Teasing the Korean's Achievements

  1. Thanks. Joseph's bio on the Space-Age Pop pages doesn't reference Jackie Paris, hence my question. They usually know this stuff!
  2. The Fresh Sounds blurb for their reissue of Jackie Paris Sings the Lyrics of Ira Gershwin indicates that it was arranged by pianist Irving Joseph. Is this the same Irving Joseph who recorded the amazing Murder, Inc. for Time Records?
  3. When the economy comes roaring back in a couple of weeks, the sky's the limit!
  4. I compare him to Raymond Scott, and I'm willing to bet that "Epistrophy" was inspired by "Powerhouse."
  5. I'm about 19 years late to the party. A friend of mine was telling me about this cat. Where should I start?
  6. I would love that. There must be other jazz albums from that period, like Monk's Greatest Hits, with liner notes that were self-consciously trying to appeal to 60s youth culture.
  7. 😆 It's not a very good album, even by sunshine pop standards, but I had to keep it for the liner notes. Kind of like with the Monk Greatest Hits.
  8. Late-'60s liner notes are often ridiculous, and lines from many of them have stuck in my mind over the decades. For example, a line from the Love Generation's debut on Imperial, in which they discuss an impromptu party with "7-Up, pressed ham sandwiches, and flowers flowing freely."
  9. Sounds like the Columbia Greatest Hits.
  10. Happy Holidays form Sauter Finegan. I don't think I've ever seen any footage of them before, and I'm not sure that I ever bothered to search, either.
  11. I often think about musical paths that were largely unexplored. Hearing this video makes me wonder if a subgenre of "rock" versions of jazz tunes could have evolved. I don't mean like fusion, but simply playing jazz tunes with a more or less rock/R&B approach. I'm sure there are examples of this kind of thing sprinkled over the decades, but still. (I realize that the NRBQ players have at least some jazz cred.)
  12. You can download the tracks as Wav files from the InterTubes. That said, $8.49 for a rare 10" album in lossless format is a great deal. $6.99 for mp3 files is not necessarily a good deal.
  13. I'll check it out. I also have this train compilation from Ace Records: https://acerecords.co.uk/all-aboard-train-tracks-calling-at-all-musical-stations
