i don't care too much for studio chatter usually, but in such a case it might actually help to nail down whether it really was Coltrane??? (depending on who chatters what) How did you find this on the Losin site? Does he have a Trane discography I can't find?

Duke Ellington-- though many of the releases were years or even decades after the performances.

I thought he said "I get it" too, but my wife assures me that usual I was wrong. She does have better ears than me.

The 1936 film version also had some pretty good songs that were written especially for it. More important it has Helen Morgan and Irene Dunn as well as Robeson.

I was organizing an old pile of film score cds people had sent me when I came across this. The score is by Howard Shore with a few Ornette compositions but Ornette plays on nearly every cut! Did this get much notice in the jazz community when it was released? I mean where else can you hear Ornette playing a Monk composition?

Are they higher quality sound or just DRM free?

Itunes has gotten wise to this and usually you can't download all the tracks if the album is shorter than 10 tracks. I imagine it will be the same here. I think it sucks -- one of many reasons I do almost no business with Itunes and do all my downloading with eMusic. I haven't found that on iTunes, and can think of numerous examples where records with less than 10 cuts cost 99 per cut (though you might have to get the whole record). However they often don't allow the download of long cuts unless you buy the whole record. (Though I just bought Prez's longest recorded solo for 99 cents-- all nine minutes of it. )

I checked the Disney Hall (Philarmonic) website and couldn't find any mention of this. Also not listed in the Bowl's schedule. Does the Bowl season even go into September?

It may be missing something but what is there smokes! Art's tone is harsher than on earlier recordings with which I'm familiar but I've never heard him play with so much passion-- and he was always passionate. George Cables is just great.

Thanks everyone. I seem to have everything except some of the alternative takes and Chasin' the Bass. Can anyone tell me what session it's from?

Thanks Chuck. You're right, I don't think the Chaloff is there. I presume it had everything from Blue Serge, Boston Blow Up and Fable of Mable. Was there anything else? I've got those plus a compilation called "We the People Bop". Am I Missing anything? (I've also got the Uptown but it's a live recording.)

I tried searching but can't seen to find the the right key words. I'll try again. Any suggestions?

Is there some way to get the discographies from oop Mosaic sets on-line?

91! I thought I had a done pretty good by collecting 33 from various Hampton, Hawkins, Berry, etc compilations. I sure wish someone would re-issue all 91 again.

Wierdly enough I read about it on a political blog on the Huffington Post! Was about to post the info when this thread appeared.

I've probably taken Buddy Guy a bit for granted because I used to go dancing to him and Junior Wells at the El Mocambo in Toronto. One night my son was watching a tv show with Eric Clapton and various guitar players. When Buddy came on my son said "Forget Clapton-- This guy is amazing!"

Hey, and he used Milt Hinton. Played Branch Rickey to Hinton's Jackie Robinson.

No doubt that was just a coincidence

I saw the Quartet in Montreal in 1964 or 65. Probably spring of '65 because I was fairly familiar with their work by then. It was very intense. I sat very near the stage but couldn't hear Jimmy Garrison at all except when he soloed, probably becasue I was on Elvin's side of the stage.

Bobby Jasper wrote an essay about Elvin's druming behind JJ and Jasper. You can find part of it in the notes to the JJ Mosaic set.

I have a vaguae meory that Thomas was hanging around Montreal when I moved there in 1961 b ut I didn't know enough to go see him when he performed.

Hail to the King!!

Right. That's what I hear from Danny Barker but not from Reuss. (But then again my ears are shot from old age and too many rock concerts.)

I first posted this in the thread about the Chu Berry Mosaic, but got no reponse: A couple of times in the notes Loren Schoenberg refers to the guitarists playing "broken chords". What exactly does he mean? (Where he mentions them in regard to Danny Barker I hear Barker playing every note of the chord separately but where he talks about Allen Reuss playing behind Mildred Bailey I just hear regular chords.)

Yes, it became clear early-on that these young men probably did not rape their accuser. At least they were never convicted of a crime and never had to serve unjustified prison time, unlike the state worker in Wisconsin whose guilty verdict was overturned by a 3 judge panel last Friday. She was railroaded last fall during the Wisconsin gubernatorial race by an overzealous US Attorney, who was proudly doing the White House's bidding. Man, it's amazing how you guys can stick your hatred of Bush into just about every post! Isn't Nifong a Democrat??? Didn't he use this case to win re-election???? I didn't feel the need to mention that before, I was trying to just keep this on the case itself.....since this will no doubt push this into the political forum, how about some names, in the story you mentioned?
