[QUOTE=Sidney]Could our own Jazz Maestro, Doggboy, recommend some good sessions?[/QUOTE]OK then. Check out:

YMMV of course. My picks would be Randy Weston with Billy Harper tonight at the Coliseo Theatre. Harper plays with his own band tomorrow at the National Library. I don't know much about many of the musicians featured. Most are not from the states. There could be some great performers but I have no idea.
I do have two film picks for you hard core jazz fans. Two films. "Lift to the Scaffold" a 1958 film from Louis Malle with a great Miles Davis soundtrack. I have that soundtrack CD and have employed it often in the past for background music to soulfull fucking.;) The movie itself is probably mediocre, but the music fantastic. The other film is a recent documentary on the iconic singer Anita O' Day. Maybe the best white chick jazz singer of all time with a long history of drinkin', druggin' and breaking all the taboos. Quite a dame. Both of those films on Friday at the Recoleta Cultural Center.

Hey Dogg.
Didn't know you were a jazz fan.
I like old movies.
Wasn't Sidney Poitier, Dihann Caroll, Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward in some movie about these guys being jazz musicians. Living in Paris, meeting the chicas. Etc?
Best Regards.

Smuler[/QUOTE]Hi Smuler,
That sounds familiar but I don't remember that flick. You know that Poitier is Sidney's half brother, right? I am a fan of old movies as well. BUT, we are off topic! Jackson may want to send these comments to "Dogg's Jazz Musings" in the Chit Chat section.
