Diner. I love that film.

In your collections what is the rarest item anyone has? I’ve moved my collection, CDs, vinyl records to digital format. I took up a room in my home with cD’s and LP’s. My wife can’t understand why I need 32 takes of Charlie Parker playing ‘Star Eyes.’

Yes The posture to me tells me it is Joe Henderson.

I compared a few photos of Roy Brooks and he does look like the drummer in this photo.

This photo is from 1946 with Walter Radcliffe on piano at the Monterey night club in New Haven Connecticut. He was 18.

Joe.

Is this Joe Henderson or not? Charles McPherson says no, but Barry Harris says yes. I don't recall ever seeing a photo of Joe Without Eye Glasses. It's Pepper Adams on bari sax, Boo Boo Turner on piano, Al Jackson on bass. The drummer is unknown.

Glad he is still playing trumpet. Too bad he doesn’t venture to NY anymore.

Thanks.

RIP.

The knowns are Billie Holiday, Ben Webster, Johnny Russell and Ram Ramirez. The guitarist is not known. Anyone have an idea who the guitarist is?

The dish was still empty earlier. Monk must have been a fast eater. That’s Phil Woods. I don’t have any clues who playing sax next to Phil. Any guesses?

Ha.

Photo taken at the Jazz Loft during a 1959 rehearsal. At the bottom it look like Monk had some take out food. You can see the take out container. I wonder what he ordered.

I just heard on the TV he has died. RIP. I liked him in Blade Runner.

I guess the Williamsburg Bridge didn't have the clout, so tell everyone Sonny played on the Brooklyn Bridge.

Here is Oscar Peterson for Budweiser.

I too use to drink Watney's. Thought it was a big step up to what was here in the states.

Sound good. Count me in.

I never liked that beer. Almost as bad as Lowenbrau or Peels.

Here’s a rare photo, at least to me. The Jazz Gallery Chicago I can gear the music in this photo, if you know what I mean. I can’t make out what beer Monk is drinking. The image is too blurry. Anyone have an idea?

I have both of these, Brubeck and Rushing and Monk and Mulligan and these are two as well. The Monk and Mulligan has a fell as if they had been working together for sometime.

I have been listening to Coltrane's Impulse recordings. I just finished up his two sessions that Impulse paired Trane with another solo artist. One being Duke Ellington and the second with Johnny Hartman. Both of these work so well from the first track to the last. Too bad these were both one off projects. Like that bag of chips, you even eat the crumbs wedged at the bottom, I wanted more from both. Are there any other one off collaborations that are as good?
