In a perfect world all those Tito Rodriguez TV shows would be collated and put in a deluxe box set (if they exist to that extent). There's some gold there. .

They need a union/guild/whatever. Then there can be a standard contract dealing with after-market considerations.

How does an artist become eligible to be covered by this law?

I am following MLB daily, if not watching with any regularity. Yet. Brewers are making me happy though!

Remember how The Rhythm & Blues Foundation mounted legal actions that resulted in some of the 50s greats getting paid respectable amounts for unpaid back royalties? But it seems like that would be apples and pears to compare crooked record companies and bad faith contracts to shrewd art buyers/investors, no? Unless, again, there was something in the original terms of sale. Maybe those guys need a union.

Maybe...but royalties are usually part of a contract or else are retroactively awarded via lawsuit. Was this a class action lawsuit, or just one artist, or what, exactly? Who does it impact going forth?

It sounds like a form of royalty payment. But is this ever a precondition of sale?

Ok, I still got all of the quartets, in order, on to three CDs (1-2, 3-4, 5-7). Maybe they didn't program it like that because 1 & 2 are sort of "student-y", relatively speaking? I get it, but still...

Rivers was later, much later, in the 2010s. He was working with John Murphy. That deal was to have one "repertoire" concert one semester and then a "new music" concert the next. Sam performed one night and then gave a clinic the next. I drove up for both because, hey, Sam Rivers. The others might have been before you arrived. Some were there for the Spring Lab Band Extravapalooza, others just for one-off "workshops". I very much recall that Clare Fischer brought along his chart for Lennie's Pennies, but I forget who played bass sax on it. But Gary Foster was there to add some flavor, which he did. No Warne, though... Oh yeah, one more I remember was Ran Blake, who did a quick hit-and-run. He was just starting his Third Stream Deparment at NEC(?) and was barnstorming music schools looking for recruits. AFAIR, not luck at NT!

Yeah, yammoe be on that toot suite!?!

The Wergo is a 3-CD set that presents the quartets non-sequentially which is not my preference. So I'm ripping and rebuilding to have it my way. Performances seem really frisky, so this is going to be fun!,

He made a good record with Don Patterson,and another good/crazy one with Freddie Hubbard. I mean, he's almost totally Joe Henderson, but with the integrity of his own sound. Plus he was in Bob Rosengarten Dick Cavett band and he was often seen wailing away - on camera - fairly often But the...whatever happened happened.

Ok, I'm not about to claim that the Carter set is anything even remotely like "the only Carter Quartets set you'll ever need" or anything like that. But it's still a good rewarding listen if you can get past the horrid (imo) early-digital sound. The group had a history with Carter, and they worked with him directly on these recordings. So...attention should be paid, imo. Summer With The Juilliard String Quartet will be concluding with the Ergo collection of the Hindemith Quartets. Totally uncharted territory for me, should be fun!

I kinda really liked him when he was a rowdyass tenor player. Since then, not so much. Oh well. No disputing the virtuosity.

Oh MY!!!!

FWIW It stayed in print long after Clark's other BNs. Not at all hard to find in a good record store over the years.

Hello!

Yeah, humidity would be my biggest concern. And welcome back, Brandon. It's been a quick minute or two!

Listen to what's good for you, the song says.

This record changed my whole life, no exaggeration. https://www.letras.com/eddie-palmieri/oyelo-que-te-conviene/english.html

A true giant has left us. Left us behind, yes. But also left us an incredibly rich and varied legacy. https://www.npr.org/2025/08/06/1197084433/eddie-palmieri-latin-jazz-legend-has-died
