Steve Lacy 'The Complete Jaguar Sessions' (Fresco Jazz)

Looks like he has stopped performing in clubs or concerts. Hope he is enjoying a well-deserved retirement!

Jacques Dieval was a good-humored pianist with fair technique and somehow limited imagination. A video of Dieval with Woody Shaw, Nathan Davis, Jacques B. Hess on bass and Franco Manzecchi on drums in 1965 http://www.ina.fr/art-et-culture/musique/video/I09282965/nathan-davis-woody-shaw-et-jack-dieval-en-studio.fr.html

, LPs 2 and 3 A favorite Mosaic box!

Indeed! So was the Cecil Taylor 'Nefertiti, the Beautiful One Has Come'! That's cool! Is it possible to view the original photos anywhere? They were published back in late 1965 in the French review 'Jazz Hot' which is where Marta Roling saw them and copied the images for her Fontana cover art. The photos illustrated a series of articles I wrote after a visit to New York. The series was titled 'Autumn in New York'.

Is this a reissue of the Crown album? Is this different from this LP on Metrojazz ( which incidentally sounds great) Yes! Two different albums. Now enjoying: Albert Burbank Big Eye Nelson (Dan Japan)

A Selmer 503 that belonged to Django is currently on display at the 'Django Reinhardt, Swing de Paris' exhibition at the Paris Cité de la Musique. The guitar was given to the Music Museum back in 1964 by Django's widow Naguine.

Is this a reissue of the Crown album? It is! And it sounds better than the Crown LPs I have listened to... Now spinning: Grant Green 'I Want to Hold Your Hand' (BN Japan)

No Monday Nights at The Village Vanguard or at The Blue Note (and probably other) clubs in New York.
