ha! if you haven’t yet, listen to her billy strayhorn album, the one that totally sold me on her.i’m a bit out of the loop, but when i think overlooked i think melba liston or emily remler.

it all depends on whose household. jazz fans embraced her as an icon (excuse the expression). she performed in big halls. those unfamiliar with her were probably out there with betty carter, mary lou williams and abbey lincoln as well.

tonite!

i confused birds!

is that the same as a red-bellied sapsucker?

wow, first time? can’t remember (natch), but i think i reviewed it. thought it was beckett-like!

jeez, no memory of that. used to be we went thru all of them as kids and that was that (mumps was my bad one). g-d help us now.

it’s really good. juliet stevenson narrates and she really has a feel for rhythm and tone

just listened to TOV; read it the old fashioned way years ago

did you see the doc on them with scorsese?
