Thanks Guy and other guys.

It looks like it was the right decision to cancel. Hopefully we'll be back in 2015-2016.

UNH has just cancelled our concert due to weather. I would have thought a foot of snow is no big deal up there.

That won't be an issue, but thanks for the warning.

The more you know, the more you know what you don't know.

Wonderful!

How are the roads?

I remember seeing Bill Hardman on the show.

Happy Birthday Tom!

Nearly blind jazz great. 1/15/15

Shout out to NH/Maine area board members: My quartet will perform at UNH on February 2. The band includes Walt Weiskopf, David Wong and George Fludas.

Wayne Shorter: Joy Ryder

Putting aside a producer's reasons for a fade out, I think there's an artistic justification for a fade out if the composer/arranger hears it that way. It's not a matter of laziness. All the tracks on Wayne Shorter's High Life (except Black Swan) being a good case in point. There ain't nothing lazy about Wayne Shorter's writing on there!

Getting back to the thread topic for a sec, what recordings were played for Sonny on this Blindfold Test?

Wow

A lot of people change their name.

I played a set a few years ago with Lou and Phil Woods. That was nice.

I saw the Basie band directed by Thad at the Henry Street Settlement that year. I don't think he played any of his arrangements. I know he didn't play any of his compositions.

This is what I caught: 3:30-3:36 Sanctuary morphing into 3:36-3:44 Condition Red 9:58 has a bass obstinate used at the beginning of Meridienne A Wood Sylph 20:09-20:40 Mahogany Bird 22:13-(22:20) - almost a touch of Orbits but not really - slowed down like on Alegria 40:05 Delores obviously 41:55-42:19 Swee' Pea 52:47-53:00 Sorcerer
