I knew a guy from Houston (4th Ward iirc), my age, who when he first heard Ike (that album) and saw the cover, had an immediate moment of recognition of Ike as "one of those pool hall guys". Still love that image, Ike as a pool hall guy, seems to me that there's no way in hell for that to be anything other than totally true!

Excuse my ignorance - what is the meaning of" pool hall guy" in this context ....?

Dave Liebman & Richie Beirach - The Duo Live: 1976-1990 (Vaju Productions)
Liebman self-released this set, an expanded version of the duo recordings on their Mosaic Select set. What was a single disc in the Mosaic set amounts to 4 hours of music here.  ... I'm now listening to cuts from '76 recorded at the Keystone Korner.  Absolutely brilliant music, imho.

ghost, do the liner notes explain the knot on Dolphy's forehead in that photograph?  Just wondering...

No, but I've read mention of it elsewhere--that Monk told him not to get it removed, that it was his "knowledge bump."  Iirc Dolphy actually did have it removed, not long before he died.

Whoa, that has to be a good one.  I last saw Liebman with Phil Haynes and Drew Gress in November.  I need to pull out that Mosaic Select soon.  I found a used library copy a few years ago for the ridiculously low price of $24. :)

The 1992 recordings are very, very good -- but the stuff from '76 is absolutely AMAZING.  As on the Mosaic set, you have to make some allowances for the quality of the recorded sound. But the music is just extraordinary... I'm grateful to have it despite the less-than-ideal fidelity.
