yes jazzbo of course i like red garland. danny zeitlein though? um, ill revert back to red garland. he looks kinda like bob james, that a plus, though

Red Callender himself recorded with an octet for Victor in 1952 (though on 78s). ok ok ok ok ok Mr Big Beat THIS is something chewys gotta get hip to, STAT! are you aware of the personel or other pertinent info for these Victor sides! I'm very curious as to whats up with these! Reissues?

are you joking about frank having terry bozzio re-do JCB's drum parts for MONEY? youre making a joke, right?

that is sad

she did, for london records: Miracles (1971)

oh my god she was the living link between music as we know it - and- music 5,000 years ago

i think im starting to understand here- so you were freelance, so kind of like a 'private contractor' for columbia- because you could offer them goods or services they couldn't find elsewhere as good, and you were freelance as to work for many orginizations, and not go steady with Columbia so intead of leaving the producers credit blank on the lps, john hammond, columbia big shot, wanted to slab his name on the jacket cause hell get $$. Did this piss you off to hell, or were you not fazed by it cause people are horrible, and theres no way thats ever gonna change, so why get mad?

he is a personal friend of the Chewy family, sadly i have not seen him play in many many years. i wanna know if thats really him playing on the 20 min. version of Lover come back to me with charlie parker and tony scott. some sources say its him, others say its chuck wayne

i dont know what you guys are hyping over about his trumpet playing- Stuey is known in wcj circles for his brillant Value Trombone playing. he essentially brought the instrument to west coast jazz. ps- what do you mean richard bock produced dates with elmo hope-- is there an original Pacific jazz issue i need to be looking for?

wow, thankxx

oh poo, ok, well its the 1st wcj lp octet by black people.....valid?

http://www.pop-lehti.fi/fin/index.php?s=content&p=crown i tried to translate sweedish but it didnt work...does any one know how to translate this or what language it is, etc??

this wcj octet predates dave pell or even the light house im pretty sure- (anyone know the exact year?) its a really good lp!

well chuck nessa today at dinner we went to five dollar happy hour pizzas, and i was all 'how much extra 2 add feta" and she was all: two dollars- and i was all: how much do u get, a lot? and she said honestly, no- not really that much. well i wanted feta cheese, and a shitton of it, on top of my sausage and mushroom thin crust fancy reastaurant style happy hour pizza. should of just plunked down 12 extra dollars and been all: fine gimme a pizza with six side orders of feta, biatch! or should i have done what i really did, and just fanasized about the feta when i put parmasean on it instead.

i found it today for 7.99 but i declined cause i also found an audition copy of Bill Perkins- Bossa nova with strings attached for 14.99, which i purchaced

i have both his other albums- "plays everything in sight" and "veneuzeulan jororpo"-- had to get both on ebay

thats out of control

clifford thornton: i dont want to speak for chris albertson, but i dont think he cares about apprasials and insurance value. this stuff is part of his life and it not about how much a letter would go for on ebay.

so this driggs had access to columbia records and at some point started claiming false credit for the photos? yea, you sure told him! no way were they going to waste all their $$ going to court when they knew they were guilty!

Thanks Brownie

why r u going 2 sweeden

couldnt a few ads pay off teh salary to keep don heckman?

i thought i had his complete PJ recordings: i was wrong: i need this one....never seen or heard of it.....personel info requested. hopefully curtis amy or buddy collette on sax!

i just pmed him a few days back, haven heard in a while...is he still posting and such? well HAPPY B-DAY!

does EMI now own/ have access to the Lion/Wolff non-tape related blue note archives--- eg. print material, sales figures, et al? or is this material long since vanished from the archives? for i was just listeining to the al lion thank you speech (thank you for it again btw), he gives his sincere thanks to Ike Quebec for all his help and guidence.... ....can you guys expand upon what we know about Ike Quebecs role in blue note as A&R head? was it ikes job to expose al to musics that he should be hip to? or was al hip anyway on his own? who can expand this post and tell us about ike quebecs role later, Duke Pearson took over this role. What is known about him and his role in the company.
