  1. Ha, glad you enjoyed it. Atkins' one-liners from this movie (the top quote on that poster is one of them) are fantastic.
  2. Reporting for duty. Gave it a thumbs up as well.
  3. All right, the drummer on #9 is Ben Riley. If you haven't read this interview from him over at Modern Drummer, I highly recommend it: https://www.moderndrummer.com/2011/11/ben-riely/
  4. Makes me think they would at least have an audio tape of that show...wouldn't they? Probably in a deep vault somewhere. I can't read the small type on the photo upload at discogs of that other performace, but maybe there's a lead in there somewhere? Isn't there a jazz detective that could hit the beat and come up with something?
  5. Playing some albums from the Mosaic Bee Hive set and went with these 3. So glad I picked up that box set. Some high level playing on these records. Really enjoyed Clifford on that Dr. Chicago set. After those, started playing Dave Holland Quintet's Prime Directive Some excellent grooves set by Holland, Kilson & Steve Nelson for Potter & Eubanks to play off of.
  6. Very cool. Thanks for the link
  7. I remember seeing his name and that he was working on a Sonny bio. After reading those Holland show liners I was motivated to buy his book whenever it was published. I'm not a Lou Reed fan so I haven't read that bio and don't have any other exposure to his writing. The Reed stuff isn't inspiring but again, benefit of the doubt. Could be great, could be trash, or any place in between.
  8. Has the great Tom Atkins as Detective Ray Cameron. If a movie as Tom Atkins in it, chances are it's going to be enjoyable.
  9. Awesome video Following this Discogs listing I'm guessing Clyde Lucas on drums (name spelled out helps of course), Dickie Thompson on guitar and it looks like maybe France was there in place of Clifford Scott?
  10. Have you ever seen Night of the Creeps? Most likely, but it's a classic in the B movie horror genre.
  11. Good to know. Thanks!
  12. Definitely a good plan. My rec for FB and Insta could play into that as you could share those uploads via posts on those outlets to drive more traffic. I think FB is worthwhile because artists are present/active there (for ex, Gary Bartz liked a comment of mine recently which I have to say was pretty cool) as well as their family members and others who are tied into this jazz universe. Basically it would just be expanding the net you plan to throw on YT, and those social media "shares" would probably take less time than the YT upload. Just an idea.
  13. I had to look up what "postlapsarian" meant and well, that's a really long time. Not to mention mythical. So that's a helluva strange way to connect how we listen to music today. Maybe there's a broader context I'm missing. Also baffled by singing the body electric... However, this author, Levy, contributed to some excellent liner notes on that Resonance Rollins in Holland release so I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt here.
  14. I slept on these Lloyd ECM records for too long. This is a strong album with Mehldau & Abercrombie playing well and a phenomenal Larry Grenadier on bass.
  15. I'm sure time is a factor here but have you thought about setting up FB and Instagram pages? Periodic posts via those outlets would probably drive more visits. Some of these private jazz pages on FB have members all over the world.
  16. Great movie. The other day I watched most of Mama, but couldn't finish it to see how it ended. Pretty good modern horror movie.
  17. These past few days have been listening to the Lester Young Basie set, discs 7 & 8; and then the Complete Dial set, mainly discs 1 through 4.
  18. While marmite is terrible, this box set most certainly is not.
  19. Oh, it's hilarious. Campy horror is one of my favorite genres.
  20. I wouldn't call myself a huge fan of Richards', but this album is on the Mosaic Select and it's not bad if you like or are in the mood for this sort of thing: Alto Saxophone – Gene Quill Baritone Saxophone, Piccolo Flute – Billy Slapin* Bass – Chet Amsterdam Bass Saxophone – Shelly Gold Drums – Maurice Marks French Horn – Al Antonucci Leader, Arranged By – Johnny Richards Liner Notes – Dom Cerulli Piano – Hank Jones Tenor Saxophone – Frank Socolow Timpani – Willie Rodriguez Trombone – Frank Rehak, Jim Dahl*, Jim Cleveland* Trumpet – Burt Collins, Doug Mettome, Jerry Kail, Paul Cohen Tuba – Jay McAllister
  21. I've got no answer for that other than no one there is paying attention to this and actually giving it that focus would mean they're spending time/money on something that probably doesn't turn much profit. I have to think their attention is way off in another direction.
  22. If you liked what you heard, then that's a good place to start IMO. I see it states that during Virgo the band goes into Braxton's language music to interpret it, so you'll get some doses of his "typical work" which can help with further exploration.
  23. I can only guess the Capitol Vaults series doesn't sell that well and so someone probably saw that which likely puts to bed any further releases.
