jo Jones is listed as being on one cut only. Otherwise Nick Stabulas.

BTW It's Bird's only tv appearance but not his only film appearance. There's the film he did for Norman Granz though the music was pre-recorded.

I first heard it by Bing Crosby and the Andrew Sisters.

I just read this in a comment to a post on Richard Williams' "The Blue Moment" blog where he reviewed a new Scott LaFaro collection: "I just wanted say Scott LaFaro lovers should check out the remastered versions of the Village Vanguard recordings and also “Ornette!” and “Free Jazz a collective improvisation” on Werner Uehlinger’s ezz-thetics Revisited series.There is so much more to hear from LaFaro on these. Steve Beresford told me that the audience noise on the Vanguard recordings were added as post hoc sound effects because it was felt the recordings did not sound live enough." Does anyone here know anything about this?

Blue Christmas-- Elvis

Is this possibly true: "Most of the songs included on this forthcoming release, out October 25, have never been heard before and some were not even known to have existed in the first place." ?

Did Steve Turre olay on a sea conch? My friend Ira Nepus, also a trombonist, sometimes does that soloing with big bands.

Orange was the Colour of her Dress then Blue Silk

So the only way to get the entire session including the dialogue on one cd is to buy the Monk box? Actually I've made my own version on one cd burning it from the Miles box and the Modern Jazz Giants cd. I always thought Concord would release one but I guess now it will never happen.

Interestingly it wasn't on the Complete Prestige Miles set. Was that session all on one cd on the Monk set?

Most important to me: do they include the dialogue between Miles and Monk.

"Ear Splitting volume" is my complaint about many shows .

I saw them several times in the last century. Always liked them even after they added electric guitar (my late friend Mike Goodwin who wrote what was probably the first piece about them in a national magazine, felt the addition of the guitar was not a good idea). When and where were they in DTLA? Looks like the space near Bunker Hill.

Is there anything on Directions that's not on any other cd? It was important in its time because of the first Miles with guitar which I don't think anyone knew about.

I had dinner once at Disney Hall before a Kieth Jarrett concert and noticed the actor, Jack Black, at a table near us. I didn't get excited about it until he was joined by his father-in-law: Charlie Haden.

I saw him once carrying his bass across what was then the Warner Brothers/Columbia lot, presumably on his way to a soundtrack recording session.

Maria Schneider, Michael Gibbs, Mike Westbrook. Everything they've done this century. Archie Shepp's "I Hear the Sound". Does 7 or 8 instruments count? If so, Leila Olivesi's "Astral".

On his his substack Will Friedwald makes a pretty convincing argument that the two sides credited to Billy Strayhorn on the cd version of The Jazz Scene are actually by Nat "King" Cole. https://substack.com/home/post/p-147540254?source=queue&autoPlay=false. Curious to hear what others think. (I certainly would have believed that Strayhorn was responsible for "Halfway to Dawn" till I listened to the Cole piece Lewis Porter suggested as a comparison. )

That's terrific. Do those two songs have the same chord structure?

I saw a kid wearing one of these the other day.

Every time I quickly scroll through topics I briefly think it's saying "Any Cat Anderson Experts Here?"

Thanks.

I can't remember the connection between Buckmaster and IFE. What is it?

Great speaker too.
