Duke Pearson, Pepper Adams and Donald Byrd in the frontline. A favorite.
OUT NOW: Donald Byrd “At The Half Note Café, Vol. 2” Tone Poet Vinyl Edition store.bluenote.com/products/don...

In November 1960, the trumpeter brought his quintet into the Half Note Café in NYC to record this soulful, swinging & highly enjoyable live set of hard bop.

Sidney Lumet’s Serpico is 52.
Pacino asked Frank Serpico why he fought police corruption & didn’t just take the bribe money & give it to charity & just get on with his work:
‘He looked at me and said ‘Al, if I’d done that, who would I have been when I listened to Beethoven?’

I wholeheartedly recommend this documentary. Plenty of original testimonies and footage from the time Dexter Gordon and Ben Webster spent at Denmark. Now I can say I’ve been at the Montmartre! A bygone era. Very moving.

Still rocks me that Looney Tunes did a better job of handling this history than 99% of politicians, textbooks, and media

I think French cinema of the 50s and 60s has done some kind of Manchurian Candidate thing to me where the mere sight of a Cinzano ashtray makes me want to sack it all in and drink and smoke outside a café all day.

It’s mysterious why Pearl Charles’s retro-country-soul hasn’t made her a huge star. She has the songs and is fantastic live.

Growing up in Liverpool my memory is that the Beatles were effectively consigned to history from 1973 (release of the Red and the Blue) and the opening of The Beatles Shop on Mathew Street in 1984. This was helped by Eric's (no Beatles records played) and Probe (no Beatles records sold).
