Jazz Kat

Thanks everybody! I'm taking it easy today, I guess. Listening to Ron Carter's All Blues album, then playing a duet with my bass player for my family, then jamming with one of the best guitarists in New York. Catcha later! And thanks again for the birthday wishes!

Oh. Tunes recorded a while back, but not released?

If this guy merits such a comment, I'd hate to read what you wrote after Miles Davis passed away... Guy I get it now.

Did you go to the Bunny Ranch??

Ron Carter: All Blues Stanley Turrentine: The Sugar Man Miles Davis: Miles Smiles Kenny Burrell: Blues-The Commond Ground Round Midnight Ramsey Lewis Trio: Stretchin Out Gerry Mulligan/Chet Baker: Carnegie Hall Concert Pat Martino: Exit Ramsey Lewis: Dancing In The Street Craig Hundley Trio & Orchestra: Plays with the Big Boys All vinyl!

Just purchased Turrentine's The Sugar Man. Was wondering if this is a compilation. And the second song on side one is The Stretch, but I hear a rhodes, and there is no piano player listed for this track. Just an organist, and I don't hear an organ. Anybody know?

Wouldn't know.

Could someone fill me in. What does Boots Randolph have to do with gay people and bigots?

I'm seeing Martino in PA next week. Was wondering if any knew who is in his current quartet?

What was he really like?

Oh shit, I know this song now! Damn. You can't blame a guy for trying to make a living.

Same here. Fireworks before and after.

I really love Kenny Burrell. First of all, he's got the best tone in jazz guitar history. (IMO) Plus his albums were very consisted. (I can't stand some of his newer stuff) They were usually a mix of familiar tunes, and nice originals. I came across some good Burrell cuts recently. Among them they were Groovin High and Moon & Sand. However, this one stands out.

My local vinyl shop has recently had a bunch of Mastersounds lp's for 8 dollars each. For some reason, I thought Wes was a part of this group, but anyway, it's just as good. I picked up Ballads and Blues. I never heard an electric bassist play so clean! I never heard Buddy and Monk before and I heard about the group so I bought it. It was pretty good. Any other fans out there?

The auction has ended for this one, but perhaps I might look for it, the next time I shop for wax, which should be soon. Does he play the rhodes on this one?

Thanks, I'll go check it out right now.

This might be a bad place to mention, I don't like saxophonists that much.

I've been on a Walton kick lately too. I first really got into him after listening to a Milt Jackson double album, live on Pablo records with Ray Brown and Billy Higgins. I was wondering if there are any other recordings of him playing the rhodes.

Chose In Walked Bud. But then I realized it's actually Bye Ya.

Haha! It's 2:22 and I'm still watching them. Last one's on at 4 am. See if I make it.

Best part about 4th of July. Twilight Zone marathon.

Yeah, I'm pretty happy too. Just graduated high school. Got no job, no car, no girl. But it's still great! Listening to music, and watching Twilight Zones. What more can you ask for?!?! Damn, I know I'm gonna have to get a job soon.

At the Jazz Record Center the other day: Kenny Burrell: Tin Tin Deo Moon And Sand Gerry Mulligan: Age Of Steam Gerry Niewood: Timepiece Bill Evans: The Bill Evans Album Since We Met John Scofield: Live The Jazztet: With John Lewis Joe Henderson: Power To The People Ron Carter: Dear Miles Pete Christlieb Quartet: At Dontes Paul Desmond: From The Hot Afternoon George Shearing & The Montgomery Brothers I also picked up Joe Locke, Revelation at Barnes and Noble.

I saw Redd a few weeks ago at the Jazz Kitchen in Indy. The show was a blast and he's a great guy. I got some really nice photos and then my kazillion dollar camera expired on me....but the show was cool. m~ ps, the camera has been repaired! That's really cool.
