hi Alphonse! how have you been? check out my new cd on: http://www.myspace.com/petracaramela
have fun!
PS tried to add you as friend on MySpace but it did not work..
take care! P
Thanks Alphonse.And yup, as a dad, I had an enjoyable Father's Day.
Just to say caught a clip of you with Weather Report along with Miroslav etc and indeed Jon Surman and Skid (Alan Skidmore) on flute - by far some of the best Brit players who had the sense to get out of the UK! Just fabuluous. As fresh now as was then. And streets ahead of much supposed 'new' stuff around now.
Plus there's definitely a buzz happening about the resurgence of such as RTF etc and what you oioneered. Certainly it's rubbed off on my band and as you know I'll always be grateful to you and Tony W Joe Wayne Miles et al. So much to be done now and really made the most of. Maybe one day we might yet share the same stage. Who knows? It'd be an honour!
Kindest
Peter
hello alphonse! how have you been? check out my few new songs on: http://www.myspace.com/petracaramela
my new cd is ready but longer songs versions still to come. lots of work but big fun! take care, P
Dear Alphonse, how's the great AM doing? Glad to see that 'fusion's' (although I hate labels but you know what I mean!) 'kinda' starting to come back into the consciousness. Still can't beat AM a' roarin' behind 'Mind Transplant' n' of course Larry Corryel's such a wonderful player. Was listening to Miles, 'Spanish Key' and was thinking how such as you Tony, Leon, Acuna, Billy, Eric, Buddy M et al made it all possible. Blessings and all power of the groove to you!
Was playing 'Mind Transplant' (the album) still one of my (and the band's) favorite albums. Sounds as fresh today as the day it was recorded and has remained a huge influence on me/us musically. And of course there's the wonderful (and tragic) Tommy Bolin. We've got a new young hugely gifted Italian guitarist with the band now, and he's been totally blown away by Tommy's playing. Who knows what else Tommy may have achieved. But the legacy remains. What's so important about such work is its sheer guts, fire and passion, essences SO badly lacking in much of jazz/rock now.
We hope to redress the balance.
Huge respect
Sincerely
Peter
Hi! Hello, again, Alphonse!
Thanks for the add here as well!! So nice to make friends with you!
We really should meet some day. I believe we can be good friends in real life, too. Your photos are all so cool! You must be proud of your children. Apparently, they've taken over lots of talents from you.

Thanks for hookin' me up man. Enjoying the tracks here!...Blessings from Canada. -mc
I'd love to follow you... ;-)
But actually I came to this site quite a while ago but never followed it much. So I thought I'd start. I noticed you were here too... just nice to see another friend. Your dog in the pic is so adorable. You've got some great pics up there.
We all wanna see....hope you had a great Thanksgiving, lots to be thankful for I'm sure! I like it when I see you around the network, I'm sure many do to!
Go look at the front page right under Will Downing. If you want to send me a pic of the family I'll put it there. We are very happy for your new "little jazz note" Mikayla...
We got a new baby in the family of jazz? Hold on, wait a minute, whaaaattttt? Congrats Grandpappy! Wow....how wonderful!! We need pics! You must be so elated. All the warmest wishes from all of us here in the Network Al...to Jean-Pierre and his lovely wife...and to our newest blessing....
The Jazz Network is exactly what the title suggests, a place where you get to mix and mingle with those who have not only an appreciation for Jazz but a forum to hear new up and coming artists as well. I've hooked up with so many of my old friends that I've lost contact with over the years here and it's been a great place to meet folk, appreciate good music and Musicianship. What an incredible idea!!

The great composer and bandleader was distraught over the 1967 death of Billy Strayhorn, his songwriting and arranging partner of 28 years. But Ellington took Strayhorn's passing as an impetus, born of necessity, to increase his own productivity. Here are five examples.
At the Village Vanguard, one flight down from the hubbub of New York City, in a tight space packed with people, we're about to embark on a musical odyssey by sea. Our captain is saxophonist Chris Potter, who's launching his Odyssey-inspired album The Sirens.
The two artists are known opposites in the world of instrumental music. On Metheny's latest, the jazz guitarist wrings an unexpectedly visual listening experience from Zorn's knotty compositions.
Divine: The Jazz Albums, 1954-1958 packs four CDs with Vaughan's music, recorded live or in the studio with bands big and small. Two live albums from Chicago nightclubs are standouts, partly when a performance threatens to slide off the rails.
