Don Patterson is among my top five favourite organists. Never heard a bad recording of his. I always found him the closest to Horace Silver of all organists, especially as a composer. I think he inspired Sonny Stitt to some of his best playing. B-3er, what do you think of the take on The Good Life on the Muse LP with Richie Cole?

Yeah, that's really cool and radically democratic! This is it: Ask the people instead of deciding over their heads!"

I hung around at the All About Jazz Forum for a few days, probably will continue, but I just voted for this forum as the prime successor to the Blue Note Bulletin Board. I'll try to lure as many people over here as possible. I requested an Audio Talk department a scant 12 hours ago, and there you are: this is board maintenance. The longer I think about it, the angrier I get: It is their board ... would be nothing without us posters. No creative input into the board by the Blue note people themselves ... okay, they have work to do, but they could have cared just a little more. Just to remove that stuff without warning is to destroy an enormous wealth of valuable information. Thanks a thousand times, welcome at the new home.

The only thing missing is a type of "Audio Talk". Maybe we title it "Jazz Engineering" and try to lure Jim Anderson over here ...

Great Job! Now let's see which is going to be our safety copy, this or All About Jazz ..... All a-board here as well: our gateway to the world of real music ..... B)
