Derek Gripper, Libraries on Fire

The book feels like you are in Buddy Guy's house as a friend, and he's telling you stories of his life--and he is a very good storyteller. I do recall being offended by some article or review that David Ritz wrote in the 1970s, perhaps in some local publication, where he was comparing Roland Kirk to James Clay, putting down Roland Kirk.

Yes, that's the co-author.

I would recommend Buddy Guy's book (well, it is "co-authored"), When I Left Home. His recollections of his childhood and early days in Chicago are quite vivid and entertaining. In one story, he and B.B. King go to see Gene Ammons in a Chicago club. (Just the fact that this happened makes me happy.)

If you have conflicts, that means it's a good festival.

Paul Winter, Rio (Sony)

My wristband also came today.

LA Four, Pavane Pour Une Infante Defunte (East Wind)

Of the Joe Farrell Quartet, Canned Funk, Outback, Moon Germs, Penny Arcade, and Upon This Rock, I like all of them.

Leroy Vinnegar, Leroy Walks Again (Contemporary) George Cables, Cables Vision (Contemporary)

Marion Brown Quartet, Five Improvisations

The Big Ears Festival App has now been updated for 2019. Also, there have been changes to the schedule. Now tentatively considering the following schedule: Thursday: 7-8: Bill Frisell and Thomas Morgan, Standard 8:30-9:30: Derek Gripper, Knoxville Museum of Art 10-11: Artifacts Trio, St. John's Friday: 12-1: Bela Fleck and Edmar Castaneda, St. John's 2-3: Larry Grenadier, St. John's 4-5: Shai Maestro, St. John's 5:30-6:30: Ralph Towner, St. John's 7-8: ABSINT, Standard 8:45-9:45: David Torn, Standard 12-1: Fire!, Standard Saturday: 12-1: Columbia Icefield, Standard 2-3: Wadada Leo Smith, Standard 4-5: Thumbscrew, Standard 5-6:15: Carla Bley Trio, Tennessee Theater 6:15-7:15: Tim Berne, Bijou Theater 7:45-9: DeJohnette Coltrane Garrison, Tennessee Theater 9:30-11: Makaya McCraven, Mill and Mine 12-1: Sons of Kemet, Mill and Mine Sunday 1-2: Vijay Iyer and Craig Taborn, Tennessee Theater

It's a $25,000 prize. As awards go, you would rather win a Doris Duke Foundation jazz master award (top tier of $275,000 and lower tier of $80,000), or a MacArthur Foundation genius award ($625,000).

Mike DiRubbo Quartet, Live at Smalls (SmallsLIVE)

My only experience was a lackluster performance, giving rise to feelings of disappointment. No one was insulted or abused within my field of observation.

The last great Mingus band was the last band Mingus played in. In the meantime, Presenting the Gerry Mulligan Sextet (Emarcy)

Sun Ra, Monorails and Satellites, volumes 1,2 and 3 (Cosmic Myth)

Charlie Parker Memorial volume 2 (Savoy) Barney Kessell, Volume 1, Easy Like (Contemporary)

Joey Defrancesco, In the Key of the Universe (Mack Avenue). Nice to hear a new recording of Pharoah Sanders (on three of the tracks).

Too late now... 02/28/19 Kenny Werner Trio with Ari Hoenig and Johannes Weidenmueller Texas University of North Texas United States Add Time: 7:30pm. BUY TICKETS

It is odd; I have the exact same issue viewing the schedule on the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival website.

I cannot view the schedule when using a Windows computer which employs internet explorer. On my home computer, a Mac using Safari, the schedule is viewable. Also, I can view it on my iPhone. So you might try viewing it through your phone.

Actually, none of the elevators that I ride on have music. Does music in elevators exist anymore?
