There's a DVD of an early 90s concert of a trio of Rypdal/Vitous/Triloc Girtu that is pretty fantastic.

The Best of Don Patterson and the Jazz Giants (Prestige) on saxophones, Sonny Stitt, David Newman, Junior Cook, Charles McPherson, George Coleman, and Houston Person. on trumpet--Blue Mitchell, Howard McGhee, and Virgil Jones. on guitar--Pat Martino.

Why? I mean, I'm sure you must get something out of that or you wouldn't do it - but what? MG It's called the Shuffle feature on the ipod. You listen to songs randomly from the songs on the ipod harddrive. This means that you might hear a Coltrane song, followed by Charlie Parker, followed by the Beatles, followed by Milton Nasciminto, followed by Muddy Waters, etc. It's a great way to listen to music. In other words, the ipod is a radio station that only plays the music that you like.

Yes, from the 1990s. That must be from the long-closed Recovery Room in Dallas. While I saw Marshel Ivory there and James Clay also, I never heard Red Garland.

db4-you nuts? i would never listen to anything put out by that mulleted schmoe. Here are a couple that should change your opinion. http://www.amazon.com/Marchel-Ivory-Meets-...2911&sr=1-2 http://www.amazon.com/3-Marchel-Ivery/dp/B00001X52S/ref=ntt_mus_ep_dpt_1

I don't know but this sounds good, so I ordered one from an amazon seller--$3 plus shipping.

Yes indeed.

It's some form of collectors mania. Mosaic sets are nice, but I would rather have 100 OJCs that one Mosaic set.

Elmo Hope/Bertha Hope--Hope-Full--Riverside LP. Steve Kuhn Trio--Live at Birdland (Blue Note) Eddie Bert--Encore (Savoy) David Murray Octet--Home (Black Saint) Hal McKusick--Triple Exposure (OJC) Steve Lacy--Reflections (OJC) Earl Hines and the Duke's men (Delmark)

Yes, if you like Cannonball (like me), you need Inside Straight. You can get it from an amazon seller for only $8, plus shipping. I don't know about Pyramid, as I've never heard it.

As I said, there are many more knowledgeable fans of Brazilian music at allaboutjazz. Personally, my favorite Brazilian artists include the following: Milton Nascimento, Djavan, Caetano Veloso, Carlinhos Brown, Marissa Monte, Joyce, Gilberto Gil, Baden Powell, Luis Bonfa, Bola Sete, Jorge Ben. I would be happy to recommend recordings by any of these artists, but most I would recommend fall out of your 1950s-60s time limitation.

You might want to check out allaboutjazz.com--there's a very extensive Brazilian music thread (though it's been dormant lately). The very well informed poster clave presides over this thread. One recently reissued recording that I highly recommend is Luiz Bonfa, Solo In Rio 1959. This is an absolutely great accoustic guitar record.

It never sounded better in my day, but perhaps Boris Rose had a serious antennae that minimized the interference and distortion.

Eddie "Lockjaw" Davis with Johnny Griffin and Junior Mance, The Breakfast Show (Live at Minton's)--Prestige (1965 reissue)--a nearly flawless copy, found on Friday for $10.

Johnny Taylor is a rhythm and blues vocalist.

The next batch of Jazz Icons DVDs is likely to include a 90 minute Wes Mongomery DVD. Excerpt: http://reelinintheyears.com/client/?&f...p=0&show=10

Saturday March 31: Kenny Barron Trio at North Texas Jazz Festival in Addison.

Milano Strut (versions on Shakill's Warrior) and the Black Saint record (a duet with Don Moye).

John Meheagan wrote a series of jazz piano instruction books, "Contemporary Styles for the Jazz Pianist" which were considered pretty good at one time, mostly for the left-hand chord voicings. A lot of this stuff is old-hat by now, but at the time this may have been the only place to read about this kind of thing. I've never heard his recordings. How would you describe his style? He's "Progressive," allegedlly taking the best elements of bop but restoring the left hands of Jelly Roll Morton and Art Tatum. To me, he sounds stiff and very much like a Classical pianist trying to play jazz. The record is part-solo piano, and part piano-drums (Kenny Clarke). The liner notes are a lecture by "Uncus" about the influence of Classical music on jazz: e.g., "West Coast Progessive (1948-): basic Neo Classic influence, Bach, Handel. Modern Classicism--Hindemith." I have another pretty rare ten inch John Mehegan, From Barrellhouse to Bop, with Charles Mingus on bass. Despite the presence of Mingus, I don't like this one either. I just happened to finally come across some John Mehegan tracks that I do like--it's on the Savoy CD (sorry wrong forum) I Just Love Jazz Piano--in addition to three tracks by Hampton Hawes, Herbie Nichols, and Paul Smith, there are three fine Mehegan tracks with Mingus and Kenny Clarke--Mingus is in an agressive mood this time and virtually takes over the proceedings. I just wish I had the original LP.

I think this has been discussed before but, there are: The two David Murrays--Shakill's Warrior and Shakill II, on DIW. There's a single (great) track of organ on Pullen's Milano Strut (Black Saint). Jack Walrath's Serious Hang. Two LPs on Mainstream by Charles Williams (I haven't seen these have on CD).
