Cool video.

I'm looking forward to hearing this.

What is it? It's not on dead.net.

I'm currently shopping for a new smoker. I want a barrel smoker, with doors that make it easy to add wood and charcoal, a water pan, and a thermometer. I might get a Weber 18-inch Smokey Mountain Cooker, but I'm still shopping...maybe there's something better.

Happy birthday!

I'm in, I guess, the second batch. I've received no shipping notice, no credit card charge.

Braxton's beyond parody at this point. Oh, I'm sorry, he's a genius.

So start one. I started the Dylan corner...still waiting for my royalty check!

I was thinking of this too! Big difference is that Marvin Gaye was the spiteful one, not the record company. It was masterful: he records a 2-LP set (released at full price, to guarantee zero sales) about how much he hates his ex-wife, puts no singles on it, AND forces his ex-father in law to release it on his record label! Two more masterfully spiteful contractual obligation albums by the artists:

I'd love to find out the story behind the 1973 release "Dylan." From the Bootleg Series, we know what gems were held in the Columbia vaults, yet someone at Columbia pushed this album of outtakes from "Self Portrait," perhaps Dylan's most embarrassing album. This was obviously a release born of spite, in retaliation for Dylan's leaving Columbia for Asylum. Or was it a contractual fulfillment obligation album, perhaps given to Columbia by Dylan himself? Very intriguing.

He got arrested again?

Release date July 10:

To commemorate the 50th anniversary of Frank Zappa’s short-lived 1970 Mothers of Invention lineup, a new four-CD boxed set, simply titled The Mothers 1970, will be released June 26 via Zappa Records/UMe. https://bestclassicbands.com/frank-zappa-mothers-1970-box-set-5-8-200/ This is the band I saw at the Fillmore East in May 1970.

There was a site called Red Hot Jazz, but they might not still be around. http://redhotjazz.com/kingo.html

Glad to see they're still around. Release date May 15: On his second Criss Cross record, From Here To Here, guitar master David Gilmore picks up where he left off on his well-received 2017 label debut, Transitions (Criss 1393). Here, joined by a quartet of New York all-stars comprising pianist Luis Perdomo, bassist Brad Jones, and drummer E.J. Strickland, Gilmore navigates 8 recently-penned originals as well as Sam Rivers' Cyclic Episodes and the Bill Evans-Jim Hall classic Interplay. Throughout the proceedings, Gilmore unfailingly displays virtuosic technical and conceptual chops, exhaustive harmonic knowledge, melodic gifts, luminous sound, and sense of focus and proportion. These qualities made him an indispensable sideman several decades ago during long-term engagements with Steve Coleman and Wayne Shorter -- they've only developed and evolved over time.

Release date June 5: In celebration of the 60th Anniversary of Frank Sinatra's Nice 'n' Easy, the album will be remastered and released on June 5th. Features the original 12 tracks like "The Nearness of You", as well as full sessions of "I've Got A Crush on You" and "Nice 'n' Easy" that include previously unreleased alternate takes and reveals Sinatra studio chatter.

Listed here on "disc 5": http://ubu-space.blogspot.com/2011/02/lester-young-live-and-in-chronological.html Would be nice to have an official release of these recordings.

I would love to find a decently-priced stereo reel-to-reel machine. In my teens, I had one for about a year. I didn't have a lot of money in those days and tapes were expensive, and this was before I got a real stereo. I would record off the radio, using the microphone that came with the machine. Because it was all mono, I recorded as four separate mono tracks (rather than two stereo tracks). I still have the tapes, and would love to hear them again.

A fine date that's on the new Mobley Mosaic; Slide, Dizzy Reece, Philly Joe:

Some sweet George Benson on this:
