  1. I recommend Little Steven's Underground Garage.
  2. Reading it again I think I do know who killed Owen Taylor.
  3. I ordered it directly from Sleepy Night records https://www.sleepynight-shop.com/product/coming-soon-miles-davis-the-lost-quintet Took about a week to get here and because of shipping cost about $21.
  4. Popular? Maybe Morgan, but their last Mobley set took forever to sell out.
  5. Sanctuary is so long because the track includes I Fall in Love too Easily (or at least something that hints at it.).
  6. I've been pleasantly surprised. I knew so little about Herman that I didn't know I was going to hear some Ben Webster, Budd Johnson and Johnny Hodges on these cds.
  7. To confuse the issue even more: whenever I noticed references to Helen Morgan I thought of the torch singer from the '30s.
  8. I find the opposite. As I get older 5 years goes by in a flash. To crib from Douglas Adams: "Everything is recent since The Beatles Broke Up."
  9. And you can download it at Amazon. BTW I notice that some concerts by the lost quintet were recorded by ORTF so Sony could probably get tapes. The Lost Quintet would make a great Bootleg Vol 7.
  10. Probably the 3rd or 4th time I've read The Big Sleep but this is really good. Every facing page is reserved for annotations some of which are mini essays, almost all are interesting. Maybe it will even explain who killed Owen Taylor.
  11. I got an e-mail saying my Herman set had shipped. BTW Your Dad's in for a treat.
  12. IIRC he bought the Lionel train company.
  13. Me too. Probably last photo I'll ever buy but I had to have it. Also Leonard's Dexter and Francis Wolfe Trane. (2 of them). One by unknown photographer of Miles and one director Paul Brickman took of Bill Evans.
  14. I'm really enjoying this-- though there are too many "novelty" pieces on the first disc for me. It gets better and better as it goes along. The sides with Dexter Gordon are his first as a leader and I'm struck by how Lestorian he is here.
  15. I can't believe this is still available. The two Basie discs are must-haves.
  16. Upping this because IO'm still curious and can't find anything on Google. Could someone point out for me (a layman) examples of Oscar Moore employing flatted Fifths?
  17. Could someone point out for me (a layman) examples of Oscar Moore employing flatted Fifths?
  18. me too, but I avoid the 154 whenever possible even if it takes me a bit longer.
  19. https://www.noozhawk.com/article/solvang_woman_killed_highway_154_crash_children_names_dna_testing There's a lot more to this but it might get political
  20. IIRC they often contained cuts missing from the companion single cd issues.
  21. Wasn't Connie Kay a regular on these recordings?
  22. What private company would send a letter to Alaska for the price of a stamp? Not everything is done to make money.
  23. NeVer knew a "complete edition" existed.
