Another club in NYC on the verge of closing.

Although not jazz, still worth mentioning his passing. “Ferry, cross the Mersey,” Gerry. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/01/03/entertainment/gerry-marsden-pacemakers-obituary-trnd/index.html

Here’s to a better year. Stay safe everyone.

I too order many releases from their website via PayPal.

Happy holidays to all. Stay safe and healthy.

Which two board members will do he test of strength and wrestle each other?

I wonder how many times this has happened to someone?

I would love to get a listen to these broadcasts. I have those that were issued as well as a few that trade amongst collectors.

There more for sure. It was a very bad year https://www.npr.org/2020/12/16/947111849/in-memoriam-jazz-night-in-america-remembers-10-musicians-who-altered-shape-of-ja?fbclid=IwAR1aXADtL3m_0MU1NsptL42N-ckwCt_bP1bUqKi7fGurXfc4tGud2g8gTDE

Stanley showing some other big time pianists pointers at the Vanguard. Jason, Fred and Ethan soaking up every bit of it. All three are so immersed in the moment.

His daughter, Sunny, posted on her Facebook page, he was getting treatment fir cancer when he went into shock.

What a horrible year. This is bad news indeed. I was just the other day playing his "Beautiful Friendship" CD with James Morrison. RIP, Jeff. 65 is too young.

695 months

This is really bad news. Rest in peace

Happy Birthday, Barry Harris. 91 years old today.

This isn't a tenor or alto. Could it be a soprano sax?

This is due out in February. https://pitchfork.com/news/archie-shepp-and-jason-moran-announce-new-album-let-my-people-go/?fbclid=IwAR3-wlRQfC6NtroDMbRBBJ4CDBQLPjJ35tJZzY04LKmfFz4VCRZLSLVhnZs

Country music legend, Charley Pride has died from Covid-19. He had a very good voice. RIP.

The music sounds real good through that old unit of yours.

One of the iterations of this release, contains the unissued track which is listed in the Blue Note discography. I can't fine any place selling it. 10 minute blues with Lou and Grant is worth getting a third copy of this session. Does anyone here have this release of Here 'Tis? https://www.discogs.com/Lou-Donaldson-Here-Tis-/release/14145120
