  1. Any other good examples of Dameronian charts in British jazz? A quick sampling of that Deuchar shows as much of a Mulligan/West Coast influence as Dameron, IMO, though.

  4. Well, that format would be the same as on Waves, but with Ellington instead of Thurman Barker. However, according to this sessionography, Barker was with Rivers in Europe in fall of '79 and Ellington in '80, but Daley doesn't seem to have been included, however, Rivers played Hamburg in May of '79 with the Waves lineup, and at the North Sea Festival summer of '79 with a quartet of Holland, Daley & Bobby Battle, so either you have your years or your drummers mixed up. http://www.bb10k.com/RIVERS.disc.html#78.08.08

    Apparently, in Brazil, the 7 ball is the same as the 8 ball in U.S. billiards, which is how he got his stage name.
  6. Guys like that won't think twice. You can't overturn thousands of years of tradition. I understand that you'd like vindication, closure and revenge, and I'd feel the same way, but realistically I'd say you'd do yourself a favor by moving on. As you say, there are worse cases out there that aren't getting satisfactory resolution, so what do you really have to gain? But if you pursue it you're setting yourself up for plenty of agita and tsuris.

  10. I'll add my kudos on an excellent article. I agree with your Betty Carter reference, as I've been known to describe her style as something like a cross between Betty Carter and Anita O'Day.

  15. French Lick, Indiana is only about 70 miles from Kentucky.
  16. I saw him once, but he didn't sing, he pranced around and played viola: http://www.network54.com/Forum/8980/thread/1085275736/1085317499/Bowie+and+Cale
  17. Not sure exactly what you're saying, but I believe the ads are targeted on a combination of your tracking cookie and the context of the page you're on, so if you have a new computer you'd have no history.

  19. At least 80% of my listening is on the run, during commute, and on the computer at work. I have over 1,000 CDs and hardly ever get a chance to listen to them in that form any more. I've ripped about 20% max of my CDs, but I have a merdeload of downloaded mp3s, especially from the early days of emusic, when they had no download limit for the monthly fee. Now I only buy physical CDs if it's a set with additional material I want (like the Miles bootleg set with DVDs) or if it's not available as downloads (I just bought Bud Powell Live in Geneva, but given the sound quality one doesn't really need "hi-def" media. At work I use mostly Spotify, and at home I listen to Pandora a lot, through my stereo system. Still, I can't part with most of my CDs.

  21. It's sort of like the streets of Brooklyn (not Breukelen--and when I was growing up, before it became the hippest place in America ). But you weren't the target of hostility, were you?

  23. Lots of heated political discussion, not much music discussion. Now if I have a jazz query I'm more likely to post it here (another factor is that J.C. is blocked at work and dis heah site ain't). I didn't realize you were gone that long--at one time you were pretty active over there.
