Works for me - and the term "standards" could be used to abbreviate either.

You won't be disappointed. The vibe is sorta like if Warne Marsh made an ESP record.

By the way, I was thinking that "piano-less quartet" usually refers specifically to reeds, brass (tpt), bass and drums. I usually refer to that instrumentation only when I mention "piano-less quartet."

I've often had trouble with the word "standard" as it applies to compositions written in the bebop/post-bop era and played by "current" musicians. What do I call "Epistrophy," if not a composition or a tune written by Monk? I know we critics are always looking for blanket terminology, so help is much appreciated.

I'm addicted to ginger, kinda. Eating crystallized ginger root and just drank a bottle of ginger juice.

That one is closer to the OG's that I have seen.

That you need to pack your bags and head off on your hol to the UK ! Don't worry, it'll happen sooner than you think. You've been warned!

Paris Jazz Corner might still be good... 8 rue de Nancy, Paris 10

Oh shit yeah... excellent date!

Weak.

The fact that I'm on this board at 3 PM on a Saturday should tell you something.

Not having a TV helps my avoidance of shows I might otherwise get into watching. Zach Braff - from his few films - is insufferable to me.

Dexter Gordon & Sonny Grey - Parisian Concert - (Futura)

Wow. I know his name and feel like I must have a representation of his playing on SOMETHING. I'll have to dig thru the collection. Thanks for the reminder, and sorry he's having such a tough time.

Yeah, my sister went last night and loved it. My girlfriend and I will try to go once it stops selling out.

Yeah, Kolhase is a fine, fine player. Seen him w/ Duck Baker and also Tchicai.

Dang. Hope it all turns out okay.

Also, I saw Lancaster with Ed Crockett, another bassist, and Harold E. Smith on drums a few years back. It was really good.

Oh yeah, forgot about those Eyges records. They're not very good.

Buy that Turrentine and then send it to me! Heh..

He's on those Doug Hammond LPs on IDIBIB, Folks and Spaces. I had some private-label CDs/CD-Rs that Byard had sent me, can't find them right now, that were from the late 90s. Live at Macalester and Funny Funky are from the 1970s, as is half of Personal Testimony.

No drums as well as no piano.
