I've listened to this performance so many times in the past month. It is remarkable!!! The last track, Sonny, Booker and Dexter are trying to out do each other. In the end Sonny seems to win the battle. I would have loved to been at this performance. The intensity is so high, and to have all these great tenor players on one show could never happen again.

I can swap with you. I have mine ready.

That remeinds me, Louis Amrstrong's Hot 5 and Hot 7 was performed last week at JALC by Wynton. This is another example of one of these gigs.

In the past few years there have been several shows at the various clubs in NYC tailed around successful jazz recordings from jazz artists from the past. For example, over the summer of 2012 I saw McCoy Tyner and Charles Tolliver performing Cotrane's album "Ascension". It was so boring. I am a fan of both Tyner and Tolliver Next week at the Jazz Standard there will be group performing Ornette Coleman's recording, "Free Jazz." Personally, I don't find these shows that exciting. Are these shows really that successful? ORNETTE COLEMAN'S FREE JAZZ REVISITED ORNETTE COLEMAN'S FREE JAZZ REVISITED Alto saxophonist and composer Ornette Coleman (who had “roused more controversy in the jazz world than any musician since Charlie Parker,” according to John S. Wilson in The New York Times) assembled a “double quartet” comprised of himself and Eric Dolphy on alto saxophones, Freddie Hubbard and Don Cherry on trumpets, bassists Charlie Haden and Scott LaFaro, and drummers Billy Higgins and Ed Blackwell. On December 21, 1960 at the Atlantic Records studio in midtown Manhattan, this ensemble recorded Free Jazz – an album that astonished the music world with its radical spirit and improvisational audacity. “Aside from a predetermined order of featured soloists and several brief transition signals cued by Coleman, the entire piece was created spontaneously, right on the spot,” Steve Huey later wrote at Allmusic.com. “…Jazz had long prided itself on reflecting American freedom and democracy and, with Free Jazz, Coleman simply took those ideals to the next level. A staggering achievement.” Last year, Jazz Standard presented a new interpretation of John Coltrane’s Ascension that knocked out audiences and critics alike. Tonight – for one night only – Jazz Standard presents an all–star tribute to Ornette Coleman and Free Jazz. This show is certain to be one of the highlights of the 2013 jazz year – make your reservations now! Jaleel Shaw – alto saxophone Joe Lovano – tenor saxophone Jeremy Pelt – trumpet Tim Hagans – trumpet Ben Allison – bass Lonnie Plaxico – bass Billy Drummond – drums Matt Wilson – drums

This looks good on paper, but what can be left in the vaults that has any merit and worth releasing? Anyway, I will pick this up when it comes out this year. Anyone have any more information on this? Jimi Hendrix -- People, Hell and Angels, 3/5: He may be dead, but he's still Jimi Hendrix. Featuring 12 previously unreleased recordings, the album "follows Hendrix in 1968 and 1969 as he works on material apart from the Jimi Hendrix Experience and suggests new experimental directions," says the press release. "Hendrix toys with horns, keyboards, percussion and a second guitar." Proof you don't need to be alive to still have a recording career.

RIP.

When I went to the Jimmy Heath's birthday concert this year, Cosby was there and he hogged the stage. I thought to myself, I guess he's trying to get his name out there again. Been several years since he has had his face in the public eye. So I am glad I'm not the only one who thought this.

Here are mine. Frank Wess' 92 birthday celebration at Dizzy's. He can still play. Steve Wilson Trio at the Vanguard with Renee Rosnes and Peter Washington. Charles McPherson and Tom Harrell Quintet Dizzy's.

Don Ferrara passed away a few ago.

I know the musicians are Charlie Parker, Lester Young, Hot Lips Page and Lenny Trisano, but who is the other trumpet player? I can't see who is on drums and bass so I 'm trying to figure them out from this photo.

Oscar, Oscar, Oscar, R.I.P. http://tv.yahoo.com/news/jack-klugman-dies-los-angeles-231248929.html I grow up watching the Odd Couple, and then again in re-runs. One of televisions greatest shows of all time.

Don't know id other would say it is a master piece, but you could add Rollins' solo album he did in the 70s to the list.

This is just so horrible. My prayers today were for all those that lost their lives.

Make it a good one.
