B. Clugston Posted January 17, 2007 Report Posted January 17, 2007 Another topic: what do you guys think of Braxton's work with Gino Robair? If you are referring to the duo disc on Rastascan, it's a good one. There aren't a lot of Braxton duo discs with percussionists out there. Still, I could name you 50 other Braxton discs I'd snap up first. By the way, Robair is releasing a DVD-A of Braxton recordings with a similar line-up to the 4-CD box. Quote

Guest the mommy Posted January 17, 2007 Report Posted January 17, 2007 why complain about that burrell? it isn't like it will ever in a million years be on an actual legit CD, will it? Quote
Chalupa Posted January 17, 2007 Report Posted January 17, 2007 why complain about that burrell? it isn't like it will ever in a million years be on an actual legit CD, will it? It's unclear whether it will ever see a "legit" release. But that's not the real issue at play here. The question that should be asked is why should DMG be getting money for selling an album when the performers, copyright owners, etc., do not get any money from it? According to DB's manager, DB is one of the few artists who actually does receive monetary compensation, albeit very little, from BYG. Quote
ep1str0phy Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 How did that happen (referring to chalupa's thing on DB getting money from BYG)? Quote
Chalupa Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 How did that happen (referring to chalupa's thing on DB getting money from BYG)? Don't know the mechanics of the deal but here's a quote from an email, "Dave does receive some royalties from the BYG catalog, although he's an exception as he an agent that aggressively tracks this stuff. It's not much however. " Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 How did that happen (referring to chalupa's thing on DB getting money from BYG)? Don't know the mechanics of the deal but here's a quote from an email, "Dave does receive some royalties from the BYG catalog, although he's an exception as he an agent that aggressively tracks this stuff. It's not much however. " Probably publishing money paid by Byg licencees. Certainly not artist royalties. Quote
Chuck Nessa Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 BTW, answering Mommy's question, I will probably reissue "Saga of the Outlaws" this year. I also hope to reissue Roscoe's "Nonaah" and Wadada's "Spirit Catcher". If you care, keep your fingers crossed for extra material on each. Quote
ep1str0phy Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 (edited) Spirit Catcher! Didn't know about that one... good luck, Chuck, and I'm looking forward to these... Edited January 18, 2007 by ep1str0phy Quote

Is 'Spirit Catcher' the harp date? Quote
king ubu Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 It's a bit strange what the mommy posts about me, of late... I can't remember ever bad-mouthing Few as a flowery ornament... a search didn't yield anything, either. Anyway, I have his "Continental Jazz Express" and it's pretty intense. Of course I'm a big fan of Lacy and there's plenty of Few there, about which I don't think I ever complained or made any outspoken negative comments. *********************** Chuck, that's good news about your reissue projects! Looking forward a lot! Quote

Of course I'm a big fan of Lacy and there's plenty of Few there, about which I don't think I ever complained or made any outspoken negative comments. using my superior searching abilities i came up with this bit which i would not consider particularly offensive: I know I still owe you a short review of that Few solo disc I have, "Continental Jazz Express". However, after two listens, I cannot really say much about it - it failed to instantly grab me, but somehow I don't want to say anything bad about it, either... Quote

Well yes, but my own search for "Continental" (since "Few" is unsearchable) and "Bobby" in recoomendations and for any date did not bring that up... I dimly remembered it, though, and it seems my memory was about right. Anyway, on to more interesting topics again now! Quote

Guest the mommy Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 ubu, i said you or DD, i thought. i guess it was not you. not a big deal. i don't even remember the context. just one of you guys, i thought, saying that few played too much. Quote
king ubu Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 Sorry, I was a bit touchy - because of your a-bit-too-youngt-to-be-such-a-purist-comment in the Herbie Mann thread... Quote
Guest the mommy Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 that comment wasn't meant towards you in the mann thread, ubu! Quote
king ubu Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 that comment wasn't meant towards you in the mann thread, ubu! yup, I realized and posted over there, sorry again! Quote
clifford_thornton Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 why complain about that burrell? it isn't like it will ever in a million years be on an actual legit CD, will it? One never knows. I'm on the fence about the whole DMG thing. I mean, Mommy sent me a copy of Le Temps Fou that is a rip. I would never in a million years be able to afford that LP. However, ethically what DMG (and some others) are doing is weak. Nevertheless, few labels really "paid out" in the first place - BYG, Alan Bates or whomever. So whether they would have got royalties from these sessions to begin with seems fairly moot. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 Tooting my own horn on Bobby Few here; please excuse, or peruse: Bobby Few at AAJ Quote
ep1str0phy Posted January 18, 2007 Report Posted January 18, 2007 Toot away, C. Toot away. Again, though, I like Bobby Few. I was just listening to the Ervin date the other day and he's way, way in the pocket--really could play anywhere. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted January 19, 2007 Report Posted January 19, 2007 Mommy, How's the sound on the Boheme rip? Did they clean it up? The BYG doesn't sound all that hot - or at least my copy. Contradiction duly noted. Quote
clifford_thornton Posted January 19, 2007 Report Posted January 19, 2007 Hip shit... Klaus Kugel - drums, percussions Hilliard Greene - double bass Bruce Eisenbeil - acoustic and electric guitars Peter Evans - trumpet, piccolo trumpet, slide trumpet Perry Robinson - clarinets CD "CARNIVAL SKIN" (nemu 003) released 2006 on Nemu Records Quote
ep1str0phy Posted January 19, 2007 Report Posted January 19, 2007 Yeah, that one's been getting some good buzz. I'm looking into picking this one up, although (Robinson and, to a lesser extent, Greene notwithstanding) I haven't heard to much from the members of this group. I've heard some folks praise Eisenbeil's CIMP work, tho... Quote
