ghost of miles

Up in memory of Mr. Fischer: Extension: Clare Fischer in the 1960s

I have the set as well and love it... just wanted to grab this disc in case anybody here ever needs it as a replacement.

Some used CDs: Joe Farrell/Art Pepper, DARN THAT DREAM Buddy Rich, KEEP THE CUSTOMER SATISFIED Christian McBride, LIVE AT TONIC Cassandra Wilson, AFTER THE BEGINNING AGAIN Maynard Ferguson,THE BIRDLAND DREAMBAND

I found an orphaned Lee Morgan Mosaic CD from the Morgan 1950s Blue Note set in the used bins at Luna yesterday (excellent Indpls record store at 52nd and College). It's disc 3, in good-very good condition (several very light scratches, some faint clouding). Thought I'd pick it up since the price was so cheap, in case anybody here needs it to complete a partial set or replace a missing disk. $8 including postage to anybody who wants or needs it.

I prefer TrippingOlney myself.

Lazaro's doing some of the best day-to-day (or night-to-night, rather) jazz programming in the country.

Yu Darvish to the Rangers... whaddaya think, Jsngry?

Wow! I used to see Sifferlen play at the Chatterbox in Indianapolis all the time... a real hometown legend around those parts. Didn't realize there were any recordings of him with the Kenton orchestra floating around.

Wynton Marsalis, LIVE AT THE VILLAGE VANGUARD.

New live Kenton release, just FYI: Stan Kenton at the Hollywood Bowl 1948

Kenton in Munich Sept 1953 with Zoot Sims ,June Christy and Lee Konitz among others-good one I'll second that and add this one, from the Hep label--it features the Innovations Orchestra: Stan Kenton at Carnegie Hall October 1951

Upping this thread in memory of the late Mr. Rivers--the show can listened to online: A Brief Convergence: Miles Davis and Sam Rivers in 1964

Thanks, truly, for gracing us with your wisdom, Jim. It is much appreciated.

Many thanks to all of you--I feel as if I've been a bit of a stranger around this joint lately. Hoping to be more present in the coming months, as I still love this place and the people who spend time here.

Just off the top of my head: Ornette Coleman, BEAUTY IS A RARE THING Anthony Braxton, WILISAU and the Arista Mosaic Various, WILDFLOWERS John Carter-Bobby Bradford, MOSAIC SELECT (edit...thanks for the reminder, colinmce.) Various artists, MESSAGE FROM THE TRIBE I have the Threadgill Mosaic and love what I've heard of it so far, but only two discs in, so can't honestly rack it up yet as an all-time avant-garde box-set favorite... but I think it will land there once I've listened to the rest of it.

Well-trod ground on this forum, to be sure, but it's kicking up a lot of dust on the jazz internets, so thought I'd go ahead and post it here: Why Jazz Isn't Cool Anymore BTW, much of this seems either arbitrary (1959? Really?) or very old, old news to me. Nevertheless it seems to be getting some people worked up, as such commentaries usually do.

Paul Motian, LE VOYAGE.

All best to a gent of great taste and spirit!

Book's at work so I'll have to fill this in tomorrow, but off the top of my head: Rahsaan Roland Kirk, "Jitterbug Waltz" Dexter Gordon, "Antabus" Bill Evans, "Polka Dots and Moonbeams" Art Blakey, "In Walked Bud" ...more to follow, including McCoy Tyner and Woody Shaw.

A new Night Lights show up for online listening, drawing on the three recent releases of 1970s and 80s radio broadcasts by Bill Evans, Chet Baker, and Art Blakey: Live From the Netherlands: Sesjun Radio Shows

Hey all, Night Lights is doing its part for WFIU's annual fund-drive tonight, beginning at 11 p.m. EST. For those here on the board who listen either via the show's archives or to the broadcast over the Internet, I hope you'll consider making a pledge of support by calling 1-800-662-3311 between 11 p.m. EST and midnight, or by pledging online. We've got some fun thank-you gifts, too, like the new Uptown Gigi Gryce release DOIN' THE GIGI, Freddie Hubbard's PINNACLE, the new book about David Baker (which comes with a CD of David's music, much of it unreleased, including a live 1959 Indianapolis club date with David Young on tenor sax), the new Keystone Korner book w/CD, and much more. I'll be playing music from all of those releases... hoping to get the usual two or three pledges that often come in from board members. Thanks in advance for anything you can do to help out.

Pretty much anything by the Stone Roses lately, but this song seems particularly apt today: Bye Bye Badman

Aside to mstryker: note the "Detroit Connection" rhythm section on this date.
