#musicbrainz

then again dmppanda, I listen to a lot of various different things just to see if maybe I'll like it.

I'm sure if there's anyone that watches my lastfm page they're sorta... hmm, thinking I'm very all over the place.

Nyght: I do the same. Got a lot of trip-hop / electro stuff, also good'ol Screamin Jay Hawkins, and countless other various things

it's not the lyrics though.. it's that first, oh, fiften to thirty second intro

Nyght: I would just say my heart is in some few Jazzmen, while my feets can go anywhere it smells :p

even the orchestration at ten seconds.. and it stops at about 14 seconds

I can appreciate that!

but most everyone here knows my fave is Klayton Scott's stuff. I think

man ! google leads me straight to Nyghts last fm :D :D :D

;0

;)

You're joking right?!

you come second: http://www.google.fr/search?q=klayton+scott&...

<---has seen her profile on "become Nyght's myspace friend" but...

yes!!!

lol. So, what does it sounds like? (under 1000 annotation so not to freak out perl parser :p)

meant 1000 chars

Um..... wow, hmm, like a mix between upbeat synthesizers, mingled with low deep throbbing bass, and heart wrenching lyrics

I could possibly stand the heat :)

tele took-off?

it looked like he was having a heck of a time with the stupid browser

;) I chose it myself

so do I, I guess :p

ttyl ;)

Nyght: i partially know how it feels. i added all the members to israel philharmonic and took reflex apart

Wow! That sounds like quite an undertaking

musicip demo'd at Always On- Hollywood conference yesterday here in LA. They did an excellent job. archive video here: http://www.goingon.com/tekftp/archive.php?sessi... . MusicIp presentation begins 7:30 mins into the archive

actually 7:28 minutes, but take a look

all the presenters for Content Delivery Platforms - Music are here: http://onhollywood.goingon.com/?q=permalink/pos...

vendor presentations were "invite only" / pay your own way. interesting mix

hey yllona ;) how do you do?

dmppanda: tired. it's been a very long week :)

week-end is here :p

wolf / dmppanda: here's the obscurity challenge... got this album?

it's earth wind & fire + a very young dianne reeves + eddie del barrio arrangements. was marketed as jazz cross over on release. lots of airplay on R & B stations, and even (gasp) rock stations

lol :p

is this the art work? http://www.recordresearch.com/Album_Photos/page...

dmppanda: yep! that's it.

FM radio was really good "back in the day" ;)

oh and did mention that some of the members of weather report dropped in for the recording session

nooooooooooo :D

really these guys went in every s..errrrrrrr place :D

get this album. it's good. EWF had a long standing relationship with weather report / milton nascimento

dmppanda: i enjoy your company too :P

I think I'm living on just a bad preconcieved opinion about EWF - like, the one I got when I was a kid: "It's old pop stuff, it sucks" - I'll come to it :p

same with Weather Report. I lived too long with my childish extremist posture :p

Cecil Taylor or die for the breakfast :)

EWF started as a jazz band, a very good one. get the releases from the late '60s early seventies ... nothing after '78

heyhey, late 70's are... full of surprises! Oh! Surely you known the (in)famous Pointer Sisters?

dmppanda: loved them, sadly some of their early releases are out of print. before teh pop stuff.

i *love* this track. EWF + weather report

teh late, great charles stepney producing / arranging

yeah, but the site is historicalyl accurate. stepney was notoriously "media shy"

*historically, sorry

obviously well documented

yep. very good work here. this guy knows his liner notes :)

speaking of weather report... I was wondering in what shape were actually Wayne Shorter, so Herbie Hancock et al?

wayne shorter i elderly, but still kicking ass live and in the studio. herbie is still going strong, topped the charts on his last release

pls keep in mind that herbie was only 16 when he made his debut with miles davis

jaco died of overdose years ago. tony williams died of heart attack very young, couple of years back... at 51

Is Jackie McLean alive?

died recently

:/

so many gone :(

i think let me check

Left with Cecil Taylor :D

he's still hangin' :)

which by the way was in a killer form a few years ago

with some kind of Italian obscure troop

he plays in the US fairly often

i try not to. it's tough on the west coast. on the east coast i made every gig imagineable.

jackie mclean died march 31 this year.

erfmmmmm.... Waldron passed away a year or two ago also. Shame, I really fancied his later work.

jaki byard died under mysterious circumstances in '99.

Any young cat I (surely) don't know you would recommend for some fresh experience?

eric reed, marcus roberts, eric revis, jeff "tain" watts

roy hargrove

copy/pasted ;) [xcept Hargrove and Watts I know]

brad mehldau, don byron, greg osby, kenny garret, dave holland, robin eubanks, chris potter

basically work your way out from the m-base collective or the marsalis clan et. al.

Yeah, I loved one by Mehldau. Kenny Garret and Dave Holland didn't left me strong memorys but I'll get back there

*clan, et. al

think I'll go burn a few bucks today :p

ravi coltrane, but he's not as talented as either of his parents :(

nop :/

Got to go (almost 7h). Thanks a lot for the company yllona :). See ya soon

dmppanda: g'night

Nyght, nikki_ (aslept I assume) : good nyght

good night dmppanda

rest well

night dmppanda

nechto13: ;)

a little james p. johnson to send you on your way :)

Nyght, did you get a response to the second mail?

I sure did and that's the correct track listing

whee \o/

thanks a bunch :)

You're welcome a bunch. :) glad they were so responsive!

can someone give me a link to an artist consisting of 3 or more collab artists? all have to be person's though. yllona: you've added those, right?

nechto13: let me think i'm pretty much brain dead tonight, sorry

yep, me too. gotta appreciate a band that takes time to answer the questions of a couple of nitpickers

i think most of mine were "members of" or "performed as guest"

Yep, and so quickly. That's I think what impressed me the most. :)

I gave them a link to see their band page. Who knows if they'll look, but.. it could be fun if they do. :D

yeah :)

many, many artists are responsive if you ask an intelligent question, and are polite

So far I agree yllona, but as myspace has gotten bigger, some of those artists aren't as quick to respond, if ever.

unless there's something to click your "name/face" in with them, then it's a bit different

many of the the "artists" don't create / operate the myspace band pages, it's filtered by the artist management company / record label. and the artists tehmselves might be on the road / touring

sony has been experimenting with myspace for acouple of years now... so had BMG

*has BMG

even the more succesful "indie" artists have handlers.

seriously though, the disintermediation is necesssary on myspace as the security model is very poor.

* security / privacy / age authentication

yllona: I'm dealing with slightly "smaller" bands than most people.. but, yes, some of them have started to be monitored by management. :( (Still liked when Klayton did his own page)

I agree yllona, very much so on their lack of "secure" aspects.

nyght: it had to be. myspace screwed the pooch on security

yep

and the artists that do still handle their own spaces.. are bold

noone wants a 13 year old girl showing up at the back stage door ;)

or very small

LOL no doubt!

that's why there's people at the front carding!

:D

Nyght: for The Music Behind The Magic disc set, how come you decided on using Volume instead of disc?

if there is no particular reason, would you mind if i formatted it according to box set style guideline?

let me look into my mods

oh, they were purchased singly, they aren't a boxed set

Or... no, okay, now I have to find disc 1 and 1
