I like "Dave Brubeck's Greatest Hits" (CBS). It has a couple of cuts from
"Time Out", and some other interesting Brubeck tunes. My copy of the LP is
well worn (almost to worn to make a decent recording of it).

Unfortunately, it seems that CBS has not released this album on CD (I haven't
checked for a couple of months, though). This peeves me. Before CD's came
along, it was difficult to get Brubeck stuff from CBS except for "Greatest
Hits". Now that I really enjoy all of the songs on that release, most of the
tunes on "Greatest Hits" are not available on the Brubeck CD's released by
CBS. "Greatest Hits" is still available on cassettes.

The majority of the GRP collection is good. However I recommend the
following at the top of my GRP list:

*     The  10th Anniversary All Star Big Band
*     Chick Corea Acoustic Band - GRD-9582
*     Lee Ritour - Colour Rit
*     Lee Ritnour  - Festival
*     The GRP Christmas Collection - Vol. 1
*		   Dave Grusin - Collection
*     Dave Grusin - Cinemagic
*     Yellow Jackets - Live Wires

I did not imply that. I meant that *many* of those rallying forth with
the "separate blues and jazz on the net" banner need to do their
homework. It wasn't a sweeping generalization :-)

Yes and no. Yes I agree that as the category defined earlier by you,
the traffic does not really mix. No, I do not agree that that is
sufficient reason to split the group because, and I'm being an
optimist here, the potential of the relationship that the two styles
have will be, IMO, undermined -- the somewhat naive current blues
net.traffic notwithstanding.

Gil played with Pat Martino for awhile. He is on at least one of

There has been some talk about Gil Goldstein taking Lyle Mays' chair on
the recent Metheny tour.   This got me wondering as to his
background.   The only album of mine that I know he is on is a duo with
Eric Kloss called SHARING (Omnisound1044), recorded in 1981.  It is a
lovely album b.t.w.   Very melodic and introspective.  I can see why he
was tapped to replace Lyle.

The liners mention Gil had backed singers such as Astrud Gilberto,
Robert Goulet, Edie Adams, The 4 Tops, and the Smothers Bros.!  Anyone
know what else he's done -- especially in the "bluenote" vein?

Then I started wondering what happened to Eric Kloss, one of the true
rising alto stars.  Something tells me he isn't with us anymore.  Is
this true?

Which also reminds me of Barry Miles, an early practitioner of Fusion with
whom Kloss had a close association.  I haven't heard anything from him
for a long time.  Anyone know what he's up to?

 Look again. there's a big jazz festival going on in the city then.
 There should be a tremendous show on Oct 29 at the newly remodeled

Following up questions about other SRV recordings.

About a month ago someone on the net, maybe in this group
mentioned a few SRV bootlegs.  These were available from
an Italian bootlegging company going by the name of
Lobster records.

By a brilliant bit of luck I visited Italy a week later.
Armed with this knowledge I went looking.  It only took
two visits to CD shops in Pisa to track down a triple live 
bootleg CD, and a further single live bootleg.

Stevie Ray Vaughan, Mega rare trax V1, Lobster records LOB.035/3

Live recordings from, Toronto 1983, Philadelphia 1983, Los Angeles 1983,
Tokyo 1985, Dallas 1985, Monteal 1985, Dallas 1986, Italy 1988, 
New York 1989, Alberquerquie 1989, Houston 1990, Austin 1990.

Quite a few repeated tracks, and a few new ones.

Stevie Ray Vaughan in Italy,
recorded live at "Pistola Blues Festival" July 1988,
Piazza Del Duomo, Italy.  Beech Marten Records, BM 033.
(Three tracks off this CD are also on the Mage Rare above.)

I have only just got home, so have not listened to anything yet.
I'll write up a bit more later.


Prices will make those who pay for bootlegs through specialist
dealers weep.  I paid a total of 76,000 lira for the four CDs.
That is about $70 US.

More later.

Excuse me, Mr Makala, but being the Pan-Africanist that I am,  I am of
the opinion that reggae and jazz have their roots in Africa and hence
are essentially African.

    This, to me, is the best argument yet for not splitting r.m.b-n. One
of the enjoyable parts of reading this group is the lack of flames over
posting content. Everything from Duke Ellington, Stevie Ray Vaughn, to
Bela Fleck, can be discussed, without someone complaining that " That's
not jazz ". 
    If a new jazz only group gets proposed, I'd suggest rec.music.jazz.purist,
for those who only want to talk about their idea of jazz.
    I started reading this group to enquire about some old Weather Report 
recordings. Since then, I've been turned on to quite a bit of different
music that would not fit in either jazz or blues categories, yet no one
is made to feel uncomfortable here.
    I'd echo the sentiment that it's not broken, and would definately vote
against it.

Spectrum. Its listed as "Live At Birdland/Half Note", its on Cool 'n Blue
(NOTE 'Blue' reference in jazz label--yes, there is a special connection)
and its CBCD 9101.

Has anybody seen the Manhattan Transfer album 'Pastiche' on CD?
That is the last one to be transfered to digital format, all the others
I've already gotten (folks at Atlantic Records, wake up please!).
