The Octet found a great way to save on rooms when they traveled...

Yeah, but it didn't make it ALL the way out...

Any similarities to (the several years later) Rob & Laura Petrie are probably NOT coincidental.

has her hands full!

Hair & Wardrope by Butch of Beverly Hills.

Guess whose career went down the toilet after she refused to sleep w/Joe McCarthy?

Why do I use my chair as a chastity belt? Because...

COOL!

Hmmmm.....tell me more....

The invisible but not inaudible hand of Duke Pearson is all over this puppy too, in terms of the grooves and the textures. Honestly, I don't really care for FANCY FREE or ELECTRIC BYRD all that much. Just not much "there" there for me. But KOFI has it to spare. Shoulda been released in it's time, imo.

Totally dittoey.

I used to think that Mr. Acker Bilk & Bent Fabric (both then known to me only by Atlantic inner sleeves) were psychedelic rock bands. How else to explain those names?

I'll EASILY take Kofi over the other sessions that were done and released duting the same time. Like Lon said, a keeper. Definitely.

Only if we pay attention to it...

"The band requests that you turn 45 degrees to your right if you insist on standing like that."

Hey, it takes two to tango! Homegirl looks like she knows that corner pretty well...

That it actually IS the most, positively?

I've been looking for an excuse to get that Ford thing...

Once upon a time, it was a pretty good rock magazine, well written and musically astute, at least in its own range of coverage. LOTS of Lester Bangs stuff to be found there. Look for them in your local used magazine emporium. It's worth it.

"would you like to buy Claudine Longet's tail?"

There is no longer a forum. You can write reviews, and they'll post them, but watch out - I wrote a few praising the album in question but also rather strongly urging the reissue of more of the same artist's material, and they got yanked quicker than The Beatles' Butcher Cover. It's a colorful site, kinda neat visually, and lots of sound samples, but it's TOTALLY corporate. However, A&M records has a forum...

Darn... Well, the altoist's tone REALLY sounds like Sonny fortune to me, but the recording quality doesn't match up with the period when Fortune starting recording prolificly, at least not that I know of. So...I'm stumped. HATE it when that happens!

Don't remember exactly. '77 or '78, I think. Maybe '79. Played w/Prime Time, and it ROCKED. Milton Berle was the host. Don't know if this is still the case, but when the original cast episodes first went into sydication and were made available for retail sale, this was the one episode that ws witheld, due to Berle's incessant and obnoxious hamming and piss-poor adlibbing. Vintage Uncle Miltie is a treat in it's own way, but this is not pretty. Too bad that Ornette got caught in the middle. Betty Carter was on in either the first or second season, and THAT was something to both see and hear. Hope that gets included, as well as the first appearance by Elvis Costello. Hell, the ENTIRE Ray Charles as host show should come out in a separate volume. THAT was some shit! Now, when is NIGHT MUSIC going to be made available?

Sorry, I guess I remembered your e-mail address and transposed the "s". My bad. Do you have any of those albums Leo Wright did w/Oscar Castro-Neves? I'm wondering if this might not be from one of those. The alto tone suggests Wright, or even Robin Kenyatta. The studio and piano sounds suggest Atlantic, but I find nothing in their catalog to lead any further.
