Ray i Faye Copeland to najstarsi seryjni mordercy (69 i 76 lat) skazani na karę śmierci w Stanach Zjednoczonych. W latach 80. na swojej farmie Mooresville w Missouri zamordowali co najmniej pięciu zatrudnionych przez siebie mężczyzn, choć rzeczywista liczba ofiar mogła wynosić nawet dwanaście. Gdy śledczy przybyli, by przeszukać farmę, Ray Copeland powiedział do nich: „U mnie nic nie znajdziecie”. Jednak mocno się pomylił.
Playlist Track Time Start Time Opening and Introduction (Thom Holmes) 11:57 00:00 1. Herbie Hancock, Herbie Hancock Demonstrates The Rhodes Piano (1973 Rhodes). A terrific flexi-disc produced by Rhodes and narrated by Hancock who tells an interesting story about his first encounter with the instrument on a Miles Davis session and then he walks the keyboard through a series of effects. He speaks with the authority of a proud electronics tinkerer who understands the nuances that make this instrument so beloved by jazz musicians. This flexi-disc was originally delivered in the November 8, 1973 issue of Down Beat magazine. I provide both sides of the disc, in entirety. Tunes included during the demonstration include parts of Watermelon Man, Maiden Voyage, and The Spook. Soloist, Rhodes Electric Piano, Voice, Herbie Hancock. I thought it would be wisest to lead off this podcast with an overview of the Rhodes even though it is out of chronological sequence, being from 1973. We then go back a few years to hear tracks in proper time order. 12:48 11:57 2. The Don Ellis Orchestra, “Open Beauty” from Electric Bath (1967 Columbia).

Miles Davis, “Stuff” from Miles In The Sky (1968 Columbia). I think this was Miles' first album recorded using the Fender Rhodes, played by Herbie Hancock. See the opening tracks from this podcast for a story about this session from Hancock. Bass, Ron Carter; Drums, Tony Williams; Piano, Fender Electric Piano, Herbie Hancock; Tenor Saxophone, Wayne Shorter; Trumpet, Miles Davis. 16:59 30:14 4. Joe Zawinul, “The Soul Of A Village (Part II)” from The Rise & Fall Of The Third Stream (1968 Vortex). Zawinul, along with Hancock, was an early adopter of the Fender Rhodes.

J & K “Mojave” from Betwixt & Between (1969 A&M, CTI). “J” is J.J. Johnson (trombonist) and “K” is Kai Winding (trombonist). Their ensemble included Roger Kellaway playing the electric clavinette. An example of using the clavinet in jazz. This was most likely a Hohner Clavinet Model C which had just been introduced in 1968. Recorded at Van Gelder Studios during late 1968. 2:31 53:54 7. Albert Ayler, “New Generation” from New Grass (1969 Impulse).

Sun Ra And His Intergalactic Research Arkestra, “Black Forest Myth” from It's After The End Of The World - Live At The Donaueschingen And Berlin Festivals (1971 MPS Records). You can hear Sun Ra enticing other-worldly sounds from a Farfisa organ beginning at about 1:35. Recorded in 1970.

Recorded at Ballon Theater, Cairo, Egypt December 17, 1971. Sun Ra playing several electronic keyboards in turn, the organ, Minimoog, and Rock-si-Chord. What I hear is some organ (Farfisa?) in the opening, then Sun Ra turns to a wild exchange between the Minimoog (monophonic) and Rock-Si-chord (polyphonic) during the second half of the track. Alto Saxophone, Congas, Larry Northington; Alto Saxophone, Flute, Danny Davis, Hakim Rahim; Alto Saxophone, Flute, Oboe, Marshall Allen; Baritone Saxophone, Pat Patrick; Baritone Saxophone, Flute, Danny Thompson; Bass Clarinet, Elo Omoe; Composed By, Arranged By, Piano, Organ, Minimoog, Rock-Si-Chord, Sun Ra; Engineer Recording Engineer, Tam Fiofori; Percussion, Lex Humphries, Tommy Hunter; Photography By, Sam Bankhead; Photography Liner Photo, Mike Evans; Producer, Infinity Inc.

