    Evan Parker

    And over the last several years, portions of the improv concert have been released by Psi Records (which is distributed by Emanem Records).
  2. John Coltrane's "The Other Village Vanguard Tapes" and Cecil Taylor's "Nefertitti." (I'll have to add comments another time. I'm too busy right now, alas!)
  3. Mine is #2973. ← And mine's #2974!
  4. Some people like to listen to recordings; others like to listen to music.
  5. Belated Happy Birthday!! Glad to hear you had a nice day...
  6. Ordered Anita on Sunday; it arrived on Tuesday. (I already had the JJJ.) I've only had time to spin CD 1 (twice!). Sounds good so far! Hope to play some more this weekend.
  7. Some various poetry. (Looking for text to accompany an artist's book I'm working on.)
  8. My condolences to you and your family. It's a difficult experience. (My father died two years ago, and my mother, who's been fighting cancer, engaged a hospice service two weeks ago.)

  10. I think you could have left the waitress a bigger tip.
  11. That site's a bit behind the times -- it's been listed here for a few weeks. -_-
  12. 29 GJT recordings are listed here: http://www.441records.com/greatjazztriodisco.asp
  13. And as an FYI, Test of Time Records (part of 441 Records) has been doing US issues of some of the older Japanese East Wind recordings, starting with the 1977 Village Vanguard recordings with Tony Williams. (And 441 Records did the US issue of Collaboration this Spring.)
  14. Almost finished reading Jonathan Weiner's fascinating book, Time, Love, Memory: A Great Biologist and His Quest for the Origins of Behavior, about Seymour Benzer and the study of the genetic evolution of behavior.
  15. I wish that I knew where I was.
  16. 115F last weekend. (I was in Phoenix.) 83F right now (in Philadelphia).

    Tubby Hayes

    CD Universe is listing five of these titles for pre-order.
  18. Sorry, Patricia, could you say that again? I must have dozed off...
  19. I've been enjoying looking at what you've been finding. I still feel sad about Susannah.
  20. Evan Hunter was a jazz fan before he started writing. He played a bit too. The teacher in Blackboard Jungle was a jazz fan.
  21. There's a decent interview with him on NPR's All Things Considered.
  22. My magic eight ball says end of September.
  23. Today is Lee Morgan's birthday. (WRTI in Philadelphia is doing a tribute tonight.)
