  12. It's NOT Lateef on the cover. It's Trane And it's appropriate. The CD cover reproduces the original poster for the actual concert at the Olatunji concert! o.k. i guess i have to concede the photo, but . . surely coltrane didn't play flute at the concert or on the cd?!
  13. Looks like Trane to me. It is Trane from a series of studio portraits by Chuck Stewart. MAYBE SO BUT HERE IS THE LINE-UP: 670423 JOHN COLTRANE SEPTET: Personnel: John Coltrane, soprano, tenor saxophone; Pharoah Sanders, tenor saxophone; Alice Coltrane, piano; Jimmy Garrison, bass; Rashied Ali, drums; Algie Dewitt, bata drum; probably Jumma Santos, perc.

Coltrane) 28:25 Rhino [CD] R2-71255; Verve/Impulse 314 589 120-2 b. "My Favorite Things" (J. Coltrane) 34:38 Private tape; Verve/Impulse 314 589 120-2 Second Performance: c. "Tunji" (J. Coltrane) Private tape? d. "Acknowledgement" (J. Coltrane) Private tape? NOTE:The complete first performance from this concert is on Verve/Impulse.

  15. TV's 'Mr. Wizard' Don Herbert dies at 89 By LYNN ELBER, AP Television Writer LOS ANGELES - Don Herbert, who as television's "Mr. Wizard" introduced generations of young viewers to the joys of science, died Tuesday. He was 89. Herbert, who had bone cancer, died at his suburban Bell Canyon home, said his son-in-law, Tom Nikosey. "He really taught kids how to use the thinking skills of a scientist," said former colleague Steve Jacobs. He worked with Herbert on a 1980s show that echoed the original 1950s "Watch Mr. Wizard" series, which became a fond baby boomer memory. In "Watch Mr. Wizard," which was produced from 1951 to 1964 and received a Peabody Award in 1954, Herbert turned TV into an entertaining classroom. On a simple, workshop-like set, he demonstrated experiments using household items. "He modeled how to predict and measure and analyze. ... The show today might seem slow but it was in-depth and forced you to think along," Jacobs said. "You were learning about the forces of nature." Herbert encouraged children to duplicate experiments at home, said Jacobs, who recounted serving as a behind-the-scenes "science sidekick" to Herbert on the '80s "Mr. Wizard's World" that aired on the Nickelodeon channel. When Jacobs would reach for beakers and flasks, Herbert would remind him that science didn't require special tools. "'You could use a mayonnaise jar for that,'" Jacobs recalled being chided by Herbert. "He tried to bust the image of scientists and that science wasn't just for special people and places." Herbert's place in TV history was acknowledged by later stars. When "Late Night with David Letterman" debuted in 1982, Herbert was among the first-night guests. Born in Waconia, Minn., Herbert was a 1940 graduate of LaCrosse State Teachers College and served as a U.S. Army Air Corps pilot during World War II. He worked as an actor, model and radio writer before starting "Watch Mr. Wizard" in Chicago on NBC. The show moved to New York after several years. He is survived by six children and stepchildren and by his second wife, Norma, his son-in-law said. A private funeral service was planned. ___ On the Net: http://www.mrwizardstudios.com
  16. i use this system as well and notice the haze - i thought it was the age of the cd's though and not the sleeves. i have noticed sound degradation with some older cd's and have had to replace them.