The great jazz funk flutist Bobbi Humphrey released a series of albums around this time that often-featured fantastic synthesizer players. Here you can pick out the Minimoog by Don Preston and the ARP (Odyssey?) by Larry Mizell. The synths included here are in contrast to the more experimental sounds that Herbie Hancock was issuing at the same time. Flute, Vocals, Bobbi Humphrey; ARP Synthesizer, Larry Mizell; Minimoog, Don Preston; Bass, Chuck Rainey; Congas, King Errison; Drums, Harvey Mason; Electric Piano Fender Rhodes, Fonce Mizell, Larry Mizell; Guitar, John Rowin, Melvin "Wah Wah" Ragin; Percussion, Roger Sainte, Stephany Spruill; Piano, Jerry Peters; Produced by Chuck Davis, Larry Mizell; Trumpet, Fonce Mizell. 6:39 2:06:19 20.Ramsey Lewis, “Jungle Strut” from Sun Goddess (1974 Columbia).

RMI Harmonic Synthesizer, Clark Ferguson. 2:43 2:20:24 23. Fernando Gelbard, “Sombrero De Flores” from Didi (1974 Discos Redonde).

Producer, Engineer, Piano, Electric Piano, Moog, Oberheim, and the Freeman string synthesizer; digital sequencer, Drums, Percussion, Composed by, Jan Hammer. 4:29 2:32:26 26.Larry Young's Fuel, “Moonwalk” from Spaceball (1976 Arista).

Tonight's Jazz Feature is an important album by pianist/composer Thelonious Monk called "Monk's Music". It is a series of older Monk compositions with one new piece played by a larger group than Monk usually recorded with at that time. It was done in one evening on June 26,1957. Monk selected the band and it included Ray Copeland on trumpet, Gigi Gryce on alto saxophone, John Coltrane and Coleman Hawkins on tenor saxophones, Wilbur Ware on bass and Art Blakey on drums and of course Monk on piano. As an extra feature I'll play the results of the evening before which seemed lost as Monk was exhausted and had to go home. The evening was salvaged by the band agreeing to record a long 12 bar blues written by Gigi Gryce that was called "Blues for Tomorrow". The Monk album was fully completed the next night and is considered one of Monk's finest recording dates. "Monk's Music" is the Jazz Feature tonight....don't miss it!

We had the privilege to sit down with Rev. Nathan Burks and talk about what Modesty in Fitness means to him. Bro. Burks has an extensive background in the fitness industry, he has worked in the industry for many years, and his unique background helped shed light on a topic that can often be overlooked. The conversation branched off into many great topics concerning fitness, topics like: Should Christians be a part of this life? What does it mean for a man to stay modest while working out? How far can Christian men go in the industry before they lose parts of themselves? Rev. Nathan Burks is a full-time minister and evangelist based out of Porter Apostolic Pentecostal Church, he has been doing amazing work in the community and for the Pentecostal church as a whole.

"They say you can't do that while staying modest, you cant do HIIT workouts or CrossFit style movements and maintain modesty. I think I've proven them wrong, cause I do it every day and stay modest while I do it." - Sister Monica Cathey, fitness coach and Pastor's wife. We sat down with Sister Cathey and talked about modesty in fitness, and if it is really possible to stay modest while doing some intense workouts. We talked about how she got her start in fitness and how she lost weight after having 4 children. She spoke about how being a Christian doesn't mean you can't accomplish your fitness goals and how you can still maintain a Godly lifestyle while doing it.

Ray Copeland was the kind of man who lived by the rule, if you want it, take it. And he did. All the time. Known for stealing livestock in the early 60’s, he spent his time while incarcerated, coming up with new ways to forge checks and pilfer livestock—ways that meant someone would have to die. By the time his scheme was discovered, five men would be dead. And Ray and his wife Faye, aged 76 and 69, would both be sentenced to death. This is Ray and Faye Copeland.

Ray and Faye Copeland are known today as the oldest couple ever sentenced to death in the United States. Their crimes took place between 1986 and 1989, when drifters who worked on the Copeland's farm began to disappear without a trace. These drifters were used by Ray Copeland, a lifelong swindler, in an elaborate cattle buying scam that went on for years. Once the usefulness of these drifters was determined to have reached its end by Ray, he would kill them and bury them on nearby properties. In the first episode of our returning Deadly Love series, we look at the alleged crimes of Ray and Faye Copeland.

