  6. Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers, Drum Suite, 1957 on Columbia

    Art Blakey is joined here (at least on the A-side) by Cuban drummers Candido and Sabu, with Ray Bryant, Oscar Pettiford, and Charles Wright. On the B side, Jackie McLean, Spanky DeBrest, Sam Dockery, and Bill Hardman join as the Jazz Messengers.

    My copy—via private sale—is a 1950s Columbia Hollywood plant pressing with the 6-eye label. The artist is credited as “The Art Blakey Percussion Ensemble” on both labels but the cover credits the B side to the Jazz Messengers.

    “The Chiribiquete are table top mountains located deep in the Colombian Amazon and host many rare endemic species. Helanlin Xiang's work shows that the Chiribiquete Mountains likely upifted before the Early Miocene and could have acted as a long-lived stepping stone, connecting species in the Andes with the Guyana Shield…”

  8. Public Enemy, Yo! Bum Rush the Show, 1987 on Def Jam

    Debut studio album from Public Enemy, recorded at Spectrum City Studios and produced by Bill Stephney (of The Bomb Squad, with co-producers Carl Ryder and Hank Shocklee) with Rick Rubin credited as Executive Producer.

    Still looking for a good vinyl copy of It Takes a Nation of Millions. Def Jam was distributed by CBS/Columbia (thus the Columbia on the labels).

    My copy, via the Worcester Record Riot, is a 1987 Carrollton GA pressing with the BFC catalog number on the spine.

  9. Billy Joel, An Innocent Man, 1983 on Columbia / Family Productions

    Billy Joel’s ninth studio LP, with the title track, “Uptown Girl,” and “The Longest Time” as big hits. Toots Thielemans joins on harmonica on “Leave a Tender Moment Alone.”

    Some people might put Billy Joel in the “guilty pleasures” column – I probably did in 1983 – but I’ve really come to appreciate him. Guess I’m getting old.

    My copy—via A1 Records in NYC—is a 1983 Carrollton US pressing with the original printed inner sleeve.

  10. If you enjoy two voice in intricate harmonies accompanied by two guitars, then you’re in for a treat. These two Columbian ladies, each legendary performers in their own right, sing and play so well together. And yes, Katie James is Columbian, though born in Ireland to an Irish father and an English mother. Her family emigrated to Columbia to establish an Anglo-Irish eco commune when she was only two. #Music #MusicVideo #duet #harmony #EnEspanol #Columbia

  11. Bob Dylan, Oh Mercy, 1989 on Columbia

    Dylan’s 26th studio album, produced by Daniel Lanois and recorded in New Orleans. “Political World,” “Where Teardrops Fall,” and “Everything is Broken” make a great opening trio on side 1 – but really a great album overall.

    My copy—via Waterloo Records in Austin TX—is a Carrollton GA pressing with original inner sleeve from 1989.

  17. As the Trump administration’s effort to deport #Mahmoud #Khalil sparks legal battles and demonstrations,
    #Columbia #University announced Thursday that it has
    👉revoked degrees from some other pro-Palestinian campus protesters.
    A campuswide email reported by The Associated Press says that “the Columbia University Judicial Board determined findings and issued sanctions to students
    ranging from multiyear suspensions, temporary degree revocations, and expulsions related to the occupation of Hamilton Hall last spring.”

    To the current student protestors, you are continuing #Columbia tradition, and I am proud of CU #students for sparking a nationwide movement. (The occupation of #HamiltonHall also harkens back to '68, when students seized control of the building to #protest the Vietnam War and the proposal of a gymnasium in Morningside Park with separate entrances for students vs. the #community. The spirit lives on indeed.)

  19. #wckr #columbia #protestor interview

    After the protestors used tools to barricade themselves in
    #HamiltonHall they intentionally left all tools in a hardware room so that there would be no misconception about them being armed.

    They sat in a row and waited, disoriented and passively after the flash bang bombs #nypd used.

    The protestors were kicked and brutalized by police as they were arrested.

    Definitely need to see the full video

    #columbiauniversity Shafik found this behavior professional

  20. The sputtering 18-hour barricade-aided takeover of Columbia University by Hamas supporters ended last night faster than Humpty Dumpty falling off the wall; of course, the occupier’s task failed successfully only after being rightly pushed from the second story ledge of Hamilton Hall by NYPD riot officers. As a graduate of Columbia University, I was chagrined for the students who occupied Hamilton, and who are now about to learn the hard way why — the university does not not belong to the student — and those failed occupiers can now successfully weep into their expulsion letters.

