brownie Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 my booklets tell me that Andrew Hill - PoDep was recorded March 21 and that Mingus - Todo Modo was recorded in 1976. ??? couw, 1976 is correct for the Mingus, not 1977. Checked the inside liner note of the original vinyl. Have edited my earlier post. On a similar vein, you mentioned a March 23, 1940 Gus Viseur record session in occupied Paris. Paris was not occupied then. All French patriots were still keeping their faith then on the Maginot Line which the German army would never go over! March 1940 was still 'La Drole de Guerre' time. The nasty Germans did not bother to go over the Maginot Line and just went around it to march into Paris in June 1940. I know you were not born then (I was!) Quote
EKE BBB Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 (edited) I know you were not born then (I was!) Young enough to avoid memories of those hard times, I hope! Edited March 31, 2005 by EKE BBB Quote

brownie Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 I know you were not born then (I was!) Young enough to avoid memories of those hard times, I hope! I was just a very young babe then. No memories of the Germans troops marching in! But I still have memories of later wartimes that keep my mind busy... Quote
MartyJazz Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 my booklets tell me that Andrew Hill - PoDep was recorded March 21 Mea culpa. According to the Andrew Hill discography (click here) you are indeed correct. The note I attached to the LP copy I have owned for over 30 years also indicates a 3/21 recording date. I posted the wrong date of 3/31 as this is the date on the Blue Note CD copy I have. Quote
brownie Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 Just proves that we are humans. Not computers. And we all make mistakes. Some time... And as the old saying went: 'To err is human, but to really fuck things up requires a computer'. I remember that note stuck on a machine in the early days of computers! Quote
couw Posted March 31, 2005 Report Posted March 31, 2005 'To err is human, but to really fuck things up requires a computer'. heheheh. I suspect my computer changes some data in my list at times! Good thing I have mistakes pointed out in this thread so I can keep that darn machine under control! Quote
