  1. Can one pre-order this anywhere?
  2. Possible but he says it just as the style changes and all the other "visitors" play on the cut.
  3. In the notes to "The Complete CBS Recordings of Eddie Condon and his All Stars" Dick Cary is listed as being on alto horn for the session of 6/24/54 but neither the notes nor the discography mention him on piano. However on "Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gave to Me" Condon can clearly be heard (at about 1:12 and 5:10) announcing "Dick Cary", at which point I presume Gene Schroeder turns over the keyboard to him. (Actually it sounds like they might have had two pianos). Jus checked both Discogs and Lord's and he's not listed on piano for that date in either. Hey have I just made an incredibly minor discographical find?
  4. Bregman agrees in his notes to The Complete Bird at Birdland 1950-1951 set, though he suggests the dates is May 15/16.
  5. I think I'm missing something (often the case). I don't see anything in the logs for 1943 that mention Bird or any of the other players.
  6. Yes it was Lester Leaps In on The Complete Legendary Rockland Palace Concert. And Eastwood did use that same cut in Bird.
  7. A survivor of the Tulsa massacre.
  8. Ditto. (I once searched half a dozen up-scale super-markets in order to find Concert in the Garden which was originally only available packaged with a couple of bottles of wine. )
  9. She was an artist in residence and gave a concert with students at the local community college here in Santa Barbara. I somehow didn't find out about it until after she'd left. No sure I missed much since when she was back in town for a beautiful concert I did see, she announced from the stage that this was the first time she'd been in Santa Barbara. Also saw her in Ojai at the music festival there when Dawn Upshaw was the guest director. Schneider and her band gave a morning concert and then in the pm backed Upshaw in a piece Upshaw had commissioned from her. Not sure the latter was jazz but both were pretty great.
  10. I don't quite get the comparison: Bandcamp sells music, Spotify streams it for either a fee or your having to listen to commercials.
  11. I gotta admit I listened to the first disc once so far but keep playing the 2nd disc. I'll. start giving the first one a shot again. And as much as I love Maria Schneider I think her liner notes are batty-- but maybe I'm batty and she's the sane one.
  12. Good to know. Does that mean that you sold directly to Amazon and got paid? (None of my business, I realize, but I'm curious.)
  13. I guess that means we shouldn't order from Amazon.

  15. This is remarkable in a number of ways: a chance to see which instruments Gil used in different passages (though in one place there are definitely instruments you can hear but can't see), a great performance from musicians who are not physically together and a beautiful job of combining images. Also, at times the trumpet player does some very nice improvisations that differ from Miles's.
  16. Just listed on Facebook and Twitter: Antone's Record Shop @AntonesRecords Mosaic CD Box sets!

  18. https://www.independent.com/2020/08/06/testing-remain-a-major-problem-in-santa-barbara-county/ This is, of course, only anecdotal but it does suggest that the number of infections is under-reported which would mean that if the death toll is accurate then the death rate from covid is lower than reported. OTOH what is listed as the cause of death if you've never been tested? In any case it sure sounds like it's a lot worse than the flu or even pneumonia. Says the guy who has reacted strongly enough to other people's posts that they've left the board.
  19. In case you think it. can't get worse: https://www.wbaltv.com/article/baltimore-mail-delays-continue-no-mail-in-weeks/33535355?fbclid=IwAR0w1l0Q_rbkoG5eaFc5BkB0k3xr3ixdTCv0eW4eN_8fo_FnCbg8ww4PiVE
  20. I guess Sackville doesn't count being Canadian.
  21. I agree. I didn't want to argue with him but I would think that if you own the rights to sell recordings then you own the rights to sell downloads. It may be different with streaming rights.
  22. Love those recordings. Missed the Mosaic but got the Blue Note cd that had some added cuts. Tried to buy a copy of the Mosaic booklet but they were out of it, so Scott (I think) sent me a Xerox of it gratis!
  23. I bought my copy from Buell. Paid cash. Never asked about alternates.
  24. I hadn't read this anywhere and I contacted someone (Ted Gioia iirc) who had written about the song but not mentioned it. Said he'd put it in the next edition.
