strong player with a true spirit, it seems to me.

No hatred here. But read that list...

I've been ordering a fair amount of dance/remix/electronica/nu-jazz/whatever from Da' Bastids, so I don't know if they targeted me for this one or if they're giving one to everybody. But with my last order (Tolliver's Impact on Enja & Jazzanova's In Between), they send me this nice samler CD from Cubop records, which is apparently "the Latin jazz division of Ubiquity Recordings, Inc", which also owns the Ubiquity & Luv n' Haight labels. So anyway, it's got a bunch of pretty nice recently recorded Salsa by some names I've heard of (Jack Costanzo, Dave Pike, Snowboy, Babatunde Lea), some I haven't (Grupo X, Marlon Simon, Bobby Matos, Ray Armando, The Jazz on the Latin Side All-Stars - w/Al McKibbon! - Afroshock), and one I'd just as soon not have (A.Sandoval, for those who might care). Anyway, my receipt was stamped with a red Shipment includes free promotional CD! Yes, there was a "!". There's always a "!" at Dusty Groove. I think they do it on purpose. But hey - free CD, and I didn't even ask for it. !

Looks like Plas Johnson's on it: http://www.plasjohnson.com/PJ/Biography/Di...y/plassjazz.htm

Zorn? Yeah, ok, whatever, sure. It's that kind of thing for that kind of world. But Regina Carter? Based on what? I'm calling bullshit on that one. Not that it matters, and not that it's a surprise. But I'm still calling bullshit.

Forty-Niner Darling Clementine My Funny Valentine

I got a Hannibal 12" single direct-to-disc thing from Japan that's "Naima" on one side and something else on the other. Pretty nice, but how and if it'll ever be reissued on cd beats me.
