I think part of the art of taking or refusing requests is to hear past what the requester is saying and to divine what they actually MEAN. Of course in some cases that's impossible. But in the case of the 'not big band' request it pretty clearly meant 'something not so old and mono', at least I think.

the one i mentioned was recorded in 1961 and 1966 and it features a four saxophone unit with a rhythm section. interesting arrangements, lots of soloing, great jazz. i mean, how can it not be? coleman hawkins was one of the other saxes, jo jones played drums.

There is a companion book to the movie/photo which gives more detail about the event and also an index of exactly who is who. It also has a photograph of the same stoop about 35 years later with the same people ... those who were still alive. There were maybe 10 people in the shot, and one of them w...

How well do you know your collection?
I remember when I used to own maybe a hundred CDs (total) and I knew the track order and song title and opening bars on every CD by heart. Well, that's been long untrue. I haven't cared because I have no need to know. But in your professional capacities as DJs, surely you all must have more than pas...

I could never bear to sell or give away CDs I currently dislike, because on at least 3 or 4 occasions in all the years I've been buying music, I've changed my mind about some albums. In one case, some bad recordings of Charlie Parker, it was because I didn't know what bop or jazz was really about at...

I wish I'd never bought a Laserlight collection of Count Basie. I gotta qualify this one. We've discussed Laserlight before. Although there are some bad Laserlight compilations out there, that is the nature of a budget label or almost ANY label, for that matter. My first several experiences with La...
