don't know if i overlooked someone else's mention of trombonist christian
muthspiel, but there's a nice little CD on amadeo called simply
MUTHSPEIL-PEACOCK-MUTHSPEIL-MOTION. that would be wolgang on gtr, gary on
bass and paul on drums.
and of course, craig harris. to cross threads, he blows terrifically on
"Just the Facts" and "When was that?" Ray Anderson takes over on "Subject
to Change" ....
But George Lewis is my lord. Particularly that Arista LP with Braxton
(Live in Berlin, I think), and on the charming Nuz4Lulu....

Ooops- got him mixed up with another tboneist I guess- maybe it was Malfetti I was thinking about. Anyway, I remember reading about it on the Web sometime last year. Many apologies...:(

Say WHAT? Did I somehow miss word of Rudd's passing since I saw him in
September and he was quoted in the New York Times on the subject of "Ken
Burns Jazz" about three weeks ago? (I'm not slapping you, I'm perfectly

IIRC, he has some stuff released on Ambiances Magnetiques
(www.actuellecd.com).

I feel fairly confident in saying that Malfatti's not dead either, since he
sent me an e-mail yesterday.

Check out the duo CD Johannes and Conrad BAuer, brothers who both play
trombone. It's just the two of them recorded in the Volkershclachtdenkmal
(hope I got that right) in Leipzig, a structure with an echo that lasts seven
or eight seconds or more. It's just the two of them and it's a pretty
incredible document. There's a solo piece by Conrad that invariably stops me
in my tracks every time, no matter what I'm doing.

Well darn it- somebody's dead, I'm sure. Never mind me.

Conrad has some great moments on Baby Sommers' _7 Hit Pieces_ on the Enemy label. I don't think this one has been re-issued either...but with my track record so far tonight, I'm probably wrong there too.

I will agree with Alan on this one. Personally, I prefer Dexter's work on
Blue Note (produced by Alfred Lion and engineered by Rudy Van Gelder) to his
later work for Columbia/CBS.
I tremendously admire Jaco, also. However, Jaco's solo output was uneven --
at least what we've been able to see out there -- some of it brilliant, other
work was crap. But, there probably isn't a musician of any genre who hasn't
had an off night or two. Personally, I think a Jaco box set is long overdue.
Best regards,
Mark

As of last report, Generalissimo Francisco Franco was still dead.
