hi, tim,
can you name the adresse of the site where you found the "jam at
christys 1949-1952" audio? than we can all check it out if it´s a new
and maybe unissued item. (i don´t think so) because symphony sid was
never broadcasting from a club called "christys". i think that this
are well known recordings from various dates and clubs (royal roost,
birdland, hi-hat).
btw. bird´s eyes is up to volume 73 till now. you can drop mr. paolo
piangiarelli from philology a line and ask for details at
www.philologyjazz.it
thanks and keep boppin´
marcel
