Yes but he does mention the rare Billy Higgins vocal single from the session. Stereo Jack sent me that one about 20 years ago and seems only available on a Jordi Special from FreshSounds? Edit to add: The Glory Smyth album has its pleasures too.

Seems that way ... don't forget they are under legal assault so it isn't that surprising to me.

Q is hugely important to "Music" and his loss was sad. But the ones that hit me are Golson, LD and Haynes.

Oh wow - the last month has been rough, first Golson, then LD and now Haynes. All-time great, as if that needs to be said. RIP.

MG IN DA HOUSE! People been wondering about you, good to see you!

Dill Jones has several recordings to date in the Phi Schaap Jazz Collection at Vandy: https://aviary.library.vanderbilt.edu/catalog?current_organization=#<Organization:0x0000704f71085f08>&current_flock=false&user_ip=173.171.182.128&request_is_xhr=false&myresources=0&sort=title_ss+asc&transliteration_status=false&search_field=advanced&search_type=simple&title_text[]=&resource_description[]=&indexes[]=&transcript[]=&op[]=&type_of_search[]=simple&type_of_field_selector[]=simple&keywords[]=dill+jones

I thought the link had been working and now it doesn't The thread was from this google search, <Link Deleted on Request> And from there I used the option to "share" the link to bookmark the specific Rooster Ties contribution which was a copy/paste job from the original, or else from the Way Back Machine? Very weird. It was a fun trip down "memory" lane.

I didn't know that was an issue but maybe Nike also redesigned football pants like they did with baseball?

Impossible to act surprised but what a great life and spirit. Long live LD.

I especially miss Alan (I could never get his spelling right, hope that's it) on BFTs. Hope all is OK.

Except they would have to change the locks and demand the secret passcode to let him back in.

So when I read that Cole opted out of his deal and then the Yankees 'brought him back' I assumed they had rolled over and added a $36 million dollar salary on an extra contract year, per the deal they signed him to five years ago. Now it turns out the Yankees said "fine, you've opted out" and Cole said "but I don't wanna be a free agent" and everything goes on as if he never opted out??? What a crock of shit. You opt out, the contract is null and void. No "I crossed my fingers" bullshit. If he wants to return to the Yankees, new contract, from scratch. This is total bullshit.

What a difference a year makes. Last year, a great side-long jam by masters (and another cut IIRC). This year ... this. Missing the throw-up emoji right about now. TRACK 1: I have never had any urge to listen to the Headhunters and I still don't. Zero stars. TRACK 2: See #1, only more so. TRACK 3: Compared to the others, 5 stars. Reality? 2 or 2 1/2. TRACK 4: All I can hear is the Office Space scene where they are uploading the software to steal the fractional pennies for themselves. Zero stars. TRACK 5: NO TRACK 6: No guesses, 2 1/2 stars TRACK 7: Also 2 1/2 stars, and agree with Felser that trombonist is strong. TRACK 8: 2 stars. TRACK 9: How appropriate: I couldn't stand this BFT either. Like I said, what a difference a year makes.

Yes, I pointed this one out to Allen on FB. Makes a nice live recording to add to the LP that Allen recorded: https://www.discogs.com/release/6186461-Dickey-Myers-Dickeys-Mood

Very glad Wilyer Abreu got a Gold Glove (and as a rookie, no less). His defense was terrific and his hitting more than acceptable, with room for improvement. If he gets packaged for some immediate improvement like a pitcher or RH power hitter, I'll be annoyed, most likely. https://www.mlb.com/redsox/news/wilyer-abreu-wins-2024-gold-glove-award-red-sox Abreu recorded seven Outs Above Average, tied for first in MLB with Brewers outfielders Jackson Chourio and Sal Frelick. Abreu led the Majors in Defensive Runs Saved by a right fielder with 17, and his nine assists tied Hunter Renfroe and Juan Soto for most at the position.

Interesting add up just today: Howard McGhee combo featuring Joe Carroll and Tommy Turrentine. https://aviary.library.vanderbilt.edu/collections/2137/collection_resources/138038

That was weak and she didn't bring much to the role either. The music was the highlight and it took three minutes out of a 3:42 short to get to the one punch line that the rehab facility is Maxwell House.

Not as much as they would have behind home plate, but for WS, probably $100 each, as a guess.

@Aggie87 👍 The bagel flavors look traditional too so ... I am getting a hankering. The bagel place I went to before I got away from them were excellent bagels, highly questionable home-made cream cheese mix-ins. Lox or scallions for me.

Does no one browse record stores anymore? Nobody is stuck on the path of THE NARRATIVE. I started a good bit before the Internet but not as far back as BBS. At that time there were plenty of OJC vinyl (and Liberty BNs for that matter) where you could find Gene Ammons records, I am quite sure. And Ramsey Lewis Argos.

I'm off of bagels since May 31. I think I'd need a better photo to judge their offerings, but Kettleman's is the right name ... don't some "bagel" places skip the boil in water part?

Basic defensive principle: You can't let someone get beyond the defense on a hail mary. If someone stays with the guy who positioned himself there, almost certainly nothing happens. Nothing bad at least. And don't tell me that wasn't holding on #55 during the scramble.

It is written with enthusiasm - a surprising number of exclamation points coming from an 'academic' on a university press imprint. The writing is fine IMO. My quibbles: Page 7: "Mandel, in noting the innovations of saxophonists Albert Ayler, Ornette Coleman, John Coltrane, Miles Davis and others ..." That's just a big old whoopsie. Page 17: ".... Herbie Hancock's smash hit song from his first solo album, Takin' Off." IMO "solo" album has a specific meaning in jazz. We can say that Paul McCartney's first Wings album was his first "solo" recording post-Beatles. But for jazz, the correct descriptor is "leader date". Page 165: "... it sounded like the riot at the Stonewall Inn in 1969 for LGBTQ rights." To me this is projection into the past of current concerns/alliances. Stonewall was about gay rights specifically.
