Thank Claude. I'll do so ...... next year

Thank you, King Ubu - this should be the key to find all recording dates. Thanks. Have a good beginning of 2006

Gil Mellé's Blue Note recordings

I obtained the (cheap) 8 CD set "Jazz At The Philharmonic" (IECJ801). The label is Weton-Wesgram (Flex Media) It contains recordings from 1945 - 1946. No recording dates. The personnel for each track is given. Is there a list of recording dates for these JATP recordings of 1945-1946?

I bought myself the 2CD set called "Swing Accordion"- Le swing á bretelles ( IRIS Music 3001 872). A great compilation with 1930s French swing on accordion. A great set, but ....... bo recording dates. Is there a connaisseurn online or an online database to find these French popular music recording dates? www.people.zeelandnet.nl/koerthchkz Durium projects Hans Koert

Thanks Mike for your suggestion. I have contact with someone who has this box too and can help me. That seems to be a much easier way then building up the complete set again.

Thank you, Scottb. i'll give it a try. I smells better ............. ....... but the "needle still jumps like a rabbit". Thanks for your suggestions.

Thank you, Scottb. i'll give it a try.

I bought this 4CD box some weeks ago in a junk shop in a town 150 km from here and I was very happy with it, because it contains a lot of 1940s Blue Note recordings that will be never (?) re-issued in the RVG-series I guess. It contains a 4CD box with 72 tracks played by Sidney Bechet, Art Hodes, Sidney de Paris and Edmond Hall. But ... when I came home and I tried to play the first CD the "needle" jump and scratched the surface, as if it was a grey-played 78rpm recording. I watched the surface of the CD and learned that it was damaged as if someone had used a scourer to "clean" the surface. So were trhe other three CDs. The 4CD are unplayable and I bought a pig in a poke (in Holland we call this a "cat in the bag"). I'm looking for someone who wants to help me. If you have this 4CD set and you want to share the recordings with me I could make this damaged set "complete" again. Please contact me off-list to learn what I can offer you. koerthchkz@zeelandnet.nl Thanks .....

Snow is falling, Sinterklaas arrived some days ago in Holland again, so Christmas days are near. I'm ready for it.

Tal Farlow I'm fascinated by the music of Tal Farlow. Is there a web site, a list or a discography dedicated to this great guitar player where I can obtain more info?

Odeon Argentina released several series of records that contain the music of Oscar Aleman. These records have labels in different colour and design. Can someone explain us in what year certain labels were released? Some Argentinean Odeon labels

I made a personal concerts web log, with all the concerts I attended the last 40 years. I'd love to share that with you. Are there more of such lists on the internet? My personal concerts web log: jazz cat's blue notes

I still hope to find a collector who has a copy of the History 2CD "Jumpin' at the Deuces" with Slam Stewart and Cozy Cole. (History 20.1970-HI). It's a very common record released in the cheap History series "From Swing To Bebop" during the 1990s. My booklet is damaged by water and I'd hope someone will scan the discographical information for me. Enjoy my personal concerts web log : Jazz cat's blue notes

The article "Oscar Aleman in Copenhagen" is now also available in Spanish. Thanks to Luis Contijoch. Oscar Aleman in Copenhagen I send you my warmest congratulations! The article is great. Un gran abrazo, Guillermo Iacona. (Argentina)

Dear Alemaniacs, admirers of the musical heritage of Oscar Aleman. Today, October 14th 2005, twenty five years ago, Oscar Aleman passed away in a hospital in Buenos Aires. He died at the age of 71. He started his career as a little boy singing and dancing in their family band 'The Moreira Sextet" around 1915, learned to play the cavaquinho at the age of twelve, came to Europe twenty years old and became one of the best guitar players from the 1930s. When the second world war started he left Europe and started a new career in Argentina where he became a national star. In the last decade preceding his decease he was honoured by a selected group of admirers who still loved him as a person, for his music and his performance. Now twenty-five years later Oscar hasn't been forgotten. Nearly all his records are reissued on CD and connoisseurs in guitar music praise his music. This summer we talked about his Copenhagen recordings, maybe the best he ever made, and shared the passion for his skill on the guitar and as a person with Svend Asmussen, a colleague from Oscar of the 1930s. We love to share this event with you with a preview of an article, that will be published later in the IAJRC Journal. Oscar Aleman in Copenhagen Thank you: Hans Koert, Joergen Larsen, Theo van de Graaff and Luis Contijoch. El redescubrimiento de Oscar Aleman project

I listened at random to some tracks. 3. No idea. A swing band with bebop influences, so maybe early 1950s? Is the trumpet player Sweet Edison? 5. Some moments I heard Roy Hargrove, but I don't recognize this version. Larry Willis an Sherrman Irbi on piano and tenor and Willie Jones III on drums. But, I think it will be one of the great hard bop musicians. I guess I'm terrible wrong, but if I hope Roy will find it a compliment. 15. Erroll Garner - Even Icould hear this. I'll jump in some other tracks later this week. Durium
