brownie-chunks: yea RCA never put any useful info on their lps! they were all pizzazz with the covers but zero info w/ the liners! is that cause even though they recorded some good west coat jazz, they are still a big corporate label that sucks? im pretty skeptical about this lp, in the soundclips, i already could tell it does not match up with Duke's version, which I LOVE. Regarding the reworkings of the melodies, i do not know if that sits well with me--- HOWEVER I STILL WANT TO LISTEN TO IT JUST TO HEAR THE VARIOUS WCJ SAX PLAYERS SOLO OVER THE CHANGES. but i do not know if they melodies on this lp stand up the same way as duke's arragements led to. You guys know i have the largest collection of nutcracker lps than any of u guys here, you knew that, right? I probably have 75, some dating back to the 20s.

the art pepper discog. lists most of the track info: except the following: tracks 2,4,8.11:: a nutty marche the swingin' plum fairy dance espresso oveture for shorty now are these trys just [art out] with same personel or is it from a different session altogeher--- FYI heres what was in the art discog' Shorty Rogers - The Swingin' Nutcracker (RCA Victor LPM 2110) John Audino, Conte Candoli, Shorty Rogers, Ray Triscari, Jimmy Zito (tp) Harry Betts, George Roberts, Frank Rosolino, Ken Shroyer (tb) Art Pepper (as) Bud Shank (as, fl) Bill Holman, Richie Kamuca, Bill Perkins (ts) Chuck Gentry (bars) Pete Jolly (p) Joe Mondragon (b) Mel Lewis (d) Los Angeles, CA, May 17, 1960 Flowers For The Cats Blue Reeds Pass The Duke Six Pax Jimmy Giuffre (cl) Lou Levy (p) replaces Jolly Los Angeles, CA, May 24, 1960 Snowball China Where?

THE MOST F'ED UP MOMENT IN PROG-ROCK HISTORY:

Happy Birthday, you met a 13-year old Catherine Deneuve

tubes are resilient. all this hullaballoo about their shortcomming is overstated. chewy has tubes in his hammond, never once replaced one, and ive had it for seven and a half years and bashed the hell out of it and moved it 360 degress backwards on its bottom end and in a F150 on the freeway upside down strapped down to a rack and all this shit and the tubes are better than ever. i also have tubes in my 50s model (metal cased) wurlitzer and they ain't gone out none never

is that all that is left of WCJ?

cecil taylor is to Free Jazz, what Anna Nicole Smith is to Marilyn Monroe

lol oh hell yes it is: shelly's manne hole! we were walkin' buy and all of a sudden, instead of the print shop/check cashin' place or whatever, it was all open and shit and under construction--- and i was all: what the fuck? so i go in and meet the owner guy, he is turning it into a trendy bar, but he knows about how it used to be shellys manne hole, and he wants to incorporate some of that into the bar, like photos of shellys manne hole and stuff like that. i told him hell yea. i told him that he should have a 6-cd changer in the club with nothing but bob cooper cds. do u guys see the brick wall? thats the original shellys manne hole brick wall- i was suprised to see its still there, i thought w/ the new facade they re did it all----!
