  1. FWIW (which is probably not much) I agree: no way that's Hawkins after Ella. (And the liner notes continue to say that it's probably Phillips.)
  2. I remember hearing a radio interview with Benny Golson in which he said Earl Bostic was a great saxophonist. I was surprised because the only Bostic with which I was familiar was his version of Harlem Nocturne which was the only thing even near jazz they played on the only radio station in my home town.
  3. Sure sounds like Bean to me but Flip Phillips was a bit of a chameleon.

    Bob Dylan corner

    I can't find the quote but somewhere Allan Ginsberg said that he'd never written a line as good as "The Motorcycle Black Madonna, Two Wheeled Gypsy Queen.!"
  5. If we all buy this first release maybe it will come sooner. BTW It's number 1 on iTunes in the jazz category. Definitely worth the $9.99 even if the sound is sometimes scratchy. And with expansive liner notes by (amongst others) Dan Morgenstern.
  6. Happy BB'day!. (i.e.Happy Belated Birthday)
  7. But didn't Chubby actually pick his name to echo Fats Domino?
  8. I dunno. Maybe the disc on which they were found.
  9. Thanks so much. It worked.
  10. I know this has been asked (by me amongst others) and answered before but I can't find those posts. Is it possible to start a users guide thread for dumb people like me. BTW I'm using (or trying to use) Postimage.
  11. https://postimg.org/image/7g8ohdjmz/ I seem to have read the date correctly but unless he recorded this in Europe the date they list is wrong: he didn't return to the US till July '39.
  12. Nash the Slash! Wow there's a name I haven't heard in a long time.
  13. Atom was a student of mine. How about Counting Crows, The Black Crows, The Black Keys. Three bands probably no one on this forum ever listens to.
  14. Was going through the Trane discography and came across: Jam Session At The Plaza Hotel Lee Morgan (trumpet) John Coltrane (tenor sax) Billy Strayhorn (piano) Sam Jones, Jimmy Woode (bass) Philly Joe Jones (drums) "Edwardian Room", The Plaza Hotel, NYC, September 9, 1958 Lullaby Of Birdland Columbia unissued Unknown Ballad Has anyone ever heard this? The same night as the Miles Davis Sextette recordings.
  15. I'm very interested in the Miles Davis All Stars Live '58-'59.
  16. They're pdf.s. Usually just copies of the booklet that come with the cd. Since there is no cd in this case maybe they'll do something more creative. You can keep them with the album or playlist in your iTunes folder or just store them somewhere else. If you burn a disc you can print them out to keep with it.
  17. No I just realized it myst be Emilio Caceres. Gee how did I not recognize him?
  18. I just pre-ordered it ($9.99) and was able to download the first cut (Body and Soul). It's an AAC audio file which can be burnt to disc or easily copied as an MP3 file. But obviously you can't up-grade it. BTW If you find it on the iTunes store (I got it by searching for Coleman Hawkins) you can see what the rest of the 18 songs are as well as some nice pictures--one of whom is somebody I don't recognize. Any one able to identify them all?
  19. "Savory "taped" the music? I don't think so. I believe the collection is all dubs on disc. My theory is that Savory was recording whole programs as part of his job and then made dubs of his favorite individual performances ( And despite those who want to to criticize his penchant for Benny Goodman he obviously had pretty good taste. ) BTW I hope they include the live version of Body and Soul I heard that was broadcast before the RCA side was recorded. (Or at least I think that was what I heard-- the version embedded in this story is a lot like what I remember. Maybe I read the date wrong.)
  20. You're probably right. I was confusing the LP NUMBER (i.e. DETS 46) with the show number. But I suspect the Lps included the Roosevelt memorial that was on the first double cd and is not numbered as a Treasury show. I still think that leaves room for one bonus cd. Or maybe the liner notes for Vol 21 are wrong when they say the broadcast of July 27th was number 42. Ken Steiner doesn't give broadcast numbers that I noticed in his notes to vol 20 but vol 19 says the two broadcasts are numbers 36 and 37 though they were recorded over 3 weeks. As is often the case, I'm confused.
  21. If I'm reading the New Desor correctly, there were 46 Treasury shows. Vol 21 takes us though number 42. So what's going to be on the next three double cds? Some nice bonuses I hope.
  22. I like Lee Wiley from all decades (even the '70s) but I highly recommend you listen to her earlier work.
  23. This is great! Thanks for the notice. (Though I still don't understand exactly the site is.)
  24. Just got a notice they've shipped it! (Do you think I have too much time on my hands?)
  25. I sent them a minor correction once. Never heard back and the correction wasn't made.
