  4. Hey, citizens of the fediverse - I just wanted to remember the great Grover Washington, Jr. who left us this day, 25-years ago. Far too soon. Such a talent, such a nice, kind man.

    Just 5-days after celebrating his 56th birthday, Grover had a heart attack in the green room, after performing and recording four songs for “The Saturday Early Show”, at CBS Studios in New York City. He was pronounced dead at 7:30pm that day, December 17th, 1999, St. Luke’s-Roosevelt Hospital in New York City.

    He was still working in a department store when his first

  5. On This Day: Sold Not Sold!

    On November 4th, 1985, an auction to sell CTI’s master tapes was scheduled. CBS Records initially forced the sale to recover a debt but opted to reissue the recordings on CDs instead, generating significant revenue. Subsequently, Creed Taylor, Inc. filed lawsuits alleging CBS sabotaged them, but these claims were rejected. Today, Sony owns most CTI masters after acquiring CBS Re

  6. On This Day: “If Jazz Is Dead…”

    A while back I received a question from a reader that asked - Listening to the “Live at the Hollywood Bowl” CTI Summer Jazz series and I’m curious who the man is at the beginning who says “If jazz is dead, this is the biggest funeral I have ever seen.”

    I had meant to answer it straight away, since I knew it was jazz journalist, musician Leonard Feather,

  9. I've been quiet for the last few weeks as I've been working on the first stage of getting my vinyl organized.

    I acquired my vinyl collection in many countries, cities and stages of my life over the last 50-years. It's been in the same house for the last 6-years but in different rooms and places.

    Stage-1 of the re-org now done. I've listed over 500 records for sale on discogs, to be honest most are house music 12" singles. There are about 60 left to list, but they came from a box in a storage basement in a very old building and need to be test played before listing.

    Next up is to re-organize my main storage shelves, especially all my #ctirecords #kudu #verve #impulse and other treasured pressings.

    If you know anyone who likes #housemusic or is a #housemusiclovers including hard-house and trance mostly from the 2000's and also many that are the only copies that are for sale in the #USA go here > discogs.com/seller/4MC/profile

  13. Nach einem kurzen Besuch von Bobby, dem #Kudu, nahmen wir schweren Herzens Abschied von Bagatelle und machten uns auf den Weg Richtung Helmeringhausen.

    Bobby sagt auf Wiedersehen

    Etwa 300km staubige Schotterstraße mit Abwechslungsreicher Szenerie erwarteten uns.

    Etappe 2

    Unser Ziel war die Farm von Anna und Darren. Die beiden sind grade dabei ihre Existenz aufzubauen und verdienen sich mit der Vermietung von Zimmern ein Zubrot. Mit 4 Hunden, einer handvoll Katzen und etwa einem Dutzend Pferden war ordentlich was los.

    Eine der Katzen, besonders verschmust

    Zur Begrüßung gab es eine riesige köstliche Wassermelone aus eigenem Anbau.

    Zum Abendessen hatten wir uns ein traditionelles Braai gewünscht. Zu Deutsch: es wurde gegrillt: Wurst (Buurewurst) und Fleisch aus eigener Herstellung. Lecker, lecker.

    Hier gibt’s lekker Braai

This live broadcast set includes early collaboration with bassist Charles Fambrough.

  16. Credited for being the reason the NYC DJ Record Pools were created, co-author of #IdrisMuhammad "Could Heaven Ever Be Like This" - Still trying to track down what happened to Tony (Anthony) Sarafino. Note Sara, not Serafino

    I'd really like to complete an important story that includes Tony, plus he deserves some recognition for some great work.

    I have my own guess, but that's not enough to publish. #CTIrecords #kudu pls share.

  17. Remembering Esther Phillips

    December 23rd marks the anniversary of Esther Phillips born day, Esther was born on this day in 1935. She'd have been 88-years old this year, but sadly died just 48-years old, in 1984. I was able to talk to Tim Hinkley earlier in 2023. Tim, a fellow ex-pat Brit' had some great memories of working with Esther on her 1973 "Black Eyed Blues" album, and well as much later in the

  18. Turns out the English only recognize one kudu but the French, with their sophisticated ways and their sensitive souls, distinguish between the grand koudou and the petit koudou. I feel like I'm missing out.
