Bright Moments

Yes, if you are into extreme vocal techniques. I am. Recorded in various inappropriate places (elevators, roofs, basements, etc.). You want a cover? Here is the cover: just spun this one - IMHO one of the most bizarre things i have ever heard.

Nothing odd! Yusef Lateef was involved with the Center and often played there. Article on Olatunji thanks for that!!!

No, but I do remember this. B) why is there a picture of yusef lateef on the cover of a coltrane album?

afro-harping is pretty darn good IMHO!

Well, Jane was sexy when she shared a duplex with me in 1955-56, in L.A. But since she's an old lady now, as I am, I doubt very much if she's still sexy. But who knows? Hello everyone. I'm Bonnie (aka Aurorawolf) and Jane Fielding was my best friend, as was her family. I lost track of her after leaving California, so I have no idea what's she's up to these days. I have both of her LPs in my collection, given to me in person. (One was cut on red vinyl.) The story behind those two recordings is that they were demos, paid for by a friend. They're also unedited, which is why you hear a few imperfections in Jane's singing. In addition, I was also friends with Jane's boyfriend at the time, Ted Efantis, the tenor sax player on Embers Glow. Jane married after I left California, had two children, then they divorced. I've been trying to find her without any luck, since it's possible she remarried and is going by a different name. I would love to hear from her again and relive old times. We had a lot of fun and she even introduced me to some of her jazz musician friends. I'm a little confused about her being a former ice skater who turned to singing after being injured. To my knowledge, she wasn't a skater. (I could be wrong about that.) But she did claim to have done high-fashion modeling when she lived in Miami. As you can see by her photo, she was simply gorgeous. Her hair was Clairol dark red. . . . (She might hate me for that! ) So anyway, that's the Jane Fielding I remember. http://my.athenet.net/~aurorawolf hello bonnie and welcome to the board!!!

karen briggs is excellent on this fusion cd:

got lucky on amazon marketplace!

enjoyed the gatti - thanks for the recommendation!

He means "Last Chance." You know, I think that eye roll thing is pretty rude and unneccesary. I obviously made a small, easy to parse out error in the course of taking a couple minutes out of an extremely busy day at work to post what I thought might be valuable information to a couple people around here. right back at you. I'll see your and raise you one . Sorry, didn't mean to be rude--just trying to make a correction with a smile. I guess I picked the wrong one. I just wanted to make sure that people who still want this set are aware that it has moved from "running low" to "last chance" so they don't miss the chance to get it. time for a group hug!

Keith Jarrett - Facing you just terrific and zero moaning!

the write-up says that it will be a milestone in jazz literature. dave- ya just cant rush a milestone!
