  1. Re Warne’s physicality while playing, in the 1983 documentary “Manhattan Studio” by the Norwegian Broadcasting Corporation about Lennie, Sheila Jordan has this to say: "Oh, it used to be a kick to watch Warne… when he was really on … he was so emotional … his whole body used to just move back … you know it was wonderful to watch him play. It was really something to see – and of course to hear …" I guess she’s talking about the early to mid 50’s. Q
  2. Unfortunately the phrase 'fetishize originality' can trigger certain sensitivities on this board ... Most would agree with that. Q
  3. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NBD: NBD can refer to: Contents. [hide]. 1 Banking; 2 Logistics; 3 Computing; 4 Science; 5 Other uses. Banking[edit]. National Bank of Dubai · National Bank of Detroit · National Bank of Dominica. Logistics[edit]. Next Business Day. Computing[edit]. The network block device of Linux. Science[edit]. Neurobiological brain disorder ... I suspect National Bank of Dubai ... Q

  5. Thanks for all your work spreading the message - as long as you can, keep it going ... Q
  6. Whatever - some might also enjoy the double CD Geneva concerts from the 60's, which includes 2 previously unreleased live tracks from the Chicago Blue Note (1956) with Ernie Henry, Paul Chambers and Willie Jones. Q
  7. That seems pretty unusual. Are you sure your payment went through? Q
  8. Which session/ recording are you referring to, Gheorghe? Q
  9. You've got me intrigued Ken. I did a quick search but only Phil Woods came up. Care to share the meaning? Q
  10. We have our moments Q.
  11. Leonard can't have been all that bad ... Mugsy Spanier wrote "Feather Brain" especially for him ... Q
  12. She's a fine singer - Saw her in "Lady Sings the Blues" - the soundtrack recording was top in Billboard for awhile in '73. Lennie Tristano thought she was great and wrote to Downbeat saying so. (That's the gist of Jim's French quote). Never seen that book - no English translation? Q
  13. Same could be said about Art Pepper - there are many examples of the time ... Q.
  14. Motohiko Hino died of cancer in 1999. He was a superb drummer. Q
  15. Yes, beware: I snapped disc 3 of the Basie/ Lester Studio Sessions. Scott kindly replaced it for me. Mosaic must be aware there is a problem. Q
  16. AND who also put together the excellent "Bird in Time" 4CD set on ESP (?) ......
  17. Latest Newsletter (8/2) says the Benedetti Bird is running low. Don't they own that? Q.
  18. He could play. One of those unsung cats – recorded with Stitt, Gene Ammons, Al Haig, Hank Mobley etc.. Nice CD as leader w. Hank Jones. Joel Fass often mentioned him when he was here. Loss all round. Q
  19. The alternate take of "Lady be Good" is superb. You need both - the original and the alternate! Q
  20. Received notification this a.m. the Lester set has shipped. Can't wait to hear alternate "Lady"! Thank you Mosaic. Q
  21. Probably the UCLA Library archives - http://guides.library.ucla.edu/c.php?g=180281&p=1187918 Q.
