Vagina - Monologues Pussycat Dolls Pussy Willow - SIngs for Me!

ACCENT ON THE BLUES - John Patton, James "Blood" Ulmer(g), Marvin Cabell (ts, saxello, fl), Leroy Williams (d). Bluesy, funky, and also spacey.

Well, sort of. It's two sessions with different personnel mashed together, recorded by MPS, put out by Prestige. It's got part of Hip Walk. Carmell Jones in Europe 1965-66 Prestige 7669 Group A Carmell Jones- trumpet Nathan Davis- tnr,sop Francy Boland- p Jimmy Woode-b Kenny Clarke- d Group B Carmell Jones- trumpet Pony Poindexter- alto,voc Leo Wright-alto,flute Fritz Pauer-p Andre Condouant-gtr Jimmy Woode-b Joe Nay-d Annie Ross- voc Carmell’s Black Forest Waltz (A) Jumpin’ at the Woodside (B) That Kaycee Thing (A) B’s Blues (A) The Hip Walk (A) Twisted (B)

Brotz, Parker, Drake came through US last year. I think I saw them twice on that trip. Yeah, it's a great show.

Two sets! (albeit 45 min each). I've only seen Braxton do single sets timed to the big sand dial he uses (about an hour). Would like to see that group! I've seen him a few times, and he never fails to knock the stuffing out of me. Mostly solo performances but not all.

That Shipp "For Duke" should be really good. I heard him play much of it in concert and it was great. And Roscoe of course........

More of these threads.

The Monkees = better junior high dance music. The Byrds = better "smoking" music At least that's how it looked in the now-dim recesses of the 1960s.

Got some grit!

That's a funny story! The show was filled with gaffes like that. Its sheer downmarket quality seemed to be its main attraction. Wasn't there also some long-running joke about Joe's toupe (or lack of one). Frankly, I didn't realize he had made it this far.

I listen too, just not as impressed with non-Ra performances. My premise is really quite simple: Gilmore plays so much better with Sun Ra than he does elsewhere, it just leads one to wonder why. Was it something with Sun Ra, or something innate to Gilmore. Probably both: Ra's overarching structure, and Gilmore's need to play with people he was friendly with. I don't really know, but find it a curious case. That Dizzy Reece LP he's on is stunning. Leeway, I suggest giving it a listen. I don't have a ton of Ra (just never got the bug), so my listening to Gilmore - with La Roca (as badly recorded as that record is), Bley (ditto), Hill, et al. - has been mostly these non-Ra sideman dates, and he's never failed to deliver heavy goods. I just replayed the CD of that album ("From In to Out"), and while Gilmore does get off one or two good volleys, he's probably the 3rd or 4th most effective person on the album. Not knocking his performance, just saying it doesn't set any new bars for me. But I'll reconsider if I'm being too hard on Gilmore, and give me something to think about when I listen to Sun Ra.

Things like this concert are part of Roscoe's greatness. Should be a superlative concert.

Let's wait and see what they do. Maybe you're right, but I expect more than they did in Spygate.

No, it's much ado about something. Cheating. If the Pats had not been caught before, I might give them the benefit of the doubt. But they have. I'm sure the Pats cheated; they are just surprised that the reaction of the NFL has been this severe.
