Hampton Hawes 'The Seance'(Contemporary)

...and stick around this time Like your new avatar! Any special meaning (escape? or just Bresson fan?)

Merci, familiar and very cool! The video is included in the 'D'autres Nouvelles des Etoiles' double DVD which came out last year from Universal Music.

Joyeux Anniversaire

It's March 15. Time to get this off the ground! Hope the couple of missing envelopes will reach their destination very soon!

Nope. Could the guitarist be Mike Pingatore who is listed as playing himself in the credits? He is also known as Mike Pingitore who played guitar with the Paul Whiteman orchestra and also on sessions with Billie Holiday. I'm not so sure about Jack Lesberg being the bass player...

Short, but amazing! You want more ? Art Tatum - "Humouresque" Merci

Planning to start a discussion thread tomorrow!

Albert Ayler 'The Hilversum Session' (Osmosis) with Don Cherry, Gary Peacock, Sonny Murray

Hal McKusick did retire even though he still performs from time to time. Remember reading somewhere he was flying airplanes in the Caribbean at some point.

A drumming trio! Would never have thought of Shiraki!

akanalog, thanks for your non-recommendation. I suffer from the same disease as ubu, too many discs! I'll skip that one!

I'm unfamiliar with her... Any idea if Michael Garrick/Norma Winstone 'Heart Is a Lotus' is a representative disc. Saw a copy of it recently. Worth picking up?

A record? $5,016 for this Jackie McLean New Tradition

Rahsaan Roland Kirk 'The Return of the 5000lb. Man' (Warner Bros.)

Sorry to hear about that Seems the Russian mail handlers are the rough type!

5 is Philly Joe Jones 6 is Louis Hayes No idea who 4 is. Looks like a visitor from Japan! Nice photo!

More news from Bettie Page... From AP today:

Andrew Cyrille 'Special People' (Soul Note) with Ted Daniels, David Ware, Nick de Geronimo

Dizzy Reece 'Manhattan Project' (BeeHive)

Short, but amazing! Wish we could also see Spike Jones

Agree. Also finding out now that some of the discs have yet to arrive...

this seems very good Brownie. too hard to find this one? Marcus Marcus, it looks like this one has not been reissued. Only saw this vinyl once and grabbed it right away!

wigwise, I really liked Patty Waters but not sure I 'enjoyed' it! A very emotional set and a quite unique experience. She has to be heard live! As for Parisian jazz activities, there is no dedicated jazz site that can help but you can always check the Figaroscope listings Not complete bit I do not know of any more thorough site.
