danasgoodstuff Posted September 4 Report Share Posted September 4 My choice on threads like this is always Butch Warren, ubiquitous on the (inter)national scene for a couple of years and then back home to deal with stuff. And Tommy Cogbill, session player in Memphis and Muscle Shoals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We hope to find the recording – see photo! was Maxine Gregg (later Gordon) married to Jack at one point, or were they siblings? I could never parse that. She played cello with early editions of the Galaxie Dream Band before being with Woody Shaw and, later, Dexter, and then we know a bit of the history afterwards...

Niko Posted September 5 Report Share Posted September 5 I am pretty sure I read somewhere that they were married.... Will try to remember where... maybe I just remembered what I considered most plausible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted September 5 Report Share Posted September 5 Maxine Gregg was with Woody Shaw immediately prior to moving to Dexter. As for the Greggs. this will not resolve the issue, but there is this: https://www.discogs.com/artist/416578-Gunter-Hampel-Group Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeweil Posted September 5 Report Share Posted September 5 (edited) Just found this on this same forum, posted in 2009 by Tom Marcello, whom I consider a reliable source: "Another thing that's interesting is that Woody is playing with Maxine Gregg's ex-husband." Jack Gregg, that is. Edited September 5 by mikeweil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFrank Posted September 7 Report Share Posted September 7 (edited) On 9/5/2024 at 12:52 PM, felser said: Graham Maby with Joe Jackson. There was a nice interview with him on the Caropop Podcast recently here: Graham Maby (Joe Jackson) Caropop Graham Maby is one of rock’s most revered bassists, known especially for his work with Joe Jackson. Maby and Jackson were in another band together in England before Jackson proposed forming his own band with Maby’s bass front and center. That was the approach of Jackson’s first three albums—starting with 1979’s Look Sharp!—and the ever-gracious Maby reflects on how his indelible parts came to be. He also recalls the breakup of the Joe Jackson Band, his continued work with Jackson on albums such as Night and Day and Body and Soul, and what prompted him to join previous Caropop guest Marshall Crenshaw's band. How did Crenshaw’s approach to bass parts differ from Jackson’s? How did Maby wind up back in the Jackson fold? And when will they record and perform together next? https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/caropop/id1588331867?i=1000660428630 +++ Can I add: Jamaaladeen Tacuma and Melvin Gibbs?
