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.

I'm gettin it just for the Basie. I expect I already have at least some of those that but I presume this will be with better sound.

Where'd you see it in 70mm? (IIRC-- and I often don't-- it was shot in VistaVision.)

Not sure that all streams are available for download. However there are programs which will record anything playing on your computer. (I use Audio Hijack-- when I can remember how to make it work.)

Got a nice plug from Evan Iverson on Substack today.

Do the labels create the metadata?

I've got the Joe Sullivan. PM me and I'll send it to you.

You are right. My fault-- even though i tend to buy BluRay I still call them DVDs. Is there a reason some people prefer DVDs?
