IIRC everything on Get Up with It is on the One the Corner box set. Is there any difference in any of the mixes? ARe the longer pieces less compressed?

If you're interested in completeness the Columbia has a cut of chairs being shuffled around. But the sound stinks on several numbers. Best sound I've heard is the "Definitive" release. An earlier discussion I read somewhere (here?) suggested that all releases are missing a number or part of one number.

I don't know who's playing, but the melody is "Dayenu" a song sung during Sedar.

Mine was fine too.

Douglas Coupland's biography of Marshall McLuhan. I studied with McLuhan in the mid-'60s and stayed n touch with him for a few years after. This books really nails it. A lot of fun too.

Saw Hendricks a couple of times in the '60s. Once in London. Ross joined him on stage. (It was an anti-Vietnann war benefit at the Royal Albert Hall at which the members The Nice painted an American flag and then burned it while playing Bernstein's "America", for which they were forever banned from the RAH. I presume that means Emerson Lake and Palmer never played there.)

What would be considered R&B records 1945-1948? Louis Jordan? Illinois Jacquet? Charles Brown? T-Bone Walker? I can think of quite a few people in the late '40s but not as early as '45. (I'm not saying there weren't any, just that I don't know of any unless includes a lot of musicians I think of as Blues artists.)

Hate to display my ignorance but who's Beeks?

Uhhh.. Before the Devil Knows You're Dead. My point just being that it certainly doesn't look like it was made by a man in his 80s. And doesn't in any way seem like a farewell.

Yes. I found the film really depressing but it was made with amazing strength and agility.

His last film "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead" looks like ti was made by a 22 year old.

Is anybody trying to preserve this? It's scary to think of all the things that could happen to those tapes in a basement.

I dunno... sounds to me like they have their priorities.

It's the quartet with Alice and Ali. Of course they play My Favorite Things but also Meditations, . (As usual there are mistakes in the notes. This guy thinks Julie Andrews introduced My Favorite Things.)

I really like his playing with Mingus and on Pepper Adams's Ephemera.

Amazon and the iTunes store have been pretty sloppy about this. They should hire Sue Mingus. I don't know why the bigger labels haven't complained. Someone did sue Nexus for selling in The States but otherwise I haven't read anything about labels going after grey market sellers.

Brighter Moments! Happy B'day!

Last night: the debut performance of my wife's band MYNX. They killed.

I think the cds are teh same as the Lps but neither contain the complete concerts. There were 2 concerts in 1943, one in January and one in December. The DEcember one is available from Storyville.

I thought I had the JATP but there are 2 cuts not included in the cd I had of the First JATP concert plus 2 cuts from a second concert the same month.

Can you give more info on this please. I didn't know about it.

Happy B'day and many more. What was it like back in the early 20th Century when you bought all those blues records?

I've seen Reich several times and each performance was magical. Never seen anyone else doing his work though I have some recordings.

Just came back from Fritz and the Tantrums in a small,. crowded, standing only club. Good fun. Glad smoking is no longer allowed in clubs.

Uhh you may be right. I have to go listen to them both.
