RDK Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Shorty Sherrock & Sonny Sharrock MG Then there was that Flintstones character, Shirley Sheetrock. Quote
RDK Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Don Cherry & Don Cherry Which one's the hockey guy? Quote
BruceH Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 I recently had a conversation with fellow board-member BruceH where we kept mixing up Walter Davis, Jr. and Walter Bishop, Jr. Though I don't mix them up in my mind, my tongue keeps tripping over Buddy Holly and Billie Holiday, two of my all-time favorites (as well as profound influences on my own musical concepts). I was just gonna say... Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Here's one. More Quadromania MG That sure don't look like Henry Red Allen MG Quote
ep1str0phy Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 Don Cherry & Don Cherry Which one's the hockey guy? Then there's Don Cherry + Don Cherry + Don Cherry (free/world/improv pioneer + vocalist + hockey cat). Quote
jazztrain Posted February 9, 2007 Report Posted February 9, 2007 How about Keter Betts and Skeeter Best? I never can keep them straight. Quote

AllenLowe Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 Dickey Wells and Dickey Wells (one of them was a club owner in Harlem in the 1930s, really) Quote
mikeweil Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 Granville T. Hogan & Wilbur Hogan - to make things worse, both are drummers! Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 Granville T. Hogan & Wilbur Hogan - to make things worse, both are drummers! And isn't Granville sometimes referred to as Granville "Mickey" Hogan? MG Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted February 10, 2007 Report Posted February 10, 2007 Lee Otis Bass III and Mickey Bass - both bass players, both THE SAME bass player! MG Quote

Shawn Posted February 12, 2007 Report Posted February 12, 2007 One of my "non-jazz" friends can't tell the difference between Eric Dolphy & a goose... Quote
Swinging Swede Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 Pat Bowie and Patti Bown, who both recorded for Prestige in the 60s. What were the odds that there would be threads started about them both within half an hour? Quote
marcello Posted March 21, 2008 Report Posted March 21, 2008 Granville T. Hogan & Wilbur Hogan - to make things worse, both are drummers! And isn't Granville sometimes referred to as Granville "Mickey" Hogan? MG That's funny. Drummer Mickey Roker's real first name is Granville. Joe Locke wrote a song for him called "Big Town" on the Rev-elation cd. Quote
Kari S Posted March 22, 2008 Report Posted March 22, 2008 Milt Hinton and Milt Jackson and Michael Jackson and Michael Jackson the beer guy Mick Goodrick and Mick Nock ... maybe I don't get this game. Quote
jimi089 Posted March 22, 2008 Report Posted March 22, 2008 Michael Jackson and Michael Jackson the beer guy There's also a Michael Jackson jazz photographer/writer. There are two Michael Raynors active as drummers in jazz - one goes by Mike Raynor and lives on the west coast, and here in Chicago we have Michael Raynor who plays with Von Freeman. The Chicago Raynor is very careful to make sure he's introduced as Michael rather than Mike to differentiate. Quote

BillF Posted March 22, 2008 Report Posted March 22, 2008 Two entries from The Virgin Encyclopedia of Jazz , ed. Colin Larkin: "Nick Brignola, baritone saxophonist .... played for various leaders, including Woody Herman .... (This artist is unrelated to the baritone saxophonist Mike Brignola who played with Herman in the 80s.)" "Sammy Nestico, arranger .... He is a cousin of the arranger Sal Nistico." However, the encylopedia's entry for Sal Nistico understandably describes him as a saxophonist, but doesn't mention arranging. Quote

The Magnificent Goldberg Posted March 26, 2008 Report Posted March 26, 2008 Are you back, MG? Yeah - had some connection problems (not my end), but it's been all right since yesterday afternoon. Trouble with free broadband is, when it's not there, you don't get a refund! MG Quote
