  6. Nice story.
  7. This guy can play the trumpet, and play it rell well. Just wonder why he never really made a name for himself.
  8. Maybe Clint Eastwood will direct it. Hey he was on this board a while back saying he was working on a jazz moive. This sounds like it is going to suck.
  9. Nice photo. I can't wait to see Tolliver with Andrew Hill at Birdland.
  10. Thanks. His name slipped my mine. He was the one that died in the helicopter crash.
  11. Back in the late 60's and 70's, who was the music promoter that would have Miles Davis open up for acts like Hendrix? I believe he woned the 2 Filmores. I was speaking to someone who told me he got turned on to jazz when he went to see the Allman Brothers and Miles opened for them. This was such a great idea.
  12. There just something about those lips that make men crazy, well at least for me. Other than that, I don't find her that interesting.
  13. Just read a thread in one of the other sections and it made me wonder. What if I had to sell all my records/CD's? I guess being a minimalist is the way to live. There would be nothing to obsess or consume you. I don’t know if I could ever do that. I probably start collecting again shortly there after. Could you live without your jazz?
  14. Wow, what a great photo. Where did you dig it up?
  15. That reminds me a joke when I was studying music. Pretty bad. There were two grave diggers walking through an old cemetery in Austria. One of them trips on a rectangle stone. When he gets up, the two of them look at the stone almost completely buried in the soil. On it, it has the letters, W.A.M. They look at each other and say, “my God, Mozart’s grave.” They run back to tell the news to their boss. He in turn calls all these music scholars and other historians and journalists. When they dig up the area, a coffin is found. This only heightens the anticipation. They bring the coffin inside. But when they open it Mozart is lying there erasing music from music scores. The music scholars yell out, “Mozart, what are you doing? You are supposed to be dead for the past 215 years.” Mozart looks at them and says, “I’m decomposing”.
  16. These poor vocalists no wonder why we don’t talk about them too much here, we would all go to sleep.
  17. This is a get box. Some great photos too.
  18. I think I have this album. I have to listen to it again. Is this the album with a woman lying on the floor and a man sitting by a fireplace looking at her? It's been a real long time since I took this one out for a listen.
  19. Then it wouldn't be any fun.
  20. I agree 100%. I even dig his vocals on those Horace Silver CD's from the mid 70's and on. I like that CD Tuesday's in Chinatown. It just makes me real relaxed, that's all. I can't think of another CD that did that to me. Tom.
  21. This evening I was listening to "Tuesday's in Chinatown" and it made me fall asleep. I like Andy Bey's voice and singing, infact, I've seen him live, but this CD made me sleepy. If you're on any sleep aids, stop them and pick up that CD. At least there's no side affects.
  22. Cool, Thanks.
  23. This wouldn't be a quintet with tenor sax and trombone, by any chance? Yes it is.
  24. Maybe I can zip or convert the show to flac and send it to someone via www.yousendit.com. Any takers?
  25. Someone sent me this show. He wanted to know if I could figure out the musicians are. I got all the titles down but I have no idea who they are. No names are ever mentioned. The shows swings its ass off. I would want to think the leader is the drummer. He takes solos in 4 of the 5 tunes. You have to lead a band as a drummer to solo in most tunes I would think.
