couw Posted February 21, 2004 Report Share Posted February 21, 2004 You will be getting a variation on the purple. The black and blue was an early experiment. I have been trying to upload a "corrected" avatar for a while but the system rejects it. Not sure what the problem is. maybe it's too big. Like attached files must be <100Kb, avatars must be <40Kb (used to be <20Kb) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Nessa Posted February 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2004 (edited) Went into the file and changed it from CMYK to RGB. That made the bb happy. Edited February 21, 2004 by Chuck Nessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Alfredson Posted February 23, 2004 Report Share Posted February 23, 2004 I saw the artwork for this last night at the gig. It looks beautiful with some great liner notes by Lawrence Kart and Jim Sangry. I can't wait to hear the music!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upright Bill Posted February 27, 2004 Report Share Posted February 27, 2004 See YOU at 7 (that's a.m. on your f.m.). I used to have to be in Grand Rapids every Saturday morning at 8:00 am and was able to catch your show on the way there and Marion MacPartland on the way back home. I don't miss the 1.5 hour round trip for an hour session but I do miss my time with you and Marion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Nessa Posted February 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 29, 2004 Thanks for mentioning the site - I had not seen it. The updated discography is nice to see. I went to print it out and discovered it was 149 pages! They got my information "more right" than previous listings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clunky Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 I was particulary interested to read that VSOP might be releasing further Warne material that hasn't been released previously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Nessa Posted March 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Long rumored unissued Mode session with Rolf Ericson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catesta Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 I like Rolf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted March 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 More thorough info on the supposed Mode date. Ronnie Ball was the leader. Warne, Rolf, Don Overberg, Red Mitchell and Stan Levey complete the band. Late '57 recording date. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clunky Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Yet more spectulation I know but isn't it fun. A recent Jazzreview (UK) mentioned that Lee Konitz had posession of tapes of Warne and Lee from the late 1970's that he (Konitz) was considering releasing. Again sounds interesting but may be just wishful thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope those aren't the recordings of the live Konitz / Marsh / Raney dates I made for Gerry Teekens (who later founded Criss Cross Records) in the 1970s; they turned out to be an absolute mess...

J.A.W. Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 Correction: if memory serves one date was with Dave Cliff on guitar instead of Raney. Both dates had Peter Ind on bass and Alan Levitt on drums. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly what Gerry told me back in 1981. What was the problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.A.W. Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 (edited) My inexperience, and the fact that the mixing console that was used for the Sennheiser microphones wasn't working properly, as we later discovered; I still don't understand what exactly happened, since the listening tests were all fine and my Revox A700 recorder was OK. A pity things went so terribly wrong, since the music was incredible... Gerry and I haven't been on speaking terms since it happened; I hope he destroyed the tapes. It was quite embarrassing, and I understand Lee was very mad at me when he heard the results. If he reads this (you never know), I hope he'll accept my apologies. Edited March 1, 2004 by J.A.W.

Chuck Nessa Posted March 1, 2004 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 I thought it might have been personality conflicts. In 1982 I put together a band for the Chicago Jazz Festival that included Warne, Lou Levy and Jimmy Raney. You could feel the draft from Raney. I remember Lou asking Warne about it. They also played at the Jazz Showcase that week and Raney pretty much stayed by himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might indeed have been a clash of personalities, I don't know. Anyway, there was something wrong with the sound of the band (though, like I said, the music was incredible), and that may have contributed to the recordings not sounding as they should have. Fact remains, though, that the faulty mixing console was the main culprit. Edited March 1, 2004 by J.A.W. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.A.W. Posted March 1, 2004 Report Share Posted March 1, 2004 (edited) I remember Gerry Teekens telling me (before the recording sessions, that is) that it had always been one of his dreams to put together a band with Konitz, Marsh, and Raney. Peter Ind helped him organize the band, but, like I said, Raney didn't fit in. Nevertheless, they made great music, which was quite amazing given those circumstances. Edited March 1, 2004 by J.A.W.
