GA Russell Posted May 21, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 Hi Art Pepper friends and fans. This is Laurie. I had a heart attack last week. I'm getting better, but deliveries of of cds might be a little slower. I'm talking to a musical son-in-law about handling this site in case I'm laid up again. I love digging through this music and knowing there are people out there who love it (almost) as much as I do. L. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Dryden Posted September 5, 2021 Report Share Posted September 5, 2021 From the description of the venue in Laurie’s notes it sounds a lot like Center Stage in Atlanta. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gheorghe Posted November 16, 2022 Report Share Posted November 16, 2022 Maybe I´m oldfashioned I prefer to buy CDs. Just saw the hp with a lot of photos of Art Pepper, some nice, some not, but I also saw the "Stuttgart 1981" which I have, and there is nice liner notes by Laurie , and it´s about the same time when there was the only time I heard him live in Austria. Ask Laurie if she remembers Austria - Velden 1981 where Art´s rhythm section didn´t arrive and he had to play with Stan Getz´ rhythm section (Lou Levy was on piano). That´s were Art played "You´s my heart only" and since I was curios if some recording evidence of it exists, someone her pulled my coat to the Stuttgart album.

I believe only the pianist was missing (believe it was George Cables) and replaced by Lou Levy .... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the pianist ? Maybe, I don´t remember who was on bass and drums. But George Cables ? I believe the scheduled pianist would have been Milcho Leviev, and I had heard that there was a big verbal fight between Art and him and it is very possible that Leviev decided to quit and did let Art "stranded" without a pianist. George Cables leads me to Dexter, who also played in Velden in 1981. Cables had been a long time pianist for Dex, but during that time was replaced by Kirk Leightsey. That´s the two quartets I saw then: Art Pepper with Lou Levy, and Dex with Kirk Leightsey...... About Art Pepper: I´m always astonished how articulated he was on stage, greeting the audience, thanking for applause, announcing the tunes etc, and I think backstage he was really nasty.....
