I will listen to the waves lapping the shore. Too much music to limit it to 10 CD's. Can they be 10 Blu Ray 2 layer disc so that can be 50 gb each? That way more music can be included.

Willie, thanks for the music. RIP.

But there can never be too much Charlie Christian.

It's not like someone discovered a score to an unheard Beethoven string quartet. How much money do the estate thinks can be made? When I was at the museum, the tracks with Christian were about 4 or 5. There were many Goodman tracks without Christian.

RIP Bruce.

Happy Birthday.

The last live show I saw him, he had Gary Bartz on alto and soprano, and Gary did most of the playing/soloing. This was last year.

Rename the Williamsburg Bridge as the Sonny Rollins Williamsburg Bridge https://www.change.org/p/new-york-city-council-new-york-state-assembly-senate-rename-the-williamsburg-bridge-as-the-sonny-rollins-williamsburg-bridge?recruiter=259208&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=share_twitter_responsive&sharerUserId=259208 Letter to New York City Council New York State Senate New York State Assembly New York City Community Boards We, the undersigned, support renaming the Williamsburg Bridge as the Sonny Rollins Williamsburg Bridge in honor of an outstanding New Yorker, the jazz legend Sonny Rollins, who practiced daily on the Williamsburg Bridge from the summer of 1959 to the fall of 1961. At that time, Mr. Rollins was living at 400 Grand Street on Manhattan’s Lower East Side, and through reflection and discipline, adjusted his path and purpose, becoming a model of self-determination and resilience for all New Yorkers. About the Williamsburg Bridge: The Williamsburg Bridge is one of the major crossings of the East River, carrying approximately 140,000 motorists, 92,000 transit riders, 600 cyclists, and 500 pedestrians daily between the boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn, and serving some of the busiest arteries in New York City. Currently, the bridge carries four two-lane vehicular roadways, a south roadway (inner and outer) and north roadway (inner and outer), with two rapid transit tracks (J, M, and Z subway lines) in between. A walkway and a bikeway also run across the bridge. About Sonny Rollins: Sonny Rollins is a jazz tenor saxophonist, composer, and bandleader who has been making music for over six decades. Born in Harlem in 1930, Mr. Rollins is a musical pioneer who has helped jazz bridge the different eras of bebop, hard bop, fusion, free jazz, avant-garde, and post bop. He is considered by many to be the greatest improviser to have ever lived. Rollins is currently 87 years and a living legend from the golden age of jazz. About the Sonny Rollins Bridge Project: The Sonny Rollins Bridge Project seeks to rename the Williamsburg Bridge to commemorate Rollins’ musical sabbatical there from 1959-1961. The project was begun in March 2016 and the effort has received news coverage around the world, including publications in Brazil, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom. The project is working closely with New York City and State representatives to introduce legislation to officially rename the bridge to the Sonny Rollins Williamsburg Bridge.

I was told he did have a stroke a few years ago.

Happy Birthday McCoy Tyner .

That is probably why the tracks having been issued,

When I went to the museum I got to listen to the collection. I am waiting for the Goodman with Christian. That will be something to release next.

A quick glance of this makes you believe there are three tracks from Turrentine's "Up at Minton's" which wasn't issued before. A closer look shows that is not the case. Disc 1 is mainly Turrentine's "ZT Blues." The three so called bonus tracks are they actually unissued music? Complete Recordings + 3 Bonus Tracks

Another loss. RIP Sunny.

Ellington and Coltrane

Coltrane/Hartman. What a great album.
