  1. Sorry to hear this, RIP. I saw him a couple of times with Elvin, one occasion at Carnegie Hall. A fine player.
  2. He was a bit frail getting to the piano last time I saw him but that was nearly 10years ago now. The fact that he is still playing is cause for celebration - Happy Birthday Mr Tyner sir and hopefully lots more gigs !
  3. They tried to deliver mine today but not around so it will be Wednesday when I get it. Pretty quick ! That would be beyond cool if the PDF was made available.
  4. Shame that bonus PDF 300-pager can’t be ordered separately.
  5. Sorry to hear this. RIP.
  6. I wonder how things would stand legally with regards to publishing these in a book? Not sure who owns the rights to Esquire either after Peter Newbrook’s passing. The Calman print was with permission for a one-off very limited run from his daughter. If that was repeated across the whole catalogue it could be quite the exercise, to say the least. Those Guidis, or many of them, are in a OOP Glyn Callingham book on the West Coast labels.
  7. Miles Davis ‘Blue Haze’ (Esquire)
  8. Clarke-Boland Big Band ‘Off Limits’ (Rearward)
  9. Wonder how that Moondog disk managed to be within the Brummy trad sleeve? Always admired that ‘Miles’ artwork and never realised it was the work of renowned cartoonist Mel Calman. The Moondog is by Diz Disley. Cartoonist Ralph Steadman also did some of the covers e.g ‘Gil Evans Plus 10’.
  10. This nice (very) limited offering might be of interest to board members, especially in the UK. Miles Esquire LP cover and ‘Moondog’. https://trunkrecords.greedbag.com/buy/miles-davis-calman-screenprint/ I have picked up one of the Miles, for Xmas.
  11. I was scratching my head on that one too... Both kinuta and JohnJ - splendid chaps !
  12. Here’s wishing him well and a speedy recovery to master classes !
  13. There are times when I wish I had access to a tele-transporter between here and Brooklyn..
  14. Clunky -looks as though it is still in stock. Try a search by the book title.
