Found this really interesting. I knew Michael Snow was on Elevator in the "Hotel Lobby Orchestra" or whatever it's called but didn't know he was that involved with her.

I'm going to be in New York (Brooklyn actually) all of next week. Anyone got any recommendations for music (or anything else)?

Went to an exhibit entitled "Jean-Michel Basquiat: King Pleasure" in LA last week. Though I could find no reference to the singer King Pleasure in the show or its catalogue there were several painting about jazz musicians who were Basquiat's heroes, and one whole room devoted to only paintings referencing musicians. I took photos of some of them.

Great version of the song.

I'm really enjoying this record. It's interesting how some of Miles's improvisations are reminiscent of what he recorded a few days later for Elevator to the Scaffold. (Especially some of what he plays on "What's New?".)

WOW! How'd you do that? (Never mind no reason to bore everyone else.)

According to Milt Hinton he ran into him the street and hired him for his (Gleason's) next session thus beginning Milt's studio career.

Is that a first edition? Also, I thought he'd dropped the "Ross" by then.

IIRC the SACD of KOB had an interesting 4 track setting that did put you into the middle of the recording session. Since I no longer have a SACD player I can't check it. (Anyone want my copy gratis. ) What I don't remember is how you chose between stereo or 4 track. Did the SACD player have 4 track setting? Also I hope this will lead to a quad release of the Gil Evans record that was quadrophonic (Svengali?).

4 Channel BluRay ? I have fairly small rear speakers in my tv set up. I wonder how much that matters.

I think I've read and usually enjoyed everything by Pynchon but it took me a long time to get through M&D because of the language.

Just under $19 including shipping.

Wow, where'd you get it? Losin says the release date is Oct. 2.

And of course there's the controversy as to whether it is him or Dizzy playing piano on Koko. IIRC Hakim said it was him in a Coda interview.

The Fugitive 1993 dir. Andrew Davis. Stars Harrison Ford. There is (or was) an OST: "Music by James Newton Howard featuring Wayne Shorter." Be warned: not that much Wayne on it.

Went to a screening of the "restored" version of The Fugitive and at the end of the music credits it says "Saxophone solos by Wayne Shorter" which prompted someone in the audience (not me) to shout out "Yeah, Wayne Shorter!".

I once heard that same joke told on the CBC with Lord Beaverbrook as the celebrity . It caused questions in parliament.

I'd have liked it better if he'd exchanged some of the songs he left out from those sessions with some he used.

I dunno: I really like Blood on the Tracks (especially with the originals of the ones he redid in Minnesota) which was when: '75?

Someone posted on Spotify "The Complete, Chronological Bob Dylan" consisting of 1500+ tracks. Seems to be every track from every official release with Dylan. (And maybe some not so official-- is there an official Dylan cd entitled "Sidetracks"? Ooops I see that it does exist but was never released as a cd in the US except as part of a "complete" box set. However it is on Spotify.

Cadbury Aero bars!

But did they offer vinegar? (To be honest I'm not sure it goes with poutine but you get it with french fries in Canada.)

Jack Chambers' collection of Ellington essays "Sweet Thunder" has a good chapter on the stockpile. IRRC a few of the self financed sessions were released on major labels during EKE's lifetime.
