  1. read some of her other stuff and was nicely surprised to find out that keun wasn't only my favorite author's ex (joseph roth's) but a very good auhor in her own right
  2. "free entrance for customers of the hypovereins-bank!" first time i've seen this type of thing! have a great concert!
  3. try this one... http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseact...logID=445684506 or go to http://www.myspace.com/joelfass listen to the wonderful rendition of "last night when we were young" and then click on the blog...
  4. (haven't heard him say it but i guess this comes pretty close to the "correct" pronounciation) That's part of the joke - Mom is German. ah... actually, one thing i have been thinking about for weeks now is how to explain the pronounciation of "r" to an english speaking person
  5. (haven't heard him say it but i guess this comes pretty close to the "correct" pronounciation)
  6. so it might include this entry from noal cohen's discography...
  7. another surprising (to me) find (1953!) Zoot Sims Quintet Zoot Sims (ts) Chester Slater (org) Lord Westbrook (g) Peck Morrison (b) Tim Kennedy (d) NYC, January 23, 1953 431 There I've Said It Again Prestige 852, PREP 1306 432 Jaguar - 433 Dream Prestige PREP 1306 434 Baby, Please Come Home - * Zoot Sims With Organ Atomosphere (Prestige PREP 1306) * Zoot Sims - There I've Said It Again c/w Jaguar (Prestige 852)
  8. how is it? i don't usually buy lovano albums either but this one caught my interest... (forgot the details but isn't some guy who once had freddie webster and tadd dameron (as well as lovano's dad or dameron's brother... completely forgot the details) in his cleveland band doing the arrangements...?
  9. i wouldn't really hesitate, just travel with a second pair of shoes; you may experience some rain or snow but the chance that the wheather will keep you from doing anything on your list is pretty small... remember that seasons tend to be not that extreme overhere (the one thing i can say from own experience is that chicago in april was much more problematic touristically than bruxelles in february)

    here is a copy of enfin for 8 euro plus shipping... http://cgi.ebay.de/CD-LOU-BENNETT-ENFIN-Bm...%3A1|240%3A1318 edit to add it's gone now...
  11. thought i'd mention that this month zweitausendeins has the ucla, america sessions and paris 1964 double cds for 9,99 euro each... (have ordered ucla so far but i guess i'll get the others as well...)
  12. i would say the old feedback system was definitely flawed in that respect... if a seller gets a negative feedback what reason does he have not to give a negative feedback back? (none i'd say) so a negative feedback in the old days only meant the person had been involved in a screwed up transaction but it didn't say who was the victim so it was a bit unfair restricting feedback to the buyers is of course problematic as well but since the seller can at least wait until he got the money with sending the item i'd say it's a better solution (maybe separating buyer and seller feedback would be an option as well... haven't thought about this)
  13. a friend told me yesterday derivatives and banking will be back the way we know them 10 years from now but consulting firms like mckinsey will collapse next and never come back (and late last week i spoke to a guy who had graduated in financial engineering that day... he said he had always thought anybody trying to use the stuff he learned in practice must be completely crazy... )
  14. could have been this thread? http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=35545

  16. the two wilen discs arrived this morning safely and in fine condition (and at this price they pretty much feel like a donation ) thank you very much! (have already played the dièse 440 - not my favorite barney but i am almost certain i like it much better than you did... now getting started with moshi)
  17. Thank you, Dave James! Well, maybe for a newbie it´s a bit hard to seek out the substantial informations. As about Hank Mobley, I´ve been looking for quite a long time for some informations. The strangest one was about what I think was his very last performance at the Angry Squire in NY just a short time before he died. I know he was present at a BlueNote anniversary but didn´t perform. At least I would have liked to know if there are photos from him, from that occasion. last thing that i had on my mind before falling asleep last night (dreaming of a marvelous cd, looked liked a bheki mseleku album but with a different photo, i also saw the band live, lots of percussion and a great saxophone player i didn't recognize, not hank, different story) very ironic... the incident you mention appears in an adaption in the final passage of helge schneider's movie "jazz club" when the basketball playing hobo ("people must think i am nuts that i always walk around town dribbling this ball, but you know, basketball is my life") remembers that he once was the great jazz musician earl mobileh (who the jazz band (which includes jimmy woode on bass) who is now on the same space ship as him had always admired and hoped to meet some day) the irony is, that from your post i am almost certain you will not enjoy that movie that said, there are plenty of mobley threads, some of which contain more information than others... one thing is apparently there really are gaps in people's knowledge, another thing is, that aric/chewy, easily the world's greatest mobley enthusiast (hope i don't step on anyone's toes with this) prefers to ask stupid-looking questions (instead of letting out his knowledge of details which must be massive by now) don't have time to check whether these three here are clean but maybe you feel like trying http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=40576 http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=34381 http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=1746
  18. Jimmy Gourley is also on Lou Bennett's first French LP "Amen". Not sure what you mean about Thomas not being one of those cool guitarists. I don't have a contra opinion, just don't understand what you're getting at. MG i'd guess he means thomas is a bit too much django/percussive/whatever to belong into the "cool jazz" bag of raney/bauer/farlow... gourley is also on the grappelli jazz in paris disc with louiss (and i guess he counts as a "cool" guitar player so that's an answer to my question) but then there is something about louiss that makes me see him a bit apart from most other organists, can't put it into words but i almost feel like seeing him as some sort of strange accordion player... how about clark terry with patton on that grassella oliphant album, johnny coles on am i blue, leo wright on that mcduff album and with gloria coleman...
