Yes, Pablo was mostly conservative but a lot of other labels were recording the less conservative jazz. And Pablo did release the John Coltrane European concerts and Afro-Blue albums. It's also where MaryLou Williams and Cecil Taylor embraced. And that was the label that had albums like Roy Eldridge's 'What's It's All About', Sonny Criss' 'Intermission Riff' to mention just two. Not to forget the Lester Young in Washington series. And where jazz greats like Basie, Benny Carter, Zoot Sims, Joe Pass and many more were home.

b3er, I have Netscape Navigator. When I hit 'My Profile', all I get is the top of the page (down to the 'Your Control Panel line'), then it's all blank until the 'Forum home' part.

I've got problems with the new software. When I try to view some posts, all I get is the top of the page (down to the 'Add Reply/New Topic/New Poll' level). It's all blank beneath down to the 'Forum home' line where the bottom rest of the page reappears. This happens on quite a number of threads. I manage - sometime but not always - to get into the thread by going thru the 'Add Reply'. Also I could not get into my profile to add a location to my signature. Anybody else has these problems?

Richard Davis (with Joe Beck and Jack de Johnette) recorded 'Song For Wounded Knee' for Flying Dutchman after the 1973 occupation of the massacre site.

The studio version of 'Alabama' was on the Coltrane Impulse album 'Live at Birdland'.

Oliver Nelson's album for Impulse 'The Kennedy Dream' which was composed and recorded after the 1963 assassination of JFK.

Is it just my imagination or is the Board software slower than the previous one?

Gave it a spin. The music is fine but it is mostly jazzy movie music. Dave Burns is heard mainly on the opening track which clocks in at just over 5 minutes. The other tracks are all around or under 3 minutes. George Coleman has a lead role on the album. He plays alto. Charles Davis on tenor is barely heard. Mal Waldron also keeps his part discreet. Good opportunity to listen to drummer Al Dreares who appeared on albums by the likes of Randy Weston, Freddie Redd and Jackie McLean.

Is this like the DEFINITIVE label? 'Definitive' is pretty similar to 'Past Perfect'. Definitive come from Spain, Past Perfect from Gemany. Definitive look better. Past Perfect are cheaper.

Jazzkrow, reading your e-mails. You're not getting mines. Give me a non-Organissimo e-mail adress.

No need to flip out. Use3D is playing tricks on all of us. Hope he is having fun!

This came out in 1967 (Impulse 9141). Good album. Never got to see the movie. Charles McPherson ghosted for Dick Gregory who played the Parker-inspired hero of the film. Mal Waldron wrote the score for the film which includes a sequence where McPherson appears in a nightclub scene with Dave Burns, Chick Corea, Steve Swallow and Al Dreares (according to the book 'Jazz in the Movies' by David Meeker.

Nothing silly about that one. The lady was beautiful. She appeared in Playboy magazine back in my highschool days. Think the album photo was shot by Bunny Yeager, Though this was very far away off from my mind at the time, the album girl did wonder to help ease my prostate problems to be. I have a copy of this Marty Paich among my albums now.

Couple more: Kenny Dorham/Ernie Henry 'Two Horns Two Rhythms' on Riverside Tony Scott 'Scott's Fling' a 1955 RCA piano/guitarless session.

Thanks Chuck. I respect this too. Now what about that other recording session (for United Artists?)? This was documented in Down Beat (wish I could dig up the copy) but never materialized as an album.

Saw 'Dingo' when this film was released. Thought it was embarassing to see Miles involved in this. 'Dingo' is in my ten-worst ever film list (and it's crowded there).

Jimmy Giuffre's Capitol album 'Tangents in Jazz' fits the bill.

Know only too well that we'll never hear that BN one! Let's try to get the others out of wherever they are!

Ubu, yes I remember seeing a different Monk discography site but it looks like it went down. Well, we needn't!

Not as detailed as the 'Miles Ahead' site but a pretty good job is this site http://www.jazzdisco.org/monk-dis/c/ If you need a more detailed list, you will have to purchase the Chris Sheridan bio/discography 'Brilliant Corners' from Greenwood.

Bertrand, volume 2 is listed (with all the tunes) in the Lord book. It was recorded on July 19, 1956.

I am currently finishing a long and mostly happy career with an international news agency. Will be reaching retirement age and will have completed a 40-year stint there at the end of 2004. As the person in charge of photo operations in France and North Africa, I have been on all kinds of assignments around the world. A sample listing would include Olympic Games (most of them since the 1972 Munich Olympics), world soccer/cycling/track and field championships, Pope trips, riots, revolutions, wars, airplane hijackings, conferences, royal crownings, weddings, funerals (from de Gaulle to Diana with people like Franco, Grace, Sartre and many others in between), mine disasters, floods, film festivals. Everything. And I loved doing this (still do) even the unglamorous ones which usually are the most difficult. Was involved in jazz activities before I started that career but had to curtail the jazz bit when I got more and more responsibilities with my job. Planning on busy retirement years with lots of jazz to keep the spirit alive.
