Yes, indeed!

I guess it's kind of obvious but when I was in a similar situation recently, I googled Buchbinder Buchrestaurator and the name of the city (boekbinder boekrestaurator, actually) and identified a person who seemed to be up for the task... Not a cheap solution but it also diminshes the risk of further damages when reading etc

looks like they called secret service to get the artists' names as given in their passports

this is my copy, don't know what the yellow vs blue labels mean... the sleeve seems at least partly selfmade, i.e., the red insert in the middle looks rather selfmade... but the words Zopot, Muza, Live as well as the album's catalogue number seem to be printed at least - so the design seems generic (even though I haven't seen it elsewhere) but the sleeve itself isn't... a previous owner wrote his name and "1959" on the sleeve, suggesting an early issue...

Yes, i really didn't know what I was buying but did read up on them yesterday evening ... A very long lived band even though Robin "Bob" Hodes was its leader only for a relatively short time... https://syncopatedtimes.com/the-red-onion-jazz-band-a-hot-time-in-new-york-city/ From the same stack of 10in albums, mine has a different cover that may or may not be selfmade... A 1957 live recording from Poland, the first concert by west German Jazz bands since the war... I got this for the band on the b side which has a Frontline if Emil and Albert Mangelsdorff as well as Joki Freund ... Or so i thought... Turned out that for this part of the concert Emil switched to clarinet, Joki to piano and Albert to rhythm guitar for three tracks a la Benny Goodman...

Bob Hodes & the Red Onion Jazz Band lunch break find, an original RIverside 10in LP in excellent condition for 3Euro... guess it helps that it's dixieland and that even the biggest name in the group, Joe Muranyi, is not that big...

Afaik not in his own lifetime though - which i guess is what counted the most for himself

Also spent quite a bit of time in Amsterdam record stores this week, favorite finds include Buddy's Best by Buddy Collette, On the Waterfront with Burt Bales and two Red Callender albums (Speaks Low and The Lowest)...

Al Beldini is how I read the story

Simply the best?

people with memory's like that... around the birth of our daughter, when the midwife came to our apartment, she looked around, identified some jazz related items and said something like "it's a pity you didn't live here in 1980s, I saw Chet Baker every few months back then..." George Bohanon Quartet – Boss:Bossa Nova it's a quintet actually, Joe Messina (g), Kirk Lightsey (p), Cecil McBee (b) and George Goldsmith (dr), maybe some additional percussion on some tracks...

indeed, just looked into Kelley's book, it's early 1970 between Rouse and Jeffrey, Kelley mentions btw that Patrick played tenor for this gig (but maybe bari as well)... Apparently, Wilbur Ware was making most of the suggestions for personnel in this phase of the Monk band, he first asked Dewey Redman as Rouse's replacement (turned them down), then Patrick (who was there for a few months) then altiost Clarence C Sharpe (who couldn't make it) then Jeffrey

Sun Ra's Chicago by William Sites mentions Dangerfield briefly but doesn't say anything about what happened to him... I just looked around a bit and came up with the following basic info: Claude Ruben Dangerfield, born 15 September 1931 as son of Claude Dangerfield Sr and Anna Gamble in Chicago. Married Barbara Joyce Cotledge on 8 December 1961 in Jackson, Mississippi. Died 6 November 1988 in Los Angeles. Final address 2118 West El Segundo Apt 6 in Gardena CA 90249, survived by his wife Barbara.

a confusing bit is that in the NPR show linked in the other thread around 4:10-4:30, they actually play one of the two-sax passages, the beginning of A Different Blues (around when Feldman says "dexterity" in the voice-over) but then they cut out a few bars between the head and the first solo that would really make it obvious

yes and yes... and it really doesn't take close listening to notice that there are two players... (you can find the liner notes on discogs)

came to the same conclusion based on Michael Fitzgerald's list: the facts that 1) the only 1974 date is with Lucky Thompson 2) the date in question is mid November so late in 1973 and 3) evidently someone did sit in in 1973, someone that was taken for granted it seems... all point towards Fields...

I'd been thinking about Love Austin... generally, I'd been wondering whether gender ratios were more balanced in the 20s and 30s than in the golden age of modern jazz heros, the 50s and 60s... i also must admit that I find it a bit weird to accuse a (superannuated) reissue label of biases - unless those biases are more extreme than in the genre they are reissuing - which really doesn't seem to be the case... I would have found it much more logical to start a thread like this one about labels that still record their own new music (like Criss Cross, for a pretty random example out of many)

interesting topic, those are habits that sit deeply - I still find it weird to spell "London" as "Londen" (like the Dutch do) but think it's the most normal thing the world to call Roma "Rom" or "Rome"... regarding Goykovich, the international wikipedias (whom I would trust with that type of thing) seem to have converged to Dušan „Duško“ Gojković with many of them (including English) not even mentioning "Dusko Goykovich" anymore (which I think is misleading if you want to buy the man's records etc... )

Is this one recommended? I had it in my hand last week, intriguing in some respect but not all (i.e. Hinze is not a plus where I have heard him so far) Yes, very nice album and thanks for that interview which is an asset... Last weekend i got the Soulbrass Inc record as my birthday present for myself, completely different but equally fascinating... De Kroeg is next up and then I have Noord covered on LP (plus the CD with Dulfer and Joop Scholten which is great as well)

A case for the jazz detective...

True, you have your own flea market situation in your country... I'd really been looking for this one at a decent price for a while so I was quite happy to bump into it today... One track can be streamed here though: https://www.advancedwarning.nl/music.html

It really is a surprisingly good,. surprisingly free album

Is there any additional Junior Cook in the bonus material?

Herbert Noord - Five Times Six it wasn't that cheap at 15 Euro but not expensive either and: I did manage to buy a nice record from my want list at that dreaded country-wide street market on the occasion of the king's 56th birthday... but I sure didn't try hard, just was lucky enough to walk by a box of jazz albums on a street corner... a classic of experimental organ jazz from Europe (not that there are many albums in that genre)
