  1. just curious... can you add attachments to posts in browsers other than IE?
  2. i for one would like to know more about your session!
  3. Any answers to this one? the magnificient goldberg posted this in "what music did you buy today" - you got an extra "http://" in there...
  4. looks great in firefox... if you still want to see vertical posts and the like, try IE 7 [didn't actually manage to post with that one...] thank you Jim! edit to add: the option to add attachment to posts is only available in IE to me though... weird if i'm right ....
  5. some Mainstream albums on deezer John White - John White (could have aged better, but it's got saxophone solos from Hadley Caliman and Sonny Red...) up next: Gloria Coleman Ltd (with Ray Copeland, Ted Dunbar and legendary Tenor player James Anderson)
  6. My CDs arrived safely, thank you!
  7. i can proudly announce that this year for the first time since 2004 cigarettes have been the dominant force in my unnecessary expenses... i still bought more cds than normal people do but still, deezer and lastfm more or less satisfy my needs for new music with few exceptions... after all 90% of my listening is at work anyway where i can't have too many cds around, 20 or so must suffice...
  8. 36/38 (missed clarke and return to forever)
  9. From the Baltimore Afro-American 1972 Hank Mobley and Charles Davis sat in with Sonny Stitt. That was really something! from Art Simmons "Paris Scratchpad" in JET 1968 New Yorker Wilson Driver Jr. (electrical engineer) ran into saxist Hank Mobley strolling along Blvd St. Germain. Mobley is currently appearing at the Chat qui peche. fascinating game!
  10. another big fan of PC on arco here, e.g. on Coltrane's Prestige albums i recently discovered Henri Texiers early solo albums, Varech and Amir, much more accessible than expected... (don't know where in the world this link works:)
  11. if you got 5 wrong, you probably haven't seen this great youtube video (monaco remembering the phone call)
  12. despite what has happened in recent years, the libertines are still my band of the decade... What a Waster Time for Heroes
  13. 8/12 (including 7, didn't get 8 and 10-12)
  14. Happy Birthday, Bill!
  15. How is this proof enough? The track you're referring to did not appear on that album, but it appeared on a Horo anthology album, which is also easily "needledroppable". ah, had misinterpreted "unreleased track" on the blog... then it is indeed not proof enough... does sinesio's name appear on the cds?
  16. (this is not the horo webpage? but) the fact that the griffin album (which hasn't been mentioned here yet?) contains an unreleased track is indeed proof enough...
  17. the whole line-up of that Ferguson band is surprising imho (Dunlop, Ford, Greenlee, Ellis, ...); playing it now... Maynard Ferguson - trumpet, conductor Don Sebesky - trombone Slide Hampton - trombone Charles Greenlee - trombone Jerry Tyree - trumpet Don Ellis - trumpet Chet Ferretti - trumpet Jimmy Ford - alto sax Wayne Shorter - tenor sax Willie Maiden - tenor sax Frank Hittner - baritone sax Joe Zawinul - piano Jimmy Rowser - bass Frankie Dunlop - drums
  18. i was thinking of "true jazz sideman gigs with some exposure", something like being the second horn player in a quintet, or as a player in a big band but only if there is a solo here and there... still Plas Johnson?... my first thought was Wayne Shorter but i'm sure others have many more...
  19. the album titles for items 8-11 need a correction... (?) and you should make column G a bit wider because at least with my browser it can't be adjusted...
  20. Yes! The first name that came to my mind when I saw this thread. He must be up there. Don't think so - Sonny probably made more albums as a leader or co-leader than most anyone else (possible exception Blakey) but comparatively little as a sideman. And it's sideman appearances that put a musician on top. MG i could imagine chet baker having more leader albums than stitt? wonder who the horn player with most jazz sideman sessions is...
  21. here's a first taste of the horace silver set... (senor blues, with pictures) btw, they offer free streams, mp3 downloads for 8$ and lossless (flac) downloads for 10$... http://www.wolfgangsvault.com/the-jazz-mes...ly-04-1959.html
  22. playing the Art Blakey now (Mobley, Morgan, Timmons, Merritt) - was this previously available? thanks for the heads up, really looking forward to the rest!!
