Yes, it's been attributed to Hawk, and I have it on the Affinity set and I'm sure it shows up in the Classics series. But when I last listened to it a few times when getting the Oracle cd set I could believe it was not Hawk. . . .
No, if I'm remembering correctly this was determined recently NOT to be a session involving Hawkins, but McCord, who was a musician in a band associated with Purvis at the time. . . . Details are in the Jack Purvis three cd set on Jazz Oracle(that I am about ten miles away from at the moment).
I've been listening to a lot of Cannon lately (Capitol stuff, which I have most of but still lack a few dambit!) and this is a whole 'nother animal but one worth petting again!
Gosh Yes, Philly Joe. . . well when he's ON he was AMAZING and so powerful! And sometimes you just had to wonder, and then he'd pull it off with amazement! (And then sometimes he just NEVER got it, like in a live performance of "Rosa Mae" I have with Mary Lou Williams).
My wife is loving that one. . . I participate sometimes reluctantly; has its moments.
I love the latest teaser for tonight: "Two words. . . Oma . . . Rosa." TWO WORDS?
SIMON COWELL: "IF I'm being honest here Joe, not only was that PAINFUL to watch, but you just don't LOOK like a pop star when you are doing that. . . or when you are NOT doing that."
I've only seen Being John Malcovitch of the two, but thought it was genuinely funny and yes, not run of the mill; my wife and I really enjoyed it and I've been wanting to rent it lately to see it again.
Or to answer the question another way. . . I really have since about 1990 been buying more and more of material from the time period of the recordings of the Original Dixieland Jazz Band through the emergence of Charlie Parker as "the shit."
Usually between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. though on the weekends it may be early morning right after Tower opens (until the store itself goes away, which is going to happen in a few months DAMNIT).
The previous, Doubletime, version's back cover only had seven tracks listed for volume one I believe. . . well, I just checked, it does and a different playing order.
Sure you have the RVG? (I know, I know, just checking).
Fuller was the producer or one of them of Britain's "Pop Idol" which this show sprang from, and Cowell was one of the judges of that show. . . . I personally am very tired of Simon and Randy, I don't mind Paula, who is more tactaful with these people on spectacle. Randy has done pop production, he does indeed have credentials, and probably more of an idea of what AMERICAN pop is about than Simon in my estimation.
I'll miss Camille actually . . . I think she could develop into a good singer. She's so much better than John Stevens who I've hated from audition one. . . .I can't believe he's still there!
Personally, I think that's bullshit. The man can play, he plays better now in my opinion than he did with Blakey and in the Blues Alley days. Just my opinion.
That's what I would say too. . . nicely summed up there Harold. John, I'd say NO, you don't NEED to get this set; there is more important Ory out there and in your holdings. . . .
