| Jazz for aficionados Thank you Frogman for that huge contribution; when I finish with Richard Wyands, I'll focus on Paul Chambers. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Frogman throws a tomahawk, and he has no idea of why the response in kind when it comes back.Rok, how many times have we seen this scenario? | |
| Jazz for aficionados Before I was so rudely distracted, I was discussing sidemen; Richard Wyands was the one I had chosen; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_WyandsI have him on various albums that I was unaware of his contributions; Etta Jones, "Don't Go To... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Alex, I found the 45 rpm sessions, but I don't recall playing them; that will be corrected. Believe it or not, the only album I don't have is the one with singer "Dodo Green". | |
| Jazz for aficionados This thread was going too good for you, so you had to set up a political fight; "Choose me or Orpheus". You have done this so many times in the past; are you bored? What’s the end game? | |

| Jazz for aficionados This thread is going better than it ever has gone; we have acquired connoisseurs of this music who are at that advanced stage where they evaluate the sidemen on the greatest jazz records. Sidemen were the artists who contributed to those great re... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Frogman, since you recommended it, I will get it if I don't have it.Thank you much. | |
| Jazz for aficionados pjw, I want to thank you for that very informative link; it's just the kind of information I'm looking for. | |
| Jazz for aficionados nsp, is this something similar to what you were talking about? This is different from any Mingus I've heard; Jaki Byard on piano makes it so. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kilr601kki0 | |
| Jazz for aficionados Absolutely nsp; listen to that piano opening by Richard Wyands, it's boss, so is his comping all the way through the jam. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLKVsMuYoZA | |
| Jazz for aficionados Pryso, that's exactly what I'm talking about; I don't have it, but I will get it. |
