Today is not only Veterans Day, it is also my sister's birthday. For that reason, it is easy for me to remember that it is also Mose Allison's birthday.

In his honor, I will later today open up what I believe to be his most recent release, The Mose Chronicles - Volume 2.

Also Hoagy Carmichael and Hannibal Marvin Peterson, among others.

Listening to:

IMDB says Hoagy's is Nov. 22nd. Love Hoagy! But he didn't quite sing "GA's on My Mind"... :rolleyes:

Love Mose, too - happy birthday!

Mose is celebrating his birthday by performing in metro Detroit this week, including tonight, at this restaurant/jazz club: http://www.metroalive.com/Michigan/grossepointe/dirtydog/

It's owned by Gretchen Valade, an heir to the Carhartt Clothing fortune, owner of Mack Avenue Records and the woman who saved the Detroit International Jazz Festival from extinction by endowing the foundation that now produces it.

Mose has class. When I caught him at the Paris Blue Note club back in 1959, his car was parked outside the place: a decade old Rolls Royce!
