In case you didn't hear about it. the legendary Soupy Sales passed on last month. I didn't really get a chance to give him his just due as I was in the middle of the Halloween countdown and a Soupy post just didn't fit. So, today I offer you Soupy's first album. It's a soundtrack of sorts but more of a companion album to his television show. The show originated in 1953 from the studios of WXYZ-TV in...

Gilad Atzmon (alt/sop/clt), Frank Harrison (pno), ? (bs), ? (dms). Sigamos String Quartet. This was more than just a re-creation of the legendary Bird with Strings albums from the 1950s - it was much much more. Admitedly Gilad paid lip-service to Charlie Parker inasmuch as he faithfully re-produced the themes and the string voicings were more or less as per the original but in-between he was very much...

I haven't written much about Gillian Tett lately. To tell you the truth, she hasn't really been on my mind.But it is past midnight now and I am listening to Charlie Parker with Strings, and - surprisingly - there are no voices, no spirits, no mystical children, to bother me, and so I turn my mind to earthly matters.

As a result, Claire sent the following which I am sure is of interest to North-east jazz enthusiasts. Lance. ----- The Literary and Philosophical Society (Lit &...

I stayed up until 4:30 am watching the New York Yankees win their 40th AL Pennant, and now I'm too wired to sleep. In light of that, I have a few random thoughts.

I'd tell him myself but he's yet to respond to the last letter I sent with locks of my hair in it. If Robinson Cano was a genre...
