Gene Ammons DB Article?

Never knew about this...is it an actual interview, or what?

[Chuck Nessa]

If I have time, I will check my stacks. Dang.

 

[Rooster_Ties]

It's an actual interview, almost three pages. I can probably scan at work this week, but not sure if I can upload pdf's to the forum.

[Rooster_Ties]

OK, I think I successfully scanned and uploaded the three (3) images of the interview -- since they were too big to upload directly to the Big O board, the whole album of images is here:  http://imgur.com/a/k6zIl

And here they are individually...

Thanks, this is a real service. Much appreciated!

[Big Beat Steve]

A very interesting read. Fills in a few gaps.

Thanks!

[Rooster_Ties]

Are the in-line images showing up for you guys -- meaning visible within the thread?  They were for me shortly after I uploaded them, but after I rebooted my PC here at work over lunch, now they're not.  (I could go back and edit them out, because they're still taking up a huge amount of space -- just not showing -- and I could leave the imgur link to the album.)

This is my first ever attempt uploading images to a hosting site, and then trying to link to them within the board software.

I read the entire interview online here within the Org forum thread - very convenient without going to the link. Leave it the way it is.

same here.

"go off the side of the board" I've never seen this as a musical metaphor, have you?

[JSngry]

As opposed to "straight ahead", I guess?

Doubt that this was a skateboarding/surfing metaphor, so, what...carpentry? The running board of a car? Diving?

It's one of those phrases that I know exactly what it means but have no idea how/why.

Interesting piece.  Still want that Jug box!

Maybe they could package it with a jug of whiskey?

Anyone know his favorite brand?

Moonshine, according to the "Juganthology" cover.

[mikeweil]

A possible sponsor?

Thanks for the post.  Very interesting.  Like the George Freeman reference.

[Chuck Nessa]

as someone with personal experience with Jug, it was good to read this again.

[The Magnificent Goldberg]

Anything you'd care to relate to serious fans, Chuck?

Was Wilburn Campbell part of that Illinois Drug Abuse Program?
