Yeah, I don't mind.

But what if 6 turns out to be 9?

In a perfect world, the entire 1964 European tour recordings would be packaged in a single collection. http://webusers.siba.fi/~eonttone/mingus/1964.html

That's a pretty strong summation of my feelings (and, I would assume, sentiments held by lots of folks on this BBS). Indeed.

But please, be careful. It's a long drive.

Hijack away! Mine is a fairly static question.

Yep, low points for both men afaic.

Upon further reflection, I believe that the commercial was for the Las Vegas Jazz Society.

Hey - it's all "The Way Look Tonight". Sorta.

I've looked around for more info on Reed and can't find any. Agreed, a very grabbing player.

And played sunny solos... And their hearts were full of spring. And whatever else was in the bloodstream at the time.

Don't remember much, but iirc, the story was recounted by Red in the liner notes to a Muse album he put out in the 70s. Really wish I could remember more, but... Not a surprise, really. Most of the old school cats were much into singers, songs, lyrics, the whole thing. They were wise.

Y'all laugh, but on one of the bit-torrent sites there was briefly (very briefly) available a private tape of Monk running through "Yesterday" and commenting on how it was the same changes as "Confirmation".

I was playing a gig in Vegas in 1981 and saw a TV commercial that Tony Bennett did for the Chamber of Commerce (or something like it). He was backed by his usual trio, but added to the group was Harold Land, who played quietly under Bennett's reading of the script. I guess that Harold did that gig for a little while.

Perhaps, but not necessarily...
