Oops I bought it already. Sound is generally good (mono); Gary Burton is a slight bit loud relative to Stan Getz at times in the mix.

I believe the label name is The Lost Reoordings. www.thelostrecordings.store Sony is listed as distributer. Made in the EU and seems to be of French origin.

Recently I've been up in the Colony a few times. Really dislike the area. Very overcrowded. Insane speeding aggressive drivers. Strip malls and chain restuarants and stores everywhere. Suburbia and freeway nightmare.

Actually, I just checked after entertaining the thought of going, and both nights are sold out.

It appears to be a new place, so they may not know any better.

One should only make a cancelable hotel reservation that does not require prepayment. From Dallas by air, American Airlines is the only option, so a one-sided policy is a guarantee. The opinion of someone for every music festival in the World.

Richard Groove Holmes and Ernie Watts, Come Together (World Pacific) Keith Jarrett, Bremen-Lausanne Solo Concerts (ECM) 70s reissue/Conn CD/Tone Poet here. Only 3.

I saw him live one time at Sweet Basil in 1997.

Found an original pressing of Got a Good Thing Goin' in the cut-out bin of a department store back in the 1970s.

The Tone Poet All Seeing Eye sounds fabulous; much better than my blue 1970s era pressing.

The wonderful live music bar in New York City, the 55 Bar, is in danger of closing. Here is their GoFundMe campaign. https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-us-keep-the-55-bar-alive Adored by patrons and musicians alike, 55 Bar is utterly unique in the New York City music scene; an unfussy, inexpensive, dive bar where audiences can watch some of the world’s best jazz and blues musicians from ten feet away. It’s a club where brilliant newcomers can launch their careers and seasoned professionals can workshop new compositions before going out on the road. Regulars include Mike Stern, Leni Stern, Wayne Krantz, David Binney, Adam Rogers, Henry Hey, Keith Carlock, Tim Lefebvre, KJ Denhert, Sweet Georgia Brown, Tessa Souter, Kendra Shank, Ayana Lowe, Duchess, Thana Alexa, Nicole Zuraitis, Ben Monder, Jim Ridl, Jim Campilongo and many, many more. Now, in an all too familiar story, this iconic venue is in danger of closing; however... 55 Bar is savable. The numbers are perhaps too big for the 55 Bar to handle alone, but completely achievable through a wider effort. To that end, we appreciate any and all donations and thank you kindly for reading, for sharing, and for your support over the years. We are all excited to continue the dream of supporting and keeping accessible...great music and incredibly talented musicians!

I purchased my pass just now. Really looking forward to this. I did notice that hotels seemed to be fuller than usual when I booked a couple of weeks ago, so I would advise taking care of that sooner rather than later if planning to attend.

And between the ages of 85-88, he released nine new albums!

I heard him play piano with a group including Buddy Tate, Norris Turney, Slam Stewart, Scott Hamilton, and Warrant Vache at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival in 1987. Much later (in 2016), again in New Orleans at Jazz Fest, he came out on stage beaming after a Geri Allen set dedicated to Errol Garner.

Smalls honoring veteran musicians. We decided to honor several musicians who have had impact on our Smalls eco-system by creating the "SmallsLIVE Living Masters Award". Our criterion is that the musician must be 65 years or older. He or she must have had a significant career in jazz and recognition by their peers and, finally, had to have had a relationship with Smalls (or Mezzrow). This award has two components. One is a cash award to the recipient and the other component is a live performance and recording at the club. Our goal is to benefit and document these lifelong artists. The first award went to a project co-led by Tyler Mitchell and saxophonist Marshall Allen (96 years old). They did an amazing live show that we preserved with audio and video recordings. The second recipient arrives today to New York from France, the great Kirk Lightsey. It's our great honor to bring Kirk back to the city, first time back since the pandemic. He will perform at Smalls on Tuesday night and Mezzrow on Wednesday. Thursday afternoon we will be doing a closed door recording of Kirk's group that features Mark Whitfield, Santi Debreano and Victor Lewis. The third recipient will is the wonderful Sheila Jordan and she will do her project along with Alan Broadbent and Harvie S on October 25th. Other musicians chosen for this award include, Steve Nelson, George Cables, Victor Lewis, Frank Lacy and David Liebman. Please watch for them as we announce their upcoming concert dates.