    If you know anything about the history of protest on campus at Columbia University — especially the 1968 riots — you know this 2024 protest was nowhere near the urgency or human need of the preceding protests. The ’68 riot was about the Vietnam War, Columbia taking over the neighborhood of Morningside Heights by removing minorities from their homes to build student housing and a new gymnasium, and fighting racism on campus.

    The 1932 Columbia Strike was about the unfair treatment and expulsion of a student journalist who had criticized the university in the student-run newspaper.

    In those two examples, something was directly wrong on the actual Columbia campus, and the protests, and the subsequent actions, were answers to those direct inequities.

    Yesterday’s 2024 takeover was vaguely about military defense investment, an end to the Gaza war — a war that was started by Hamas — and amnesty for the students who were protesting. In short, nothing of direct value, or urgency, to the campus was at stake. Sure, you can protest in the faraway abstract, but the ramifications of that behavior will be specifically local, directly inflicted, and painfully inescapable.

    The 2024 Columbia failures were shared all around. The tent encampments never should have been allowed by university leaders to interfere with daily learning and the students should not have been so bored with their lives that they allowed their futures to be duped into following disinterested activists and disgruntled students who actively advocated for the end of Israel and Jews. Did any of the students even bother to learn the real meaning of “From the River to the Sea?”

    As a Columbia University grad, the takeover of Hamilton Hall was a fatal move. Now who are the occupiers? Now who are the terrorists? The 1968 riots had a purpose and an intention. The idea of this new, rude, foolishness is just to punish Israel and Jews. https://t.co/Mokpj6MwRt

    Because of all those dramatic errors in judgment, nobody was safe on campus and that’s why the police action should’ve happened sooner to avoid the takeover of Hamilton and the ongoing disruption of study during reading week.

    Watching the NYPD take action last night — streamed on live television — was a fascinating experience. There was no pushback from the occupiers. Witnessing all the handcuffed occupiers being perp walked through the campus gates to get on the NYPD bus for booking was just sad. There was no real reason or actual passion behind any of it. The whole sit-in episode from beginning to end was performative, unreal, dull, and unbelievable.

    Now we must ask if the whole, hysterical, episode was worth it?

    I doubt the student occupiers will think so in a few weeks when the reality of their behavior sets in to the new discomfort of their lives.

    That said, if you believe in something, stand up for it, use your real name, don’t cover your face and hide! Own your behavior. Your actions matter. Now with their arrest mugshots in the public record – the occupier’s only tangible proof of their failed coup – their behavior, and arrest, will rightly follow them like a shadow of tar for the rest of their lives.

    The occupiers were not helped by the media, or some of the Columbia faculty, or activist politicians like, disappointingly, AOC and the rest of “the squad.” The media require attention, and covering the occupiers was great for live television but an awful outcome for those caught protesting for nothing.

    Some of the Columbia faculty should be ashamed of their compliance with the Hamas campus occupiers. Some faculty did not feel the need to protect all students — especially Jewish students — and one faculty member said on live television last night that the university should have “continued to entertain” the outrageous demands of the students in a never-ending dialogue and, they added, that the NYPD re-taking Hamilton Hall from the occupiers was not necessary because Hamilton hadn’t “even been taken over for 24-hours.” No university needs that sort of ridiculously woke faculty so disengaged from the reality of the world spinning around them.

    Students often don’t know what they need to know. That’s why they attend a university. It is the duty and the obligation of the university to educate all students in all the ways in which they do not believe they need understanding, leadership or correction; and the fallow lesson of the failed 2024 coup of Columbia University is that too many students were too easily fooled by the cause of an idea rather than by the consequences of their actions. Bad behavior leads to bad reactions, and perhaps that’s the most valuable lesson soon to be learned.

  21. Hamilton Hall was raided by the pigs on April 30th, 1968, a Tuesday. The students stood for justice against racial violence and the imperialist war in Vietnam. Now, on April 30th, 2024, a Tuesday, Hamilton Hall has once again been raided by the pigs, ordered to suppress resistance from students who are standing against imperialist genocide, here and now.

  23. The students, who are calling for divestment, took over a building and are barricaded inside, in response to suspensions handed out against some of the encampment protestors for exercising their speech to bring attention to their university's complicity.

    Solidarity with the citizen youth. They will need help. I posted the campus bail fund link yesterday and am doing so again.

    Let's focus now on their safety, even though I know they are more concerned with the safety of millions of people across an ocean. These are the type of youth we want running the nation some day, not brutalized and thrown in prison.
