1m Tom Lellis “Southern Exposure” Adventure Music cd. A Sunday sort of feeling. . . getting one more hour in of listening before . . .the Browns game takes over the household. I bought this following my rule “consider buying any release you see at a good price on Adventure Music.” Glad I followed the rule. I also have a cd of Lellis with the Metropole Orchestra.

Yes, this breed of miniature dachshunds have sad little legs. They can dig like a dickens though.

Keith Jarrett/Gary Peacock/Jack DeJohnette “Somewhere” ECM cd Man. . . this trio. . . I can never get enough.

As the front end looks so much like my constant companion Fiona. . .it's a little creepy to me.

I changed the front footers on my speakers and added another Shunyata Research “Defender” to the system that I traded a Furutech similar thing for with another audiophile, and I like the results. I revisited this one to check it out, I play this one a lot, I like the front line of Palmer, Ross and Turner a lot. Then on to this Landmark cd from Bobby Hutcherson, “Mirage.”

Makes sense to me. When I was performing as a drummer I was always thinking of accompaniment and style for each number.

Me too. Won't be long now.

Something was up with the forum. It seems responsive now.

I personally think you make too much of Fort Worth and Free Jazz. And by that time there was a big difference in America--radio and TV and other factors (WW2, et al) have created a jazz scene and an American cultural scene that made melting pot even more fondu than ever before. I'll bow out of this discussion as it seems much ado about nothing to me. We won't know if jazz developed around New Orleans or drifted there from elsewhere. What drove me away from college and certain studies is just this sort of discussion which . . . I'm sorry it does little for me.

Most of those non-New Orleans jazz musicians in the earliest years were inspired, referencing, copying or collaborating with New Orleans musicians. Even in Europe, a musician such as Bechet very early on was a force for jazz on that continent. If we are talking the earliest of jazz recordings and references, New Orleans seems to dominate. I'm not making any big claims for New Orleans itself, but I do believe this is a big reason why that city is cited as the genesis of the genre.

I think part of the reason that we associate this new innovation in music with New Orleans is because the Original Dixieland Jazz Band was very popular and viewed as a creative force in popularizing the forms, and also that even in Chicago and San Francisco and NYC where early recordings appear New Orleans musicians are deeply involved in the recordings and the rave appearances (Original New Orleans Jazz Band with Durante, New Orleans Rhythm Kings, King Oliver, many more).

Like their three cds of Strayhorn material, this is excellent. The Dutch Jazz Orchestra “Rediscovered Music of Mary Lou Williams–The Lady who Swings the Band”
