Hey, good to hear that. Miracles sometimes happen !

Seconded !

I've still got a couple of Liberty-era Lee Morgan cassettes. With the old style black cases. 'Sixth Sense' and 'Caramba'. Classed as 'originals' I guess - along with the 8-track versions? We need a Fred Cohen book for the cassettes !

Nice story ! Always good when something like that happens (rare in my experience). Sanders and his band are appearing at Cheltenham, UK in a few months time and I'm tempted to catch the show.

Half the fun of Slade was seeing what outrageous get-up Dave Hill would appear in for each appearance on TV. What a character ! And that guy with Mud in the frock and ear-rings was just as bad. Not sure what this has got to do with 'Bitches Brew' though.

Late best wishes. Hope the ski-ing was good !

What do you think of the Django set? This type of music I have very little of, and was wondering the enjoyment/replay quotient. I just have CDs 1 and 2 and it swings like crazy. No issues with the sound quality either. Must get the full set !

Rush had a bit of a UK cult following of semi-headbangers around 1978 onwards. There must have been a 'Toronto Invasion' around that time. 'Martha & the Muffins' etc.

No Sid James? Seeing all those MFP covers makes me think of the LP racks at Woolworths (RIP) !

Indeed ! Those two CDs got multiple re-spins. Now on - Django Reinhardt CD1

Victor Feldman's versatile pianistic/vibes/percussion influence is very apparent I think on 'Katy Lied' That is one heck of a good album.

My advice is to get the Django, especially if your Django holdings are slim. Great set. I like the Sarah set less. . . . Thanks Jazzbo. I've got a partial of the Django Mosaic and like what I've heard. Time to get the full set I think. The Sarah Vaughan can maybe wait for another time. Sounds like I also need to add a Jimmy Witherspoon single into the box too !

Happy Birthday John !

Which always reminds me of this (about 40s in): Radio Goodies The TV over here has also been broadcasting recently an old archive show called 'Sounds of the 60s'. Anglo/German joint production done in Xmas 1969 full of stars of that era and Jankowski is shown walking through the snowy Black Forest, pipe in mouth ! Quite a period piece - MTV is isn't :rsmile: .

I need to put in an order for Buddy Rich so this might be a good time to also grab the Django, or the Sarah Vaughan. Any recommendations?

Happy Birthday !

Johnny Hodges Verve 56-61, CDs 5 and 6. Sublime !

Happy birthday - hope it was good.

My internet feed crashed half way through the 'Roll Call' track. At least it's available for another 7 days.
