Teasing the Korean

Not till I get to look everything over first!

Vic Mizzy - The Caper of the Gold Bulls OST - Tower (stereo)

Plas Johnson - This Must Be the Plas - Capitol (rainbow, mono)

Hugo Montenegro - Come Spy With Me - RCA (black label, mono)

No, I mean the sidemen on any particular album you like, i.e. the other players. I wasn't referring to a group called the Sidemen.

When you find an album you like, check out the sidemen on the date and explore other things that they did. Much easier to research in the digital era than it used to be.

Still looking for Paul Horn's Cleopatra album. Why is this so hard to find? Wasn't there a Scorpio LP reissue?

When you make a record as adequate as "Satan in High Heels," I'll be first in line to buy it. You and 3 other people. But seriously, how much of your enthusiasm about that recording has to do with Lowe's playing? Just curious. Mundell is a guitarist, composer, arranger, the whole package. SIHH is about the compositions and the arrangements more than individual blowing. Arrangements are what make nervous caffeine-jag jazz work. Of course all the players on it are solid. Having said that, the figure he plays in "Blues for a Stripper" that comes in around 2:32 to 2:36 is the icing on the cake of that solo. If you still have this album, give a serious listen to the tune "The Lost and the Lonely." It is one of the most intense big band arrangements of a ballad from that era. All kinds of interesting harmonies, counter melodies, and a totally orgasmic build-up to the end. Perfect.

Don't know that album. How is it?

= a night in HELL!

But it is the greatest album ever made, next to "Jazz Heat, Bongo Beat."

Just got "Guitar Moods!" What a beautiful, understated album. Great late night listening. I interviewed ML in the late 90s. If I can find the piece I wrote someplace on teh interwebs, I'll post it.

Well we can dig it.

Left you a PM regarding the bossa set.

My two favorite shredding videos are the Santana and Eddie Van Halen.

Miles/Gil - Miles Ahead - Columbia (6-eye mono) Michel Legrand -Legrand Jazz - Columbia (6-eye mono)

Various - Americans in Europe Vols. 1 & 2 - Impulse! (stereo)

They had the right idea in theory with this process, but in practice it didn't work too well. (I won't get into a technical explanation, but you can read about it here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haeco-csg ) Does anyone know if the later CD releases of albums originally mixed with this process have retained it or not?

Russ Garcia - Fantastica - Liberty (rainbow mono) Rufus Harley - A Tribute to Courage - Atlantic (green and red stereo)

It is also the title of a great Barouh film shot in Brazil. Ah, good to know. I watch so little film it's criminal. It seems to be out of print now, but the whole thing is/was on Youtube in numbered segments. Baden Powell is incredible in this film. There is a beautiful scene with shots of the ocean while Powell sings and plays "Yemanja" from "Os Afro Sambas." There is also a picnic/jam session scene in which Maria Bethania is completely baked.

Thanks Chuck. The LP lists all the rest but not James Moody. I used to have a link to a Website that extensively listed anonymous and pseudonymous players, but I couldn't find it last time I checked.

Alice Coltrane/Carlos Santana - Illuminations (Columbia). First time I've ever had a Santana album in the house. Don't tell anyone! EDIT: Side 1 is a lot better than side 2. IMHO.

My guess is Herbie Mann - he played anonymously on other sessions from this period, probably because of contractual issues.
