So, is Uptown planning a sequel to the Bird/Diz album?

Lana Cantrell Vicki Carr Butch Trucks

Yeah, like Miles told Trane...

Don't get me started on the lack of critical thinking ability (or the lack of desire to develop it or the recognition of its importance) across the board in America today. Of course, I could make the point in terms of politics, but that's subjective, and that's not what I mean. Dig - I initiated a quality control measure at my straight job that requires people who are removing mortgage payments from envelopes to actually look at the checks (and payment coupons) and sort them according to whether or not the amounts of the check and coupon are identical or different. Simple, right? Nooooo......... America is a nation of self-satisfied slopeheads who know how to do nothing but gluttonously consume any kind of rancid intellectual putrification that is splattered on their plate. That and play with gadgets. We can work them gadgets, baby. Anything beyond that and it's a nuisance. We're fucked, that's what we are.

Tomatobluenote made intimations sever years ago that BN had worked out a deal with the Brown estate to release this legitimately, but nothing ever came of it. FWIW, in the form that I have the Norfolk/Richmond gig (which is it, or are there two separate entities?), it's about a CD and a half...

Donna Rice Petie Wheatstraw Erich Korngold

Sounds like material that I've always heard was from Norfolk, not Richmond, Va. If that's waht it is, then look out - Brownie's on fire!

Which one of you MFs beat me to the Randy Weston Destry Rides Again LP?

Or "Honess" if it's a girl. "Honess Alphasia", it's got a ring to it. But then again, she'd run the risk of being called "Your Royal Honess", and that could cause problems. So forget about that!

Was it a sperm whale? Swimming upstream is what sperm do!

How come nobody names their kids "Honus"? I'm thinking that "Honus Ray" would be a badass name to lay on a kid. "Hone Ray" would not be somebody to trifle with!

"Boots Remler" - now thare's a character waiting to be invented...

I'm a selfish bastard who doesn't give a fuck. Amazing how much that helps to take the pressure off...

That Both Sides Now album of standards they did together was very nice, imo. Klein's arrangements recalled Riddle at his very best/deepest (w/just a touch of Jenkins thrown in), and Joni read the lyrics w/o any affectation. Really good stuff. Of course, it is a vocal album and it does have strings...

Yep. Firewall was enabled, but somehow not for that site. Seek and you find...

Yep, firewall issue. Never mind.

Might be a firewall issue.

Yeah, did that, on the second page. That's what takes me to the uplaod page.
