He's on some Lawrence Welk reruns, as is Bob Hastings. And if it's not Hucko, it's Henry Quests, who is not Hucko but who is still a good player.

Ah, yes. And yes! But Thad and Elvin. Two players of interest!

That's the one with Teo on tenor, right? Two was an interesting tenor player. Hell, an interesting musician, period.

Damn that's good.

Not about that specifically, that would be kinda rude, hey Joe Henderson thought you sucked. Thoughts? 60 years ago...long time.

Jaejoon Ryu - Symphony 2 New technique - use Pandora to find new stuff then use Spotify to play new records in full.

Hard to imagine it today, but ECM was really an "outsider" label in its earliest days. The availability that NMDS provided them was so crucial to their eventual success.

Ordered their recent release of previously unrecorded Eddie Sauter arrangements for the Red Norvo/Mildred Bailey band. Looking forward to it!

There was a long history with Bley/Mantler and Eicher. Their New Music Distribution Service provided ECM with their first real American outlet, and Eicher never forgot the favor. NMDS was a wonderful thing for so much music and musicians. Check it out: https://insheepsclothinghifi.com/carla-bley-new-music-distribution-service/

That's an interesting record

4 albums by that trio, this one-off chamber album, and some big-band albums. They all show her continued growth,as a composer. And if, like maybe a lot of people (myself included), you sorta stopped paying attention after a certain point, there are plenty of delightful examples that you were wrong for that. Very wrong. Love it when that happens!

Vanished indeed.

That's a really good record.
