the title of this posting is called Modern Records from Los Angeles is more important than you think, because Modern Records is amazing. I mean BLUE NOTE level amazing:: 1st of all is music selection- you can find a wide range of styles from slow blues piano silky stylings of Hadda Brooks Trio, to the uppiitiest of uppitty "up" jump-blues pieces...... ......then there BB KING himeself, recording on "RPM" modern subisdiary label ***NOW WHAT I REALLY NEED TO TALK ABOUT IS JULES BIHARI & IKE TURNER'S TRAVELS AND FIELD RECORDINGS IN THE SOUTHERN US*** they made a number of trips together, during ikes time as a&r man for modern! the other cool thing about MODERN stuff is THAT **MODERN LOVES REISSUES** MODERN CREATOR BIHARI STARTED --CROWN-- AND REISSUED MANY CLASSICS 78s ON LP (so there were not good liner notes, at least the music was there!!) YOU KNOW YOU GUYS, IVE TALKED ABOUT --CROWN-- FOR A WHILE O HERE, BUT NEVER, NOT ONCE, HAS ANYONE EVER REALLY ANSWERED 1 OF MY Q's OR TOLD ME ANYTHING INTERESTING ABOUT THEIR CROWN and other MODERN expiereinces, besides (oh the vinyl is such bad quality, etc ) SO FINALLY LETS HAVE A FRANK, SERIOUS DISCUSSION ABOUT IT ANOTHER GOOD THING IS HOW BIHARI REVIVED THE MODERN LABEL FOR THE LATE 60s/EARLY 70s and released the FINEST SOUL MUSIC THIS SIDE OF DETROIT.....IT IS BY FAR A HIGHLGHT (one of many) for the label i have always wanted to see the Auto-Car-Glass-Refinnishing Auto repair garage that was MODERN/CROWN headquarters for so long, but never have made it--- maybe one of you LA guys can visit someday!

blue note should of had a cheap subsidary. MODERN ---> RPM had the lovely notorious CROWN, Prestige had STATUS (?- i dont know much about the releatoinship between those two please speak up and lets talk about SUBIDIARYS (sic) in this post blue note should of had a cheap subidiary to put on all the lps that werent "fit" for bluenote, such as Barry Harris Trio for example. Barry Harris trio would of been #1. Can you believe they wouldn't let him work for blue note (as a leader)?!?!?!?

so was cal massey like a teacher to lee morgan, or was he just a collegue...since he isnt on a lot of record himself, was he teaching, or playing live, or i guess my question is in what capacities did he perform and play in the 50s and 60s -

what other artists comprise the 'Bakersfield sound?' Have any of you ever heard country music in Bakersfield? In T-town there was this crazy guy i used to know who lived in the back of a warehouse in this little weird metal room......, he had this orginal photograph, really large like the whole pic is like 8 1/2 by 12 and its of a CAPITOL stockroom, with boxes and boxes and stacks and stacks of capitol 78s....and then in an open space in the room are mics set up and a band: Tex Ritter-- and the caption on the sticky note he had stuck on the bottom of the pic, says::: notice Tex Ritters dissatisfaction with the photographer--- and i think it said that because ritter was kind of scowling camera from a distance pissed this guy was fucking flash a photo or something. ITS LIKE THIS SKETCHY ASS PIC SOME COOL DUDE WITH ACCESS TO CAPITOL FUCKING JUST TOOK IN STOREROOM WITH TEX RITTER CUTTIN a 78
