  2. This trio and the group in post #4 look like aliens from another planet to me! Plus this album cover is in at least two other forum discussions for album covers.
  3. You can't take an oxygen tank on a plane, so someone with COPD can't risk being without O2. Can you take a O2 tank on a train or bus? I don't know that answer. I wasn't trying to make this discussion on not smoking. I was just pointing out that Bobby is now limited to his performances. I did see him two years ago at JALC. HE played with Renee Rosnes. He did have a oxygen tank on stage and had to sit out on two numbers.
  4. RIP Jay.
  5. Happy Birthday.
  6. Amazing. You couldn't script it any better.
  7. I have a ticket to this concert at JALC, but Bobby Hutcherson has canceled and will not be playing due to his emphysema. While jazz is an art form with a rich and profound history, it is also a living and breathing medium of expression which continues to be galvanized by its legacy. In this spirit, Jazz at Lincoln Center honors legends who have left a significant footprint in history while continuing to both nurture the now and inspire the future. In the first installment of this series, JALC honored “jazz impresario” George Wein. This year’s honoree is master vibraphonist and veteran bandleader Bobby Hutcherson. Hutcherson, originally scheduled to appear on this concert, is not able to participate as planned. “I’m thankful to be honored by Jazz at Lincoln Center,” he said. “I’ve been looking forward to this event and being reunited with some old (and new) friends for close to a year. Unfortunately, my emphysema has progressed to the point where I can no longer fly long distances. I know the show will be great, and I will be watching the webcast.” Known for his originative four-mallet approach to the vibes, Hutcherson is one of the pioneers of his instrument along with greats Lionel Hampton and Milt Jackson. The concert will span his noteworthy ensembles, which throughout the last five decades included Eric Dolphy, Andrew Hill, Herbie Hancock and Harold Land. Likewise, performances from Renee Rosnes, Ray Drummond and veterans of Hutcherson’s prolific 1960s era, Stanley Cowell and Joe Chambers will represent the various incarnations of Hutcherson’s line-ups, along with handpicked protégés Steve Nelson and Warren Wolf. A special video interview with Hutcherson will augment the perform Those that smoke, it will kill you one day or make your life hell.
  8. You did this one before. I think we found all of the album covers.
  9. Most Other People Do The Killing newest release called "Blue" is a note for note recreation of Mile Davis' "Kind of Blue." Each member of the band mimics each note, drum beat and solo from the Miles Davis album. Why???? Give me the original. Here's an article on this. http://news.yahoo.com/why-did-band-recreate-jazzs-most-famous-record-162300325.html;_ylt=AwrBT9uC9U9Uy8AAIu5XNyoA I am not familiar with this band so I can't comment on their earlier work, but I can do without the artificial sweetener.
  10. Happy Birthday, Guy. Many more.
  11. I have no clue for any on the second disc. I have bad ears.
  12. Ethel Merman George Gershwin
  13. Yellow Belly Lead Belly Pete Seeger
  14. I was at this show. It was great.
