  1. Is this a different take of Cliff Walk than the one on Newport Rebels? I am confused also! Is there something new with Booker Little on it?
  2. We were casually acquainted. What I wanted to ask is what this Lee Morgan thing is that is mentioned in the New Yorker article.
  3. Ran into the Detective at Blues Alley last night and got a glacial reception. He must be seeing my social media posts.
  4. This tune was on the lost Atlantic session. However, the issued release was made from a transfer of the original tape and the tune got missed.
  5. Did anyone get this? It shows as sold out from the label, and neither Amazon nor Deepdiscount have it. Where else can I get it? t?
  6. Can the entire concert with Abbey and Clifford Jordan be seen somewhere?
  7. The tracks with Winston will be weak, but 6 tracks with Grimes is worth the cost. Amazing how his discography quintupled in size!
  8. Agreed! Plus the Love Supreme Vamp.
  9. I will try to get a Fats tribute concert together in DC as part of the Lee Morgan Festival I am organizing. I already have a Woody Shaw concert scheduled for 10/15, and three of Lee's music on 10/14, 10/22 and 11/19.
  10. I started the process on Facebook. Let's see where this goes...
  11. Not holding my breath on the corrected version. I wonder if I can get the word out to Mickey's family.

    Dug this up after hearing Theme for Erney. It was Bootsie Barnes who told me about this Tyner record. I wish I had asked McCoy. I wonder now if it really existed. How can we find out? I will start with Facebook.
  13. I had the same thought. I won't ask Wayne's widow if she knows about it...
  14. This was not one of the choices, but my favorite era is 1965, after Love Supreme and up to the quartet's last date.
  15. I had contributed to the campaign many years ago and my understanding was that there would be a DVD. I am sure that was abandoned. Is that a violation of the kickstarter/gofundme? I don't have a prime account. I know there is a 30-day free trial but with everything going on in my life right now, I am not ready to start a trial and be mindful of the 30-day deadline. I am not sure when I will have time to watch it. I only contributed under the assumption I was paying for a DVD.
  16. If a DC showing is scheduled, it would be nice to organize a concert.
  17. Odd that the track is listed as Take Twelve here.
  18. And 20 years later, the Alderson tapes were found and are being released. A Bob Dylan scholar found them apparently at NYPL?
  19. Another party needs to be paid, yes. Would Kenny Barron remember? It was his first and possibly only gig with Stitt.
  20. In the NPR feature, the fact that other saxophonists sat in with Stitt at various Left Bank shows is mentioned, which is interesting. I was told of a DC sax player who sat in. It was certainly much later than 1973 but I will ask him.
  21. 99% sure it was Fields but not 100% sure because of that 'last year' thing. If Jim sees a musical common point, that is very strong evidence. I trust his ears. Two more angles to pursue: 1) This is not the full concert. The announcement at the end of CD2 corresponds to the first set since he says 'we will be back'. If the second set announcement exists, it will mention the guest. This is exactly why these tapes should be in an archive for researchers and not at the mercy of record producers to chop up and resequence. 2) Fowler told me the Stitt/Thompson was recorded but he did not know where the tape was. If it ever surfaces, we will know if Fields is on it. Give me two hours in that basement...
  22. Bad news - the tape at Schomburg was written over...
