anyone else find it cute how they use photoshop to erase the original label names from the original covers when reprinting them...

talking about roditi, one very fine album with a three or four horn frontline on a number of songs is vitor assis brasil's 1969 album trajeto which is currently available very cheaply, assis brasil is a very interesting alto player and roditi has some nice solos, too (his first and only session for a number of years to come (?))

James Moody / Kenny Barron - Fly me to the moon got this lonehill twofer of two james moody argo albums a few weeks ago and strongly recommend it... the first album, comin' on strong features moody, barron, chris white on bass, rudy collins on drums (gillespie's rhythm section) and the highly interesting guitar player george eskridge (i see he is also on one of sam lazar's argo albums... hope that one becomes available, too) this is the best moody album i've heard so far besides return from overbrook... the second album is pretty interesting as well moody and barron plus four musicians from chicago including paul serrano on trumpet...

stumbled across a konitz discography on the web, didn't know one existed so i thought i'd post the link... http://www.press.umich.edu/pdf/0472115871-discography.pdf

anouar brahem has several trio recordings with oud and piano or bass... (like oud, piano accordion or oud, saxophone, bass) http://www.anouarbrahem.com/

of what i've heard (the savoy albums with coltrane, the stardust album, lateef's other sounds) i like the quartet album "the king and i" best... my favorite trumpet quartet album iirc (well there are other favorite trumpet quartet albums, tolliver..., but they are quite different atmospherically)

cool! looking forward to that record even more then... can't watch it from work, but is that him? Yes, that's him! However did you find that, Nico? Thanks, I shall be sending that on to other friends. found it via google... actually searching directly on youtube is often enough more effective; like, searching dircectly on youtube i found a second clip of that band featuring your friend

if i get you're problem correctly (which means many had it before): sounds like you entered organissimo via google which prefers to watch threads this way... click on options in the upper right corner of the first post in any thread. a menu opens and you have to pick "Switch to: Standard" under display modes...

what do you think about thom jurek? ( he sure meant well http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&a...10:dzfrxqqhldke )

cool! looking forward to that record even more then... can't watch it from work, but is that him?

Interesting! Is that the one with my old friend Danny Padmore on bass? that's the one! had never heard of it, always thought "ray warleigh's first album" was his only one and was pretty excited to see there was another album, and even on cd for a nice price... http://www.amazon.co.uk/One-Way-Tommy-Chas...2180&sr=8-1 it's not yet here but i will pay special attention to the bass playing

welcome to the board! (enjoyed your text "on the road at 18" tremendously yesterday!) don't have the tapsctt bio, but steven isoardi's other book the dark tree... there it says thinking about it, the story doesn't quite make sense (at least in the details) - tapscott arriving at the studio expecting to meet the guys he'd been hanging out with the other night, noticing other guys being there and then somehow getting Everett Brown on board... (btw, Ray Darper was a Tapscott man, too, iirc)

happy birthday!!!

got the select this morning and played the three albums i didn't own yet (the way i feel, oh baby, that certain feeling) twice, the others once... along came john i still don't quite get but the other two of the early albums i liked a lot better, especially the way i feel, love the front line of richard williams and fred jackson... understanding sounds as good as ever but for me the real surprise in this set was that certain feeling... much more open than i would have expected... or whatever [the message: get the select, you won't find that certain feeling elsewhere on cd and the price you'd mostly have to pay for the way i feel or oh baby is really high compared to the price of the select...]

happy birthday

rip time to link to his excellent oral history interview by steven isoardi again...

ordered Yoch'ko Seffer / Siegfried Kessler "Play Ellington" Tommy Chase / Ray Warleigh featuring Jon Eardley "One way" and (my first mosaic...) just found a copy of the john patton select at a local store, 40 euro... guess the price was ok but not great ,thought getting around the trouble with customs and shipping and waiting is also worth something...

link fixed: http://www.alexanderhawkins.com/blog.html wow to you playing with ray warleigh! (only now his recordings with nick drake which i treasure... guess that's the type of gig a jazz musician doesn't want to be identified with in the first place... but still...) saw a performance of one of stockhausen's electronic pieces which were performed with speakers in all corners of the room so the seats in the middle were best, came late and only got a seat in the front row so i sat directly opposite stockhausen himself for the two hours... he wasn't joe maini but he did have a scary aura...

This is the chap for whom Ravel wrote the concerto, I believe. [There were various other relatively well-known commissions for Wittgenstein as well!] AFAIK Paul Wittgenstein never performed the concerto Ravel had written for him ... see my post above, guess you're confusing it with the concerto prokofiev wrote for wittgenstein from wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piano_Concert...and_%28Ravel%29

we did have several such threads actually, http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=9122 but this is not the one i remembered

tonight i dreamed i called jim alfredson to order groovadelphia, his wife was on the phone saying "do you know what time it is?", i thought about it for a moment and noticed that in america it was still in the middle of the night (and felt very bad about waking up the children), so i ordered groovadelphia and the two other organissimo cds... guess on friday i'll know a bit more about who will pay me what in the next one and half years... will place an order soon...(at least if friday's results are half decent)
