Dame Julie Andrews is to be honoured with a Lifetime Achievement Award by the Screen Actors Guild, the US actors group said Tuesday. Andrews, 70, came to worldwide attention as the star of Mary Poppins, for which she won an Oscar in 1964 and followed by a starring role in The Sound of Music. More recently she appeared in The Princess Diaries and voiced the role of the queen in Shrek 2. “Julie Andrews is a woman of great generosity, creativity, courage, elegance and wit,” said SAG president Alan Rosenberg in a statement. “She embodies and transcends the memorable roles she has created.” The actress, who has been married to director Blake Edwards for 37 years, was named as a Dame of the British Empire in 1999 and is a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Development Fund for Women. http://www.ecanadanow.com/entertainment/20...ievement-award/

RIP Boz Burrell.

Amen.

I think Gaia and Live in Zurich are good starters.

Happy birthday Mr. Hamilton and all the best.

This was my first Paul Bley's CD. I still love and listen to it from time to time.

I am also digging this album. I like also the two other duets Haden recorded: I'm talking about his recording with Ornette Coleman and with Danny Zeitlin.

Thanks for posting it GA Russell.

Here you can find my detailed explanation.

The Image of Your Body will be available on September 26th. The line up: Myra Melford - piano, harmonium Brandon Ross - electric guitar, banjo, voice Cuong Vu - trumpet, electronics Stomu Takeishi - electric and acoustic bass guitar, electronics Elliot Humberto Kavee - drums This is Melford's first on Cryptogramophone. Myra is one of my favorite musicians so I'm looking forward to listen to it.

Thank you all. Sal, Sunday evening sounds good. I'll PM you 4-5 days prior to my trip.

Thank you Mark. I really appreciate it.

I did. BTW: A great photo of Nina.

Dear friends, I'm going to be in Chicago for 3 days in October (14-17). On October 14 I plan to go to Andy's Jazz Club to see and listen to Von Freeman and his quintet. Last time I saw Mr. Freeman was app 15 years ago in Tel-Aviv and I have very good memories from this concert. Any idea who are the members of his quintet??? And do you know what's going on in the Velvet Lounge? When Fred Anderson closed his iconic Velvet Lounge jazz club last April, he vowed it would return somewhere, sometime. Is it still closed or it was opened in another location??? Anyway, I hope someone might have some recommendations for interesting local jazz clubs or artists playing in Chicago on October 15 & 16. Thank you in advance.

I wish you all the best, akanalog, and a speedy recovery to your dad. I hope your dog will continue to enjoy his life.

Thanks PLM.

Who else???