Tonight's Jazz Feature is one of Monk's most powerful musical statements on record. It was recorded by an especially assembled septet with Gigi Gryce on alto saxophone, Ray Copeland on trumpet and Coleman Hawkins and John Coltrane on tenor saxophones. Wilbur Ware on bass was Monk's favorite at this time and on drums was Monk's great friend an most sympathetic drummer, Art Blakey. Gryce helped Monk voice some of the arrangements and the musical happenings are astounding. On this album Monk looks forward by looking back. All the compositions are early ones except for the beautiful "Crepuscule With Nellie", written for Monk's devoted wife. In this piece there is no improvisation and it is a fully realized composition. "Monk's Music" is one of his most significant dates from his most creative period in the mid 50s. Listen here!
Pianist/composer Thelonious Monk was and still is one of the most important figures in Modern Jazz. In the 1950s he was neglected by the critics and many musicians. He did have his supporters in both fraternities but work was scarce and his records didn't sell and his music was never heard on Jazz radio. Tonight the Jazz Show presents two pivotal recording sessions that are now classics although they were pretty well ignored in their time. The first is Monk's final session for Blue Note from May of 1952. This well organized date was for a sextet with trumpeter Kenny Dorham and saxophonists Lou Donaldson and Lucky Thompson on alto and tenor respectively. Nelson Boyd on bass and the great Max Roach on drums and Mr. Monk. Five then new tunes were recorded and a trio track. The second session was one of his most relaxed and successful for Prestige Records done in 1954. A fine quintet with trumpeter Ray Copeland, a Monk favourite and a then new voice on the New York scene, tenor saxophonist Frank Foster. They blend well. Curly Russell is on bass and Monk's best buddy, Art Blakey is on drums. Three new Monk tunes are presented here and one great old standard, "Smoke Gets In Your Eyes" is given a wonderful Monkish treatment. This was not a working band but it sounded like one. Early Monk from 1952 and 1954 in super form tonight. The beginning of a month long series of Jazz features with Thelonious Monk.
ogprogrammer Show Notes PHPUG Las Vegas ZendCon 2017 Audio The post Interview with Joshua Ray Copeland appeared first on Voices of the ElePHPant.
Tonight on The Jazz Feature we present a group pf recording sessions that feature two great iconoclasts of Jazz music.: Art Blakey and Thelonious Monk who are celebrating their Birthday Anniversaries on Oct 10 (Monk) and Oct. 11 (Blakey). Blakey and Monk not only shared musical empathy but a lifelong friendship. Blakey was the drummer on Monk's very first recordings in 1947 and they continued that association over the years. Our first session is a trio date, his first for Prestige records in 1952. The second is a fine quintet date again for Prestige in 1954 with trumpeter Ray Copeland a and and tenor saxophonist Frank Foster. The third is a date that features an early working Monk band from late 1955, a quartet featuring alto saxophonist Gigi Gryce. It was issued under Gryce's name as Monk had just signed a new recording contract and didn't wish to jeopardize it. It's a fine date with four great compositions that are rare in Monk's repertoire. Finally from 1958, a live date from the legendary Five Spot Cafe with Monk's quartet with tenor saxophonist Johnny Griffin and Art Blakey sitting-in for the final tune of the night. All of these performances show the beautiful musical empathy between Thelonious Monk and Art Blakey, two giants who shaped Jazz music forever.

Pianist/composer Randy Weston celebrates his 83rd birthday tonight (April 6) and to honour this 6' 7" musical giant, The Jazz Show presents Randy with one of his finest ensembles. Originally released in 1965 on his own label, Weston sold the rights to Atlantic Records some years later and it was issued as "African Cookbook", after the great title track. Weston combines the concepts of Duke Ellington (the pianist) and Thelonious Monk into his own unique style. Randy's compositions have endured in Jazz for many years as he is responsible for "Little Niles", "Hi-Fly", "Pam's Waltz", "Babe's Blues" and so many others that have become Jazz standards. Weston's band here includes the great authoritative voice of tenor saxophonist Booker Ervin, who to this day remains sadly overlooked. On trumpet and flugelhorn is the late Ray Copeland, who was one of Monk's favourite players. Bill "Vishnu" Wood is solid on bass and works well with drummer Lenny McBrowne. Three tunes are done by this ensemble then percussionist, Big Black (aka Larry Roy) is added on congas as well as Sir Harold Murray on special percussion. One tune, "Blues For Five Reasons" is played by Weston plus bass and drums. All the compositions, with one exception are by Randy and they are all very distinctive. This is one special album and is our birthday tribute to a living Jazz master.
