Two tracks Ira did with Blakey were released on this LP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Originally

Lovely people.

It was announced just the day before that Pigpen had died. There was a show the night before, and rumor was it was "off" - very low energy. The show I saw was great. We wondered whether they'd do "He's Gone" - they didn't, and didn't say a word about him. I remember waiting outside the Nassau Coliseum for hours waiting to be let in. It was St. Patrick's Day, and someone passed out green-colored bagels. The Coliseum's doors were glass, and the crowd was pressing hard against the doors to be let in; those doors took a lot of punishment, and I thought the glass might break (they didn't). I remember how long they took between songs to tune. I remember a very upbeat "They Love Each Other," and was surprised by the slower version on Garcia's "Reflections" album.

I saw them the week before: Nassau Coliseum, 3/16/73. It was my first Dead show. Available on archive.org.

Would've loved to hear that. It's a problem with their subscription business model: they want you to pay a year in advance, and you don't know what they plan to release. For every 1/2 & 1/3/70, it seems we get far more 9/2/83 (to give just one example).

I'm pretty well set on Dead shows. Not sure what else I'd need. I'd like to hear more shows from the second half of 1969, if tapes exist.

RIP. Had an interesting, creative mind; he'll be missed.

Could be Kenny Clarke. Osie Johnson? Roy Haynes?

Tommy, can you get this title? You were out last time: 31090 Dexter Gordon Swiss Nights, Vol. 2

In general: No credit given to the original license holder (something like: Produced under license from Sony). No backstory on how this label acquired these tapes. No one taking production/reissue credit. No reissue engineer noted. No interview with anyone still alive who participated in the original sessions (i.e., Sonny). To contrast, from Mosaic's recently released Paul Desmond box: Produced for release by Don Thompson, Chad Irschich and Michael Cuscuna Original sessions produced and recorded by Don Thompson Executive producer: John Snyder Disc 1 – 6 remixed by Chad Irschich, Inception Sound, Toronto in 2019 from the original analog 4-track tapes Disc 7 remixed by Gary Gray, Manta Studio, Toronto in 1975 from the original analog 4-track tapes.

Manufactured by Universal Music Enterprises, a Division of UMG Recordings, Inc. B0031354-02 But I wouldn't sweat it. I've made my peace with releases such as these. Bootlegs have been around since the dawn of the record industry. It's not up to us to parse how legit a particular release is. If Sonny (or Sony) ever releases a legit version, buy it with pleasure, especially now that you know how good is the music. Just my point of view.

I used to have this:

Did you read the article?

I certainly understand the impulse to censor. I can no longer listen to Pink Floyd because of Roger Waters's anti-semitic ravings, and have difficulty listening to Elvis Costello because of his anti-Israel, pro-BDS stance. I respect Van Morrison for his point of view. The science is nowhere near as settled as the near-monolithic views here might imply. Consideration must also be paid to all the people (musicians included) who are losing their livelihoods and careers because of broad lockdowns, and somehow a balance must be struck that includes all divergent needs. Van is 75 years old and therefore part of the most vulnerable demographic; if he insists strongly on this, perhaps it's not based in "paranoia" or a "conspiratorial mindset" - maybe people can disagree on how to interpret the science and the best paths for moving forward. https://nypost.com/2020/09/18/by-the-numbers-its-hard-to-see-how-lockdowns-saved-many-lives/

He's now gained my respect. Speaking truth to power and all that.

Release date October 30: In 1978, Dexter Gordon signed with Columbia, which boosted his career and allowed him to form and groom his own working band for the first time in his life. The wonderful quartet included George Cables on piano, Rufus Reid on bass, and Eddie Gladden on drums and was at its peak, as this November 8, 1978 concert at the Chƒteauvallon Jazz Festival bears out. Dexter is in a joyous and fiery mood, peppering his solos with outrageous quotes from other songs and stretching out.

Release date October 16: This CD is the second part of a series we hope to be issuing featuring the great Count Basie and his Orchestra performing 'live' at Birdland, it features three separate performances: January 6, 1953, January 7. 1953 and January 8, 1953 and beside the usual all star line-up includes guest Lester Young featured on Jumping At The Woodside, Every Tub and Pres.

Done. Thanks for the reminder, and for all you do.

The cable box should be a separate unit from the WiFi router, but I can’t speak to your particular equipment. We have a TiVo box with a CableCard inserted.

External Hard Drive (EHD) connects to your laptop via USB. I use Comcast, and the cable modem and wifi are one unit. You should inquire with Comcast as to replacing your older equipment at no cost to you. Color laser printer: I have a Brother that's worked flawlessly. The wifi connection is easy. If you need to, you can do a wired connection, but since you have a laptop, you'll really appreciate not being tethered to a printer.

If I may ask: Which cloud service do you use? How much storage do you use? What does it cost per month or year?

If you have a Mac, you can do the same with the built-in program Disc Utility.

If you're sure the program actually wrote to the EHD before it became non-responsive, you could try removing the disc from its casing and transferring it to a hard drive enclosure, such as: Sabrent (Just do a search for "hard drive enclosure;" there are tons of them available. The above link is just an example.) Of course, if the EHD failed before your program saved, then you're out of luck regardless. Couldn't hurt to risk $25 or so to find out.

LOL!!! That's Herb Alpert! It's actually the cover to this: https://www.amazon.com/Herb-Alpert/dp/B08F7ZVS66/ref=sr_1_22?dchild=1&fst=as%3Aoff&qid=1600035402&refinements=p_n_date%3A1249114011&rnid=1249111011&s=music&sr=1-22
