..and a favorite record of mine. Thanks, Chuck.

Not to be a drag but, I think Kimati Dinizulu leaves something to be desired in a Sonny Rollins concert.

You can always get up to date here: Joe Locke It's been a long, long tome since he cut his hair. This is a new one coming up from the concert that the photo above was taken:

Hmmmmm...take a look at this page: Central Park's Harlem Meer and this: Virtual Tour of Harlem Meer With the map, Chris can pinpoint the place where he found them. Tell us Sherlock!

I've known Danny for more that 30 years, but does he still count? If so, he's the only one I've met.

Chris, I'm sure that lake is part of a storm water detention system, so it would rise and fall with the seasons and rainfall. That said, they could be old dock pilings.

I think Terreon Gully is one of the new "sound innovators" on the trap set. He dosn't use a sound delay to get that effect, I'm not sure about the two sticks technique, but it's all done with his hands. You can hear it on Keezer's Wildcrafted cd, and you can see it for your self in NYC when he plays with the Joe Locke / Geoffrey Keezer Group at Dizzy's June 6-11. Terreon Gully

Yes Jim, the same band as above is playing.

Idris Muhammad - The Power Of Soul Power Of Soul Piece Of Mind The Saddest Thing, The Loran's Dance Grover Washington, Jr.; Bob James; Joe Beck; Ralph MacDonald; Randy Brecker

Joe Locke & The Milt Jackson Tribute Band will be playing on 9/4. Bob Cranshaw, Joe Locke, Mike LeDonne, & Mickey Roker

I once saw Braxton ( with Dave Holland and Barry Altschul ) open for Ramsey Lewis during Ramsey's Sun Goddess years. No shit. After their set ended Braxton turned to the others and said "A gig's a gig".

HAROLD MABERN - FALLING IN LOVE WITH LOVE (VENUS) JIMMY ROWLES: OUR DELIGHT ( VSOP). The Chess Players

Mark is not only a master guitarist, but a real Soul Brother who continues to do much for other artists in his capacity as a radio promotion man. No bullshit and a big heart. His new recording is Liftoff: You can get it here: Mark Elf''s CD Page

Re: Airplay and Playlists: Most stations these days are being monitored by Media Guide so there is less hanky panky by program directors, and that's good for the artists and the stations. The JazzWeek chart combines both since not all markets have a "listening monitor" in their area, but a vast majority of the "playlists" are generated by Media Guide.

This is from David Wild's site. I have it on VGM also and the sound isn't that bad: Personnel: Miles Davis, tp;Coltrane, ts;William 'Red' Garland, p; Paul Chambers, b; Philly Joe Jones, dr.

Allen, did you use Mike Marciano or Joe Marciano at Systems Two? Both have big ears and are quick on their feet. Their studios are beautiful.

I see from that link that Sweetwater was on the show. They were one of the bands that played Woodstock, but were left off the record and film, like Bert Sommer and Mountian.

Albert! Show 'em where you live!

Mine is black with silver lettering. On the disc is says " Hi Fidelity Pacific Jazz " - PJ-93. At the bottom is: (M-1000). No date.

As a builder, I find this to be quite amazing, to say the least. He must have the thickest head in mankind or they were very short, small finishing nails. It still must have hurt like hell!
