ernie krivda 6tet at cleveland bopstop
AndrewHill replied to alocispepraluger102's topic in Live Shows & Festivals
Yeah, I've been to the old Bop Stop on W6th and the new one near W25th. I kind of like the old one because it had a pretty nice ambiance for jazz-the brick walls, being downtown and so forth, but the new location affords a larger audiance and the accoustics are an improvement. you missed the original where the really great cats hung out and jammed after their gigs in the early 1990's. it's a wonder they didnt blow the roof off. there was room for about 35 people and no room for a piano. it was at w41st and superior or carnegie, i think. some incredible musicians passed through those humble doors. krivda played the joint several times, and lovano, too. i took a couple dates there, and not being music majors they were not impressed. Oh, didn't know there was an even earlier location than that That was around the time I moved to Cleveland. -

On my second cup of coffee, so I've settled down since then. -

Still hot and humid, but with rain now.

Yes! We need more philosophers! I Have a BA, MA and currently working on a PhD in philosophy. I've also been teaching philosophy for the last five years. I took a class on Thomas' 'Treastise on Man' in my first year of doctoral work. I walked away from that with an entirely new respect for his work.

Heidegger... you must be a tough guy that you can stand his writing... actually you reminded me of a project one of my professors started when i still did philosophy, a translation of Gottlob Freges (famous because it's incorrect but i love his writing style) major work "Grundgesetze der Arithmetik" from his own weird formula language to normal formulas... hope this will get finished in decent time... (they started in 2004) His language takes a little getting used to, but as soon as the lexicon hurdle is overcome, it becomes quite clear that he is one of most important philosophers of the 20th century. I've taken two seminars on Heidegger: one on 'Being and Time' and the other on the 'later' Heidegger. Took the latter seminar with a prof who studied with Eugen Fink at Frieburg. Fink was a student and friend of Heidegger's. Hope that Leibniz project comes to a completion. Frege, not Leibniz (the only author besides Bertrand Russell who is mentioned in Wittgenstein's Tractatus...), he was the inventor of quantors (English word?) in logic and had his very own way of writing things down ( on page 7 and 8 of this you can see what he did and how they are rewriting it on one of 400 pages http://www.ikp.uni-bonn.de/~fha/fha_gldv05.pdf ) i never got beyond that language issue with Heidegger, it just read so ridiculous... but i do believe you Yeah, my bad. I meant Frege. Don't know why I said Leibniz. Wittgenstein is another important philosopher, one of the few philosophers to actually recant a work (the Tractatus) but even so, the Tractatus still influenced a whole movement in philosophy, i.e., the Logical Positivists. I even quoted the final proposition of the Tractatus in my reply box below. I took a seminar on the Tractatus as an undergrad and we went proposition by proposition. It was fantastic.

I think so, in a line-up that also included Brotzmann. I have '20th Anniversary' on FMP and Mangelsdorff, Christmann and Lewis are the trombonests on that disk.

In jazz: I'd like to see thoroughly researched biographies on Jackie McLean and Albert Ayler In philosophy it'd be neat to read: A non-political biography on Martin Heidegger (read the 'policitcal' one by Hugo Ott). All of the works by Aristotle that were lost in the fire at the Library of Alexandria. And the original manuscript of 'Rules for the Direction of the Mind' by Descartes (if you want to read what happened to it, its in the Cambridge Edition of the Collected Works of Rene Descartes). And maybe a couple of my own poetry manuscripts-they're typed up and ready to go

Coffee w/oatmeal cookies. -
I don't have the Chambers select, but if the 'Paul Chambers Quintet' is included, that's just as fine as the other two Chambers albums! In fact, I give it a slight edge over Bass on Top, but Whims is still the fav out of the three.

Yeah, I tried that too, but no reply.

Doing some used cd shopping and picked up these two diddys: Jazz at Hotchkiss-The George Wallington Quintet-Savoy Jazz Corps featuring Roland Kirk-Pacific Jazz

Wow, more bad news. In addition to his work with Blakey and Trane, I also liked his work on The Artistry of Freddie Hubbard. What a big, rich monster tone he had.

Well this blows. This is just as upsetting as when Manglesdorff passed. That was a nice interview, Clifford. Sad to hear about the lack of paying gigs in those last twelve months. In addition to everything else mentioned, I also liked his work with Brotzmann, too. Will spin 'Fuck De Boere' tonight.
