    Funny Rat

    Funny Rat is an equal opportunity thread. I have to admit, I have never listened to Jelly Roll. does he sound like Herr Broetzmann? Well, I got his RCA 5CD set when it hit the running low list on the Trueblue site. I think it's still there, if not, it has been there for years - I got mine years ago... and haven't listened yet through it all. That Classics I got for 5$ at a used shop, but it's new. Had to go for it. There's some funny kazoo, and - more important - some pretty cool solo piano sides, of course all in awful sound, but very interesting, and often rhythmically daring, to say the least! Now listening to the Rivers LP "Streams" (not mine, hélas!) ubu
  2. One more, same site (source) ubu
  3. I have no idea. I found it on the net without any information. http://www.jazzvisionsphotos.com/contact/rahsaan.htm Photo is taken by Michael Wilderman, but not dated. That japanese site mentions the photographer, too. Here's another one, undated: (source) And one more: (source) ubu

    Listening now to: Jelly Roll Morton Classics 1923-1924 oooooops, wrong thread
  5. I wouldn't give too much on these Newsound releases! I've got a Miles disc, and it has one track, "Mr. Lucky", listed as being from the fall '60 European tour (with Stitt, Kelly, Chambers, Cobb), but once it starts, there's a baritone sax and no tenor, and you soon suspect that this is the Donald Byrd/Pepper Adams band (no proof, however). The "Live in Seattle" set is incredible, in my opinion! Love every minute of it (but ought to spin it far more often)! And definitively get the CD, as it has lots of material not on the LP set. ubu
  6. Kirk in Cologne, © Karlheinz Klüter, http://www.jazzphotography.us Nice thread, Evan! (uh, sorry, Bright Moments! Here's the "Bright Moments Thread" - why not rename it?) ubu

  9. You got it! And we also have nice ministers wisely leading our Nation's fate: (where's that puking smiley if I need it?) ubu
  10. Gary, wish you a good one, and many happy returns! Flurin
  11. Makes sense indeed! Yes, and the cuckoo clocks are as german as were the guys who started the whole dada thing (Ball, Arp, Huelsenbeck, to name a few)... And as you know it's not Switzerland where clocks are late, but it's Germany (look at the Deutsche Bahn, for instance, or at the Schröder guy's plans for reforms...) ubu
  12. Both Raney's are available on Amazon France (I just got them from there): http://www.amazon.fr/exec/obidos/search-ha...9158293-1136262 Wilen's still there, too: http://www.amazon.fr/exec/obidos/ASIN/B000...9158293-1136262 A few others might still be aroun on Amazon France, but you better grab them now! ubu Well, the Raney link won't work. Do a search for "Raney Paris" or "Raney Visits Paris" and you'll be there. ubu

    Ubu, it's (almost) all there. http://www.shef.ac.uk/misc/rec/ps/efi/mtaylors.html Have the whole of Akisakila on vinyl but you can trace what is not on that vol. 2 you got on that site. Thanks, brownie! Somehow I keep forgetting that site! And now you mention it, there's even a second CT discography online, somewhere... lazy me -_- Listened to this one while having dinner (obviously without Ms. ubu ): And yes, for me it clearly is Will have to listen some more, but I like it a lot! Now half way through: Some beautiful stuff on it! That Tribute to Lester is really moving! ubu
  15. So the best we can hope for is a Legacy-like programme? That would be far better than anything that BMG/RCA/Bluebird has on offer at the moment!
  16. There's a difference? Not sure. They at least have those digipacks, and some new ones from time to time (well, only if you like Dave Douglas, I guess). Bluebird = RCA = BMG AFAIK Yep, I would say so, too. And I'm not very fond of the Mohns... they tend to mess things up. What did they do in WWII, by the way?

  18. I hope we'll see something like the series I put the list together of, but I guess we won't... BMG are maybe the most moronic among the big ones, as far as marketing and reissuing jazz goes... well, except for Bluebird! ubu
  19. indeed!
  20. Listening to the disc right now! Wow! Will have to listen a few more times, for sure, and soon, too! Love what I heard so far. Thanks, everybody! Btw: shipping is incredibly fast! Ordered it a day after I made my last post above, and got it today, already! ubu

    Me again B) Just picked up used copies of CT's Akisakila Vol. 2 and One Too Many Salty Swift... for less than 15$! Nice find, I think! Can someone help me with the contents of Akisakila 1? I guess it's OOP, right? Or at least pretty hard to find. ubu
  22. Like it a lot! Had a soft spot for it since I first got it. And the tambourine man doesn't get in the way at all. Isnt't he the one also on Ike Quebecs Soul Samba? ubu
  23. The Capitol trios is a good one. I don't know the RCA one, though. The real meat though, must be the early RCA trios/quartet (but I'm sure you have them, yes? Nice 3CD set, out for quite some time) ubu
