Philipp Freiherr von Boeselager, RIP
Niko replied to GA Russell's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
don't think it would have made much of a difference, he should have been shot like in 1934 or 1939 at the latest - always had difficulties to really appreciate the Stauffenberg group, i mean, they died for what was essentially a good thing, but i don't think they (mainly) did it for the right reasons (stop the holocaust, prevent ww2 from happening); it was rather that they were shocked at how madly hitler organized his war (a thing which shouldn't actually suprise anyone who heard hitler talk for more than 30 seconds - the guy was obviously mad) -
wasn't jimmy bond the other bassist? (and isn't he famous... another Chet Baker connection btw...; Jimmy Bond played only the record date as Lewis had left shortly before that one, he never was a regular member. Chewy is a big fan of Daniel Jackson and knows him personally. Jackson wrote most of the arrangements on both Four Souls albums - a great talent. I can't see why he didn't make it bigger ... another daniel jackson fan here, attended some of his piublic workshops when i was sixteen );don't really know how to express my admiration for him, but it's really really great; very similar discussion in this older thead http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=39275 but i'd like to point out again this great interview (and mention he has four cds on cdbaby) http://musicandculture.blogspot.com/2007/1...diego-jazz.html why he didn't make it bigger... guess he was 5 years to young, he could have avoided some substances (and riverside disappeared...)

according to this site http://www.rocknroll.freeserve.co.uk/july.htm (and maybe also according to his japanese wikipedia entry) he died in 1990

wasn't jimmy bond the other bassist? (and isn't he famous... another Chet Baker connection btw...; concerning big names daniel jackson said he took over harold land's spot in the four souls...) Sleet is also on one Shelly Manne album iirc another fan of all members here...

well then "many of you" should realize that CDs have been around for 20+ years now and adapt yourselves to the current reality. all of us grew up having to sit through commercials on TV too, but it doesn't take long with a DVR (or a VCR) to realize you can fast forward through them. do you walk out of concerts after 20 minutes also? you don't want to know how often i've tried to fastforward commercials while watching ordinary tv... not much to add, i prefer 40 minutes and 7 tunes but if the artist has good reasons to deviate that's fine with me... if cds are much longer however for me they often lose the album feel and rather feel like a bunch of music (nothing wrong with that, badly described), for older jazz i like the idea of listening to one session at a time...

IT'S A GIRL, YAY!!!!! (Pt. II!)
Niko replied to Jim Alfredson's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
congratulations -
oh, names remembered correctly, but wrong label and only vaguely similar design, so not a series... thank you!

!happy birthday!

allmusic says frank gauna...? isn't there at least one other album in a similar design? can't find any but vaguely recall zoot sims or sonny stitt... maybe not...

happy birthday! hope you had a great evening with randy weston yesterday, a fine day today and an even better year to come...

another one, not new orleans though, from www.danieljacksonmusic.com Froebel Brigham, Leon Petties, William Doty, Fred Jackson, Haold Land 1949

Movin' Along features James Clay on flute if I remember correctly... don't have the cd here right now; indeed clay plays flute except on like one track (and montgomery plays electric bass on a number of tunes - maybe that contibutes to the weird sound as well...)
-
from the track list it looks a lot (but not exactly - round about midnight...) like the fine riverside album movin along
