A Freudian slip of the tongue?

Here's a few photos of the Wegmans in Pittsford, N.Y. where I live:

Happy Birthday, Jeff!!

Wegman's is a hometown product, although they are in five states now ( in fact one of the Wegman dynasty used to live across the street from me). The stores and the produce are immaculate. Picture perfect, in fact. The store closest to me has so much variety, along with restaurants, prepared meals and products of every variety that I couldn't begin list everything here. I know that the stores in other states are so popular that they are actual destination for people and families. No shit. They are also generous employers who take check out boys and girls, pay towards their education, and turn them into managers. Really a class organization.

I heard her many times back in the day when she was based in Toronto and played in the Western New York area. Nice memories.

Here's the lot for the good ole' US of A: Works Originally Created on or after January 1, 1978 A work that is created (fixed in tangible form for the first time) on or after January 1, 1978, is automatically protected from the moment of its creation and is ordinarily given a term enduring for the author's life plus an additional 70 years after the author's death. In the case of "a joint work prepared by two or more authors who did not work for hire," the term lasts for 70 years after the last surviving author's death. For works made for hire, and for anonymous and pseudonymous works (unless the author's identity is revealed in Copyright Office records), the duration of copyright will be 95 years from publication or 120 years from creation, whichever is shorter. Works Originally Created before January 1, 1978, But Not Published or Registered by That Date These works have been automatically brought under the statute and are now given federal copyright protection. The duration of copyright in these works will generally be computed in the same way as for works created on or after January 1, 1978: the life-plus-70 or 95/120-year terms will apply to them as well. The law provides that in no case will the term of copyright for works in this category expire before December 31, 2002, and for works published on or before December 31, 2002, the term of copyright will not expire before December 31, 2047. Works Originally Created and Published or Registered before January 1, 1978 Under the law in effect before 1978, copyright was secured either on the date a work was published with a copyright notice or on the date of registration if the work was registered in unpublished form. In either case, the copyright endured for a first term of 28 years from the date it was secured. During the last (28th) year of the first term, the copyright was eligible for renewal. The Copyright Act of 1976 extended the renewal term from 28 to 47 years for copyrights that were subsisting on January 1, 1978, or for pre-1978 copyrights restored under the Uruguay Round Agreements Act (URAA), making these works eligible for a total term of protection of 75 years. Public Law 105-298 [http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/bdquery/z?d105:SN00505: |TOM:/bss/d105query.html| ], enacted on October 27, 1998, further extended the renewal term of copyrights still subsisting on that date by an additional 20 years, providing for a renewal term of 67 years and a total term of protection of 95 years.

I have to admit, that I do this sort of thing all of the time. When someone inherits my collection, there's going to be a few surprises.

I'm fuckin' speechless...

Yes, Peter,I came with Barry and probably said hi to you with him! I also remember that the next day Jimmy Wormworth wanted to see his daughter who going to school in Brockport ( about 20 miles away), but he wouldn't get in Vinnie Ruggiero's car!

I met him long ago when he was with Jimmy Rowles (well, almost). Wormworth was to play with Rowles for the first time (with Michael Moore on bass), but Rowles was so inebriated the first night (falling off the stool, etc.) that they were fired before the first night ended. A real shame. The next day in Michael's room, where we all got together with friends, was like a wake. His daughter Tracey is a electric bassist who has played with Wayne Shorter.

Trevor, give us a link to your blog.

A fan of Joe Locke's took Joe and his girlfriend, Clarence Penn and his wife and me and my daughter Danielle (pictured) to a area ABOVE the observation deck, where you could hang over the edge (not me!) if you dumb enough. These pictures don't really show how absolutely terrifying it was, especially in a 40mph wind! Oh yeah, Danielle leaned over! This little knee wall was all there was between you and the sidewalk!

Paul! Happy Birthday!!

This is great, Tom!

I'll try to put some links together about Vinnie, but when he lived in Rochester, he was the inspiration to many there including Joe Locke. I forget who, but some rather well know musician called him "The White Man's Philly Joe Jones. That's pretty apt, but he really was a amazing drummer. He had his substance and attitude problems, alas. Vinnie played drums with Chuck and Gap Mangione in the early 60s, including the Spring Fever album. Hi son Charles, is a drummer also. He's also on this Soul/Funk record, that was a local his with "Give Me One More Chance" One of the better recordings is Sal Nistico's "Comin' On Up". There some video of him around playing with Lionel Hampton in the sixties ( I think it's at Mr. Kelly's), and a video from the 70's at a outdoor concert.

When my daughter lived across from Prospect Park in Brooklyn, I read about the wild Parrots there.

Nope!

Eddie and his wife live a nice life in Santa Fe, and he plays the shit out of the clarinet. I also loved his tenor playing with Thad and Mel. One time I said to him "I'll always love you for your tenor solo on ""Mornin' Reverend" ( Thad & Mel - Monday Night at the Village Vanguard).

I took it as a challenge to find something about he on the web and found nothing except for the above and that she was from San Francisco. Nothing after Kenton.

Happy Birthday, Mike!!

I taped it off the radio back in the day. Pearl Bailey, who IIRC wasn't invited to sing as a part of the program, really ruins the song she's on. The group with Max and Sonny is oddly off kilter, but the real delight is Cecil Taylor.

I agree. She's the real thing.

Slim pickings, huh? I see that Chris Potter is playing also and Gregory Porter is a fine singer. By the way, aren't you Brits just about sick and tired of Jamie Cullum by now?
