  1. Poland cancels 666 bus route to Hel amid complaints of “spreading satanism”. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/06/14/poland-hel-bus-666-gdansk-satanism-christians-catholic/
  2. Thank you! I ordered the Freedom, Rhythm & Sound, the California Cool, and the Steinweiss folio. The Blue Note and other cover books edited by Graham Marsh appear to be recycled and volumes combined under slightly-different titles. For my part, I really recommend the recently-published Joaquim Paulo, ed. Julius Wiedemann Jazz Covers, Taschen GmbH, 2021. ISBN: 978-3-8365-8525-5 As with some other Taschen titles, including this one and the Steinweiss book, there are smaller and larger format versions. I do recommend springing for the larger one. One other elusive jazz cover book is this one: The Color of Jazz: Album Cover Photographs by Pete Turner. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0847857980/?coliid=I2A913CV21ZB1J&colid=1J6EMQXK3XD10&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_gv_ov_lig_pi_dp
  3. I'm compiling literature for a school project relating to jazz album covers and need your help organizing a list of books published on this topic. These are the books I have in my small library: Ed. by Graham Marsh, Felix Cromey, Glyn Callingham Blue Note: The Album Cover Art, Chronicle Books, 1991. ISBN: 0-8118-0036-9 Ed. by Graham Marsh, Glyn Callingham New York Hot: East Coast Jazz of the 50s and 60s. The Album Cover Art, Chronicle Books, 1993. ISBN: 0-8118-0416-X Manek Daver Jazz Album Covers: The Rare and the Beautiful, Graphic-sha Publishing Co., Ltd, 1994. Richard Havers Blue Note: Uncompromising Expression , Chronicle Books, 2014. ISBN: 978-1-4521-4144-2 Joaquim Paulo, ed. Julius Wiedemann Jazz Covers, Taschen GmbH, 2021. ISBN: 978-3-8365-8525-5 Irwin Chusid, Chris Reisman SUN RA: Art on Saturn. The Album Cover Art of Sun Ra's Saturn Label, Fantagraphics Books, Inc., 2022. ISBN: 978-1-68396-658-6 I am sure there is more out there, especially printed in foreign lands.
  4. Now that we are on to them , I do remember some iffy Time magazine headlines from the imaginary past: Covid may turn into China's plague. 9/11 could become America's Pearl Harbor. Boots Randolph's new hit makes him the saxophone colossus.
  5. No f...ing way. I had to look it up...it's true. For me, this is more than enough to sack the journalist who wrote it and the editor.
  6. It baffles you because you are a German. Order, common sense and accountability aren’t as widespread in most other places around the world. As to the Impulse! question, yes, like the others, I see the 1970s MCA records in the earlier gatefolds fairly often. It’s kind of a brief nuisance when you think you just scored a nice OP, and then fish out a 120 g. MCA lp.
  7. Will you get used to it when heroin is legalized in the state if Maine? That day may come eventually.
  8. I was being generous. After all, he continues to play for the best clubs in Europe (for whatever reasons)... City did not own the midfield, like they usually do. Haaland was covered solid, and didn't produce much. Overall, not a great game from MC, but they did lose, in my opinion, the best player in the world after 30 minutes, when De Bruyne pulled his hemi. I was rooting for Inter also. Their defensive game was excellent. Plus, Man City is awash in Sheikh Mansour's dinars. Guardiola is an amazing manager, no doubt.
  9. Got mine today. Luck was on the side of those that deserved it! The padded envelope had a big chunk torn out of it, but the cds came out unscaved, and were in the "as described" condition. Thanks, ejp626!
  10. City made history, but not without struggle. If not for the terminally-unlucky Lukaku, things may have been different. In the last 10 minutes Inter made good chances in the box, but luck wasn't on their side, it was all doled out to Ederson, who was City's man of the match. Congrats to the City fans!
  11. Told you, it is everywhere. The mystique of weed is gone. It's become a crutch of the Generation Z. It concerns me.
  12. You are a savvy listener. I'll go with your recommendation. I'll take : Bennie Green Soul Stirrin' (Blue Note - TOCJ) - 6 Hank Mobley To One So Sweet, Stay That Way (Dutch Jazz Archive) - 12 Thanks!
  13. We saw him in August 2019 at the Jazz Forum in Tarrytown, NY. Trio with Paul Bollenback and Carmen Intorre. I liked how he played Misty.
  14. Sarah B. Pomeroy - GODDESSES, WHORES, WIVES, AND SLAVES: Women in Classical Antiquity Illuminating and pioneering.
  15. I saw that also, but chased that thought away...it's just weird.
  16. Aha. Googled Ed Bedno: A designer from Chicago, born in 1925, Second World War veteran, has a FB profile. Designed a few album covers for Mercury / EmArcy. https://www.discogs.com/artist/6170989-Ed-Bedno This one is odd. Are these...spuds?
  17. I wasn't going on about pot per se. In 2008 seeds in buds was not a frequent sight. It was already hydroponic, designer grass then. Now, if the OP were selling the OP of the BB, then seeds would definitely be period-appropriate.
  18. Seeds in buds? Schwag. You owe it to Miles to do better than that. He was class.
