here is the quote "She came to New York in her 20s and sang at the Village Vanguard, later marrying jazz and bebop composer Max Roach (they divorced in the 1960s) and starring in several films." maybe a little misleading but actually it only says that both, Roach and Films, happened after New York and Village Vanguard. (though admittedly the writers do sound clueless, "jazz and bebop composer Max Roach"...) whishing them all the best

time to get that one out again, this record was very important to my friends and me when we got into jazz in 10th grade... (no 1 besides Brad Mehldau's Songs) but I haven't heard either in a long time , so much energy in this record... only other Burton I ever heard was a Burton / McPherson Duo Live Broadcast from Moers from about the same time, which I loved even more, (though I don't think I will ever find that selfmade cassette again) thanks for the reminder! edit to add, i'd leave Wiesbaden, too if i lived there, i think

i think this is one of those "Composer of Walkin" type issues... iirc in Ted Gioias "West Coast Jazz" (or somewhere else) it is said that he overdosed and his roommates/drugmates had no better idea than drive his dead body out into the desert... but i don't know whether that was the last word in this case

sounds like you bought one of those Spanish TimeLife Blue Notes which are on sale at the moment (easy way to check: if your cover is blue instead of yellowish this is the case) some of those are TOCJ (got Grant Green's Talkin About TOCJ this way yesterday) (but not all of these are TOCJs) previous thread: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=1180

Charles Tolliver - Impact (Enja) Tina Brooks - True Blue (used copy of the 1994 conn, maybe not the best idea to buy that now, but an easy way to get a non copy-protected copy at 5,99) Grant Green - Talkin About (if you have a Wohlthat'sche Buchhandlung nearby it may be worth going there, as they have some of the Spanish TimeLife BlueNotes and of the 24Bit remastered Black Lion CDs at 2,99 each)

some of the many club recordings Bill Triglia made (Allen Lowe or maybe someone else mentioned those), i am sure there is some nice Bill Trglia / Tony Fruscella / Dave Schildkraut / Don Joseph in there and maybe someone made live recordings of the Phil Sunkel - Bob Zieff band mentioned in Jack Chambers piece on Bob Zieff (available here http://langtech.dickinson.edu/Sirena/Issue2/Chambers.pdf) (a related reissue would be Dick Wetmore's Bethlehem album which contains essentially the same Zieff compositions as Chet Baker's Paris Zieff album) or maybe a reissue of Lenny McBrowne's albums with Don Sleet on Pacific Jazz and Riverside and the unissued recordings of Don Sleet and Teddy Edwards playing Ornette Coleman that were discussed here earlier

It means i'm all yours It's a line from "L'année dernière à Marienbad", alas just from the play they're watching right at the beginning, and not the line Ms. Seyrig tells to dear ubu... just wondered about your old lines yesterday night when i was waiting at someone's room and looked into Bob Dylan's Tarantula for two minutes... was quite similar in sound; but i suppose that was too simple a guess (especially considering how difficult the new one would have been to find out )

they should start making impossible boxes like these in Spain... (or have they already?)

who'd have thought that Zorn was a Lincoln Center Regular thank you for posting

Thanks for bringing these videos to our attention. Here are the links: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ilezfXEtcag...ted&search= Wow, thank you Guys!!!

didn't find my own copy but www.archive.org still has a copy of nabil totah's interesting recollections of zoot sims (some more is found under http://web.archive.org/web/20051124084550/...totahbass.com/)

another great record with great KD on it is Oliver Nelson - Meet Oliver Nelson

http://www.freshsoundrecords.com/labels.php don't forget to look at the other labels they own/distribute...

the barron "modern windows suite" made its way to my post box this morning, it's actually not a double CD but a 73 minute single CD produced in 2002... most notable thing is, that this contains only the Modern Windows Suite but not the rest of the album Modern Windows, plus the complete "Tenor Stylings of Bill Barron" including the alternate take "Desolation"

damn, i just ordered my first Bill Barron CD, as in the Savoy thread everybody says over and over how glad they are to have theirs had i waited another 15 minutes it might have been the first Weston, sure looks tempting

finally made it to 2001 this weekend and got the two Ortegas, Koglmanns L'Heure Bleue, Snijbloemen, Eskelin, and Jon Lloyd have spent some time with most of them and like them a lot, almost regret i didn't try Maneri as i like the microtonal string section on the Eskelin a lot (but i had heard some Maneri on the radio ten years ago and didn't like it at all); L'Heure Bleue even has - besides all sorts of nice properties such as Tony Coe - a Tony Fruscella composition, Baite, on it (which, it seems, he didn't record - google suggests that it crossed the Atlantic with Brew moore), the Ortegas, i didn't get another Ortega record in a sale last year and it has haunted me ever since - still these, and especially New Dance which i am just hearing, are much better than i expected... (Snijbloemen and Lloyd i didn't really hear yet) Thank you so much guys!

My thoughts exactly. I enjoyed both MM albums when they came out, but I do not rate them as highly as a number of other Canterbury albums. mine, too; maybe even closer to Soft Machine Vol 2 than to the Wyatt Solo stuff i know, liked it but haven't listened in a while

i like thirdstream (and could not let go that possibility to write the great word "thirdstreamish") and i like other lateef - even if it's not like the third stream i know (or not even third stream at all) i am on the safe side i think... (apropos lateef and third stream: yesterday i noticed that the strings on YL's Detroit were conducted (?) by William Fischer, Joe Zawinuls collaborator on "The rise and fall of third stream")

thank you for this great write up... seems like i will have to try out a thirdstreamish one next (having eastern sounds, other sounds and into something...) i think the rvg of eastern sounds has been discussed somewhere else as having a very strange mix (a lot of treble?), i only know the rvg and love it though i do think (but don't know much about these things) that the bass sounds a little strange a lot of the time (listening to it right now, one of the records i keep at my office, perfect to calm oneself down and (mentally ) put things back where they belong)... what i want to say: other sonic upgrades may have higher priority...

sometimes you have to travel hundreds of miles to find one... !Congratulations!

thank you!

my French is just good enough to see that this might answer Steve's question but I am not sure * Légendaire aussi : Tony Fruscella, l'Open Door et le label Spotlite. Tony Fruscella est majestueux dans ce plan "américain" ; le visage de profil ; les yeux baissés ; une cigarette à la main ; à l'écoute des autres musiciens.

Here it is: edit to add: don't know if the covers here are rare or anything but I had a good time looking at them: (you have to click at the letters to get to the lists of artists starting with that letter) http://www.positifs.org/jazz-passion/8-deq...chdisqindex.htm

the cigarette picture is fruscella from what I've seen elsewhere and he doesn't look much like Brew (there is also the (nice!) Cover Photo of the Spotlite LP which I can't find on the Web right now - there you have the two next to each other and can see pretty well who is who) recollections of brew by piano player Lars Sjösten: http://www.sami.se/art/sjosten/bms.htm

Chesney Baker is actually an interesting example of over/underrated because if you forget about the fuss they made around him in the 1950s (which is easy to do after all this time) and look at more recent times or at the opinions on this board (which is actually pretty close to the jazz public today, ok, most are more or less well-informed, many have to do with jazz professionally but what else is there...) then I'd say Chet Baker is either underrated or correctly rated (Kenny G is a more extreme example of such an artist) and indeed there are people here and there which say that he is better than his reputation, that the excellent ones among his later European recordings are overlooked... (typical signs of an underrated artist)
