Don Byas does appear on this disc: https://www.discogs.com/master/2720048-Trummy-Young-1944-1946

No that is not correct, nor is that what they are asserting. What they are saying is that only on one cd was any of the material released on cd for the first time--that's how I read their statement. (The Storyville cd "Timme's Treasures."*) All but the apartment tapes have been out on European, US and Japanese cds I believe, and a few of the apartment selections have been out on cd as well. Would make no real sense to seek out all these cds though, would cost more than the Mosaic most likely, and include other material than Don Byas sessions that may or may not be of interest. *https://www.discogs.com/release/12607266-Timme-Rosenkrantz-Timmes-Treasures If you want to do some detective work and find the material on cd go to www.discogs.com and type in Don Byas and you'll find Savoy and National material on cd, probably under "Compilations." Then seek out the sessions Mr. Duckworth provided a listing of on the first page here, you'll find many or most or all on Chronological Classics or Signature or other cds: The following Don Byas sessions of 1944-46 are not included in this set as they are under ownership of various parent labels: Albert Ammons and his Rhythm Kings (Commodore – February 12, 1944) Coleman Hawkins and his Orchestra (Apollo – February 16 and 22, 1944) Eddie Heywood and his Orchestra (Signature – May 2, 1944) Coleman Hawkins and his Sax Ensemble (Keynote – May 24, 1944) Mary Lou Williams and her Orchestra (Asch – June 5, 1944) “Hot Lips” Page and his Orchestra (Commodore – September 29, 1944) Trummy Young and his Orchestra (Signature – December 4, 1944) Cozy Cole’s Orchestra (Keynote – February 2, 1945) Esquire All American 1946 Award Winners (RCA Victor–January 10 & 11, 1946) Dizzy Gillespie and his Orchestra (RCA Victor – February 22, 1946) Teddy Wilson Octet (Musicraft – August 19, 1946) Tyree Glenn and his Orchestra/Don Byas and his Orchestra/Peanuts Holland and his Orchestra (Swing – December 4, 1946)

Abbey Lincoln “The World is Falling Down” Verve cd The title struck me as being appropriate to spin today. And it’s a great group and a fine album. Alto Saxophone – Jerry Dodgion Alto Saxophone, Soloist – Jackie McLean Bass – Charlie Haden Drums – Billy Higgins Piano – Alain Jean-Marie Trumpet, Flugelhorn – Clark Terry Vocals – Abbey Lincoln

SADLY most of the beautiful leaves are now gone (view from my front window)

Happy BD

A Sunday tradition a while back, sort of a substitute going to church for me. Followed by

The lost Marvin Gaye album "War is Hell" Motown Records/Hip-O Select

J. Alfred Prufrock "The Love Song" Eliot Records

Actually one of my least favorite Blue Note periods to be honest.

Beautiful music that has become a part of my DNA. Perhaps my favorite mastering. Antonio Carlos Jobim “Stone Flower” CTI + RVG SHM-CD King Japan

Another Andrew Hill from 1964, the classic “Point of Departure” Blue Note cd Japan UCCQ-9168

Andrew Hill “Andrew!!!” Blue Note Japan SHM-CD UCCQ-5115 An intriguing 1964 release that rewards repeated spins.

Well I was taking a broader view than this puff piece I suppose. These persons I am referencing can speak happily of their love of jazz. . . but that doesn't erase dangerous loneliness. artistic career frustration, family issues (some induced by conflicts of political and religious ideologies), problems with substance abuse et al that are making them non-happy persons. Jazz won't save you from many unhappinesses even if it can be a salve or temporary release or escape.

Our (now probably not) forum member Shawn had a cat named Pyewacket who has passed on now. She was a one person cat! Not nice to others. I had a cat named Marjorie Bouvier Haggerty Armstrong who we got as a kitten and lived to be over 18 years. Now I'm a dog person . . . they're more trouble, but worth the effort.

Looks as if it's going to be an amazing set.

Grant Green "Alive!’ Blue Note Japan UHQCD.

Many are living challenging lives and overall not happy. Has nothing to do with jazz as music per se.

Grant Green “Carryin’ On” Blue Note Japan UCCQ-9518 cd Groovy '69 Green.

One more episode to go of "Invasion" Season 2 (Apple). Then on to "Foundation" Season 2.

Sad. Gone too soon.

Julian Priester/Sam Rivers “Hints on Light and Shadow” Postcards cd This one I spied on the shelf and have not played in quite some time. Not my usual fare, but making for an interesting listen this morning. Followed by Milt Jackson “Plenty, Plenty Soul” Atlantic cd All star early stereo sessions. All but one are Jackson compositions. The ringer is by Cannonball. 768×768 93.4 KB
