I forgot Kenny Burrell.

Looks like Terry Gibbs, Martial Solal, Dick Hyman, Sheila Jordan, Marshall Allen & Bill Crow in addition to Sonny are the last notable contemporaries alive from that era. Guys like Herbie, Reggie Workman & Ron Carter came of age in the next generation.

Yep. And Quincy.

RIP Lou. Who is still with us from that era? Sonny, Roy Haynes, Reggie Workman, Terry Gibbs... Who else?

He was mastering engineer/tape historian for Fantasy Studios and remastered tons of OJCs. But that's just the tip of the iceberg careerwise. His passing was perhaps avoidable.

Apples and oranges. Highly doubt the Lighthouse set will be reprinted in LP form. The CD version, yes. But hey, if a repress of the vinyl shows up next week, I'll gladly eat my words. Given the current pressing plant issues with vinyl, I don't see it happening.

Can see why it's commonly confused. The "commencement" marks the start of something new after graduating.

Saw an article the other day where they used the word "commence" to describe the conclusion of something.

BN site now sold out of the vinyl edition. That was quick. Don't think popmarket, amazon or similar places are going to get any more considering there are only 2K made. Now, it's probably gonna go for ridiculous prices from the usual suspects.

Looks like 8 of the Mosaics are still available. The prices aren't too shabby at all. Cheaper than when I bought some of the boxes from promotion sales directly from Mosaic or FleeceBay. http://bluesandjazzmart.com/mosaic.htm

Interesting. His Wiki and all online obits still list 1934 as well for obvious reasons.

RIP. Was Jazz Record Mart similar to Jazz Record Center in NYC?

Whoops, Andra, not Audra.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8521718/ Has anyone else seen this Hulu film? It is a bit of a mess direction wise, but R&B singer Audra Day does a fine job as Lady Day,.

Eulis Cathey passed on April 27. Many of you may know him from his time at SiriusXM & WBGO among his various other endeavors in the jazz community. https://buffalonews.com/obituaries/features/eulis-m-cathey-jr-67-radio-host-who-became-a-major-figure-in-jazz/article_745720f0-aba3-11eb-b074-0b9716697ed3.html

Remembering Malcolm Cecil, Synth Pioneer and Stevie Wonder Producer - NYS Music Sort of "old" news as Cecil passed away earlier this week, but didn't see a thread on it. Man, I need to check out those Expanding Head Band albums.

Love the IASW box, but the background coloring of the liner notes in the accompanying book has accounted for much of my poor vision while trying to read them. . Don't know who at Legacy/Sony signed off on that clashing orange/blue/white design. The words are barely decipherable in many parts of the notes. Yes, if only they would reissue that one too. But I'm definitely jumping on the OTC set. It was pretty pricey even when it was available the first time around.

I don't think so. Apparently, I missed it by a hair.
