If you're into film music, try:

Jay McShann/Buddy Tate: Crazy Legs & Friday Strut (Sackville)

Happy Birthday!

Another vote for the Steeplechase recordings.

Muhal Richard Abrams: Lifea Blinec (Arista)

I just listened to Ben Riley playing with Monk's quartet. Made me appreciate Frankie Dunlop even more.

Ok - you're right, Dan. 59 - 20. But FSU could have won. As far as I'm concerned, when your team is beaten that badly, accept it and go home. Don't make excuses.

Well said.

Dan, I know you're from Florida and were probably rooting for FSU, but that sounds like Winston's line after the game - "We beat ourselves". That doesn't take into consideration that Oregon's defense forced three of the turnovers - 2 fumbles were takeaways and the intercepted pass was tipped by an Oregon lineman. Plus, FSU's defense had a world of trouble stopping Oregon's offense.

War causing loss of life is the saddest imo.

Happy Birthday, Marty!

The Louis Armstrong Story Volume 3: Louis Armstrong and Earl Hines (Columbia)

Good pick up, Chuck. Blues Records also lists a 1960 Elektra recording, Empty Bed Blues, with one track, "Baby Bay Blues", where Josh White is backed by "unk ss, p, b, & d", so it could be that session also.

If you decide to explore Ellingtonia, you'll find a world of great music there.

S.E.C. teams got their butts kicked pretty good over the past couple of days.

I checked Jepsen 1942-1962 and Blues Records 1943-1970 and couldn't find any mention of a Josh White session with Pony Poindexter. Perhaps, as you speculate, the session was unreleased.

You'll enjoy the Ellington and Hampton for the rest of your life. When they arrive, sit down, listen, and enjoy.

I hope that no one here who doesn't already have the Ellington Small Group Sessions misses out on it - beautiful classic music. And the Hampton isn't in that class, but it still is wonderful music.
