  3. Agreed. Well said. I too have been wondering about her health. I wish her the best. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Haven't listened to Miles in a very long time. so.... Miles Davis - Black Beauty (Miles at Fillmore West)
  4. I think my father had about 15 years on you, but you were close. His era was WWII through the mid 60's with Jazz. He was a Purple Heart Navy Man in WWII, so a brave dude in my humble opinion. He came out of the war loving Big Band Jazz and continued through to the 50's Trio and Quartet stars of Jazz and then on into the 60's era artists. He didn't move on from that. All of his collection spans the late 30's to the early 60's, mostly 45s. I inherited his vast collection and my goal is, probably when I retire, to convert all of his 45s to digital. That will be a huge task, but it will be worth while. --------------------------------------------------------- Love this album and Joni in general. I heard a funny comment about Joni by John Pizzarelli on his radio show "Radio Deluxe" (available on Mixcloud). He played one of her golden cuts from the Madison Square Garden concert and after he played it, he said something like, "Ya' know, the Canadians hold the Trump card with Joni. We can play anything we want, and they just play some Joni Mitchell and say "How aBoot That?" ---------------------------------------------------------------- Night cap gents. Then I'm turning in.

  6. I would have LOVED to have been there and to have SEEN these guys play together..... but then I say that with most classic Jazz albums I play. I envy my parents. My father was into Jazz when it was popular and live performances were hot. He and my mother went to many live performances of the great ones.
