SEK Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 These days, I listen most often to Roscoe, but I have more recordings with Mitch Mitchell. However, Joni got my vote, because I really dug her early records ("Song To A Seagull" through "For The Roses") as they appeared, and those records still move me (nostalgia mostly, I suppose...), and the woman was and is fine.

Dan Gould Posted May 7, 2005 Report Share Posted May 7, 2005 Blue is my vote, but I hope Billy Mitchell gets a few, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Fitzgerald Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 Man, Billy Mitchell is just a punk with none of the charisma of Phil or Grant. And hey, what about Sam and Peggy or Jamie? Yes, EastEnders hits in 2 hours here. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 Lots of great Mitchells on that list. I'd go with Mitch though for me. A drumming influence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free For All Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 (edited) I'll vote for Billy Mitchell just 'cause I think he might not get a lot of votes. When I first joined Woody's band in 1984 we went to Europe (my first trip overseas) and took with us Billy Mitchell, Bill Perkins, Sal Nistico and Zoot Sims . Billy was a last-minute sub for someone else- he did play with the Herd, but was not as well known as the others (as far as history with the band). At the time I was fairly naive as to how heavy these guys were- by the end of the trip I was EDUCATED! The cats was BLOWNIN'!! ..and I do like Joni Mitchell, I'm not afraid to say it!

Billy Mitchell ts (Barry Harris p, Sam Jones b, Walter Bolden d) Thanks for the heads-up on this, marcello. They have it available for download on eMusic, so I'll be putting that in my "Save for later" file, PRONTO! B-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Nessa Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Didn't vote 'cause of my obvious "conflict". If he had been listed, I might have voted for George Mitchell (for historical reasons). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
