BillF Posted May 23, 2015 Report Posted May 23, 2015 Sorry if this has already been posted earlier in the thread but, John McLaughlin Is it Mc-Lock-lin or Mc-Loff-lin? Cheers. Mc-Lock-lin Quote
sidewinder Posted May 23, 2015 Report Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) Sorry if this has already been posted earlier in the thread but, John McLaughlin Is it Mc-Lock-lin or Mc-Loff-lin? Cheers. Mc-Lock-lin Depends which side of the border you are on I guess (Scottish, not Watford Gap ). I always thought it was the latter. Edited May 23, 2015 by sidewinder Quote

Mc-Lock-lin Depends which side of the border you are on I guess (Scottish, not Watford Gap ). I always thought it was the latter. That's how my friend Danny Padmore who played bass with him in his early days pronounces it. Edited May 23, 2015 by BillF Quote

ghost of miles Posted September 7, 2015 Report Posted September 7, 2015 "Huge Pain Ass-y"?Just guessing. Actually, it's for an upcoming Night Lights "Bebop Comes To Europe" program, and one of the musical tracks I'm using, by Hubert Fol and His Bebop Minstrels (inc. Kenny Clarke), is titled "Assy Panassy." Whomever could they possibly be referring to? Quote
JSngry Posted September 7, 2015 Report Posted September 7, 2015 Was he the guy who can be heard giving play-by-play and color commentary during a performance? I'd hope not, but there's something somewhere where soembody does that, and it's funny, weird, and irritating as fuck all at one. Quote
ghost of miles Posted September 7, 2015 Report Posted September 7, 2015 Are you thinking of these tracks?Miles Davis and Tadd Dameron in Paris 1949It's not Panassie (who despised bebop) there--announcers "unknown" and "Maurice Cullaz" (rather prominent voice in French jazz radio/criticism circles, apparently. Brownie could undoubtedly fill all of this in much more). Quote
Van Basten II Posted September 7, 2015 Report Posted September 7, 2015 Last name is rather easy Pann-ass-yeah First name not so much as both syllables do not have the same equivalency in english , The hu is pronounced the Hu of huge but with more accent on the u like they say it spanish as in the cu of cuando , the ghes is similmar to the gh is pronounced the same like ghetto but the e sounds like the way they pronounce it in German Quote

Brownie could undoubtedly fill all of this in much more).Probably so...but I have a memory (maybe just of a dream) where some guy was actually doing the verbal equivalent of an Ira Gitler liner note review.as the performance unfolded...is there a French version of one of the Esquire concerts that has something like this? The guy was really breathless, like it was a prizefight.Hopefully, though, it's all a dream. Or a nightmare. Either way... Quote
Dave Garrett Posted September 8, 2015 Report Posted September 8, 2015 I think aparxa nailed it - forvo.com doesn't have Panassié listed, but here's an entry (with a streamable sound file) for another Hugues that should give you an idea:http://forvo.com/word/hugues_de_payens/#fr Quote
GA Russell Posted July 6, 2020 Report Posted July 6, 2020 (I hope this isn't a repeat!) Illinois Jacquet I once heard a live performance where the MC introduced him as "Illi-noyz Jacket." Maybe so, but I've always been skeptical. Anybody know for sure? Quote
JSngry Posted July 6, 2020 Report Posted July 6, 2020 Jean-Baptiste "Illinois" Jacquet born to Marguerite Trahan and Gilbert Jacquet in Broussard, Louisiana. I think you know how to pronounce that! Quote
Rooster_Ties Posted July 6, 2020 Report Posted July 6, 2020 (edited) How about Tim Hagans? I’ve always said “HAH-guhns”. But I vaguely remember (later) learning it’s actually “HAY-guhns” — but I’ve never been able to break myself of the first way I started saying it probably going on 30 years ago. Or I suppose another option might be with a short ‘a’ like in ‘hat’. In any case, I’m practically positive the stress is on the first syllable. I did hear Tim once, just once, back around 1995 in Lawrence Kansas, in Joe Lovano’s piano-less quartet (with Anthony Cox on bass, and I forget the drummer). No idea what the stage announcements that night were (or I’d know now). Edited July 6, 2020 by Rooster_Ties Quote
