Hardbopjazz

It's been bootleg. I have someone it, and what I did manage to fine sounds great.

Just how much of the set is available? I have the Mosaic. How much better does the recently releases sound? I dig Larry Young. I would consider buying the individual CD's.

I wait till the last few minutes.

Does the band ever get gigs in the NYC area? I would love to come hear you live.

I would love to have some of this stuff. Joe Henderson and Miles. Maybe somewhere some tapes exists.

Image being in the club to see Barry Harris and Monk takes over the piano. I would have loved to have witness that one.

I would go see this band in a heart beat.

I would think the sound most have really stunk. It was spinning so slow. Was the 16 RPM a attempt to fit a lot of music on record?

I saw an old tuntable that had a setting for 16 RPM. I never saw this or even heard of it before.

A few years back, his son, T.S. Monk said on WKCR during a all day Monk fest, that one day in the late 70's, towards the end of his father's time on this earth, he yelled out, while sitting at the kitchen table "When I'm dead people will appreciate my music more, and call me a genius." I remember listening to his son tell this story. I do believe he has been recognized as a genius more since his death then when he was alive. Most, is not all musicuans knew he was a genius, but the general public took longer to put that label on him. It could be he was depressed, at least this is what I got from that quote.

Yes, mostly hip hop garbage.

My company held its annual summer picnic yesterday in the parking lot. They had a DJ playing music. His booth was set up like a giant jukebox with old albums and the album covers stapled to this giant jukebox. The dude had a original Sonny Clark Cool Struttin’, Blue Train amongst other jazz and rock albums. I looked at the Clark record. It looked almost mint, but he when and stapled it 4 times. I asked him where he got the Clark and Trane, and he told me, it was from his father’s collection his mom through out where he died. He went and took some of the records and made a collogue for his booth. The album and the sleeve looked perfect for both albums, first issues nonetheless. Man, if he didn’t go and do this, he could have had a good penny in his hand. I told him what he had there and what someone would have paid for those albums. His face turned stone cold. He goes and tells me he didn’t keep any of his father’s albums, a good 1200 or so. What most of the world doesn't know

It is now over $100.00 Sitting at $102.00

I have never posted yet in Blindfold Test area. I think I might have visited it maybe 3 or 4 times.

That church has housed many jazz memorial in its time.

Have good one.

Monk dropped off the scene in the 70's. There’s been many reasons discussed through the years why he stopped doing music, but what do the members here think the reason was?

I think we all get that from time to time. We need a break from listening.

Within 5 minutes of me posting this here it up over $60.

Right now, it is going for $1. I don't think it will remain at this price. What do you think the final price will be? I think it will go for $225. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...4027163731&rd=1

It is one of Grant's finest A nice gospel feel to it.

I am not familiar with his playing. Does he sound like any other guitarist that I can compare him to?

I am trying to find out who's on this session. Allmusic states, Billy Byers, Roger Guerin, Armand Migani and Kenny Clarke. Anyone else on this session? It is a sextet session. Thanks

Where's this photo from?

Does anyone know when this place closed?
