Strider Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) Gerry Mulligan was also born on this day in 1927. This is a beautiful album from 1963. Gerry handles Chopin a little more smoothly than Jimmy Page. Track 4 @ 16:07 Edited April 7 by Strider Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Strider Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) I am listening to genius. The amount of legendary talent assembled in this room is unbelievable, starting with today's birthday girl, Billie Holiday. Joining Lady Day are: Ben Webster - tenor saxophone, Lester Young - tenor saxophone, Vic Dickenson - trombone, Gerry Mulligan - baritone saxophone, Coleman Hawkins - tenor saxophone, Roy Eldridge - trumpet, Doc Cheatham - trumpet, Danny Barker - guitar, Milt Hinton - double bass, Mal Waldron - piano, and Osie Johnson - drums. "The Sound of Jazz" broadcast on CBS in 1957. Edited April 7 by Strider Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Strider Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 Finally got into Amoeba the last couple of days. Of course, all the Led Zeppelin was picked clean. No rare goodies left. But I did pick up some good Rolling Stones and Johnny Cash vinyl, and this new addition to Stereolab's "Switched On" series…Volume 4 in limited number edition. My number is 0871…which I read as August 1971, the date that Led Zeppelin started their 1971 North American tour. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
