Thanks. I’ll have a listen to that. Their recordings seem hard to come by. Couldn’t find a download and there’s only 1 import album on Amazon, and it’s £50.

I was listening to Eric Dolphy’s 'Out To Lunch' just now and looked the bassist up ....

Horace Silver with Blue Mitchell, Junior Cook, Gene Taylor & Roy Brooks
‘Silver's Serenade’

The %^&£$@ (if I may correct your spelling) image can be included if you click on the little picture of a tree in a frame in the panel above the text you type, Rcartes (third from the left) and copy the URL into the space that then appears.


(If you've already tried this and it didn't work, then nefarious influences of which I am unaware are at work!)

Ferneyhough, I have tried that, but every time I do it comes up with a red circle with an explanation mark which, I assume, means it doesn't like my image. It can't be that the size is too big because I've experimented with that, so I don't know what's happening.

And yet, when I come back to the posting, there's the image after all, when I'd just posted a URL. Eh?

There are threads on this problem from time to time.
Believe this is the latest:

Ah, that does it, thank you for the explanation, Oddball. I've used Photobucket often, I didn't realise that the direct load function was disabled!

Anyway, that sorted, I wonder what people feel about rhythm sections (and my choice of the 1st Herd one as the greatest). Or maybe I should start a separate thread on this - in fact, I will.
