I've stopped buying books about Dylan or Miles (between them they fill a shelf ) but I'm still buying Ellingtonia.

I bet there are even more on Bob Dylan.

I thought I 'd posted about this, but can't find it: even though I'm inept at this kind of thing I was easily able to jerry rig a potable cd player with a cheap device that plays the music through an unused frequency on your fm dial.

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.
