Hullo Captain. That’s me, Teik Yean, from Singapore. We were in Fred’s shop in September. Like you, I’m a fan of Sam Records. So very nice of you to remember. Enjoy your records in good health!
Hello, I’m a french fan of your TH-cam channel. For your informations, Christian Vander is a famous french musician. He is the co-founder of MAGMA, a prog rock and jazz band. He is the drummer but plays piano as well
Thanks for the information of Christian Vander, Stéphane. I’m not very familiar with the French jazz scene but can see that Christian Vander has been very active and also started a record label (among many other initiatives). Take care.
According to the Encyclopedia of Jazz, Waldron was born 16 August 1926 and was originally an alto saxophonist; switched to piano and worked around NY with the groups of Big Nick Nicholas, Ike Quebec '49-'53. In April '57 he started as accompanist to Billie Holiday, touring France and Italy November '58 and London February '59. His favorites, circa '60, were Bud Powell, Monk and Herbie Nichols. You've got a great channel.
Thanks for your kind word and the information about Mal Waldron. There seems to be some confusion about his exact birthday/-year. I got my info from Wikipedia, which is often (but not always) correct.
Thank you for your review. I really enjoy Mal Waldron and looking forward to buying the LP. Also value Sam Records releases.
Thanks, Captain. I love the Jazz music of Mal Waldron. Best regards from Madrid, Spain.
(Very good work of Sam Records, as ever)
Thank you. I enjoy when you have a conversation with Fred.
Thanks - yes even though Fred is a busy man, he alway have time to talk (to me and other customers).
Great information, thanks.
