Blog Kiosk: 11/8/2009

A congratulations to Luc Robitaille on his induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame this coming Monday. "On the lighter side, the good thing about me is I never had a step (quick move up ice), so I never lost it," he said. "That's why, maybe, I was able to play 19 years." Here is a great photo of a very young Jerry Doggett and Vin Scully, via If Charlie Parker was a Gunslinger...

Review: Gilad Atzmon

Review: Gilad Atzmon (Cadogan Hall, Friday November 6th 2009) Gilad Atzmon 's Cadogan Hall concert was based around his album " In Loving Memory of America. " But the complete Atzmon package contains, in addition to the music, his particular blend of lively entertainment and provocation. First, though, the music.

Max Roach and Archie Shepp: The Long March

Bebop was considered a radical departure for jazz music during its formation in the 1940s and 1950s, pioneered by drummer {{Max Roach = 10725}}, {{Charlie Parker = 10115}} and {{Dizzy Gillespie = 7040}} among others. Coupled with tenor saxophonist {{Archie Shepp = 4266}}'s 1960s avant-garde jazz proclivities, the artists respectively helped procure a prismatic and non-traditional perspective on the...

A Tribute To The Man Who Did The Mouse

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 and Strings - The Sage, Gateshead.

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.

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.

A Moment in Facebook

Just a Rundown facebook activity .. or shall i say the facebook activity on my page.. Along with some other stuff.. Random Status Update Zion Archive Computer : In the beginning, there was man.
