Some nice titles there. Not on Muse, but those Abdullah Ibrahim titles are wonderful!

Happy birthday Julian! What a player and jazz personality! I wish we could have had him around so much longer! Wish he were here today!

Just ordered the Teagarden cd coming out on September 21, live from Olympia Theatre, Paris 1957. . . . CANNOT resist Teagarden I haven't heard!

Lots of magic in the VeeJay years from Wayne, I get most of my Wayne fixes from those sessions these days, and the Miles sessions. . . especially some of the 1966 and 1967 live dates.

Thanks Jim, I've emailed you back. I'd love to see this tape, thanks!

I remember having someone call me from another of our agency's department to tell my then boss to turn on the tv that was in her office because something terrible had happened. That was a few minutes after the first plane had collided. I told her, and then I dashed to the internet to yahoo news. . . . I remember the panic I felt as my wife and I tried to reach (separately from our separate working places) my in-laws in Arlington and couldn't for several hours. Finally the relief when we discovered they were okay. . . their house shook a little as well that day. I remember feeling extreme sorrow for those in NYC and D.C. who had lost family members that day and the days that followed. (I also have to be honest and say I remember feeling from his first appearance in NYC and beyond that Bush was taking advantage of the situation, I didn't feel sincere remorse from him or feel inspired by leadership. But I already abhorred his political actions).

I pm'd you Phil. I DO have the Columbia cds, since their initial release. . . I really like this broadcast though and wish I had the whole thing.

No seriously, I've not seen copies of that one after it went out of print; hard to gauge though because here in Austin you don't often see a lot of used jazz cds beyond the big reissues from the big names. (Then again, I'm not a diligent scourer so disregard what I say in this matter). I think a Mosaic Select IS planned, and it will be welcome.

Pretty much. Of course, now that you've gotten a copy, Blue Note has accelerated their reissue plans. Expect a Mosaic Select soon!

You're going to love it!

Thanks to Marty for helping, I got an email from David, and he's OTAY!

I'm sure it was a great show! There are parts on this recording I like better than the cd release counterpart, and probably the other way around as well.

Thanks!

Dear Folk, I've been listening to a cassette of a NPR broadcast of Mingus' "Epitaph" work conducted by Gunther Schuller and performed in June 1989 from Wolf Trap. The cassette has just about or just over HALF the performance. I would love to be able to hear the second half of the performance! It was a very good night! If anyone has this let's talk! lonjazz@yahoo.com

I just couldn't make up my mind. . . I didn't vote.

Well, no one has heard from DSGTRANE (David Gardner). . . Now I'm worried!

Wow, what a difference a day makes!

I have the three "Jazz Concert West Coast" cds that Savoy/Denon released a decade back. . . . my guess is they'll have found somthing new to add to this stew. . . (?)

I do know what you mean. And it doesn't hurt having Tony building a little bonfire below your hindquarters either!

Mine too! They must have gotten a goodly amount in!

Thanks for the information! I haven't head any of the cds. . . I have the lps but haven't spun them in ages.

Amen. . .very hard to resist. I have these on lps that are not exactly pristine. . . .

YOU and ME BOTH! B-)

One more wrinkle: I think I am remembering correclty that some of the Savoy Lateefs were actually field trips for Yusef and the working band, or recorded when they were in NY for gigs but they were still based in Detroit. . . .
