no fair. I had one of these "morning" things just yesterday.

Fri. 6/10/11 9:19am Scott:

It happens.

Fri. 6/10/11 9:41am Pat in Philadelphia:

Wow! Elvin Jones ripped on that!

Fri. 6/10/11 9:53am Cecile:

I like the later, whackadoo Albert Ayler, but what you played was just lovely.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:10am Cecile:

when is this Warren Smith from? It's like a mix of Mingus, Basie and Sun Ra.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:11am Drummer Some:

I LOVE Warren Smith! His brother used to be in an artists collective...with my mother.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:12am Dead Corporate Eyes:

TCM has been airing documentaries on Monk, Bird, Brubeck the last few days. Haven't watched 'em yet but DVR'd em for future video binging.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:12am Cecile:

aren't you supposed to be at work, Drummer? :D

DCE, gotta check that out.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:13am Drummer Some:

I gotta longish track playing. Love to stop by and see (if not hear) my ol' pal Scott.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:14am Cecile:

Good to see you!!! and digging the brainy swing this AM, Scott.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:16am Scott:

Nice to have you Doug! Thanks for swinging by.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:16am Cecile:

damn I missed Joe McPhee at Heliotrope 2 wks ago. I was really anti-social. Had to be to miss him.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:19am Dead Corporate Eyes:

there's just some nights where you can't stomach the thought of being around...people!

Fri. 6/10/11 10:23am Cecile:

Yeah. But I know James from Roaratorio busted his butt to get him there, and I felt slightly bad about copping out. But only slightly....:D

Fri. 6/10/11 10:23am Cecile:

I think someone could so a really rich series of forgotten 80s jazz. Because there was a lot of it.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:24am Dead Corporate Eyes:

it took awhile to figure out that sentence, Cecile.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:25am Michael:

Cecile...I saw Joe McPhee at the Heliotrope fest; it was really great!

Fri. 6/10/11 10:26am Cecile:

I'm so glad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fri. 6/10/11 10:27am Cecile:

I saw Paul Flaherty with Corsano and also Corsano with Carla Bozulich, he's pretty great. But missed those two together. But it was really better that I missed it.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:30am Scott:

@cecile I had to read this book on '80s jazz in college and I thought at the time it was so lame but now I realize how much amazing music came out of that time. Wow.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:31am Dead Corporate Eyes:

sounds like a pretty cool course, Scott

Fri. 6/10/11 10:32am Dead Corporate Eyes:

damn, this bagel must have some hot peppers in it or sumthin!

Fri. 6/10/11 10:33am Cecile:

Yeah. There was a lot bubbling under. And even sometimes stuff would slip out on major labels that you'd scratch your head about.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:34am Scott:

I thought it was so corny at the time! ha. Here's the book: http://www.amazon.com/Jazz-1980s-Resurgence-Stuart-Nicholson/dp/0306806126

Fri. 6/10/11 10:34am Cecile:

Tim Berne made a rather noisy record for Columbia, and Henry Threadgill was on RCA for a few albums, with good results. And there were US indies and Hat Hut.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:36am Cecile:

One of my very favorite jazz records, Henry Threadgill's "Just the Facts and Pass the Bucket" came out in '83. And that one is a classic.

Fri. 6/10/11 10:37am Dead Corporate Eyes:

hell, for $2, I'll buy a copy. I need some summer readin'

Fri. 6/10/11 10:39am Dead Corporate Eyes:

oh yeah, work blocks amazon signin page....sigh.

Fri. 6/10/11 11:05am Tom G:

Lovin the show this morning!

Fri. 6/10/11 11:09am Scott:

Happy to hear it Tom!

Fri. 6/10/11 11:30am 12539:

Has every song so far included a saxophone?

Fri. 6/10/11 11:35am Scott:

Hmmm good question. I think the Sun Ra was bass clarinet and oboe.

Fri. 6/10/11 11:36am Scott:

The 1st Sun Ra, that is. Also this hear track playing now doesn't have a sax.

Fri. 6/10/11 11:38am 12539:

In any event, thanks for all the woodwinds.

Fri. 6/10/11 11:39am 12539:

or maybe I mean reeds.

Fri. 6/10/11 11:40am Scott:

My pleasure!

Fri. 6/10/11 12:00pm Cecile:

Fri. 6/10/11 12:00pm Scott:

Fri. 6/10/11 12:00pm Dead Corporate Eyes:
