HutchFan Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) 1 hour ago, rostasi said: This album reminds me of a story. All through high school and college, I worked construction jobs -- both after school and full-time during the summers. One summer, I was working on framing crew building houses. Someone would always bring a "boom box" to the jobs, and we'd usually listen to the radio while working throughout the day. Occasionally, someone would bring a cassette tape and we'd listen to that. One day, someone popped in a country music cassette. Nothing unusual there. But I quickly noticed something that was unusual: The words coming from the boom box were incredibly raunchy. I don't mean double-entendre type raunchy, like the album pictured above. I mean full-on pornographic raunchy. No details spared. . . . I didn't know that such a thing even existed! Turns out that it was an album by David Allan Coe. Along with his "regular" country music, I guess he had a side-hustle as "porno-country" musician. Odder than odd. Yikes!!! One of the many things that I learned as a teenager/young adult working on construction sites. My apologies if I've already told this story here. I'm getting old(er), so I guess it's inevitable that I often repeat myself. Edited August 4, 2023 by HutchFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) Jack Teagarden “Mis’ry and the Blues” Verve cd World weary near the end of his life performance from Jackson. . . . I love the work Mr. T did early and late and it’s too bad we lost him when we did–we could have had a few more decades perhaps. This cd sounds best with “Phase” inverted to me.

BillF Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) Mel Lewis discusses the history of jazz drums with Loren Schoenberg (1987). Part 16: Max Roach Amazing to hear Mel talking about the first time he saw Max and Charlie Parker - in Buffalo in 1945 - and how he (aged 16) and Frankie Dunlop stood in front of the drumkit, listening. Similarly his memories of being at the Birth of the Cool band's gig at the Royal Roost in 1948. Edited August 5, 2023 by BillF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that this is my favourite Teagarden. At least this is the one that I fell in love with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazzbo Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 It's really good. I love his singing here, and his trombone solos are strong. I truly love Jack's work as a sideman in the 'twenties through the 'forties. I like the Big Band material but don't listen to it often, but the Verve and Roulette at the end of his life are really wonderful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabshakeh Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 Listening out of interest only, really, although the truth is that this record is not that bad. Certainly better than the studio albums. Catchy, in sections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to find "bad" recordings by the master. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jazzbo Posted August 5, 2023 Report Share Posted August 5, 2023 Blossom Dearie “Blossom Time at Ronnie Scott’s” Fontana/Universal Japan SHM-CD Sounds much nicer than the earlier cd version I have of this one. I love one of the introductions here. “My mother doesn’t know that I’m out late and singing in nightclubs. . . she thinks I’m still in jail.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
