  • The Twenty Greatest Music Concerts I've Ever Seen
    THE TWENTY GREATEST MUSIC CONCERTS I'VE EVER SEEN Whew, I'm done. Let me remind everyone how this worked. I would go through my Ipod in that weird Ipod alphabetical order and when I would come upon an artist that I have seen live, I would replay that concert in my head. (BTW, since this segment started I no longer even have an ipod. All my music is on my laptop and phone now.) The number you see at the end of the concert description is the number of times I have seen that artist live. If it was multiple times, I would do my best to describe the one concert that I considered to be their best. If no number appears, it means I only saw that artist once. Mind you, I have seen many artists live that I do not have a song by on my Ipod. That artist is not represented here. So although the final number of concerts I have seen came to 828 concerts (wow, 828!), the number is actually higher. And there are "bar" bands and artists (like LeCompt and Sam Butera, for example) where I have seen them perform hundreds of sets, but I counted those as "one," although I have seen Lecompt in "concert" also. Any show you see with the four stars (****) means they came damn close to being one of the Top Twenty, but they fell just short. So here's the Twenty. Enjoy and thanks so much for all of your input. And don't sue me if I have a date wrong here and there.

  • Lee Morgan Chronology 1956–1972 by Jeffery S
    Delightfulee Jeffrey S. McMillan University of Michigan Press Lee Morgan Chronology 1956–1972 By Jeffery S. McMillan This is an annotated listing of all known Lee Morgan performances and all recordings (studio, live performances, broadcasts, telecasts, and interviews). The titles of studio recordings are given in bold and preceded by the name of the session leader. Recordings that appear to be lost are prefaced with a single asterisk in parentheses: (*). Recordings that have been commercially issued have two asterisks: **. Recordings that exist on tape but have never been commercially released have two asterisks in parentheses: (**). Any video footage known to survive is prefaced with three asterisks: ***. Video footage that was recorded but appears to now be lost is prefaced with three asterisks in parentheses: (***). On numerous occasions at Slugs’ Saloon in Manhattan, recording devices were set up on the stage and recorded Morgan’s performances without objection from the trumpeter. So far, none of these recordings have come to light. The information herein is a collation of data from newspapers, periodicals, published and personal interviews, discographies, programs, pamphlets, and other chronologies of other artists. Morgan’s performances were rarely advertised in most mainstream papers, so I drew valuable information primarily from African-American newspapers and jazz periodicals, which regularly carried ads for nightclubs and concerts. Entertainment and nightlife columnists in the black press, such as “Woody” McBride, Masco Young, Roland Marsh, Jesse Walker, Art Peters, and Del Shields, provided critical information, often verifying the personnel of an engagement or whether an advertised appearance occurred or was cancelled. Newspapers that I used include the Baltimore Afro-American (BAA), Cleveland Call & Post (C&P), Chicago Defender (CD), New Jersey Afro-American (NJAA), New York Amsterdam News (NYAN), Philadelphia Tribune (PT), and Pittsburgh Courier (PC).

  • University of Pennsylvania, Perelman Quadrangle
    VSBA THE PERELMAN QUADRANGLE, UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA Architects: Venturi, Scott Brown and Associates, Inc. Location: Philadelphia, PA Client: University of Pennsylvania Area: 257,000 gsf (building); 26,000 gsf (exterior paved areas) Construction Cost: $67,500,000 Completion: 2000 In choosing the University of Pennsylvania’s historic heart as the site of the Perelman Quadrangle student center, the University has restored and adapted its most prominent, loved, and remembered historic buildings to form a student precinct around the original student union. The plan evolved from a series of master planning and building feasibility studies VSBA conducted for the University from 1988 to 1994. In the late 19th-century, the University of Pennsylvania’s Houston Hall was the nation’s first student union. Built adjacent to College Hall (the campus’s first building), Logan Hall, and Irvine Auditorium, and across from dormitories on Spruce Street, Houston Hall complemented the academic, administrative, and residential functions of the University. As Penn expanded, this student-centered coherence was lost. The Perelman Quadrangle expands the original functions of Houston Hall across Wynn Commons into parts of the surrounding College, Logan, and Williams Halls and Irvine Auditorium. In the process, each is preserved, adapted, and reestablished to the importance it once held on an augmented and replenished Quadrangle. The central Wynn Commons, lined by Collegiate Gothic and High Victorian buildings enriched with shade trees, seating, rostrums, and heraldry, once again forms a memorable image of the University. Wynn Commons’ design provides a unifying sense of arrival, place, and enclosure. Gateway markers announce a transition into the Quadrangle within the historic fabric of the campus.
