		Booker little, known for his stints with Eric Dolphy, was not instantly recognized as the great trumpeter he was.
		Littles three originals stand out the most composition-wise, their take on "Milestones" is taken at a fast pace with a strong melodic approach.
		Booker Little plays the shit out of his trumpet man. The last two tunes are both blues standards and most likeley came from a Frank Strozier session.

	Booker Little - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Booker Little, Jr (born on April 2, 1938 in Memphis, Tennessee-died October 5, 1961 in New York City, NY) was a United States jazz trumpeter and composer.
		Stylistically Little belongs to the lineage of Clifford Brown, featuring crisp articulation, a burnished tone and balanced phrasing.
		Only four albums under his own name were recorded: Booker Little 4 + Max Roach (1958) for United Artists, Booker Little Quartet (1960) for Time, his masterpiece Out Front (1961) for Candid and finally Booker Little and Friend (reissued as Victory and Sorrow) for Bethlehem mere weeks before his passing.

	OAFE - Booker T review
		Booker T is an all-star WWE champion - originally a player from the WCW, he had 5 WCW Championship titles and overall 22 WCW titles.
		Booker stands about 6 1/2" tall and is considerably well sculpted - the expression on his face is stupid, which is pretty accurate to the character.
		Booker T comes with only one real accessory - a stylish little WWF suitcase, a couple of inches tall that opens to reveal various pieces of clothing, socks, a mobile phone.

	May God Little bless Booker Bookies- The Times of India (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		And so all is forgiven to this self-confessed ''cheating bastard" who, to mimic the teenager hero of his debut novel Vernon God Little, can't believe 'his f*** luck,' that he is finally here for having written a darkly funny satire of the American dream gone sour and blood-curdling in teenagers' vertiginous brains.
		And let Booker Bookies, too, be forgiven for trying a tad too hard to sell 'Oriental chic.' And the jury be blessed for not letting didactic monsters get in the way.
		Dear disabused readers, in the end what does it matter to us who is winning Booker or Pulitzer, or whether the story-telling voice is that of Ganguli's or Gogol's as long as the beloved book you lie with entangles you, even though kisses are sometimes fake and eyelashes false.

		Booker said that though Little Rock rap has a lot of talent, he simply doesnât have space for artists that âhavenât made it yet, that donât have a promotional budgetâ behind them.
		Little Rock and Arkansas as a whole just donât have enough rap listeners to generate the attention needed to attract national labels.
		Booker said that he is considering starting workshops to teach local artists about promoting themselves and the business side of radio and records.

		Booker Little had a short career but his music was pretty well documented and he made quite a number of excellent records.

		This important music was definitely ahead of its time and is still not widely known, due in part to the fact that it was recorded for a small record label.
		Booker's second session as a leader (April, 1960), to the introspective and challenging sextet sessions that followed.
		Sadly, the evolution of the jazz trumpet has been shaped by the early deaths of some of its most talented practitioners, some still in their 20s, like Fats Navarro, Clifford Brown and Booker Little; Joe Gordon was in his 30s.

	Terence Blanchard : Fire Waltz: Eric Dolphy and Booker Little Remembered - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Terence Blanchard and Donald Harrison continued their homage to the Eric Dolphy/Booker Little duo with a second set of performances recorded at Sweet Basil.
		But they are not transcendent for the simple reason that Harrison lacks Dolphy's fluency on either alto sax or bass clarinet, and Blanchard does not possess Little's command of the upper register or his embrouchure.
		That is not a knock; they certainly clicked with the rhythm section of pianist Mal Waldron, bassist Richard Davis, and drummer Ed Blackwell, who did play on the originals.

		Booker Little's contributions to jazz fall far short of what they might have been if he had lived past the age of 23.
		However, his recordings present a deeply talented trumpet player, possessing a warm, bell-like tone and a highly developed melodic sense.
		The listener is left with a strong sense that Booker was soon to be a major talent in the profound extension of the jazz language that took place in the years following his death in 1961.

	Arkansas Historical State Song: The Arkansas Traveler
		Cole of Charleston, West Virginia, have given me versions with more varied dialogues; but the colloquy as to night's lodging, roof, and tune remains about the same, and the student of folk-lore is left to trace its threads of fancy in whatever directions they lead.
		Colonel “Sandy,” who was the spokesman, and no mean fiddler himself, had some sort of bantering talk with the squatter, who was sawing at a tune on a violin, and finally played the second part of it for him.
		It really matters little where the “Traveler” was born, whether in Yell County or in the Boston Mountains; whether, as Mr.

	Conservative Intelligence Center--Return Of The Gods Web Site.
		Once one embraces a Cult of Moral 'Rectitude,' premised upon the idea of a right to change other men's cultures, or alter their stations--with or without their consent--there is very little real respect that remains for personal freedom.
		Thus the parlor theories of the "Enlightened" drawing rooms of 18th Century Paris, rapidly devolved into a "Reign of Terror." And yet, that epoch was little more than a comic interlude compared to the social disaster for the West that has been developing over the past two generations.
		It is no exaggeration to suggest that the combination of Egalitarianism with the "true believer's" need to assume a mantle of moral 'rectitude,' sets in motion a process which rapidly 'morphs' from passion to fanaticism, finally to mania, as programs conceived in fantasy inevitably come to failure.
