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.

I sometimes photocopy them and throw them in to the box.

IIRC they were on a Columbia (or a subsidiary) of the Hawkins and Young sessions. Don't see the one I had in the photos above. I think I traded it after the Mosaic came out. (There were no other Lester Young sessions on Signature were there? )

The Signatures "led" by Welles are in one of the Mosaic Basie/Young sets.

Did everyone but me already know about this? It's been up since July.

And many more!

I want that! Will PM you.

Did everyone but me know Pesci was a singer: https://thebluemoment.com/ ?

On Episode 6 of Watchmen there is a sequence that takes place in a club in an alternate history/universe 1938. On the wall there is a poster with a picture of a saxophone player and the name "Lester LeJeune". This may be the most subtle visual jazz joke I've ever seen. BTW the episode has a couple of nice Ink Spot cuts on the soundtrack.

I think it was produced in 1969 so she would have been 23 or so.

Footloose.

Just came back from seeing The Skatalites. Not jazz but hang in there and you will find yourself dancing.
