  1. No, but you weren't limiting it to just her. any sort of spoken word within this music perhaps unintentionally broad?
  2. The People Of The Sun note the irony in your use of the phrase "bright young lights" and give you a hard no for not wanting to listen to their fullest voices.
  3. Looks like a rehearsal for the Town Hall gig (that's Hall Overton standing by the door), in which case, start here: Thelonious Monk — piano Donald Byrd — trumpet Eddie Bert — trombone Robert Northern — French horn Jay McAllister — tuba Phil Woods — alto saxophone Charlie Rouse — tenor saxophone Pepper Adams — baritone saxophone Sam Jones — bass Art Taylor — drums Don't think it's an exact match, but there are plenty overlaps. Here's Hall, y'all:
  4. The 66 is the icon, but let's not kid ourselves into thinking it was the only entry: The dude was a pretty decent pitcher, actually. Quite respectable career.
  5. From the new New Music String Quartet box: an invigorating presentation, with the additional (and very stealth!) bonus inclusion of the band's work with Artie Shaw from this record:
  6. Last night's nightcap:
  7. Yeah, definitely remembered here. RIP to those ears, and to the rest of him.
  8. Yes, kudos to Tommy. I've done several transactions with him over the last 6(?) months or so and all have gone flawlessly.
  9. My mom made them from scratch. Brenda does too, only better than Mom. And I don't say that lightly. I'm a mashed potato snob, especially since I really don't like potatoes too much (with a dad of german heritage, he had to have them at EVERY meal. Mom was a product of south Louisiana, so she had to sneak the rice in on us, pick your spots - not spatz - . so come correct with 'em or leave 'em be.
  10. Beatles fans who care about the details need this. The White Album in mono...it's different often enough to be noticeably different. Butnot just that one.
  11. https://www.discogs.com/label/332676-Modern-American-Music-Series?sort=year&sort_order Looks like a continuous run from 1953-1963, then the repackaging sets in. But things pick up again in 1974 and 1976. Has there been any collective packaging of either run of this series, or both? That would be a package I would jump on all over itself!
  12. Thank you Sony (or whoever you are not) for including the full LP in the new New Music String Quartet box, even though the NMSQ is not on half of it (this LP). In particular, the Lou Harrison Suite for Cello and Harp is splendid! And Capital, Capitals is amusing for the first few listens, although I was left thinking wouldn't it have been a hoot to have this performed by the NMSQ, singing instead of playing, a string quartet for voices. But maybe that's a bit too conceptual.
  13. oh CHEW-y..... Lacy did join Monk's working band for a quick minute, as documented here (and a few other places, in writing, not record). Somebody, maybe Lacy himself, put it like he popped in, got what he needed, and then popped back out. A very honorable tact.
  14. Gotta watch those unabashed jazzheads!
  15. At one time, it was the version, at least per "common wisdom", at least in my world. I know times/tastes change, but it's something I think should be heard. I don't know that times/tastes have changed that much. An iconic cover, too.
  16. and people got sued! https://www.theguardian.com/music/2009/feb/04/rihanna-michael-jackson-manu-dibango https://internetfm.com/song-of-the-day-soul-makossa-by-manu-dibango/
  17. Arthur Prysock took the hurt away.
  18. Sonny did one for Pioneer, iirc. Wanting to say that Miles did one for some motorcycle company? do we count the series of Ella for Memorex? The most memorable of them all, though, imo:
