  1. K-Log has no place in that video
  2. i am interested in what organsismo board members enjoy ballet, and which of you have seen works performed back in the day. i used to semi-like classical music, but ballet brought me all the way there. As i grew to like ballet more and more, it was interesting to note how my **dislike** of opera and symphony GREW, counterbalencing the other side of the equation.... my biggest problem in ballet is that i am so torn about the nutcracker. on one had, the kids like it, and they have fun and its all about the kids, right? but on the other hand it is like the #1 piece in ballet that could use a full on revision, into a proper ballet for ballet dancers and no crazy stage sets. I know it could work, because back around 1987 they did in nyc a new interpertation of CARMEN/ my first impression was shock as it was so different than what my mind was used to seeing, while listening to the Carmen music....so my first impressoion made me kind of uncomfortable.....but after the curtain went down i realized on how important this was.....WOULD YOU ONLY WANT TO LISTEN TO ONE VERSION OF A NIGHT IN TUNISIA THE REST OF YOUR LIFE??????? no of course not. you want to hear Tyronne Washington play it with art blakey in 1969 on the campus of NYU, ***AND*** u want to listen to bird play it at the bird and a basket club on central ave//// the AAA #1 greatest ballerina currently performing in the world is named Louise Nadeau. To make you guys understand, its like if the ballet was The Jazz Workshop in San Francisco, and louise was the Cal Tjader--Vince Guralidi Quintet, with special guest saxophonist this evening, Stan Getz. also original sin by john lewis is a jazz ballet

  8. seriously, this is the greast blow to jazz since the death of charles the bird himself. what is morgans earliest known recording as a sideman???? i want more "early" F.M. other than the GNP presents FRANK MORGAN lp..... ***IS*** there anything at all that meets this creteria??? LONG LIVE FRANK MORGAN, BEBOP MASTER, JAZZ LEGEND, WEST COAST JAZZ MUSICAN ON CALIFORNIAS WEST COAST IN LOS ANGELES, CITY IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
  9. jeez i jumped when i saw the chopped header on the board contents menu, i thought it was At age 67, Herbie is dead. thank god its just a post about his stupid music with words. In the jazz dialect, lets not start any jazz related sentances w/ numbers unless it is because of the worst. i get too frightened
  10. whats so wrong w/ the chico>??
  11. i am beside myself- i cant believe frank morgan is dead. well maybe i can belive it, but i am sadded and maddened. Frank = true west coast jazz pioneer. i saw him w/ art farmer in a quintet, keeping the bebop spirit alive. art died first but that is beautiful frank got a nother block of years in playing jazz before it was time for him to go. i also cant understand the 30 yrs in prison- is that truly accurate? also what are his earliest known recordings? beside the GNP frank morgan album. hey, i should go play that.....
  12. no, but i just got a two volume collection of the top 50 ABC-Paramount soul 45s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  13. i emailed them last week, havent heard back, ill email transparency again right now yeah the early 80s stuff, sun actually started to play hammond again on it i think- it wasnt like crazy solar organ but more like jazz organ at that time
  14. Phil began composing music about thirty years ago during his first stay in Manhattan. “I wrote a song for Hank Mobley. Hank and I hung out, and he gave me the music to a number he had recorded with Charles Davis and Cedar Walton, “Early Morning Stroll.” So I wrote “Henry Earl Spirit” for him.”
  15. did u guys also listen to that one called CREQUE!? that ones good too-- that sucks he died, i always liked him on those grant green sides-- he really brought a lot to grants new sound
  16. has anyone heard a bootleg or seen on youtube the Squire/Emerson part yet? if so, direct chewy to it!
  17. saw him in '02 or '03 with his rock & roll revue. it was rockin'!
  18. so what was he doing prior to his "comeback'? did he just decide one day to start gigging and, and then make a myspace page? what the hell?
  19. is hanks 1968 REACH OUT lp the 1st BN to feature a song/s made famous on the MOTOWN label?
  20. oh ok thanks mg, yea that would be sweet if it contiues to work with a pop up message for me, otherwise ill try this 7 up program in 3 days!
  21. i am worried about a hank biography. i do not want to read a bio based around interperations of hanks music. this guy better have done some solid reserach
  22. yes i guess this is a good addition-- maybe w/ a separate header, it will premote increased dicussion. i will contribute this now, finally, here on the board: i dont know if i really told that many of u guys, one or two might know it, but did u guys know i worked for a ballet co. for a year and a half? Chewy **LOVES** ballet. i love ballet as much as I love Emminent JJ Johnson: volumes one **AND** two!! I have seen dozens and dozens of ballets in the front row center, directly in back of the conductors head. i have over 75 different lps, 78s, and ep versions of NUTCRACKER, and about half that number of swan lakes. I have gotten to meet the greatest 20th century west coast ballerinas, who off the stage are just regular people like you and me, but on the stage, are something much much much more. In fact chewy has dabbled in choreography of late, some of my works include: -A modern interperation of NUTCRACKER- a re-choregraphed nutcracker- nixing all the x-mas-ey costumed dancers, and non pointe-releated 'party scenes' replacing them with more serious pointe work in the Ballenchine style -Jethro Tull's A PASSION PLAY: taking the concept lp to the stage: a ballerina becomes pregnant and dies and travels through the seven rings of hell -RIVER OF AIDS: a think piece about change in social attitutes my grand masterwork is going to be a full length Phil Collins ballet, however so far I've just completed the ballad section, which will be "In Too Deep". I have hit a roadblock with "Apocylcpse in 9/8" which is an essential section (originally created by genesis in a dance studio) but im having trouble comming up with what i need for that one.
