Just found it listed on a seller's site: Rodney Jones, "When You Feel the Love." Seller doesn't give catalog number for CD, but the LP was Timeless SJP 152.

Lionel Hampton And His Band Live, MCAD 33101
I'd forgotten about that Eddie Harris.
Dim, distant memory is telling me there was a Rodney Jones title too... but I might be imagining that.

Am I alone in disliking Emmett Berry's contributions? His tone and delivery bug me in ways that no other trumpeter of the time bugs me. Are my ears on wrong here? Perspective, anyone?

Happy Time for Low Price Meds Raise
Where the ladies? Where my homegirls? Where my females?

Now if they would have just placed the word "Foxtrot" underneath the song title, it would've been even funnier...
Plus the title again in Spanish...

A quick plug for his sideman work on Blakey's "Ugetsu" on Riverside.
And a second for the "Fire and Filigree" LP.

Currently: Elmo Hope, "So Nice." Replacing his "De-Dah," stuck in my head earlier today.

You think THAT'S a drone -- you should hear the recordings of Yeats reading his poetry.

Saw the header "late Ellington" and thought he'd be talking about the time after Strayhorn died. Imagine my surprise in finding that "late Ellington" begins in 1943.
So at age 45, I've already entered my "late period"?
(Nothing polite to say about Mr. Crouch, especially after he came to the Charlie Parker Memorial Concert in Kansas City last year and delivered an incoherent address mainly focusing on Bird's sex life. It didn't exactly build hopes for the still-promised Parker bio.)

If Fritzi just had a nose...

Here's a guy who says it's a fake. For the sake of that city, I hope he's right.

The musical quality of the big-band items drops off sharply after Chano Pozo's death. But concentrate on the earlier stuff! A wealth of information and invention here.
The sound is the average RCA studio sound of the period, unfortunately.

Worth the price for "Manteca" and "Good Bait" alone. This music has haunted me for 23 of my 45 years.
Late, I hope you have the earlier big band recordings too -- available nowadays in the Savoy set.

Conrad Herwig, Brian Lynch -- Toshiko
Kenny Garrett -- Mel Lewis, for a couple of minutes

Very thorough, KK!
(Thanks for all these.)

A big batch of sealed, marked-down Arabesques has appeared at one of my favorite haunts recently.
So this weekend, I filled some of the gaps in my Art Farmer and Jane Ira Bloom collections.

Tom: FFA didn't join Woody 'til about 1984, methinks.

The fourth stucke from Webern's Funf Stucke fur Orchester Op 10.
All right, Bev! There have been periods when the first movement of the Symphony Op. 21 was stuck in my head for days... Those were good days.
Oh, wait a minute. I get it. Orchesterstuck, stuck in my head.
For me, at the moment, the stuck music is "Gee Officer Krupke" from "West Side Story."

To my knowledge there are no Monk covers by the Duke
There's a Strayhorn arrangement of "Monk's Dream." No kidding. Recorded on one of the early volumes of the "Private Collection" series.

Let's pause for a moment to ponder this landmark in linguistic history: the first time the words "hot chick" and "humanitarian" have been used in the same sentence.

Astonishing. And not astonishing.
Change "bebop" to "hiphop," alter the details about clothing, and you could easily imagine this being published today.

Come back and talk to us sometime when you get over that talkin-bout-yourself-in-the-third-person problem.

I don't see a price for this but I've got the feeling it's very expensive.
To any jazz fan who's thinking about spending big bucks on a Bird vanity item:
Instead, please consider spending a comparable amount of money on Parker recordings that you will donate to schools and libraries in your area. Or on other activities to foster and propagate jazz in your community.

I'd swear the vinyl mix was different from the CD -- much darker, with the keyboards not as trebly.
But it's been a lot of years since I heard the vinyl, the LP has gotten away, and my memory ain't what it used to be.
