  1. I've never seen the 12/24/ Miles session combined on either Lp or cd. What's it look like?
  2. Yes. Once at the El Mocambo and once somewhere east of Yonge which for some reason I remember (probably incorrectly) as being below street level.
  3. It is on the 2 cd Storyville Cotton Club set. BTW Volume 1 of the Masters of Jazz Ellington series has a piano roll of Jig Walk they incorrectly attribute to him.
  4. Listening to it right now.
  5. As Bill Murray says in Stripes:
  6. I think of my retirement as a never ending vacation. Think of the things you like to do when on vacation and do them.
  7. Do you mean the mask-opposed are more liable to have already contracted the disease? https://www.harvardpress.com/Features/Feature-Articles/to-your-health-the-swiss-cheese-model-of-pandemic-defense
  8. And Robertson collaborated with Gil Evans on The Color of Money soundtrack. Even used a left over orchestra riff on one of his own songs (twice).
  9. Good article but I'm not sure that the analogy to songs from 1941 works. Nobody was listening to them even 40 years later but we still hear a lot of music from nearly 60 years ago. This article doesn't take into consideration the chasm caused by rock n'roll (and be-bop). Of course there could be another such chasm around the corner......
  10. The names confuse the issue: e.g. I think Warner's Music has no connection to Warner Bros. films and Universal has none to Universal films.

    Gil Evans & Ten

    Bob Dylan writes about this Lp in his (sort of) autobiography.
  12. Pretty sure that's all there is.
  13. Is the first sax solo on Fables Handy or Jordan?
  14. IIRC He also had some connection to Don King/ Ali.
  15. My guess is that Bill would have owned the "avant-garde" recordings and John/Bill the rest. Or maybe just John. An amazingly eclectic catalogue. I was fortunate enough to be present at a couple of the recordings.
  16. Are the Sackville recordings still in print?
  17. I'd still pick this one:
  18. IIRC the only time I ever saw him was with Blakey nearly 60 years ago.
  19. That's a pretty funny review and not unwarranted.
  20. Me too. As I said elsewhere I think if they ship it within the next couple of weeks this will be the shortest time between an informal announcement of a set and it's actual shipping. (Well maybe it was faster in the earlier days.)
  21. A few weeks ago I ordered a used cd via Amazon and later realised I already had it. It went into the USPS system and never came out. I used the Amazon site to inform the dealer who immediately refunded my money. It's better to be lucky than smart.

    Bob Dylan corner

    I make fun of myself by pointing out It was the first Dylan record I bought . I thought I was too hip to buy rock and roll or folk-- only jazz Lps for me. Not sure why I bought it but I liked it. Most of the Dylan Heads I knew didn't. (I knew several people who had been folkies and only got into rock when Dylan went electric. ) I bought every Dylan after that as soon as they came out until Slow Train. Blood on the Tracks really sealed the deal for me. I think the most underrated record is Street Legal.
  23. It has, I believe, a pair of tracks not found elsewhere: the rehearsal (?) for Ebony Rhapsody parts one and two.
