The Warne Marsh things are nice, as are the two Sal Mosca albums. He has a cd with duets with Rufus Reid that I think is extraordinary (of course I'm a bassist so I would think that wouldn't I?)

The only picture I have is of that kid (Fred Mertz Jr?) in the front row of your 5th grade social studies class in 1960, quaking with fear while raising his hand

to ask you a question. B-)

Wrong again Wheezie. I was in 10th grade in 1960.

10th grade? ....no Pop-Tarts, no Get Smart, no Steppenwolf, No Penthouse Forum, no Coors, no electric golf carts, no Hunter S. Thompson 'Hells Angels'!! Life must have been grim with nuthin to do but smoke Chesterfields and spin that 'Platters Sing All The Movie Hits' record. ^_^

I see that he's on Buddy Rich 'In Miami'.  How's that one?

Geez, it's friggin' Buddy Rich in friggin' Miami.

We can all write our own scenerios.

I've heard that side, Weizen, and contrary to whatever sarcasm you might think Chuck is conveying, that's about as succinct a summation of the music as there is. Even by Buddy's standards, it's hyper.

My scenario includes massive quantities of cocaine, unpaid ex-wifes, gambling debts coming due, and drunks wanting to hear "In The Mood", but I'm afraid I tend towards underestimation.

Oh okay...well that helps a good bit. I don't own a single Buddy Rich LP/Cd and had thought about roadtesting one of his smaller group dates like 'Buddy & Sweets' (I've heard clips at CD Universe and like it) or the 'Miami' one. Since the 'Sweets' one doesn't sound 'hyper' to me......I now know that the Miami one is an entirely different ball of wax and it's probably one I don't want to go for, yes?

...it's probably one I don't want to go for, yes?

That's a question where yes means no, no means yes, and maybe means nothing!

You've been around them freakin' politicians too long, dude. :g:g:g
