Pigeons?!

I have the Galper and it is all acoustic and very good.

Cadence has hundreds of them, so it seems. Cadence Music Sales One of my favorites is "Among Friends" by Cedar Walton

Happy Birthday Rod, it's been nice to read your posts!

Is that the one that was filmed at the Smithsonian ? Sorry, but I find that one a total bore.

I have this one on lp: Figure & Spirit Lee Konitz Ted Brown Rufus Reid Albert Dailey Joe Chambers Nice band, huh?

The above is the most straight forward post you have ever made Clem! Not that I don't enjoy what you have to say otherewise, but my little ole, seriously under - educated brain, can decipher just so much at one time. I thought that Ola Dara was a jive avant player also and you may be right that his blues is closer to his real self, but it's still a pose with not much to say after all. Not that not saying much is wrong, but the attitude that you're doing something important or original is lame. "Not that not saying much is wrong, but the attitude that you're doing something important or original is lame" For the record: I did not mean to write "You're" to mean any one here, but I was taking about the artist. Myself, I can't carry a tune, and as for Clem, I'm having a good time working with my decoder ring! There was one time that I thought that you were working out the cut & paste Wm. Buroughs method, though. Carry On!

Mike gives great interview. You can hear him here: KSJS

Yes, "Upside Your Head!".... a good one.

Some others that I've enjoyed are: Hampton Hawes - Raise Up Off Of Me Dizzy Gillespie - To Be or not To Bop Mingus - Beneath the Underdog Chet Baker - As Though I Had Wings Bechet - Treat it Gentle Yusef Lateef - Something Else ( The whole quartet contributes writings ) Dicky Wells - Night People There's a bunch more that I could mention also by: Earl Palmer George Shearing Buck Clayton Red Callender All of these have their moments. What makes these most interesting to me is the process to create this music, and the brotherhood that is nessesary.

Citi Movement (Griot New York) Wynton Marsalis w/ Garth Fagan

"Close Enough For Love" is my favorite on Rev-elation. Here's the band last year taken by Yours Truly:

I read it the other day. To say that he's angry, is a understatement. There was a peroid when he had something to say on the trombone.

There are many examples of great later day Higgins: Jimmy Heath - Love and Understanding Jimmy Heath - Picture of Heath ( one of the great tenor recordings ) Cedar Walton - Among Friends Billy Higgins - Soweto ( with Bob Berg and Billy on guitar and drums ) Clifford Jordan - Night of the Mark VII Clifford Jordan & The Magic Triangle - Firm Roots ( Voices Deep Within Me ) Clifford Jordan - The Pentagon

Those Sweet Basil recordings with Cedar are favorites of mine.

Jim, I once had a wiser and older man tell me when my 4 kids were young : "Bigger children, bigger problems". Enjoy them when they are at this stage and when think you're the whole world.

I saw Tony Williams do Blackbird live a couple of times. He made silk out of a sow's ear. Live, as on the recording, he ended the song with a section that he plays only on the cymbals, dancing from one to another for a couple of minutes. It really flowed. What a Master! Tim Garland - Geoffrey Keezer and Joe Locke do a nice version on their Storms / Nocturnes cd.

Could that be Kenny Burrell and Charles McPhearson? Pepper Adams on baritone, for sure. Kai Winding on trombone.

Dizzy Gillespie once told me that his wife wouldn't let Babs in their house.

I read somewhere that Florida had the most lynching of any southern state. Here it is: Florida's legacy of voter disenfranchisement
