I swear to god, Jamie singing a jingle is some of the sexiest music of the 20th Century. I mean that sincerely. Put the lady on a real pop tune, ehhhh, but give her a jingle to sing and hell yeah.

One sided private promo 33, and the label reads:

JOE SILVIA

Steve Lacy - Disposability - (VIK, Italy)

If I had to whittle all the Lacy on my shelves down to a half dozen items, this would be one of them - one of my absolute favorites.

Commemorating a Decade of Tranquilizer Therapy...ushered in by the discovery of 'Miltown' (meprobamate)--still, today, the therapeutic standard in the control of anxiety. - Wallace Laboratories, Cranbury, N.J.

A one-sided LP of a 1964 luncheon address bu the then-president of the AMA in which he urges physicians and psychiatrists to get over their mutual distrust, work together as allies in the battle against anxiety, and start prescribing more tranquilizers, because that will reduce the need for mental asylums, and if you don't believe me, here's some statistics from Louisiana. Comes with the original drug information sheet about Miltown.

Yup it's definitely up there in the top five or ten for sure!

And the original DG issue is by far the best sounding edition; none of that weird clipping which is on the CD and later LP edition.

I did have that crappy boot at one point; the sound was amazingly bad.

Now:

Mal Waldron - Nuits de la Negritude - (Powertree/Black Lion, JP)

The liner notes are exquisitely honest about what this is all about, and any program that begins with "Through The Eyes Of A Child" and ends with "I'm Living in Shame" should be taken at its word.

Players not credited (and hard as heel to find listed anywhere. Tuns out to be (per http://muroreco.shop-pro.jp/?pid=21977812 )

Pat Thomas(vo), Tommy Flanagan(p), Booker Little(tp), Curtis Fuller(tb), Roland Alexander(ts, fl), Teddy Charles(vib), Kenny Burrell(g), Reggie Workman(b), Charlie Persip(ds)

I had Fuller pegged right away, was leaning towards Charles because of the tremelo/vibrato setting ont he vibes, but I swear, I thought Reggie Workman was Ron Carter. The pressing is crap and has been played since new, but the bass playing on this record is something to hear, just a rich fat sound with articulation and sustain still very rare in jazz of the time. So, yeah, Reggie Workman, makes sense. Everybody else, had me guessing, and still am not 100% sold that it's Burrell.

Not a particularly well "presented" session, and Ms. Thomas seems a bit ill at ease (or maybe that's just how she sung), but definitely, she knew what she wanted to sing and how.

Also, I think that she used to come through Albuquerque in the early 1980s when I lived there, seems like the name was Pat Thomas. If so, she had a working band and a MD who created the trio arrangements to perfectly fit her concept. Every tune was tight as a glove and full of little quirks that worked (unlike the presentation here, which is very much run the tunes). But I had never heard of her then, and had forgotten all about her until finding this record, so...might not be the same person at all.

Who's on bass?

Excellent record. With some excellent Kenny Wheeler.

True - I was probably even more impressed with Thomas Heberer's solo work on this album. Wheeler's 'Ana' is featured on side 1 of course.

Dickey Myers - Dickey's Mood (Quadrangle). A 1979 album by an obscure, but talented tenor saxophonist, produced by one Allen Lowe, who wrote four of the tunes. The great Joe Albany is on piano.

oi, weird memories; brilliant but hopelessly self destructive saxophonist; great guy, but hooked up with a truly evil woman who burned a lot of bridges (both are now dead). I also have a very interesting tape of him playing duos with Joe Albany; but that LP got him an offer from George Wein, yes, George Wein, and Dickey was too afraid to respond,
