  1. This is a good record.
  2. Golf & The Putters- The 18 Holes Of Love
  3. So Shohei's contract allows him to opt out if GM/ ownership changes hands? THAT'S historic!
  4. Gotta be honest, I never got the "mystique", not even on the Sandy's Album... stuff, and especially not on the Extra Mohawk stuff. But she had it, so there. RIP.
  5. I think it actually was a working band, a road band. That accounts for those tempos and those ballads, perfect for playing dances!
  6. definitely the sound of a working band. ❀️ πŸ‘πŸ†—πŸ¦ΎπŸ‘οΈβ€πŸ—¨οΈ
  7. Cool! I was hoping that somebody here would have familiarity.
  8. 1972 live dates, but I question the full accuracy of the personnel on "Perception", unless Bill Hardman turned into Woody Shaw and Dave Schnitter decided to play soprano... Also gotta wonder about the 1972 date in general, just because. No matter, it's a pretty good record anyway!
  9. Boralla Peckitt - Please Relax!!!
  10. Stumbled across these on Bandcamp today. They sounded intriguing and the samples did as well, so I bought them:
  11. RIP. Such a rich musical life!
  12. We were a Lutheran family, the only one in Gladewater. We went to church in (and played football against) Kilgore.
  13. Horns, and horn players who had/saw a chance to be more than band nerds Possibly. And quiet as it's been kept...the were a few people who were stealthily writing marching band arrangements of a few of the "new" big band covers of the hits of the day. But this wasn't anything new, really. Our marching band had Maynard's "Eli's Coming" but we also had a legacy chart if Quincy's Basie chart of "I Can't Stop Loving You". We're playing this shit at football games and everybody's grooving along with it, rednecks, Baptists, Methodists, Black Folks, everybody. Small town Texas Friday night football in the first days of full integration. Nothing like it, at least not then. And especially in the band hall. EVERYBODY brought their records in. Horns!

    who's jane fielding?

    ???? James Harrod says otherwise?
  15. I still have my Steady Eddie. I think?
  16. No, see, that's not enough. That's just Savoy records (and missing Motivation which is damn near lost today, I guess they didn't have anything to steal it from...). There is more, especially if you wiggle in a few sideman dates (esp w/Ted Curson).
  17. Bingo. Wherever you had lab bands you had trombone sections, and wherever you had trombone sections you had trombone player, and wherever you had that combination, you had that record being sold. Let the record show that MWR was produced by Bill Watrous and... John Hammond!!! The only Watrous album I really love is his Avant-Musakjazz record: But I do love the Pro Tip he allegedly gave before saying such things would get you in trouble (and before he had his own run-in with the law): If you're going to play high, then practice high! Great player, though. Flashy technique, but almost never empty technique.
  18. Blant McHenry - Foosie Foots
  19. Nobody famous as far as I know
  20. Rempo String - How's That Again?
  21. Maybe Mosaic can do their Bill Barron set and just not have it for sale in the U.S.
