This seems a good opportunity to post again the following site: Live Trane - The Real Tracklist

As per the Webmaster, it is indeed the same version of Where Are You.

For example, this: John Coltrane - The Complete Copenhagen Concert 1963 Has this been issued before, whether legit or not?

With all the Gambit releases appearing on eMusic, I'm tempted to revive this thread, if only to trace where the various releases stem from.

That was pretty good. Addresses my comment in another thread about Blonde on Blonde doesn't do it for me because of the drumming/rhythmic thrust. This version gets it right-er.

Three more postings: Where Are You (Length: 16:17 Cost $1.99) Four (Length: 22:38 Cost $1.99) Now's The Time (Length: 11:52 Cost $1.99) Four seems to be a different version than what was posted previously (previous length = 15:57), and Now's The Time was not previously posted. I don't know about Where Are You, as the timing is identical. I'll contact the website to clarify.

Now on eMusic: 100 Days 100 Nights Plus an interview: Sharon Jones Interview Looks interesting; I might download once my points renew.

Oscar Peterson? Uh oh...better cover your ears! Anyway, welcome to the board. May you bring some Canadian civility to the proceedings here. And by the way, the board software allows you to ignore all posts from a poster...I think you can do that from "My Controls."

George, here's hoping for a speedy recovery, and that you resume playing with renewed vigor and fire, and well as your usual taste and harmonic sophistication.

Thanks for posting that. Fascinating article; while the writer did some research, it obviously helps that he had access to the original session reels. I've always thought that the material on Blonde on Blonde suffered from being recorded in Nashville; specifically, the drummer didn't contribute the drive and push (that rocking blues feel) that you hear on BIABH and Highway 61.

Saw an interesting article in Maximum PC, where they performed a blind listening test comparing 128 to 256, using both the Apple earbuds and $400 headphones. The quality of the headphones mattered far more than the encoding rate.

Is this material currently available?

If you can find it, this is a very good summary of his CTI work: The Best of Paul Desmond Because it also draws from his sideman work, the album goes through a lot of different styles, and it flows very nicely.

I grabbed this one this month as well... figured I only spent about $1.50 on it in total. I knew what I was getting into, but damn... So NOT worth the $1.50. There are a couple of decent moments (and I do mean only a couple) that almost make this album worthwhile... not something I can see myself listening to more than once or twice. I love Grant, but this one is strikkly shite! Cheers, Shane You are correct. I heard "Nighttime In The Switching Yard" today. So wan, so pale...not much happening there. Sounds like he was going through a bout of George Benson envy at the time. Our loss.

Anyone heard "This Meets That" yet?

Wow. This one should be cool.

They've just added some titles recorded at Ronnie Scott's: Al Cohn Meets the Jazz Seven Don Byas George Coleman Chico Freeman Another George Coleman (same guy, different album) Benny Golson Sonny Stitt Also: McCoy Tyner (Live at the Musicians Exchange Cafe) Chico Freeman and Arthur Blythe

Jim, at the very least, maybe Verve could pay you for advertising space; could defray some of your costs for maintaining this BB. How about it, Dancer Chick - is it in your budget? After all, UMG is very big on insisting that music listeners pay their own way, rather than downloading. How about walking the talk?

Hmmm. I've got one too. Can you disable pop-ups in your browser? I remember Safari having that ability. I'm using Firefox which I've got all set to disable those, so they just never makes it to my desktop. If it's doing something weird, I usually don't notice. Funny, I just got this new computer...I disabled pop-ups long ago in my old computers, so didn't remember I have to go in and do it. Thanks! Still, I maintain that any site that pushes that crap onto you probably isn't to be trusted.

Wow, between that and your previous comment, your system must be wide open. Sorry, if anyone else has this prob. It doesn't happen here on this machine otherwise I wouldn't have recommended it. Nah, not wide open - I have a Mac. I said it tried; didn't succeed (I hope). But when a pop-up box asks if you want a "free scan" of your computer, I've read elsewhere it wants to install stuff you don't want. And it wouldn't let me close my browser - I had to force quit.

WARNING!!! I went to www.free-covers.com, and it tried to load a bunch of crap on my system!!!

I kinda like the Corky McCoy artwork.

I ordered 4: Count Basie Complete RCA, Lester Young Complete Aladdin and Complete Savoy, and Louis Armstrong Complete RCA.

I'm wary about no-name program add-ons...I don't know whether the program is doing something nefarious on my computer while it's doing its announced task.

There are two mentions of Alan Greenspan in Ira Gitler's book "Swing to Bop." On page 201, David Allyn: "I was on Henry's band, and some of the personnel was interesting. We had Stan Fishelson and Stan Levey. Johnny Mandel, Manny Fox. Let's see, Allen Jeffreys. A good back line. Good players. Incidentally we had a tenor player by the name of Lenny Garment, who today is Leonard Garment. Also, Al Greenspan, who is Alan Greenspan, the economist." And on page 205, Henry Jerome: "I took Tiny (Kahn) as a favor to Lenny Garment. Tiny, for all his lore about him that people of today write - who turned out to be a most progressive and wonderful drummer was the drummer no one would hire. Tiny used to hang around Nola Rehearsal Studios, and he was never considered a good band drummer. He found his niche when this music came in, and he developed really with this band. But he could never really get with a band - no one would use him. The sweetest guy in the world - good-natured kind of guy and he had great potential - but obviously it didn't come out until he started playing this kind of music. Anyway, he ended up being a great one. Ther was another guy, Larry Rivers - the great painter. "We had Trummy Young - he was a sensational guy - great showman from the old Lunceford band, as you know. But what I'm telling you is that we used black guys in those days; the color line was really broken down more in the band business before anything. Al Greenspan, we used as a straight sax player, he's running the country now." (Interview done during Gerald Ford administration.) "He was with us about a year. He used to make the payrolls."
