Before checking on this thread, I posted a New York Times article on the Frank Driggs collection earlier today: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...=0entry313351

From The New York Times today. http://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/01/nyregion/01jazz.html? For those who do not subscribe to the NY Times website...

Mark, mais oui! There is a Taschen store not very far from my place and I drop in from time to time to see if that new Claxton book has showed up. Heard good things about it but want to have a first look at it!

The Claxton 'Jazz Seen' is still very visible here. I'll be waiting for Claxton's next book (due in May or June), a very big and pretty expensive one: http://www.booksamillion.com/ncom/books?pi...30666&ad=BZTBKS

Ran Blake 'Third Stream Recompositions' (Owl) next: Warne Marsh Quintet (with Konitz and NHOP) 'Jazz Exchange, vol. 1' (Storyville)

Milford Graves and his method was written about in The New York Times a while ago: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...=milford+graves

How about Amazon? The Wolff: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/084...1255252-8823058 The Claxton: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detai...=glance&s=books Good luck!

Be sure to include the Crescent album when you search for the Impulse albums. The Coltrane classic quartet at its best!

Happy Birthday, Westbed Enjoy the music!

Cecil Taylor and... Ran Blake Paul Bley Hank Jones Martial Solal

Hope she sells great Camemberts

The interviews were bonuses. I listened to them once and may return to them but not right now. But it's the music that counts. And those CDs get a lot of play from my part. A unique box from a unique musician!

Lee Konitz & Martial Solal 'Duplicity' (Horo) Absorbing 2LP set from this very worthy label!

February 27: 1936 - Duke Ellington and his Orchestra record session for Brunswick (Clarinet Lament, Echoes of Harlem...) 1963 - The Orchestra USA record for Colpix (Debut album) 1965 - Jimmy Giuffre (with Don Friedman and Barre Phillips) at the Paris Olympia (RTE Live album) 1967 - John Coltrane (with Marion Brown,Alice Coltrane, Jimmy Garrison, Rashied Ali) record session for Impulse (still unissued) 1970 - Miles Davis record session for Columbia (Willie Nelson) and Dexter Gordon was born that day in 1923. Happy Birthday, Dex!

Is that because of the $15 dispute at the local bar? That would be deep shame

I'm an early riser.... that goes for Sundays too. And I have had the Board all to myself on several Sunday mornings in the past. With the afflux of new posters, this is changing now! Weather is mighty cold this Sunday morning in Paris, a little (very little) snow fell a couple of hours ago just to give a beautiful touch of white to the city. One of those Rise and Shine morning. Wishing a good night to all the people on the other side of the pond

It's a 2CD release. And very interesting. With a great booklet. These were recorded during jam sessions that were held between 1954 and 1965 at the Loft of painted David X. Young. First time issue for all this music. Zoot Sims is the main player on both CDs with Bob Brookmeyer, Pepper Adams, Dave McKenna, Mose Allison, Jim Hall, Jimmy Raney and others featured. Not really essential but a joy to listen to...

Happy Birthday, Noj

I remember there was a French BN reissue of the album (with front and back covers replica) back in the sixties. Made in France. BN France reissued some others vinyls at the same time (including Art Blakey's Orgy In Rhythm). I had a copy of that Somethin' Else a long time ago!

Can't wait for the reissue of Stanley Crouch's 'Ain't No Ambulances For No Nigghus Tonight'

Charlie Christian Live at Minton's

Going to New Orleans (and back to May 1945): - American Music By Wooden Joe with Jim Robinson, Albert Burbank, Baby Dodds, etc. - American Music By Bunk Johnson Brass Band with Kid Shots Madison, Jim Robinson, George Lewis, Baby Dodds, etc. two albums from the fine Japanese label Dan.

If I were in New York on March 13, I'ld be going to church! Thanks for the post, Maren!

Claude, I'll be dreaming about Maria Moor Still trying to find that Zodiac. The search is narrowing!
