    Bob Dylan corner

    And yet another one: There's a new two cd/Lp release coming in June.
  2. Me too. Let us know when you are. If it's before me I'll start to worry.
  3. No, but my credit card was debited.
  4. Are we (they) sure herd immunity even works with this virus? i.e. Isn't there some doubt that you can't get it twice?
  5. A mistake which I edited out. (Not sure what it is.)
  6. I just got 2 books from Amazon that arrived a day early! (Though I hear Amazon only uses USPS for the last part of the trip.)
  7. Wow. When was that? And what is it now? (I haven't been watching CNBC lately.)
  8. IIRC in the early '60s London bookmakers were giving 1000 to one odds that man wouldn't be on the moon within a decade.
  9. I just ordered it. I wonder what number I'll get.
  10. Holy shit! I just got an e-mail from Mosaic saying "This set is in the warehouse & ready to ship"
  11. Me three. Otherwise it's the ODJB and Jimmy Durante. anybody here got any Scott Joplin? (Recordings, not piano rolls.)
  12. I have a vague memory (many of my memories are vague) that I recently read the Allen's son owns kinescopes of many of the programs but wants a lot of money for them.
  13. Youtube has a few video performances from this group cannibalized from a tv show. A great record.

  15. After a long exchange of info on the Duke-LYM list serve it was concluded that the concert is from Lebanon a couple of days later. The video is from Lebanese tv. Thanks for posting it. There's a book about it: https://smile.amazon.com/Satchmo-Blows-Up-World-Ambassadors-ebook/dp/B002PAPTMM/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=JAZZ+AMBASSADORS&qid=1587871724&s=books&sr=1-1
  16. I was one of the producers of their first movie. (They were well established from their tv show by then. Fun to hang with.) I was much older than a kid when I saw this. Like the book upon which it's based it's quite entertaining. Nicholas Meyer's big breakthrough.
  17. He also doesn't seem to understand that the public will have to pay for it, just like he doesn't understand that tariffs are a tax on the receivers of imports not the exporters.
  18. Daybreak Blues by The Port of Harlem Jazzmen. But maybe Cheesecake by Dexter Gordon. (Not to be confused with Cheesecake by Louis Armstrong.)
  19. He toured with Roland Kirk: "Brian Auger was a useful young bebop pianist with Tommy Whittle and others before switching to the Hammond organ in the year he made this tour with Kirk. In 1965 the Brian Auger Trinity was joined by Julie Driscoll, Rod Stewart and Long John Baldry to form the Steam Packet, a very fine live band who never had a proper recording session. The Driscoll/Auger version of “This Wheel’s on Fire”, a Bob Dylan/Rick Danko composition circulated on the original Basement Tapes publisher’s acetates, is on anyone’s list of great ’60 singles. Later Auger formed Oblivion Express and moved to California, where he still lives, aged 80". From: https://thebluemoment.com/
  20. Great story about Louis Armstrong House. Hope it's not behind a pay wall. https://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/museums/louis-armstrongs-museum-has-gone-silent-but-pops-is-still-talking/2020/04/13/3d6ef176-7cd8-11ea-a3ee-13e1ae0a3571_story.html#comments-wrapper
  21. The dates were wrong on the cd to which I was listening. The correct date is from 1958 which explains everything.
  22. I thought wrong. It's not on the Prestige box but I have it on at least 3 different single cds. "The Unissued Cafe Bohemia Broadcast", "Rare Unreleased Broadcasts" and "The Legendary Masters Unissued or Rare."
