Yes, "Call Me Darling" is missing though it's in the booklet's discography and discussed in the notes. But where did you get the list you cite? Also my Apple Music player says there are 24 cuts on the disc, the last being "Error-short repeat of Kansas City Stride". Fortunately I have "Call Me Darling" on VJC-1018 which Mosaic lists as their source. Old age is catching up with me. I figured it out just as I turned on my computer to read responses.

IIRC he was the brother of actor Taylor Negron.

Got mine yesterday via USPS. Started reading the booklet which has a long quote from Tony Janak in which he explains that the recordings were sent out on 12 inch discs with as many as 60 tunes on a double sided disc. Does anyone know what the playback speed was?

What were the earliest jazz box sets? Should we count albums of 78s? (I don't think we had any jazz ones but lots of others in my house growing up.)

Ravi Coltrane and Terence Blanchard are touring with a tribute concert. I was scheduled to see it last night in Santa Barbara but they were snowed in somewhere in the east. (In the '70s here.)

Agreed. The actual cost of one pressing is minuscule compared to the mixing, pressing, shipping etc.

Howard Alk, who directed it, was a really interesting guy. Did a lot of work with/for Dylan and ended up committing suicide. I interviewed him re: his documentary about Janis Joplin. He was also one of the founders of The Second City.

Does it have the song?

I've never seen this but you can't go wrong with Howard Hawks.

Agreed.

Also the great record with Coleman Hawkins and Pee Wee Russell. And he was partly responsible for "The Sound of Jazz" the greatest jazz tv show ever. But I do remember some of his liner notes reading like they were just tossed off for the money.

IIRC the director (Dudley Murphy?) also directed Black and Tan Symphony with EKE and St. Louis Blues with Bessie Smith.

I saw that band in Montreal in the first half of the sixties but don't remember who the piano player was.

I was on the Bluenote board. took a while to find this one. Not sure how I did find it.

How do you find this out?

Me too.

One of two films Wellman made with a woman dressed as man in a main role. He married the actress from this one. The other is the silent (with a couple of sound scenes) Beggars of Life with Louise Brooks.

When were you born? I was born in '43 and I was too young to have appreciated West Coast Jazz when it was new.

i.e I saw it in VistaVision.

Thanks. I got worried that I didn't have it but I see it's on Classics 1015 (1946) which I do have. And what are the 4 tracks that have never been reissued?

Whaat's the source of the Deep South Suite?

Thanks. IIRC (and again, I often don't), Vertigo was also shot in VistaVision and I saw it screened at the Academy's Goldwyn Theater several years ago.
