kh1958

Actually, I misspelled his name in the heading, it is Irvin, not Irwin.

If you are still interested in this record, I saw a copy today--at the HPB at Central and Beltline in Richardson (SW corner).

It's all sounds so brazen; it is amazing he would have thought he could get away with it.

One never knows until you hear it. I've had great experiences with similarly elderly musicians (Doc Cheatum, Randy Weston, Benny Waters), whereas seeing Clark Terry was a sad experience. Earlier the same day, I saw Henry Gray (ex Howlin' Wolf pianist), of a similar age, and he literally collapsed near the end of his set. It actually appeared he might be dying on stage. Fortunately, after awhile he rallied and walked off with assistance.

I saw Lee Konitz in early May of 2017 at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. It was not at all as described above. He soloed on every song and played beautifully. In fact, the sheer beauty of his alto sound was rather stunning. I would say his solos were not of extreme length (he was 89 at the time)--so it's not like hearing a performance of Motion--but he did ample playing in an hour long set. Also, he did hum/sing in addition to playing alto sax, which was a bit odd, but I didn't find I minded it too much. I would definitely attend another performance by him, if presented with the chance.

My only opportunity was a two night engagement at the Caravan of Dreams in Fort Worth, May 10-11, 1985. Naturally I went both nights and heard four sets. Terence Blanchard was the musical director, with Mulgrew Miller, Lonnie Plaxico, Donald Harrison, and Jean Toussaint. On Saturday night, Marchel Ivery joined the group towards the end of the second set. Two weeks before this, I heard Sphere at the Caravan, and then a couple of weeks afterwards, Horace Silver. About the same time, also Miles Davis at a theater in Dallas.

Fred McDowell, You Gotta Move (Arhoolie)

Eddie Costa-Vinnie Burke Trio (Jubilee)

Eddie Harris, A Study in Jazz (Vee Jay) Yes, I was a bit surprised when I picked this up at the record store recently and looked at the brief notes on the back and it referenced Mingus, Fats Navarro, and Wes Montgomery. Also, Leo "the Whistler" Shepard on trumpet is, I assume, the man playing the high note trumpet to rival Cat Anderson. Pretty good sound too.

The documentary The Festival, covering the Newport Folk Festival from 1963-1966, from the Criterion Collection. The performances included are short/edited/fragmentary, but there is some great stuff to see (Son House, Mississippi John Hurt, Fred McDowell, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, John Lee Hooker (bonus material), the Butterfield Blues Band, with and without Dylan, Odetta). There is also plenty of folk as one might expect (Pete Seeger, Joan Baez, Judy Collins, Peter Paul and Mary, etc.), acoustic and electric Dylan, gospel and country (Johnny Cash). A pretty fun viewing experience, overall, and an interesting cultural snapshot of popularity of folk music in the early 1960s.
