Bebop at Noon(repeated)

[Serial_Apologist]

Has Ellington ever had a week to himself on Composer of the Week?

Yes

[Pilchardman]

Yes

Good. He's not in the Podcast list, though.

[aka Calum Da Jazbo]

we could have a cool school cotw too: Evans (G) Lewis (J) Mulligan (G) Giuffre (J) Rogers Shorty etc ....

in desperation at the Walton fest on cdr put on bets of mulligan baker ...you listened to Freeway?

Presumably that would be a future Composer of the Week, though. One dealing with Bebop does have to feature Bird.

Yes you are correct of course. But listening to the COTW again, and it probably says more about me than Bebop, but I found the only work which excited any real interest was Ornette Coleman's Rambling (if I recall the title correctly). Bebop is history - but living history.
