The cd combines the single Lp of the same title plus adds the "bonus" material. IIRC there was once a reissue double Lp combing the American and European songs Lps but not this extra material so no Pops there.

"Lenya Sings Weill: The American Theater Songs." MHK60647. Despite the title it also contains songs from Cabaret and Mother Courage.

There's about 5 minutes of dialogue between the 2 as Louis tries to teach Lenya about syncopation. It's on a Lenya/ Weil cd that Avakian produced.

Sorry but I've lost the thread....which record is that?

Sounds like it contains Louis trying to teach Lotte Lenya syncopate on Mack the Knife.

Just so no one gets the wrong impression, what he said was "Yeah, I regurgitated. It was so phenomenal, so emphatic … It was more music than I ever heard anyone play at one time. I just couldn't believe how great it was."

Wow! Thank you Ricky: https://virtualexhibits.louisarmstronghouse.org/2020/08/28/bop-bop-bop-the-charlie-parker-centennial/?fbclid=IwAR3MGi30YodBfRBOmAWoqas6jLqceEtvFpq2t8wddZEsiea7tKun86EFiz0 Here is all 45 Minutes!

Can one pre-order this anywhere?

Possible but he says it just as the style changes and all the other "visitors" play on the cut.

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?

Bregman agrees in his notes to The Complete Bird at Birdland 1950-1951 set, though he suggests the dates is May 15/16.

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.

Yes it was Lester Leaps In on The Complete Legendary Rockland Palace Concert. And Eastwood did use that same cut in Bird.

Uhh. Yes.

A survivor of the Tulsa massacre.

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. )

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.

I don't quite get the comparison: Bandcamp sells music, Spotify streams it for either a fee or your having to listen to commercials.

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.

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.)

I guess that means we shouldn't order from Amazon.

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.
