  1. He filled a need and initially was welcome. Miles heard the trio misxing it up behind him and said, hey, why don't you do that with me? They said, oh, you want that? Ok! By the time it was over, I've heard that Herbie and Tony were grumbling about Coleman not pushing anything past what he did. Apparently Miles agreed, because when Wayne came available, Miles snatched him right up! I enjoy the band with George, but it is very pleasant, but just a little predictable. That's not a dis on George either, just...band dynamics.
  2. Coleman filled his role, He played choruses, Overall, I don't think his role was either constrained or expanded.
  3. Did Don Schlitten use that cover as a model for his Xanadu Gold series? Sure looks like it?
  4. The movie and my enjoyment of it repulsed her. In real time. There was nobody else.
  5. Started out holding hands, but she was pulled as far away from me as possible by the time it was over
  6. Mini Millie Creeler - Throw ' Em Stuff They Can't Hit And Then Let Them Hit It!!!
  7. Elvinella Pitch - Slower And Drier!!!
  8. You can't go wrong with Max. Add in KD, Booker Little, Hank, Clifford Jordan, Sonny, The Turrentine brothers, etcetcetc. Solid Solid Solid
  9. It gives insight (for me) into how that edition of the Herd could handle being booked into a Black club (and I'm sure they occasionally did, one-nighters and dance gigs being what they were). Certainly not "Black" themselves, but they got the flayvah and don't at all have an unfamiliar/uncomfortable vibe. And if the club had a B-3 as house equipment, hey...Nat Pierce could deal with that.
  10. It reminded me of one of the acid trips I had taken, in a good way. I took a date to see it, and that was a one-and-done. Not even food afterward. Nope. Straight home.
  11. After the previous days' doses of Beethoven, it took me 24+ hours to be able to play the Dvorak more than a few minutes without making myself take it off. It just seemed so light, so simple so....silly. But I know better, so I did other things before putting it back on. And then the palate was about 97% clear. Close enough. Of course, it's a delightful piece, but I think another group might be more temperamentally suited for it. I have a few, so I'll go back at some point to listen to the different interpretations. The Wolfe piece, otoh, could be subtitled "Fun With Harmony", for the way it keeps slipping around without actually going off the rails. I know Wolfe for his songs, but if this is any indication, more research would be a good thing! Check it out:
  12. As the MLC tournament rolls on, there have been a LOT of super-tight matches going down to the wire. I've yet to miss a match. Compelling sports!!!
  13. Gurp Handen - Gurp Calling!!!
  14. Never worked a gig like that. Thank God!
  15. That's a good record. NP:

    Sonny had retirement forced on him. But that coul happen to anybody, so yean - carpe diem!
  17. Joe Cocker, Thom Bell, Cyndi Lauper, and Soundgarden all made marks. And although I totally get Carol Kaye's point...she definitely made her mark.
