Well that may give me 10 or so years. I'm only 79.

Is there any way to get a digital version of Mark Murphy's original "I'l Be Seeing You" from "Rah!"? IIRC the song's composers made him redo it with the original words for all releases after the first one. (Same thing happened with "My Favorite Things".) I remember "I'll be seeing you /in all the old familiar faces/of the horses at the races/I'll see you." But I don't remember the rest and would love to hear it again.

I always thought I was only missing a couple of cuts because I own 5 cds of this material. But checking out Discogs I see that this set is 8 cds! I'd like to hear it before I die. https://www.discogs.com/sell/release/7998220?ev=rb

Any of the "Django and his American Friends" dates. Were there many (any?) studio only groups that had more than one recording date? I just thought of one: "The Poll Winners"-- Shelly Mann, Ray Brown and Barney Kessel. I don't know of them doing any live appearances but they might have.

Think they have any Buddy Bolden?

I wonder if it will have any previously unreleased material.

I love this record!

I was watching the HBO show about the Lakers and in a montage about Kareem footage of Mingus suddenly appeared.

Saw that via Facebook and then was able to see the clip. Was it broadcast, live-streamed or something else?

I once got a residual check for 5 cents.

I don't think Disney has much chance of extending the copyright after 2024. Maybe if they were completely apolitical they might have had a chance to claim Mickey was a national treasure and congress should keep it under copyright the way Brits did with Peter Pan (the play- not the character) and the French have done with the Melies and Lumiere films. (As well as the work of various painters.) A film historian friend of mine ran into Bernard Tavernier who said "Isn't great that we've saved the films" to which my friend replied "Who are you saving them from?" Which is the way I feel about the various estates keeping all of the Savory collection from being released.

Is there a catalogue of what's in the Savory Collection? I couldn't find anything on the Museum's website. The couple of times I've been there I was able to listen to anything listed on the computer, but has that list been made available on-line? I think everything in the collection was listed and it's mouth watering. (I guess especially if you're a Benny Goodman fan. )

So I guess you heard "After You've Gone" at the Museum?

Thanks.

Is there a discussion of the Blakey anywhere? If not, has anyone here heard it and how is it?

2 questions: Does anyone know how many songs from the Goodman jam session there are in the collection? And what songs are the 2 great Pres solos from?

About 60 years ago I saw Milt Buckner with a large band at a club called The Black Bottom in Montreal but I can't remember who the leader of the band was.

I saw Don Newcom at a jimmy Smith club show. I thought it was Sonny Rollins till Jimmy introduced him.

I'm getting ads from this label on Facebook. Is there anything they've released that I should buy? Who are they and how good are their recordings?

Me too.

I had a girl friend many years ago who only owned one jazz record and this was it. I didn't know about this but bought it (cheap) on Amazon for Pee Wee. It's great. Thanks for the recommendation. A weird brain fart: for years I remembered that in my home town, which only had one radio station, it not only played cover versions of early rock and roll (Pat Boone instead of Little Richard) but a cover of Buddy Knox's Party Doll by Muggsy Spanier. I recently mentioned this to a knowledgeable friend and he pointed out that it was Wingy Manone who'd done a cover of Party Doll. I checked it out on Lord and he was right. Now I'd never heard of either trumpeter at that time so when did I do the transference?

IIRC (and I often don't) he was on a Mose Allison tribute record along with Georgie Fame and Van Morrison.

IIRC (and I often don't) the only known footage of Brownie is from the Soupy Sales show. Perhaps that's why they invited him.

Lester's later playing?

IIRC they named both of them as "inspirations" for the film on the poster! (At least in the US)
