I recommend:

I was seriously "shop challenged " as well.. In the eighth grade , I worked a WHOLE F@%^%$^!ING YEAR on a pair of bookends.. ..and they never DID meet at a ninety degree angle! I think I made the same pair of bookends!

It's nice.

I hope I'm still doing that well at their age! (84 and 86 years old, respectively.)

I hope to make his hometown gig: Henry Grimes/Marshall Allen duo — Slought Foundation, 4017 Walnut Street, Philadelphia Mar 18 (Fri) — 8-10 pm — $15 ($12 student)

The "Night-Glo" period is not my favorite. (Maybe I'll pull it out again.) But I really think she's doing some very good writing these days -- 4X4 and Looking For America are both well worth a listen.

Perhaps those are tapes that weren't released by Verve? As you note, Granz seemed to hold on to some of the tapes of unreleased material.

My sentimental favorite is her Live in Europe album.

Hell, she barely recognizes her own son!

Just don't tell Chuck about this thread!

Any word on when?

I love this place! The warmth and good will just cheers me up...

I can't believe the left out Soft Machine and Gentle Giant! And I can't believe what Crouch said about Hatfield and the North!

I have the CD. It's Stereo.

Miles Davis - Round About Midnight: Legacy Edition - 2 CDs (Columbia/Legacy) May 10 — disc one features the classic 1957 album — disc two features previously unreleased 1956 live recordings with the lineup of Miles Davis, Philly Joe Jones, Paul Chambers, Red Garland and John Coltrane Another chance to spend some money. Wonder what's on disc two?

Put me down for a c-note. I'm in for a fin... I have a couple Loonies and a Two-nie to donate I believe Finland has longer Winters. Moving there would just give him an excuse to post more.

He didn't make that claim on Saturday. (Maybe he's said it elsewhere.) He did recommend his fellow Philly guys to Art, but I assume that Art's the one that hired them.

Brad, Yes, the box seems to have tracks that are not appearing on the individual reissues. There are eight "previously unreleased tracks" in the box, plus an additional four previously unissued introductions. By my count there are only four bonus tracks among these individual reissues. Four of the unreleased tracks in the box come from the Seven Steps sessions alone, so two tracks are clearly not making it to the individual release. An unreleased version of "Autumn Leaves" is not to be found on either of the Four & More/My Funny Valentine individual reissues. And I think there are three previously unissued tracks from the Antibes date (one of those tracks being an introduction), only one of which makes it to the individual reissue. I'm sure I'm leaving something out. Sounds correct. Now, if this was from Verve...

Do any of the Driggs' photos give credit to the actual photographer?

?

Yes, it's true. Pepe's in Tucson. I can almost taste the salsa now. I might have to make a journey over there this weekend for a Saturday morning breakfast. Do they use spare tires as a fryer?

How could I forget I remember?

That must be "Barney Colt," the black sheep of the Colt family. We might have to send over his second cousin, Denny Colt, to teach him a lesson:

they'll get my evans set when the pry it from my cold dead fingers. If I had gotten one, I'd offer to sell it back to them for $500.00. ;
