Happy B'day and many more!!!!!

I will get these of course but they have been available before (at least they're listed in Lewis Porter's book). But when I first read this this subject line I was hoping for some new discoveries. Maybe a transcription of the band when Hot Lips page or Claude Williams was still with them.

ii I used to own a copy of this. I think the material on it is available on various cds.

Wow that was scary for a moment. It didn't make sense for the Universal Music Group stuff to even be at Universal Studios since the music group is owned by Vivendi and the studio is owned by GE. At least I think so-- these companies have changed hands so often that I can't keep up any more. And I used to have an office on that lot quite near to where the fire was. (It's like trying to follow the explanations as to who owns the Brunswick recordings from the '30s.)

Why aren't the Canadians here standing up for Tim Horton's? Coffee and Tim Bits?

Jeremy Bentham! John Locke! Somebody on the show studied philosophy.

The closest thing to jazz they ever played on the only radio station where i grew up was Earl Bostic's version of Harlem Nocturne. I admit it's theonly thing I've ever heard by Bostic, though I once heard an interview with Benny Golson in which he cited Bostic as the best altoist he'd ever heard.

Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. Not why I happened to be there but it would have been worth the trip. One of the best concerts I've ever been to. An 800 seat theater and a largely Francophone audience that went crazy for the concert.

Actually you not only have to pay the actors, you have to get their permission to use the clips. Even for old movies. There's about to be an actors' strike over this very issue (amongst other things). The studios want to be able to sell clips without the actor's permissions, though they're offering to continue to pay for that right.

Happy Birthday Jim! You da man!

Happy B'day and many more!!!

Austin, Texas. But it's really not in Texas culturally. There's a university and I read somewhere that housing prices are falling there. Every place on the West Coast seems to have become insanely expensive.

Ysabel's Table Dance from Tijuana Moods.

In his book "This is Your Brain on Music" Daniel Levitin points out "No known human culture now or anytime in the recorded past lacked music." Good book btw.

Not to mention juvenile. It's selling itself as something to use on your Myspace page.

Does anyone else see your info? e.g. The people with the software?

When I opened this thread there was a notice at the bottom of some of the postings that said I was using a MAC and Safari, gave my ip address and said that Van Basten knew about it. I tried to copy the note it into this post but couldn't. What the fuck is that all about?

I agree, though I'm still pissed off about Such Sweet thunder. If you're being paid to produce a cd you should see to it that the take which gets the most discussion in the notes shows up on the cd. As to being a nice guy: apparently he tried to throw George Avakian out of his father's funeral ceremony.

I've even read (though I don't agree) Miles credited with creating, or at least popularizing, hard-bop with "Walkin".

I got the Laurie e-mail, then an e-mail from CD Baby, but as jlhoots says it's already out of stock. I'd suspect that it wasn't in stock yet, but if Ron S was able to order it I guess they did have at least some copies.

So, just for kicks, can we compile an Organissimo-approved list of the "100 essential" albums? I'd be curious to see it. Well we sort of did that with "One Artist one Album". (BTW I think this New Yorker list is pretty good though it leaves out many of my favorites e.g Where's The Blues and the Abstract Truth? Allowing any artist only one cd or box set would make room for a lot of other artists and recordings. )

And Miles's recorded comments. You can get the whole session on the Complete Miles on Prestige box set but they leave out the famous argument.

Ooooops. My bad. Make that December 9, 1956.

I've just come across 2 cuts Billie Holiday recorded with Percy Faith's Orchestra on December 9 1957. (You Better Go Now and Them There Eyes.) They seem to be radio transcriptions for "The Woolworth's Jazz Hour", whatever that was. They're pretty god arrangements with Lady Day in fine form. Does anyone know anything about them?
