  1. Thanks for posting that very interesting list, Mike.

    There are a lot of fine players still with us.

    Now, we need someone with some money to record and interview them all.

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    No prize for saying this, but it is great that you could still assemble a rhythm section consisting of:

    McCoy Tyner

    Richard Davis or Ron Carter or Reggie Workman

    Elvin Jones.

    Let's start with recording them. It sad that the shit selling mainly sucks.

    Sick of all these boy bands and nubile blondes.

    If everyone on the board chipped in $100 we can afford to record at least 2 of them.

  2. I would like to see as many of the remaining giants. I've see Horace Silver, Lou Donaldson. I know Lou is still playing. I know Wayne Shorter and Herbie Hancock are stillout there. Is Sonny Rollins still playing live?

    How about any of these?

    Jackie McLean

    Jimmy Smith

    Kenny Burrell

    Oscar Peterson

    Elvin Jones

    Ron Carter

    Clark Terry

  3. Wondering how many greats from the 40's-60's are out there but don't have a concrete record deal. Starting with Dr. Lonnie Liston Smith. Lou Donaldson, Jackie McLEan (of course), Dizzy Recce, Donald Byrd. Just a few that entered my mind. There has to be many more. These cats definded jazz. They should be in the studio laying down some more shit.

  4. He deserves to be in the studio. I can’t understand why some of these giants are not signed to any labels. I was all set to see him Dev of 2002, but he canceled. I couldn't make the May show. If he does play NY, I have to see him. He is one of the few titians left.

  5. My request is somewhat obscure, but a lot of Argo LPs have made their way to CD in Japan, but there is one I've searched high and low for, Richard Evans, Home Cookin'. Not that I expect Universal to put it out in America, but why hasn't it come out in Japan?

    Argo? Yeah! There is a number of Lou Donaldson sessions that I would like to see from this label. Some are just as good as his Blue Note stuff.
