I'd like to meet:Everyone and anyone that loves Bebop...somehow I am caught in a musical time-warp based on the great American Song Book and the tunes of Cole Porter, Johnny Mercer, Rogers & Hart, George Gershwin, Arthur Schwartz, Leonard Bernstein, Stephen Sondheim, Eddie "Clean Head" Vinson, Jimmy Van Heuson and Duke Ellington "Mood Indigo," - "The "A" Train" - "Black Satin Doll," and how they were interpreted...by the Big Bands - and "captured" - by the likes of Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Miles Davis, Stan Getz, Zoot Sims, Al Cohn, and of course AL HAIG - into the trio, quartet and quintet format - allowing the repetition of the melody to become the escape - as the mental curtain parted on everyone listening, the musician's individuality jump started, ignited and, their talented "touch," created a "dream" - each night an episode, as they welcomed their "solo" - allowing their soul, their spirit to musically strut, say "hello" and maybe, just maybe, linger awhile, before they would disappear, right before your "ears" - like a smoke ring, into the waiting air.Al Haig, Stan Getz & Tommy Potter - Birdland 1949 Photo by Herman Leonard Miles Davis & Al Haig Stan Getz/John Coltrane - RIFFTIDE - 1960 The young Stan Getz with Woody Herman Desafinado Wave Sippin' at Bells - Getz/Baker 1983 |

"You've got to rattle your cage door. You've got to let them know that you're in there, and that you want out. Make noise. Cause trouble. You may not win right away, but you'll sure have a lot more fun". ~Florynce Kennedy~ "I’m just a loud-mouthed middle-aged colored lady with a fused spine and three feet of intestines missing and a lot of people think I’m crazy. Maybe you do too, but I never stop to wonder why I’m not like other people. The mystery to me is why more people aren’t like me". ~Florynce Kennedy~ "Countermovements among racists and sexists and nazifiers are just as relentless as dirt on a coffee table. . . . Every housewife knows that if you don't sooner or later dust . . . the whole place will be dirty again". ~Florynce Kennedy~ "The biggest sin is sitting on your ass". ~Florynce Kennedy~ Lady Haig w/some of New York Cities FINEST! |
