  1. How does anybody not like at least one Jeanne Lee record? The Viennese bicentennial thing is lost on me... what's that all about?

    Wow, and unsurprisingly, looks like somebody else has already done the heavy lifting for Gordyorgie, and not exactly recently. https://www.prestomusic.com/jazz/products/8540987--bill-english https://www.prestomusic.com/jazz/products/8516938--dave-burns https://www.prestomusic.com/jazz/products/8533844--warming-up I like "Slippers" more than just a little!
  4. What did he do when he wasn't recording? Seems like he did the Apollo gig, maybe?
  5. Why did Hodier record on violin with the pseudonym "Claude Laurence"? Was he trying to pass or something?

    Too bad they couldn't go ahead and also steal the Bill English Vanguard LP to go with it. Burns is on that one as well. Oh, wait, there were TWO Dave Burns LPs on Vanguard. Where's the other one? Has nobody in, like, Japan remastered it yet, is that what we're waiting for?
  8. Played with Mercer in 1947. Went to Europe with Duke in 1950. That's all? Al Killian(tp) Alva McCain(ts) Soren Christensen(vln) Gote Wilhelmson(p) Wendell Marshall(b) Butch Ballard(d) Stockholm, June 4, 1950 Ok, so that's not all: https://www.discogs.com/artist/5333547-Alva-McCain Still, that's a whole helluva not a lot,.

    I was referring to his religious "conversion". Definitely became a non-thing.

  13. Qwest TV (and they've got three channels!) is a pain in the butt with it's commercial interruptions, some worse than other, so I could tell that it was not brand-new. But I really would have expected there to have been some kind of a recording by now. Indie-classical can get really wonky about who gets released by whom, and this is a pretty wonky piece, and in a very provocative way, imo. At leas5t after this one hearing. Not so much the "rap cantata" element nearly as much as the instrumental composing, which caught me ear repeatedly. There should be a record.

    and to be (more than) fair, what I was hearing was a late-70s thing. 40+ years in the past. So maybe long ago it became a non-thing, like Dylan.
  15. I just found it on this AB Fable release of "early bebop" violin. The opening utilizes a highly echoed pizzicato or "chop-bowed" whatever that is called) that is definitely "evocative". It's on Nero's 10" Capitol, but I'm not going there. Here, it is here: https://www.paulneroshotfiddles.com/audio
  16. exotica...do you know a thing by Paul Nero called "Oh, Fiddlesticks"?

    For me, this gets old really quickly, but mileages will no doubt vary.

  19. Does anybody know of a commercially available recording of this? It's on Qwest Classical as a video, but that seems to be it. There's some harmonic stuff going on there that I would like to check out more granularly, but with no record, that will be hard. It's Doud Balliet with Les Arts Florrisants. Any meaningful direction here would be much appreciated!

    Yes, but his debut record was a really, uh...effusive traditional trio record on MPS on which he seemed to want to out Oscar Peterson Oscar Peterson. This was, I think, even before his debit on Pacific Jazz.
