Christiern Posted January 10, 2009 Report Posted January 10, 2009 (edited) This thread picks up where the original I came across... ends. Thank you, Valerie B., for the suggestion.

Christiern Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Posted January 11, 2009 It's Saturday night and I ain't got no money... so I thought I'd squeeze this perhaps not so odd trio in here... Beat Generation renaissance man William S. Burroughs flanked by Rono Tse and Michael Franti (The Disposable Heroes of Hiphoprisy). (Nelson Lyon) The photo is from 1993 when Tse and Franti worked with Burroughs (then 73) on an album entitled Spare Ass Annie and other Tales. Quote
Christiern Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Posted January 11, 2009 I should really be interpreting and translating some 200 year old tax ledgers from St. Croix, but let me first drop a few more PR glossies on you.. I'll start with Rodney Jones, a Mac user who used to live in my building. Rodney Jones - 1999 (Clay Patrick McBride) Nana Vasconcelos (Antilles Records) Max Roach (Columbia) Eric Reed (Tar) Teri Thornton (Kwaku Alston) Am I overdoing it with these photos? I have so many, it seems a shame not to share them. Quote

Max Roach (Columbia) I wouldn't want this guy looking over MY tax returns, Chris. Downright DANGEROUS! MG Quote
sidewinder Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 Oh for the days when the likes of RCA Novus were publicising great jazz artists such as Hilton. Now there's one guy who's very much missed on the scene. Great stuff, keep 'em coming Chris Quote

Aggie87 Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 I do have one comment. I've really enjoyed Chris' archives, but for me they're limited to the actual personal items - photographs, letters, tickets & flyers, etc. Things that are of significance because they show some sort of insight into either him or the artists. Promotional photos are sort of different to my thinking. While the images are nice, I don't understand the value in posting them as much as the other stuff. I"m not sure how much storage space Jim has available to him, and maybe it's no big deal really, but I'd vote to drop the promo photos if server storage space is any sort of problem. Quote
rockefeller center Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 I"m not sure how much storage space Jim has available to him, and maybe it's no big deal really, but I'd vote to drop the promo photos if server storage space is any sort of problem. Don't worry, the images are stored on photobucket.com. Quote
Christiern Posted January 11, 2009 Author Report Posted January 11, 2009 (edited) Thanks, Aggie, I understand your concern, but I looked into it and was told that—as RC points out—doing this via an outside storage site makes it conscionable, so to speak. As for the personal aspect, I thought my fellow O members might have grown tired of my self-indulgence. I will, however, continue (in moderation) to pop in the occasional personal item. In the meantime, I sense that some members enjoy looking at these PR photos. I should say that, among the ones I am skipping right now are a lot of artists who were but flashes in the pan of an indiscriminate record industry. Perhaps I'll do something with that, later on. As we were... Fats Waller's personal manager, Ed Kirkeby at a 1943 WNEW tribute (WNEW) Irene Reid (Glades) Paramount bandleader/pianist Junie C. Cobb and his mid-century vocalist, Annabelle Calhoun (personal collection) Carlos Santana (Columbia Records) Bill Russell leans on Phil Spector (A&M) Jack DeJohnette and Lester Bowie (Richard Laird) Nicholas Payton, Roy Hargrove and Wynton Marsalis at a Payton session in NYC (Jimmy Katz) Donald Byrd (Landmark) Edited January 11, 2009 by Christiern Quote
Noj Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 I've been copying all these photos to a folder and using it as my screen saver. Thanks for posting them, Christiern! Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 Irene Reid (Glades) My FAVOURITE singer! And that photo is so right! Thanks Chris. MG Quote
Harold_Z Posted January 11, 2009 Report Posted January 11, 2009 (edited) John Thomas, Rozelle Claxton and Lawrence Dixon 1961* (Steve Schapiro) From the Franz Jackson date iirc. Nice record! Edited January 11, 2009 by Harold_Z Quote
