7/4 Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 (edited) Jan. 10, 1960? A pretty good week-- Charles Mingus is at the Showplace Ornette Coleman is at the Five Spot Kenny Burrell Trio at the Village Vanguard The Jazztet at the Jazz Gallery Zoot Sims, Al Cohn and Mose Allison at the Half Note Thanks. I should'a guessed Ornette was at the Five Spot, but now I know for sure! Edited December 29, 2005 by 7/4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vic I tried but it appears jazz was still beneath the New Yorker at that time, as they do not have jazz club listings or ads. It was the third week of showings of Chaplin's Modern Times.

kh1958 Posted December 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 I can't decide whether to go see the Louis Armstrong All Stars (with Earl Hines, Jack Teagarden and Barney Bigard) at Bop City (Broadway and 49th Street); or Erroll Garner, plus Bud Powell, Fats Navarro and J. J. Johnson at Birdland (Broadway and 52d St.). Only three short blocks apart! Would ya check 6/15/50? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing depressing is that I didn't get to see what was playing that week-- Jaki Byard at Angry Squire (actually May 1 and 2), Dannie Richmond Quintet closes on May 3 (Sunday) at the Village Vanguard (followed on Tuesday by the Elvin Jones group) Fat Tuesday has Chet Baker West Boondock's has Sadik Hakim (who I thought recorded with Charlie Parker and disappeared thereafter).

NYC is THE town to live in if you love the music. I'm in L.A. which great too--not what it was a couple of decades back, but still many, many great players and enough clubs and other venues to make sure there is always something to hear. I hear live jazz about 5-6 times a month and I dont think I could live without it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexander Hawkins Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 Wow - I stand corrected! Quite a choice indeed. Thank you for taking the time to look that up! Actually, I went to NYC for the first time ever just before Christmas, and I confess, I'm jealous... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dannie Richmond Quintet closes on May 3 (Sunday) at the Village Vanguard (followed on Tuesday by the Elvin Jones group) I have a tape of that Dannie Richmond band that I made during that very week when I saw them.

kh1958 Posted December 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 A small world! I don't usually liike to bother musicians, but I did introduce myself to Dannie Richmond when he appeared with the Mingus Dynasty at the Caravan of Dreams. He was very friendly. I surmise he had been approached by many Mingus fanatics (including me) over the years, as he gently expressed the hope that I did not concentrate exclusively on Mingus in my jazz listening, though he said he could understand that fascination.

chris olivarez Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 If you could check on July 24,1951 2amish it would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kh1958 Posted December 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 Dizzy Gillespie, Slim Gaillard and Dinah Washington are all at Birdland. Bobby Hackett (with Vic Dickenson and Zutty Singleton) and Red Norvo are at the Embers. Not much modern jazz coverage this issue. It's a bit strange to see the Village Vanguard listed under Supper Clubs, with Shoshanna Damari (a small, fetching siren from Israel), Orson Bean, and the Clarence Williams trio (playing for dancers). If you could check on July 24,1951 2amish it would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
