A friend of mine received a copy of an email in which the person who claims to be the winner of the Tommy Johnson 78 signs off as "John". Speculation is that it's John Telfer of Blues Images and a fanatical collector. As I say, it's speculation and I don't know if that's so.
Yeah, pictures from Discogs don't show up here. So stop messiaen around.
News to me. I've posted pictures from discogs before. Maybe that's something recent.
Love that box set too, especially the Buck Clayton and Harry Carney's Jamaica Rumble and Shifting Sands.
Well, at least there will be two copies of that box still around after everyone rids themselves of their Mosaics.
Imo, Roscoe Mitchell has more music ahead of him - no matter how much longer he lives - than Vijay Iyer ever will. So I don't think that the "investment in the future" concept is necessarily valid.
