king ubu Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 is that "cuu-oggi" as in "aggie" or as in italian "oggi"? Quote
Pete C Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 I'm assuming it's an Italian name and therefore the gh is a hard g, as in go. Quote
king ubu Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 Yeah, so then "oggi" was a misleading transcription for Italian-savvy folks ... but since the guy wants to boogie, who cares (uh, I just see it was "oggy", so that's that!) Quote
Pete C Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 Get up and boojie! I hope I'm not confusing any Dutch people... Quote

king ubu Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 Patti Bown, I've often wondered ... as in "Brown"? Or as in "bone"? Quote
Big Beat Steve Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 Patti Bown, I've often wondered ... as in "Brown"? Or as in "bone"? I supposes this depends on which part of the English-speaking world you come from. Quote
king ubu Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 the swiss-german-speaking part what about Don Moye? Do you pronounce the "e" at the end? Quote
Big Beat Steve Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 what about Don Moye? Do you pronounce the "e" at the end? I don't think so. I'd classify him in the same category as pianist Don Frye (sometimes spelled "Frey" - which makes the pronunciation obvious, I think). Quote
king ubu Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 that's how I'd pronounce it, too - I'd like to know from someone who knows though Quote
paul secor Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 When I've heard Roscoe Mitchell announce the members of the AEC (live and on recording), he's pronounced Don Moye's name as Moy-ay. Quote
Big Beat Steve Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 Aw well, one never knows, do one? Quote
JSngry Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 When I've heard Roscoe Mitchell announce the members of the AEC (live and on recording), he's pronounced Don Moye's name as Moy-ay. This. Quote
Pete C Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 I believe Quincy Jones introduces Patti Bown as "bone" on the Jazz Icons DVD of his big band. I've always heard Moye pronounced two syllables. Quote
Big Beat Steve Posted October 17, 2012 Report Posted October 17, 2012 I've always heard Moye pronounced two syllables. Like Alison Moyet, then? Quote

king ubu Posted October 31, 2012 Report Posted October 31, 2012 Jim Pugh? as in "crew", "Fru", "Brew"? Quote
Big Beat Steve Posted October 31, 2012 Report Posted October 31, 2012 (edited) Jim Pugh? as in "crew", "Fru", "Brew"? Like in "Pew", I'd say. i.e. Like in "Jim PEWter" Or like "Hugh", if you want to stick closer to the spelling, for convenience's sake. Edited October 31, 2012 by Big Beat Steve Quote
BillF Posted October 31, 2012 Report Posted October 31, 2012 Jim Pugh? as in "crew", "Fru", "Brew"? Yes Quote
Big Beat Steve Posted October 31, 2012 Report Posted October 31, 2012 Jim Pugh? as in "crew", "Fru", "Brew"? Yes Really? Everywhere in the anglo-saxon world? Those "Pughs" I've "heard" by their names sounded more like "Pews" or "Hughs", really ... But not like Winnie the Pooh ... Quote
