Isn't that her on the cover?

I certainly appreciate the concept, but is it possible that the setup of individual threads inside seperate sub-forums inside a whole new category makes it more difficult to readily access/peruse information rather than easier?

http://www.dustygroove.com/videos.htm#426978 DVD -- Playboy After Dark (3DVD set) . . . DVD Morada Vision, 1959/1960/1969 (3DVD) Condition: New Copy The long-overdue release of one of the hippest TV shows ever -- the legendary Playboy After Dark, one of the most unusual musical shows ever broadcast! The format for the program was unique -- it took place as a live party at the Playboy Penthouse of Hugh Hefner -- a really mixed affair where artists of all styles, races, and political convictions would hang out together and rap about their work and a variety of topical issues. And sure, the whole thing was a bit staged, but it still managed to come off pretty great -- thanks to a particular talent on Hef's part for mixing together mainstream and underground, right wing and liberal -- all at a late 60s moment when intersecting lifestyles could clash as often as come together! 3DVD package features 4 shows from 1968 and 1969 -- plus 2 more from the earlier Playboy's Penthouse show at the end of the 50s -- a total of 6 episodes in all, filled with conversation and performances by Lenny Bruce, Sammy Davis Jr, Ike & Tina Turner, The Checkmates Ltd, Jerry Lewis, Mort Sahl, Vic Damone, Dick Shawn, Canned Heat, Sonny & Cher, Billy Eckstine, and Joe Cocker! I figure it's either a total mess, a kitsch classic, or an interesting window into a unique time in American pop culture history. Or all of the above. Anybody?

No, Blue Ballads isn't listed on AMG for some reason. But it's on the Japanese Venus label, and is a very worthy listen I think. I think that Cadence might carry it. Another really good one is Ginseng, a 1986 date made under the co-leadership of African pianist Tchangodei, about whom I know nothing other than that he plays really well. More info here: http://www.tchangodei.com/frameset-mus-gb.htm The side on Fluid w/Joe Lee Wilson is called A Touch Of The Blues, and to my knowledge has never been out on CD. Worth the hunt, but it'll probably be a long one... The Delmark side w/The Ethnic Heritage Ensemble is readily available, although I think it might be more readily appreciated by somebody who's followed Shepp's later years with interest rather than relative disinterest. All the Steeplechase duet sides w/Parlan are very much to my liking. Also on Steeplechase is another duet album, this time with Jasper Van't Hof, Mama Rose, that I've always been fond of. It's got both sythesizers & Shepp vocals, so be forewarned, but the music has always reached me. The duet sides w/Max Roach are truly essential latter-day Shepp, I think. The Long March on hat is the better known and more easily found, but another, significantly more obscure one, Force, on the Italian Base label, is the shit afaic. That bad boy is serious. But once again, good luck finding it... Of course, no Shepp collection is complete w/o his performance w/a then unknown Whitney houston on a Material side, but that's edging into, shall we say, "esoterica". Shepp's been such a whore about recording over the years (really, he was David Murray before David Murray was...) that you gotta wade through a whole lot of shit (ranging from merely mediocre to truly horrible) to find the good stuff, and quite often the good stuff is on little "rural" labels that came and went w/little more that a (hopefully) few coins for the players at the end of the session and a few LPs that made it out into the world for a few minutes. And other than the Steeplechase sides (with & w/o Parlan), I can't really say that any of Shepp's "high profile" (in terms of American distibution) dates have shown him at what I would consider his latter-day best. C'est la vie... As for the tenor thing, yeah - it's a very physically demanding instrument, especially if you approach it like Shepp does/did and use a wide open mouthpiece, the stiffest possible reed, and an embrochure that basically consists of frequently swallowing the mouthpiece, blowing as hard as you can, and letting your cheeks puff out to an extent that rivals Dizzy Gillespie's. That's what he needed to to to get that powerful sound of his, but you can only taunt nature for so long, if you know what I mean...

Just a little herb on a break. Nothing scandalous.

Fair enough, although I'd submit for consideration the thought that from their respective beginnings, Roscoe was first and foremost an explorer whose voice was the semi-secondary byproduct of his searching, that Shepp was first and foremost a voice whose innovations were the semi-secondary byproduct of his developing that voice, and that in that regard, things are still as they were at the beginning. As they almost inevitably are.
