I probably read this when it was first published.

I believe that the Canadian company Naxos were sued (and lost) for importing such cds into the states. Too bad, since they have a great series of Ellington cds which include some cuts that aren't available elsewhere. Unfortunately my son is getting tired of answering my copyright questions. ( I think he's going to start billing me for his time.) . But I'll bug him about this anyway. Huh?

Don't think it was ever that but it was more than the 50 years after publication that used to be used in Europe. Also I'm curious about who the author of a sound recording is or are they all "works of corporate authorship".

I guess that would be Mount Allison. (Is it still called that? Have I spelled it correctly?)

What?! I grew up in Fredericton. Where did you live in NB?

Dolomite is My Name... which I loved and which features the Bihari Brothers as well as The Dunbar Hotel.

What's the rational for that gap? (I haven't finished reading the booklet yet, so maybe it's explained there.)

14:57 2 Body & Soul Written-By – Ben Webster, Johnny Green 20:25 3 How'd Ben Webster get the writer's credit on Body and Soul?

Ernie "Bubbles" Whitman was the mc on many Jubilee shows. IIRC he has a small part in Stormy Weather as James Reese Europe.

Yeh, I've always been pissed off by Pete Weldings liner notes for The Return of Art Pepper where he wastes a lot fo space knocking Sheldon's contribution. (And IIRC Mosaic reprinted those notes in their Pepper Select.)

Well I do remember it. Can't say that for everything from 1964.

More than 50 years ago I saw this in Copenhagen with Dreyer present to introduce it.

How do you know her name?

Good book. Has some structural resemblance to David Benioff's "City of Thieves".

Wow! Thanks.

Where's The Paradise Theatre?

The Mosaic has at least one cd's worth of Basie/Pres that's not in the original ITunes release. (They're both from The Museum. )

Way cheaper than I've seen it.

IIRC There is a 3 disc Criterion set.

Saw her live once. The real deal.

IIRC it was an edition of 20,000. If they sold them all it is easily their biggest selling set.

1939 was a great year and Ford was in his prime.

I once saw a brand new 35mm print of Wuthering Heights. It looked amazing.

Me too.

I interviewed Zappa about his film 200 Motels. It was back stage at The Rock Pile (really an old Masonic Hall) in Toronto and both The Mothers and most of Blood, Sweat and Tears were present. Both bands were happy to be sharing a bill with another group that included horn players. Zappa began talking about a Chicago band called CTA that also had horn players, saying that if all three band could get a gig together they could do some interesting stuff. He was much more benign towards his audiences that he was with Larry. He talked about how he would get letters from kids who wrote that they were the only freaks in their town and his records made them feel that they were not alone in the world. The biggest negative about the interview for me was that he had a very demeaning attitude toward women and kept talking about "strapping them on". I once saw the Mothers on a double bill with The Mahavishnu Orchestra in Maple Leaf Gardens. Ian Underwood played on many of the film recording sessions I attended. From Frank Zappa to Elmer Bernstein.
