  1. I would add: some of us are hardly lacking for MULTIPLE COPIES of the same Coltrane material
  2. The 86 CD box set would exceed the 83 CD (bootleg) collection of the Beatles Complete Get Back Sessions.
  3. For those who have not seen the documentary, Miles Davis soundtrack
  4. Other people have quickly written songs for Minneapolis. Here is Billy Bragg's: https://www.undertheradarmag.com/news/billy_bragg_shares_new_protest_song_for_minneapolis_city_of_heroes
  5. RIP, I still remember when I first heard Oregon's album Distant Hills.
  6. Always great to see a lady explaining and admiring A Love Supreme (she blows a kiss at the end)
  7. Some cumbia: the classic "Elsa" (for those who are tired of the Fania roster)
  8. The USPS is releasing a Muhammad Ali stamp. (Yes, I still use USPS stamps.) https://store.usps.com/store/product/muhammad-ali-stamps-S_487604
  9. Anyone know whether the second edition of the Coltrane Reference will be published before the centenary of Coltrane’s birth (September 2026)?
  10. The total rehab of the home is complete: https://www.theguardian.com/music/2026/jan/04/nina-simone-childhood-home-north-carolina
  11. I have bought EPs (7-inch vinyls) directly from band members, but not because I collect EPs – instead, it’s just a small way to support the band.
  12. I also do not have a turntable anymore, but I still keep the first vinyl i ever bought (at age 11), and I keep it for no reason.
  13. Something similar is in the book Time Will Tell: Conversations with Paul Bley, by Norman Meehan, Berkeley Hills Books, 2003 https://jazztimes.com/archives/conversations-with-paul-bley/

    I remember receiving those NMDS catalogs in the mail and reading them from cover to cover.
  15. If you want to hear some "liturgical jazz," there is Mary Lou Williams' Black Christ of the Andes. Below is a link to Gayle Murchison's study of the piece and a link to "St Martin de Porres" https://tools.bard.edu/wwwmedia/fisher-files/Murchison Mary Lou Williams.pdf
  16. El Combo de Ayer:
  17. Funeral for Salsa legend Rafael Ithier:
  18. Not the only president that Gene Simmons has visited. In 2012, he and his beautiful wife were in Peru, and they visited the Peruvian President Ollanta Humala. You can see part of the visit in the video below (in Spanish). Today, Humala is in jail in Peru.
  19. Daily musical engagement correlates with a marked reduction in dementia incidence. https://limelight-arts.com.au/news/listening-to-music-after-70-linked-to-sharp-drop-in-dementia-risk-australian-study-finds/

  21. Jeffrey Shurtleff - State Farm https://archive.org/details/lp_state-farm_jeffrey-shurtleff
  22. Yep, the original Woodstock album has three LPs. Some of the recordings on the original Woodstock album were not recorded at the Woodstock festival, but that's another discussion.
