Hey Dan! I hope you’re well. It’s been a long time! If still available, I’ll take the following: Tina Brooks, Back to the Tracks Jackie McLean, Bluesnik Dexter Gordon, Doin' Allright Dexter Gordon, A Swingin' Affair let me know. Happy new year!

Following!

Was this the actual artwork? Seems to be no longer available 😥

Hey Dan! Great to hear from you. I was back and forth with Felser and can't believe the gang is up to BFT 213!!! Crazy! I miss this place and will try to hang around a bit more often!

Hey everyone--been a long time! Looking for the above title in the XRCD24 edition, if anyone has one they'd like to sell. Drop me a line if so. Many thanks!

Pm sent on schifrin...

PM sent on the Virgin recordings, 11-27.

Or--if you can, as I will--go see Dave Liebman (!) tomorrow night!

I knew about that gig--at Prime Rib, not far from my house. I tried tracking Jymie down when I moved back in 2008, but he'd moved on at that point. Tried contacting his son, and Odean Pope's manager--never got a response. Good luck, please post anything you discover!

Did you get a response?

Just did that last weekend--though I went about 18 hours (started it at 9:45 pm on the big green egg; took about an hour to get it to a steady 230 degrees--and let 'er rip. YUM! Good luck!

Clifford--I'm so excited for you! I've done the cross country journey 3x, with many boxes of lps packed exactly as rod described--twice in summer heat, once in the dead of winter. No problems whatsoever, but one caution: if you're using any professional help along the way, LABEL YOUR BOXES IN CODE. I stupidly did not do this on one move, and have been rebuilding "adderly-Coltrane (Atlantic)" ever since. *friggin idiot* We're in the city 2-3 weekends a month, hit me up when you land.

With all due respect, that's one of the most delusional comments I've heard about this entire sordid disgusting mess. We are just beginning to see what I expect will become a tidal wave of part monday morning quarterbacking (no pun intended) and part "finally feel able to talk" comments about how "Jerry had a problem with boys" and the like. Vindicated? Really? Try "confirmation of the blood on his hands."

Once again, jsngry puts into words the thoughts I have but couldnt express any more competently. Just...really???!!!

Allen--is it a model K? I had a 1920 Steinway upright in Seattle and have been pondering replacing it. Would you be able to shoot me a couple of photos at peterjjohnson "at" gmail.com ? Thanks!

Just bumping this up to see if anyone has heard any recent news about this reissue program. I've been enjoying picking these up, but fear with no news in many months, things are dead in the water. Can someone prove me wrong?

Yob!

Well played, Mitt!

Damn man, just a little more notice next time! The apartment is 2 blocks from fat cat and we were up last night. Check you in six weeks!

Rod--what program do you use to steam from iTunes? I use audio galaxy, which is pretty cool--but would love an alternative. I agree--I stream from iTunes to my dock at work--the whole damn thing on shuffle unless I'm jonesing to listen to a specific record in full. Love it.

Indeed. There's a discussion about a film from Ronnie Scott's, then GG jr says "there is actually one more video out there of my old man playing. And I know where it is. [laughs] A friend of mine has it in Cleveland. And it's the funky era, like 1973 or '74." There's a little more discussion about "bringing it out"--do you want more?

I'll check tomorrow. Cheers!

Terrific info, bebop--thanks! I'd seen the motley listing and was thinking about it. I do have wheels. If you're in town, it would be cool to hang. Should have most of tomorrow free. Let me know.
