What live music are you going to see tonight?
Ken Dryden replied to mikeweil's topic in Live Shows & Festivals
Turtle Island Quartet in Chattanooga. I enjoyed dinner with the band last night and they have a new CD out in April, Island Prayers, downloads should be out now. -
Several memorable groups recorded for Windham Hill Jazz, the Denny Zeitlin Trio and Turtle Island String Quartet both come to mind. But I've yet to hear any smooth jazz that held my interest, especially Bob James and Kenny G.

Please hold these CDs for me: Koller, Hans Minor Meetings 1958 $8 Koller ,Hans/Bernard Konrad Unit Phonolith $6 HatOLOGY Kenny Wheeler
-
I never knew the depth of Don Schlitten’s background, he will be missed.
-
CDs that you know you have but cannot locate right now ....
Ken Dryden replied to mikeweil's topic in Miscellaneous Music
I run into that from time to time, wondering whether I put the CD other than its assigned spot or if I mixed up the stacks as I shifted CDs around the room after so many new acquisitions. I've got a missing Misha Mengelberg and a Jim McNeely for starters that I need to find. It's not like either CD left the room. Denny Zeitlin's latest CD also turned up missing. -
It was not that Paul Desmond was prevented from using a pianist, he had a special appreciation for Dave Brubeck’s way of playing with him.
-
My show for this Sunday features the music of Turtle Island Quartet and my interview with its founder, violinist and composer David Balakrishnan. I will be happy to share the files with anyone interested.

Horrible rewrite of the book, inventing characters that weren't present and David Niven's character was an American in the Alistair MacLean novel.
-
I am thinking about offering a broadcast every week or so to those interested . I have hundreds of Marian McPartland’s Piano Jazz shows, in addition to other NPR and APR/PRI and other broadcasts. Share your email via pm to obtain the Piano Jazz with Ed Bickert. There is a three day limit to download once you receive it. Maybe others will make similar offers, but I am not expecting anything in return.

Trimming Alan Grant's announcements is always a wise move. He got ridiculously pompous by the time he hosted Four Queens Jazz Night From Las Vegas.
-
LOL!
-
Here's hoping for as complete a box as possible. I am not excited about buying excerpts, only to have a larger set issues a year later.
-
I have buying from philadelphia music for several years and they tend to undergrade. They are terrific!
-
If anyone is interested, I have some digitized live broadcasts of Ken Peplowski that are not commercially issued: Hotel Four Queens, Las Vegas 8/2/1993 Newport Jazz Festival with Evan Christopher and Anat Cohen 8/4/2012

Ted Rosenthal announced Ken’s passing on FB. He will be missed, he had a brilliant career and he was a funny giy.
