Wow, I'm pretty sure I see myself in the photo. Two behind you Michael, the one without any hair. Thanks for posting.

Wow, my topic disappeared. Anyway, my question was a simple one. I listened to about 30 to 40 Count Basie sessions, and not one does Freddie Green ever solo. On one Count says, "This tune will feature our guitarist" and all Freddie Green does is play cord at the end of the tune. Even his one session as a leader he doesn't solo. Did he ever take a solo on record? If yes, what is that record?

I learned to always shake the CD before I buy it. If the CD is moving around in the case, the teeth are broken.

There is just 5 still with us from that wonderful photo entitled "A Great Day In Harlem." It was just amazing how many musicians were able to get up to take the photo in the first place. Maybe a lot of them were still up from the night before.

Anyone here attend the concert? I am going to see him on December 6th in Tarrytown NY. I am looking forward to 2010, Sonny says he may do a trio album. Sonny of old will return.

It is actually a blues about viagra. Lou says, I am going to rap to you about the blue pill.

The late set Saturday the band played this. This was recorded from someone in the audience. Close to the Wednesday's night set I saw. I guess it is basically the same tunes over and over but, a new set of same tunes. 1) L-O-V-E (12:10) 2) Everything Happens to Me (10:52) 3) Gravytrain (10:45) 4) I Almost Lost My Mind > (1:43) 5) "Lou's Viagra rap" > (2:14) 6) Whiskey Drinkin' Woman (5:17) 7) Band Intros (1:44) 8) Secret Love (12:23) 9) Things Ain't What They Used to Be (8:15) 10) Tenor Madness (3:51)

This is what was played. Gravytrain Everything Happens to Me Caravan Now’s the Time Lou's Viagra rap Whiskey Drinkin' Woman Stella By Starlight Secret Love Don’t Get Around Much Anymore Tenor Madness

I was pleasantly surprise to hear a entirely different set list from him last week. It was wonderful, he only repeated one tune that he always plays, "Whiskey Drinking." Thanks Lou, you can still play beautifully at 83.

How many sessions for Billy Higgins?

Pat La Fontaine Bryan Trottier Denis Potvin

This question was asked many moons ago on this board. The answer was Billy Higgins. I can't locate the old thread. Maybe someone else can find it.

The other tenor player is Paul Jeffrey The station was on (Broadcast BBC 2)

Yes I do. It is a BBC Documentary. I will check later and let you know the BBC channel the broadcast was from.

I wish you nothing but the best. Before you know it this will be a thing of the past and you'll be your old self.

Shave the cat. The fur will grow back.

I'm making a sandwich.

What about Sonny Rollins with Annie Lennox on the Cole Porter cover CD "Red Hot and Blue?" There's even a video, I don't know if Sonny is in it though.

For those that can't grab it off of Trader's den, can those that did grab be kind and offer copies to any that want it? There were at least 4 that sent me PMs and said they do not know how to download torrents.

Covering a Stones tune was wonderful. He made it completely his own tune if you know what I am going with this. Yes he was a genius who got sour later in life, but he will always be the king.
