WIMR

[progmom]

4. Hey WIMR

I'd be glad to! :hi:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

5. Thank ya!

:hug:

[immoderate]

11. Hey WIMR!

I noted your great posts the other day in GD. I felt some pride about the young folks here at DU. Now I see you are a jazz fan and that explains a lot. Jazz make you use your brain in humanistic and wonderful ways. Or maybe you have to have a certain level of brain activity to appreciate jazz? Either way, you continue to impress. So here we are with (the great) progmom. Not a surprise.:hi:

12. Hi IMM!

Thank you for your kind words! Oh, yay, I sound like a broken record! :D :D

No, seriously, I adore jazz. ;) ;) I missed prog's show last week by about ten minutes.... Waaaaah! I'm in today, though. :D :D

:hug:

Can't listen again this week either :(

Just wanted to pop in, and offer you a :hug:

:loveya:

[progmom]

29. hey sweetie!

:hug:

[immoderate]

9. Hi progmom!

Some Gary Burton perhaps.

Chega de Saudade (he recorded it twice, either one is good) or "I Want You" the Dylan song. I see you got vibes going already. We talked about Dylan jazz covers when you played Madeline Peyroux a couple of weeks ago. I could hear more of that too.

Thank you my dear. :loveya:

[Hugin]

10. Hiyas!

(I'm still on a Mozart binge.)

[progmom]

38. now that's some good music!

:hi:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

13. Dude.... This is some kick-ass stuff on now...

My brain is so fuzzy today.... Sax, piano, guitar/bass at about 12:23 Eastern.....What am I hearing?

:thumbsup::thumbsup:

[progmom]

14. Hank & Frank - You Made A Good Move

Hank Jones on piano and Frank Wess on tenor sax.

[WritingIsMyReligion]

15. It was awesome, prog.

Tenor sax kicked ass there!

Good pick!

:hi:

[progmom]

23. frank wess is one of my favorites

:bounce:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

24. Definitely.

:bounce:

:D

[immoderate]

16. Serious jazz trivia question.

There was a Coltrane Quartet recording of "Dear Old Stockholm" on an Impulse! sampler early sixties. It was not released (to my knowledge) on CD. Could you track that down? McCoy was on piano.

--IMM

[WritingIsMyReligion]

18. Ooooh....

I'd like to hear that, too. ;) ;)

WIMR

[immoderate]

25. Then I hope you've heard the Monk/Coltrane Carnegie concert.

The discovery of those tapes after fifty years qualifies as a miracle. It's a recording that immediately plunked itself down on every essential jazz list. It's historic and reveals facets of those musicians not present on their other repertoire. in short, it's mind blowing.

--IMM

[WritingIsMyReligion]

27. I want it so fucking badly....

But no, I don't have it.

:cry::cry:

:D

WIMR

[progmom]

22. i'm looking for it

:D

[immoderate]

28. If you can't find it...

...it's not there.

Do you remember the name of that Impulse! series?

BTW, love the Sonny Rollins "Way Out West." Thanks.

--IMM

[SeattleGirl]

17. Hooray! I finally get to hear your show!

[progmom]

33. Oh yay!!

46. yes it is

[WritingIsMyReligion]

49. That was another kick-ass song, prog!

Glad you found it!

:D

[immoderate]

52. I'm confused.

Review at Amazon says that Roy Haynes is on drums. But that's definitely Elvin. Are there other tracks?

--IMM

[immoderate]

61. Ok so it's not Elvin.

But I wouldn't have taken that for Roy.:dunce:

--IMM

[WritingIsMyReligion]

62. IMM has been wrong!

*gasp*

:D :D ;)

:hi:

[immoderate]

73. Yes, but somehow I bear it nobly. Sniff!

I average one or two misses per show. Fortunately, progmom does not keep score. I love the blindfold tests.

--IMM

[WritingIsMyReligion]

74. LOL

:D :D

[MrSandman]

39. Thanks for the music..nt

[progmom]

43. thanks for listening!

[WritingIsMyReligion]

42. Fucking good song!

I second the nomination, if you haven't already run over your Ellington quota for the day :D :D

[progmom]

45. i had an ellington set last hour...

[immoderate]

47. Danger! Danger!

Too much Ellington and Coltrane!:nuke:

[WritingIsMyReligion]

50. Damn right, there's no such thing.

[immoderate]

54. Warning! >> I never use the sarcasm smilie!

Unless I'm using it sarcastically.

--IMM

[WritingIsMyReligion]

56. !

:rofl:

:D

[immoderate]

64. Using the Sarcasm smilie...

is like making "Get it?" the punchline of every joke.

--IMM

[WritingIsMyReligion]

65. Very true.

;)

[WritingIsMyReligion]

51. You rule, prog!

[EstimatedProphet]

71. I smell Bluenote!

Is that Blue Bossa?

--IMM

[WritingIsMyReligion]

72. Well,

Whatever it is, 'tis good.

:D

[immoderate]

78. Hold on, I'm not sure of that.

I mean, I agree that it's good. See--I was wrong again. Except that it's a Bluenote album.

But I remain fearless.:patriot:

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

79. The tune "Light As A Feather" from Chick Corea's album of the same name

Actually the artists are Chick Corea and Return To Forever. I especially love the sax solo on that tune by Joe Farrell. It gets me high without any help whatsoever.

[progmom]

83. maybe next week?

my show just ended

[immoderate]

86. And a fine show it was!

Thanks for spinnin' those tracks, and of course, the good info.

--IMM
