  1. https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2021-02-17/texas-severe-weather-power-crisis-secession
  2. I believe that it was vetted. i.e Savory recorded everything as part of his job. What's in the collection is what he thought was worth saving and he had pretty good taste.
  3. I first learned of Hampton because of Howard Alk's 1971 film "The Murder of Fred Hampton". (Alk's own life story is pretty sad.)
  4. "Judas and the Black Messiah" uses Kirk's "Inflated Tear" at the opening of the film and as punctuation several times in the film. (The credits suggest they use both the original recording and some re-recordings by the film's composers, one of whom is Mark Isham.) It also uses "Fleurette Africaine" from the Money Jungle Lp near the beginning of the film.
  5. Sorry I don't meet your rigorous standards of diction. I guess I should have said they will not make potential income.
  6. This music will not go up in value. Each year it is worth less as the fans for it die off. Eventually it will be in the public domain. (Unfortunately I will not be alive.)
  7. I think I only saw him live when he and Herbie Hancock toured as a duet.
  8. The Savory Collection material with Charlie Christian and Prez (not together) as well as their Ellington holdings. They're being held up by the rapaciousness of the Benny Goodman and Ellington estates. (Both of whom will lose potential income as a result.)
  9. Chick Corea supplied liner notes to the Legacy reissue of Captain Marvel in which he says the RTF had already formed but wasn't getting many gigs so when he heard Getz needed a band for a tour he called him and suggested the RTF members plus Tony Williams.
  10. Made the front page of the LA Times. Here's the inside the paper obit: https://www.latimes.com/entertainment-arts/music/story/2021-02-11/chick-corea-jazz-fusion-keyboard-died
  11. Can we put the same post on 2 different threads? The Max Roach Quintet had Ray Draper on tuba.
  12. Arggg.... You might try just going to the place you got the first one 4 weeks (or whenever was recommended for the kind you got) and showing the proof that had the first one. That's what they're telling people to do at Dodger Stadium if they don't get a second appointment.
  13. Now I did get the notification for second shot. Yeh and he's had 3 weeks.
  14. Yes. Plus one other I found on YouTube.
  15. I've managed to get hold of a lot of the 47-52 material. It's not all great.
  16. I bought the standard edition. No flex disc included. (Not that I have a turntable.)
  17. http://www.plosin.com/milesahead/BirdSessions.aspx?s=481122 This is discussed in the thread about "Chasin' the Bird". BTW I'd still like to find the records (or rather the music from them) somehow.
  18. BTW HOw did Chan get her name? I've read her book too but can't remember.
  19. Wow I've never seen that before. This is the one I remember. Is that one even Frances?
  20. I think Frances was also on the cover of The Black Hawk Lps. (She was the hostess at a Hamburger Hamlet I sometimes ate at in LA.) LA Times handles it well, I think. Mentions her marriage to Miles (and his abuse) only in the last paragraph of a long obit. https://www.latimes.com/obituaries/story/2021-01-28/cicely-tyson-dies
  21. I remember seeing that and wondering "Wow that model really looks like Cicely Tyson". IIRC Her relationship with Miles wasn't that well known at the time-- at least not by me.
  22. What state are you in? I've had the same experience in California but I keep reading that I will be contacted re: 2nd shot.
  23. Just saw this film on Amazon Prime. Maybe because I watched it in 2 sittings I thought it got more focused and more interesting in the second half. The long section on the preparations for Monk's Town Hall concert is terrific as is the story of drummer Ron Free.
  24. This is still available from Amazon. (Takes some digging.)
