Teasing the Korean

Um, that's precisely the point of the article's title. By the early 70s, though, the historic preservation movement had gotten underway in the US. You wonder if they even tried to donate the music library before destroying it.

You may know his song "I'm Hip," written with Dave Frishberg. Dorough, Frishberg, and Blossom Dearie were part of New York rat pack of literate, jazzy, and humorous caberet-ish singers/pianists/songwriters. People of a certain age group in the US know him through the Schoolhouse Rock interstitials that Rooster Ties posted above.

Sometime in the 1980s, I heard Bob Dorough singing/playing "These Foolish Things." I think it was live. Anyone know what album this may have been?

Thanks. I love those two Capitol albums I mnentioned. Also his score to Munster Go Home.

People wonder how something like the Universal fire can happen, and then you read accounts such as this, and it all makes sense.

They look quite a bit like the early CTI albums when CTI was distributed by A&M.

Ben Webster - Ballads - Verve (70s twofer reissue, mono) Sides 3 and 4. Side 3 has Ralph Burns arrangements; side 4 is mostly small group. How is the Jack Marshall side? I love his Capitol albums Soundsville and 18th Century Jazz. I think I have a Bossa album by him on Capitol also.

Os Novos Bahianos - E Ferro na Boneca! (RGE)

Roberto Menescal - A Bossa Nova (Elenco)

Several UA titles, but still no Provocatif by John McFarland.

The written scores for countless films are lost, not the recordings.

If you want an autograph, send me a PM.

Ben Webster - Ballads - Verve (70s twofer reissue, mono) Ralph Burns arrangements.

Marian McPartland - Bossa Nova + Soul - Time (mono). The perfect album for today's young couple while they are preparing dinner and drinking wine. Funny story about this one: I'd had it for years and couldn't find it. I assumed I misfiled it. I ended up buying another copy. We moved about four years ago, and when I was packing up the LPs, I would look through each armload to see if anything was misfiled. So I'm filing the jazz albums, and there it is, filed alphabetically under "Mc." I was looking in the Bossa and Now Sound/Groovy sections. It didn't even occur to me to look for it under jazz, which would have been the obvious place to file it. The LP cover is beautiful, incidentally.

I dunno. I had that Bud Powell with the cat, and couldn't wait to unload it. And I am obsessed with cats.

IIRC, half of it is funky/groovy, and half of it is more straight ahead. NP: Blue Stars of France - Lullaby of Birdland - Emarcy (mono)

Agreed.

Oh, I thought that was a photo of the bottle after you'd drained it!

I've been going through old CD-Rs and just found two Kenny Drew Jr. CDs that he autographed. He was bootlegging his own CDs and selling autographed copies at shows for five bucks a throw.

I would assume that jazz producers, categorically, are not very much into style or aesthetics. And I mean jazz producers from more recent decades. I'm sure the classic guys wore Brooks Brothers suits and had moderne furniture in their pads.

Yes, I saw your clarifying post. I said "appear to be" because, on first read, I didn't notice anything egregious. Once you clarified, I could see how they were out of sequence. And again, I applaud your use of the Oxford comma. I assume that choice was yours and not that of a Japanese editor.

Is The Essential Charlie Parker in this category? I had this, but unloaded it, largely because of the cover art.

Do you find that Pinot Noirs are more hit or miss than most reds? I find them to be either really good, or nearly undrinkable. Now enjoying a 2018 California Cabernet.

It might be! This is one that I have on CD with the correct cover art.

Wow! Some quiet, rainy day jazz is on deck for today: Paul Desmond - Polka Dots & Moonbeams (RCA) Phones Newborn - While My Lady Sleeps (RCA) Stan Getz Plays for Lovers (Concord Jazz) Guitar Moods by Mundell Lowe (Riverside)
