If I remember correctly, the Emanon sets were very expensive. I think Cadence had at least one of the sets for 80 or 90 dollars, quite a premium for a two disc set.

Five left as of my order this morning.

Hey Jim, I saw Clifford Jordan play around 1979. I had him sign my copy of Glass Bead Games. When I asked him his favorite lp he said The Adventurer, his most current issue at the time. I guess I couldn't argue with that. Both In the World and Reasons in Tonality were cutouts with the no respect price of $1.99 here in RI around that time. Man, I miss cutouts.

Not my favorite but Baird Hersey, a guitarist then based in Boston, did an interesting update of this around 1978, featured Dave Leibman also.

Obscure, In Print Gems In Your Collection
Tom in RI replied to paul secor's topic in Recommendations
A great disc and still in print on the Accurate label is the Consuelo-Jon Quintet cd, Last Sunday Morning. Consuelo Candelaria is the pianist and Jon Hazilla is the drummer. Billy Pierce is well featured on tenor and soprano, Tom Varner plays on the date but his french horn is mostly heard only in ensemble. This date has strong compositions from Candelaria who wrote all the titles except Strayhorn's Johnny Come Lately. As far as I can tell this is one of only two releases that Candelaria appears on. Jon Hazilla is a monster drummer and definitely a TDWR. -
Concord order before xmas?
Tom in RI replied to jazzmusicdepot's topic in Offering and Looking For...
My order from August 11 has not been shipped yet. I have spoken with Jackson the last couple of weeks and he advised me to call him next week if I didn't recieve an email notifacation regarding shipping. So, I'd say Quincy is right on about figuring 4 weeks. -
Larbor Day Sale: Devilin' Tune

Eamil sent. Great review in Cadence for Volume 1. -
Sounds like a great time. Did you get to see George Coleman at the other festival Monday night in Hartford?

Ken (and Fasstrack), I wish I could agree. With me, you are definitely preaching to the choir. However, I don't see any inclination from my kids or their friends that Hi Fi is a desirable thing to them. The young people I know aspire to getting a good computer. When I was a lad (late 60's, early 70's) I and most of my friends looked forward to getting a good stereo. Maybe mosty of us never made it but everybody had at least a few lps (and casettes and 8 tracks). And we got togther after school and listened to music. Now, all the kids want to play video games. I never hear my kids listening to the radio and they don't hit me up for money for cd's (for everything else though). Somehow it seems the music my son likes is generally in connection with his interest in Anime, people post videos online with music that they make as little Anime tributes. I let my son use my stereo when he has friends over but he rarely does, he just keeps his laptop nearby in case he wants to play something for them. Instead of asking for a cd player, he wants an external hard drive. Go figure.

Has Pepper Adams date on Spotlight, Ephemera, ever been out on cd?

I see from Allmusic that Phil Woods' "Live at the Showboat" has been releases on cd just this year, missing 4 cuts though, including one that clocks in at over 20 minutes. Well, a little poking around shows that it was issued a couple of years ago. Amazon shows an import due to be released in August that may have the all the cuts.

Uh...there was one other small problem with the '75 World Series for those of us living in the Northeast.

Tom in RI replied to BERIGAN's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Jim, obviously the human element factors into these guidelines, what I was getting at with the symptoms for two days is that you shouldn't wait for symptoms to become acute before looking for care, which was, I think, something that Berigan referred to. Hey, I advocate getting attention right away, just not firstly at the ER if possible. I am not taking a company line on seeking care, just use common sense (getting advice on when to seek medical attention at a Jazz forum might not qualfy ). Also, if you have a doctor worth his salt, and you describe the symptoms as you did, and he or she doesn't refer you to the ER if they can't see you right away, then, again, you probably should get a new Dr. On a related note, I personally would seek immediate attention if I had a bug bite of unknown origin, particularly if I lived in a Lyme disease endemic area, which I do. I have a 16 year old son who has been unable to attend school for 5 years due to a case of Lyme disease that went undiagnosed for, we believe, about a year. -

Tom in RI replied to BERIGAN's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
I am kind of surprised to see everyone recommend the ER. Don't you folks have an Internist or Family Practice physician you can call. Please don't tell me that those of you with kids don't have Pediatricians either. Care rendered in the ER is pretty much the most expensive setting available. If you have a doctor who cannot see you within a day or two for a sick visit then you should probably switch doctors. Most of the health plans I deal with (I am a group health insurance broker) will deny claims for innappropriate us of the ER, one typical criteria (criterion?) is symptoms for more than 48 hours. -
Thelonoius Monk-Yet Another Historical Issue
Tom in RI replied to Ken Dryden's topic in New Releases
I know Joe Pass found a source of steady dates with Pablo but did this really represent "serious money"? My general understanding is that working jazz mucians make the bulk of their income from live appearances, record dates, and airplay of same, serving more as advirtising than signifacant income. Can record dates with an independent label provide a livable wage? -
I've had fun with a program called MediaFace. Reasonably easy to use, has templates, can paste pictures ect. Good for a nontechnical person such as myself.

Kenny Burrell is also on the Red Prysock Sil Austin record, Battle Royal.
