Teasing the Korean

Freddie Hubbard - Blue Spirits (Blue Note, NY mono)

Lou Donaldson - Rough House Blues (Cadet, stereo) Reissued here as part of a Chess twofer.

McCoy Tyner - Tender Moments (Blue Note, stereo, played back in MONO to improve the mix.) "Utopia" has an early-70s TV sound!

Grape fizzy with just a touch of lavender syrup.

Dave Brubeck - Countdown: Time in Outer Space (Columbia six-eye, mono) Dedicated to John Glenn.

Pete Rugolo - Rhythm Meets Rugolo (Mercury, mono) Collects tracks originally released on For Hi-Fi Bugs and Out on a Limb. I have a stereo copy of this also. The mono sounds very different, as it used close-miking, whereas the stereo used overhead miking.

Oliver Nelson - Fantabulous (Cadet, stereo) Crazy piano solo by Patti Bown on track 1.

John Dankworth - Jazz from Abroad (Roulette, stereo) Featuring the amazing "A String of Camels."

👍👍

Why would anyone want to remove Basil Wolverton art from an LP cover?

😹😹😹

This may be the stuff that I was discussing further upthread.

Thanks. Maybe it's just the CD. Or my ears! Thanks, not familiar with these. In looking at his discography as I sideman, I see that I have many albums that he plays on, but I didn't remember until I checked.

Tickets arrived today! Hopefully, it will be legal to see music from Tijuana after this January! 😹

👍 So I just played this. I found the solo piano tracks to be underwhelming. The two long trio tracks were much more interesting, especially from a rhythmic standpoint. Is it me, or am I hearing some weird pitch/tape speed issues at the end of "A.L.B.O.M."? Talking like the last minute or so of the tune.

Mal Waldron is a name I've heard for decades, but I never checked him out. I recently liberated a Mal Waldron CD from the free bin, on the Black Lion label. It is called Blues for Lady Day. It apparently contains a second album, too, considering the 70-minute disc length and the additional two tracks clocking in at 35 minutes. I haven't spun it yet.

Louis Prima did a commercial for a Greatest Italian Hits compilation sold on TV, circa 1972 or so. I have searched every corner of the InterWebz looking for this commercial, but I can't find it. If any of you do, please post it.

The show will be available for one magical week until 4 pm EST Saturday, at which time it will vanish into the ether forever, along with your memories of it. Scroll down for the links. https://www.wmnf.org/events/surface-noise/

Ms. TTK played "Sorry" by the Easybeats yesterday.

Everything looks orange after staring at those blue pages for an hour.

Ms. TTK, who frequently plays beat groups on her radio show, will program a Shel Talmy set on today's installment. I will add parenthetically that, while previewing particular songs for her to include, we were appalled by the lame stereo remix of the My Generation album on the deluxe set. And there was plenty of room to include the original mono mix.

On the other hand, maybe this is not surprising. I had sent them additions and corrections over the years, and in recent years, none of these made it to the Website.

Why are they closing it?!?

Wendy Carlos

You remove "ube" from "tube" in the url, hit "return," and then it takes you to a screen to download. I selected wav as the output format. It allows you to download up to three tracks in an hour. Everything downloads properly. Each file looks, sounds, and acts like any other wav file, but the time for each reads 6 hours, 12 minutes, and 50 seconds, regardless of length. I just listened to all 10 tracks in a playlist, and they collectively clock in at 28 minutes. Weird.
