Hey everybody, I am happy to announce here/anywhere for the first time: The great STEINSKI has produced a new hour-long radio show and it will be airing here on the Drummer Stream at 3pm on October 10. (As old WFMU colleague Laura Cantrell would say) Mark it in your mind...
More for Carmichael's quest: recordings published by TM Music, Inc., (the co. on the acetate label) during the '60s: http://www.discogs.com/label/352176-T-M-Music-Inc
This features a tune by Arthur Resnik, who is credited with DTB: http://www.discogs.com/viewimages?release=5631725
Pub'd by TM Music, the label address is 1650 Broadway. The address on the acetate is 1619 Broadway. 1619 is the Brill Bldg., 1650 is across the street, next to Iridium.
@northguineahills: sweet. Haven't been to that venue yet. Wanted to see Mount Eerie there but missed it. Did see Threadgill conducting the Society Situation Dance Band last night, though, so there's that.
Here is kind of a weird observation: Arthur Blythe has always played with such a wildly oscillating vibrato. Sort of the way one could imagine a sax player with Parkinson's might sound.
The odd thing, was that I was at the Bunker techno party at the same venue the night before for a belated bachelor party. Odd how a venue can be so different w/in 14 hours of each other.
I have always blamed Columbia Records for the dropping of "Black" from Blythe's nom de stage "Black Arthur Blythe." I have absolutely no knowledge of any major-label pressure on the radicalisation of the name, and yet I assign blame unreservedly.
Didn't Blythe also record "In the Tradition" for Columbia? Amiri Baraka wrote a poem called "In the Tradition: For Black Arthur Blythe." That poem was released on the India Navigation LP "New Music—New Poetry" featuring David Murray and Steve McCall backing up Baraka's recitation. Here: www.discogs.com...
Last bit about "Destroy that Boy," I swear, and this might be of interest to others here. HathiTrust has scans of the Copyright Office catalogs. The entry for DtB is here: http://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=mdp.39015085477456;view=1up;seq=316
On the same page: "I'm Gonna Tear Him a New One," words & music by Bud Isaacs. Never heard it.
Hi Jeff and drummers, I'm realizing how to control my music playing fever with the restless legs syndrome, and being more able to keep steady rythms .. good news
@Jeff: Just came to my mind: Air can be understood as an earlier version of Trio X. Both bands feature stellar players and are devoted to recreating or working with traditional blues music in a new jazz spirit. And both are good as hell.
I don't know, but I guess those sort of things weren't the most usual in the 70s NY jazz scene.
Slightly late in the day (I have only just come in) -- a sax player with Parkinson's describes Barbara Thompson, who made a memorable TV feature on her condition with Jon Hiseman.
Are we all Royals tomorrow night? (KC a jazz city, right?).

John in England:
I mentioned it because she has the form of Parkinson's that makes you freeze up rather than shake (something I didn't know about). Assumptions about vibrato can be wide of the mark.
@John in England
In case you were wondering, I was making no assumption that Blythe's vibrato was due to Parkinson's. I am aware of the timeline and have been enjoying AB's particular sound long before his current diagnosis.
Interesting note about the "freezing" variety of Parkinson's. Never heard of that.

The *only* thing that could have improved the Threadgill event was if HT himself got up and played.

I don't know, but I guess those sort of things weren't the most usual in the 70s NY jazz scene.
Jeff Golick:
One of the main points (subterranean, mostly) of D:O, when it was an active site, was the continuity between New Thing (etc.) and Old Things.
