No you're not. That's the ongoing speculation - who is the second alto player? I am hearing Dolphy, based on the tone and a few micro quirks in the playing. Check it out a 1:56

You should watch Closed Captioning on TV... "unfluenced" = giving birth to, thus them coming out of him. What nobody talks about is all the afterbirths. But there they were!!!

You should sometimes, It's a pretty good movie!

Spitzy Mitzy Pretzelbaun - Patooie!!!

Yep.

Dolphy is my candidate.

Here's wishing you good buying of commodities in the marketplace of commercial objects!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorta, but not really: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_recording#:~:text=July 11%2C 1979%3A The first,built by the 3M corporation. Those first Denon PCM were several years earlier. Jazz! And other...

So the way to get people away from their compartmentalized tastes is to give the new/more compartments to play with? Hmmm.... Came across this bit from Percival Everett's new novel James : "...we must let the whites be the ones who name the trouble." "And why is that?" I asked. (She) said, "because they need to know everything before us . Because they need to name everything." Because they need to name everything. Measure everything. Put a price on everything. Own everything. Sell everything. Soul becomes commodity. No. Please don't do that. Please stop doing that. I refuse to play along with that sick game. I will not hear genre, I for damn sure will not hear style. I will hear music. Period As best as I'm able, anyway.

When was that, and where? I love Louis Jordan, but his mass popularity was far behind him by the time of the modern jazz festivals. Was it something that Johnny Otis was booking? Didn't Jordan and Otis do business together for a minute or two in the late 60s?

Sorry to hear that. Just the opposite up here. But I take nothing for granted when it comes to past return being a guarantee of future performance....

Swingin' Sammy Spliff - Hey!!!

My parole officer insists on dye. Work with me on this one, please. I talked my way out of the last one, but there ain't gonna be no next time.

See what you think. I know it's not Willie Smith. But I do hear Dolphy. Still early Dolphy, but if this is LA 1954...that sound....

And then clams at the bowling alley? I'd make that trip, for sure!

Not sure that a Muslim name due to a religious conversion counts as a "stage name"?

Such a well-spoken speaking!!!! Nothing but kudos!!!!!!

Ok, maybe my call moved things along, maybe not. But the order has now shipped! That phone call was just...amateur. I expect that level of slackdom in-store, like Rod says, it's a record store. But a business with 5(?) locations in 2(?) states conducting on-line commerce should be prepared to project competence and competency with unseen customers. Such was not the case here. But all's well that ends well. I've gotten spoiled/lucky with Dusty Groove. Those guys are great on the phone! And I know- what even is a phone call?

Have ever had them mail anything to you? That seems to be the wrinkle here. I placed the order last night, and at 3 PM today, they had no idea what I was talking about about. 15+ minutes on hold before they even began to figure it out. But my card has already been charged! Ok, orders come in overnight. Pull them first thing in the AM. You don't have to pack and mail right away, just get them off the damn shelf. You've gotten paid, so that should be the least you can do. Maybe they have their act more together than they present. I certainly hope so, because "we'll get to it when we get to it and if somebody else beats you to it, sorry, we'll get you a refund - when we get to it. In the meantime, we've got your money but we can't guarantee that you'll get your product" is not a good customer-facing look for any business. Mail order is not for everybody, business and consumer. I think that in the case of me and Josey Records, that's the case for both of us.

A statement like this is kind of annoying to me (nothing personal). I have spent the better part of my life trying to learn all these "labels" with the aim of being able to forget them. I like to be fluent in music, not labels. Genres exist of course, but the goal of fluency is to enjoy the music itself, not the genre, and especially not the labels. It's language first, product second. There. Everything else is business.

Ok...so my card has been charged but my item is still out on the for sale. What's to keep somebody from buying it out from under me? Apparently nothing. What happens then? They issue a refund. When? When they get around to pulling my order and see that it's gone. How long will that take? It depends, calls like mine slow everybody down. So customers slow you down? Yeah. That's what the man said . He also said that this happens with all stores. I had to correct him on that since I've been doing mail order with Dusty Groove for decades now and never had that happen. When you order an item, it6 flagged as unavailable both online and in-house. He did not seem to be impressed. I definitely was not impressed. Slackers.

Interesting,thanks!

I have that LP on Federal 10". It doesn't have the vocal though. Who was that singer?

Jazz In Silhouette

You should hear Spaulding in the 50s with Sun Ra. He was hardly a baby when he started showing up on Blue Note!
