  1. Where else can you hear Ron Bennington?
  2. Perhaps they will now that it has been made apparent. Maybe they'll even buy a copy of wax poetic, and they'll be on their way, one gateway at a time.
  3. I didn't think it was possible for this to be taken as anything but a joke. I just don't post enough anymore I guess.
  4. I think we should cut Halvorson some slack here guys.
  5. Ok. Checking it out this morning on spotify. Sounds good to me! Probably not something that I would spend a ton of time with (Nessa AEC box, Walt Dickerson/Richard Davis duets, Interstellar Space), but thanks for the heads up.
  6. Perhaps we have! Apologies. The jazz musicians that I know personally have and do talk about all of the above quite a bit. It is music made by jazz musicians, and sounds to me very much an extension of jazz as we remember it and expect it to sound. Hip Hop from the early nineties sounds like jazz because it was using classic jazz/hard bop samples from the sixties and seventies. How could it not? That was now twenty to twenty five years ago. Those aesthetics have synthesized back into the music. At least twice. It's coming out differently. I haven't heard the album that started the thread, but recognized his name because of the FlyLo reference. I'm willing to check it out, but it sounds to me from everyone's description to be a throwback record.
  7. Mentioning Flying Lotus or Kendrick Lamar here has always gone nowhere in the past. Mother can be traced back to Dave Schildkraut or Speedy West. Truthfully, there has been a little bit of discussion on these guys, Thundercat, D'Angelo, Badu, Dilla, Madlib, Soulquarians etc etc, but it just doesn't fit into the idea of how jazz is here at org.org.
  8. It very well could Scott. I've experienced all of the above.
  9. Dewey Redman, Cecil Taylor, Elvin Jones. Momentum Space. Verve. Major. Nineties. Jazz.
  10. Yes, I remember the used jazz cd section to be very smooth overall. Glad you were able to get away. It's been a few years now since I've been to Manifest. I spent a lot of money there as a kid in my twenties.
  11. Finally! We are in a minefield. I was beginning to feel like this was going nowhere.
  12. George Scala live in Charlotte. Great guy. Do yall know each other by chance? http://www.mindspring.com/~scala/
  13. I used to know Charlotte well. It has been fifteen years, and the entire town has changed. Especially uptown! I hate to say it, but Charlotte doesn't seem to realize that jazz even exists. I know you aren't in the market for CDs/LPs, but Manifest Disc and Tape on South Blvd is still one of the best on the east coast. It sits inside an old grocery store and the dollar bins are very well stocked. Most of my ECM LPs were purchased there and cost me a dollar a piece.
  14. I've been to a couple of Gordon Biersch locations years ago, but didn't know the origin. It seems to be a chain microbrew gastropub type thing.
  15. The DB Cooper hypothesis is really panning out!
  16. The last thing you want in this situation is a shaman on you. I saw one of my roommates go through something similar once. We spent the better part of Black Beauty talking him down. More wicker than teak in that room. You have bad vibes dude. Just letting you know.
  17. Ok Chuck, but I challenge you to do a blind CD/ LP/lightbulb/laser record player A/B/C/D/X test and tell me if you can tell which set of limitations you are hearing.
  18. I've experienced this before. Some of the time, everything seemed to be happening at once, but I could isolate activities, like the area rug that was lying against the floor. It was absorbing as much of the light and music as it possibly could. It wasn't much, but it was more than I could say of the window. The window seemingly had nothing to do with the floor, but we knew better. I've experienced that before.