  19. i wouldn't put that on a too high priority, imho the three (?) tracks with patton are pretty good (not better) and the rest is not thrilling at all (ah, but the album has julian priester so that's an additional organ date for him)
  20. he's also on a don patterson album (one from the dem new york dues twofer) and somewhere on this board it was said he's also the uncredited tenor player on reuben wilson's the cisco kid
  21. anyone else have this issue that the first second or so is missing and that afterwards all tunes begin a second before the "number mark" on the cd... silly, but i am really thinking about getting another version, too...
  22. some more Sonny Criss with Arvanitas on his jazz in paris disc (and with Roy Porter, has anyone heard of anyone who owns this?) Barney Wilen's Inside Nitty Gritty (without checking his discography) Stan Getz with Eddy Louiss Eddy Louiss had some more unusal partners, Michel Petrucciani, Richard Galliano, Stephane Grappelli did any of those "cool jazz" guitar players, raney, farlow, smith, bauer, galbraith... ever record with organ? (btw, wasn't ray crawford also on some jimmy smith albums?) joe henderson didn't do that many organ dates either (unity, brown sugar, leaving this planet...)? hutcherson with organ is also "this is billy mitchell" iirc, isn't lem winchester also on the shirley scott album that has oliver nelson (called "seven up"?) Thad Jones on Johnny Hammond Smith Open House is another rarity Clifford Jordan on his own Soul Fountain i count three organ dates for Johnny Griffin (Grab this, Body and Soul (bootleg with Lou Bennett, Soul Groove) did Dexter Gordon do more than the Session with Don Patterson that's on the Lost Sessions Conn? how about Richard Williams on Patton's the Way I Feel? (edit to add: hadn't seen the focus was on SIDEMAN... (the classical missing of stuff that's in capitals) most of what i wrote still qualifies though...)
  23. isn't there a howard mcghee album with organ ("nobody knows you when you're down and out")? (mcpherson is also on another patterson album, funk you but maybe that's it, or is he on some early 70s Mainstream album with organ...) isn't donald byrd on the lou bennett jazz in paris disc (only as an arranger? i always skip the first half of the disc and proceed to the trio tracks...) James Anderson is the JA... he also plays on a Gloria Coleman album and on Jimmy Ponder's Jump (and afaik he didn't record otherwise so afaik he always recorded with organ) abercrombie recorded with organ quite a bit afaik (at least one jeff palmer cd and he also recorded a number of albums under his own name with dan wall on ecm (four or five i guess) maybe Booker Ervin with Don Patterson counts...
  24. paris in the late 60s produced dozens of those unusual combinations... (by memory i'd say pan-african festival wasn't one of them though)... many familiar discs have unusual combinations on them... john zorn or grachan moncur with john patton, mingus or coltrane with ellington, buzz gardner with frank zappa/rene thomas (guess seeing the name a second time is surprising no matter where you see it first), chris mcgregor with nick drake, all those west coast jazzers on tom waits albums, say, shelly manne (iirc) Just did a quick look at what I have handy and Philly Joe Jones appears on at least a Poem for Malcolm, Yasmina a Black Woman (w/ Art Taylor on rhythm logs) and Blase, while Mobley appears on all of these except Blase. Harold Mabern Jr. (p) Cornell Dupree (g) Ron Carter (el-b) Bernard Purdie (d) Nene DeFense (tamb) doesn't read like a archie shepp group either (from cry of my people)... don't know if they are better known for other accomplishments but Chicago Beau and Julio Finn sound like surprise guests on blase as well
