  1. Nice find Tali! I like this collage a lot: http://publicity.rounder.com/images/morton...th_Vignette.jpg Man, I still cringe listening to Jelly on these discs. . . not sound I can ease in to, too scrubbed, but boy is it great to experience as far as education and entertainment!
  2. The latest "Jazzbeat" from George H. Buck. .. with Butterbeans and Susie on the cover.
  3. But. . . it wasn't Fathead's date. .. seems natural to me. Been listening to a lot of Ray Charles lately. . . Fathead and Hank and Marcus et al just playing their asses off!
  4. No, because my wife is not likely to be feeling too well at Xmas, we had ours already. I got a dvd recorder. . . I'm making a burn of a Miles appearance on vhs right now! I like that Steppin' Out thread. . . mine is the earlier version. . . going to have pull that out and listen soon.
  5. She plays beautiful piano too.
  6. Marian is such a wonderful host and her show yields many great musical moments and bits of knowledge that are wonderful to hear. Long may she continue!
  7. There were at least four. . . that may have been all there were. . . I can't seem to get the exact number from my memory. There were some volumes with six or more discs within. . . lot of music!
  8. I like the Gordon Parks collaboration a bit more than the live at the Blue Note.
  9. Yes, I found out this had come out. I'll pick it up after the holidays I think.
  10. I heard there's a hidden track where Chuck Berry plays tenor.
  11. I have the Mayfield Sextet. Sound is excellent. Performance is. . . okay to good.
  12. Wow! This thing might actually ship this weekend or next week!
  13. In my opinion Rudy's remasering of the Monk, Jackson, Davis et al disc and tape material he did not record is the best sounding cds of the material.
  14. I tried on 50 before you a few months and it's okay. But word to the wise: be sure your wife gets her medical checkups! Happy Birthday!
  15. Yeah. . . "Sunshine Daydream". . . I finally got to see that thanks to a kind gentleman. Those early film pieces of the Dead from "Acid Test" era are very cool!
  16. Velma in way over her head? You seriously underestimate the woman. Pops didn't!
  17. Hmmm. . . I love Velma Middleton as well. . . but I don't see a connection otherwise!
  18. L, thanks for the description. I love those guys. Thank goodness RW is still with us giving his all!
  19. Cool Matthew. . . .Though I had the opposite reaction. . . the ten cd set has made me warm even more to Pigpen!
  20. I noticed that Dusty Groove got it in. .. (I didn't order it, I'm broke!) and they also had all four boxes of Jazz in Paris this weekend at 19.99!
  21. Man, I've never seen that four cd set, I tried to find it for a long time, but it came out when the Davis estate was really clamping down on imports of Davis concerts. I did get all four discs separately in the excellent Sony/Trema digipak series of these concerts. Sounded better than other Europe 1 cds I had too. If you can find those they're very nice (even though their cover photos are a bit whack on a few).
  22. I don't WANT to see Munich. I do want to see Kong. .. . I am convinced that Jackson's version will be eway better than the second one and in the spirit of the first. . . .
  23. The only one I don't have of those is the Rockin' the Rhein. . . . DPs 19 and 20 would be good picks indeed!
  24. I have the Condon. I"ve lived with the original lp for years. I love the session. The sound on the cd is more "ambient" ---more room sound, a more recessed presentation. I like that though after years of the original presentation it's a little unsettling. But if you weren't familiar with the lp it would be a great remastering and sound and it's a very cool performance. Extra material as well, a good slab of it. The songs are from the repretoire of the OJDB mostly, but not done in OJDB style. Chicago style all the way!
  25. I really like the Oslo performance. And the Holland. And. . . . Hmmmm. . . . I like them all!
