Perhaps that Resolution was from another night at the Showboat?

"Live at Birdland"

Several are available on yourmusic.com

I think it has something to do with the recent deletion of a table on the board? Anyway, yes, I'm not a person any more. Not sure what I've become though!

Ah jazzann, you're now ready for RAY NANCE, one of the BEST! Such a sound!

Ray Nance, "Body and Soul" a UA session reissued on cd by Mighty Quinn Records.

I wouldn't call the sound "very bad" myself. . . it's just not "good." A few offmike moments you wish weren't there, but it can be listened to. . . .

Yes, out before, I have the premiere cd issue.

Re-read the two K. W. Jeter "Blade Runner" books: The Edge of Human, and Replicant's Night. I'm of a divided mind about these. Some great parts. . . some parts that I just don't think fit. Writing is definitely not PhilDickian to me, but what do I know! Now breezing through the Ashley Kahn book on A Love Supreme. I like it more than its sister book about Kind of Blue. . . .

Listening to the second disc of the "A Love Supreme" "Deluxe Edition" two cd set. That concert is amazing! And I really like the two versions of "Acknowledgement" that add Archie Shepp and Art Davis to the Quartet. Yes, I think all concerned (okay, Trane) made the right decision to use the Quartet version of this for the real release. BUT I still like the sextet versions. Love that arco bass!

Yes, just one and a half cds of June on that set. If you want just a taste or a teaser of the Lee material, there's a short cd with some of these great sides. . .

Cary, hope it's wonderful, bang those bells and have one helluva one!

Thanks for Duke, God!

Right, Sun Ship is one of those nonRVG Impulses. But great music. Your post inspired me to cue it up (I've been listening to the Classic Quartet box set via my iBook for a few days.)

For me it's "Crescent," one of my very faves.

I'm going to pick up the Mosaic on their next sale.

Bol, pretty prominent really. A lot of it is small group stuff centered on his guitar. . . other guitars present too. . . I think you'd dig it, especially if you like those Benny appearances by Peggy. She's just such a wonderful singer. . . I resisted her a long time but now I've become sort of a nutty Lee completist. . . . In the Mosaic set there's nice stuff by Christy too, another singer I've come to love. (I'm tipping my hat to Rob Green, infrequent poster here, who has helped me navigate through the recordings of Peggy and June!)

So what have you put together as a stereo system? I'm a Decware user . . . www.decware.com . . . have their modified cd player, Zbox, EL34 Monoblock amps and Radial speakers. The flexibility of the latter has really meant that I enjoy cd playback more than ever before. Curious to the solution you've found. . . . Thanks.

Very interesting two cd release which is being sold right now by cduniverse for ELEVEN DOLLARS. They've included all the performances EXCEPT for the fascinating two selections fronted by Larry Lee, damn it. (Mastermind Man, Gypsy Woman). And of course there are only occasional sonic evidence of Larry, Juma and Jerry if you listen really really hard. It has always always really burned me up that they recorded this with an ear to ingnoring totally the expansion of the band. That said. . . .Man the picture is better on the original version, there's about 23 more minutes of stuff, the thing looks better because they remixed it with more camera angles, etc. AND the black and white film I find pretty fascinating in its way. Some reviews of this say that most will just watch the "Second Look" once; I'm going to watch that more than once. What is that woman holding throughout the performance? A cat?

Yeah Tesch! If only he'd (or anyone then) had a seat belt. . . . We'd have a lot more interesting music.

I guess the most intersting (to me) items I have at home are some purchased in Ethiopia in '66 and '67 and '68: a few knives, an elegant fly whisk, a beautiful large wooden carving (a wall hanging) of a priest, a shistra, a few woven baskets. I also have an ivory arm brace that a friend of mine from boarding school in M'Babane gave me. And in another sense of unusual I have a series of digital prints (framed) of jazz musicians that were done by musican and artist Don Van Selus (one time contibutor to the BN Board and here) that I cherish.

Mosaic is making great contributions to the Columbia reissue program. . .both in sets and singles!

Oh yes, it wasn't even announced when I wrote that post, but I preordered the cd when it was announced and have been enjoying it ever since it was released.

Listened to this Jazz at Lincoln Center broadcast recently, really cool! Jazz at Lincoln Center Radio with Ed Bradley Featured Program Pillars Of Paris: Martial Solal And Herve Sellin Pianist Martial Solal’s music is a staple of Paris’ artistic life. But, his jazz hero is American composer Thelonious Monk. His affinity for Monk becomes clear with his treatment of "Well You Needn’t." He also debuts his Jazz at Lincoln Center commission "Pour Lincoln" with saxophone veterans Phil Woods and the late Steve Lacy, along with his brilliant rhythm section, the Moutin bothers. Pianist Herve Sellin leads his tentet. http://www.jalc.org/radio/program.asp?programNumber=162

Mark, yeah I think so. I was home just about 20 hours over Friday night and Saturday afternoon; now I'm back in Houston for the week with my wife's treatment. I listened to the cd a few times in my stereo system (how I miss it) and then loaded it into iTunes on my iBook. It did have printing on the cd that I remember running right towards the center.
