  1. 1 Middle, 1 Late, and no matter how long of a gap they put between them, it's still a shock when the later work begins, like it's an altogether different composer. So...the LP affords a listener an opportunity there. No, it forces it!!!
  2. The best way to avoid being remembered is to never get known to begin with....
  3. Bummer. But all the JSQ vinyl I have has been "well-played" or worse. Probably a case of people either dieing or else finally dumping their LPs for CDs. These user-friendly priced box sets can only accelerate that trend! The Carter Quartets are an amazing body of work imo. The JSQ eventually recorded 1-4 when they were still strong (and there's a set of those) and eventually did 5 as well later on when the ensemble was less strong. The only full set that I've heard is by Arditti and it's one of those "whoa...." experiences. Pretty deep and/yet scintillating music.
  4. I'm just glad that you're now in a position to rebuild!
  5. Good suggestions all! My gut is still leaning towards Lee Allen, but I don't think he was in L.A. at this time.
  6. One helluva piece to make a coherent whole out of, but this is more than just coherent. It's virtually cinematic in it's aural flashbacks and episodic thought structures and overall narrative flow.
  7. I don't have the ability to do this. If it's possible. Kevin might and Jim A definitely does.
  8. I have an old handheld unit that I keep in the bathroom. The joke is obvious. But I play a game a day. That joke is obvious to
  9. Surely I am not the only one to enjoy this game?
  10. Such a project could get pretty wonky, because Richard Bock was going in a lot of different ways all at once. But that's what fascinates me about that period, the sheer different paths being taken by the label all at once, from Ravi Shankar to Buddy Rich to The Mariachi Brass to Bud Shank MOR records to The Jazz Corps to Craig Hundley, just everywhere. And then it just all stopped!
  11. This is something that I: A) would never have heard of/known about if this hadn't been released in this series B) would never have bought if not so affordably priced As it is, it's proven to be one of my favorite finds this year. Not the whole thing, mind you, but more than half of it, for sure. Them boys came to play!
  12. I'll put in for the Sony Classical Complete Albums box sets of the last decade or so. Includes both Columbia and RCA Red Seal. Probably not of interest to many here, but for those for whom it is, great music at great prices, Real opportunities to discover some new things.
  13. I thought about that, but I know him strictly as an arranger. This sounds like a real tenor player, with phrasing credentials out the ass.. Maybe he did that too.
  14. No, that's the character Mimi Bobeck.
  15. Mimi Ohio Theatre? Is that a Drew Carey Show reference?
  16. Lee Allen?
  17. Don Wilkerson? Sounds SO familiar...the eas guess is Plas Johnson, but I don't think so.
  18. Santhia deMaythis Peppercorn - My Daddy Kills People For Fun!!! Them Peppercorns has the reputation... Them Peppercorns has the reputation...
  19. Very much. The only "problem" is Leo Wright'd intonation. It's really a problem on the heads. Three horns... But that's the type of thing that I notice but am not necessarily bothered by.
  20. Someday I'd like to see a documentation of the label post-1965, as well as the World Pacific label. But that's another story altogether...
