  1. As a musician I would say CD-Rs if it's OOP or really hard to find. But that's just me. If you want to trade CD-Rs of in-print material, just do it via the PM fuction.
  2. Well, it is our board afterall, so we have to have some marketing! You can check out our debut CD at the homepage... If ya like it, take it home!!! You can also use this particular forum to post a review if you have the disc. All comments welcome!
  3. I'll have to check out the clips. It's called B3Bombers but there's only one organist? And no Dr. Lonnie Smith!?!?!
  4. Berigan, I think what we should do as a community is have a poll asking "politics or no politics". This place is for you guys. I can do without politics too, but if enough people want it, then it's cool with me. I'll just stay out of it! Does that sound cool?
  5. I would get it for the playing alone. I agree with Soulstream on that one. Jimmy at his wildest. Some of it is mind-boggling, some of it is downrigth too much in my opinion, but it's all amazing. The sound quality isn't great, but I don't think it detracts from the music. I don't think Bluenote had figured out how to record live yet. Or maybe the equipment just wasn't up to snuff. Whatever the reason, it is kind of rough, but the music far outweighs that concern. GET IT! B)
  6. Hey I like your avatar! Horace Silver! Yeah! My copy of Soulville sounds fine too. Enough with the re-packaging I say.
  7. A friend of mine just got this CD player. We tested it out on my system which consists of: B&W CDM-SE1s Adcom GFA-5800 Adcom GFP-750 Nordost Blue Heaven interconnects Audioquest Type IV speaker wire I own an Arcam Diva player which I really liked... until I heard the NuVista. Even my wife, who is completely skeptical of these things, noticed the difference right away and her eyes got really big (we were comparing Alison Krauss' new recording, her favorite artist). The NuVista is absolutely amazing. I have not heard SACD yet, but this things makes CDs sound fantastic.
  8. OoooooOOooOO yeah baby! Burn me one! Let's see what I can trade... I have that Shirley Scott record on Strata East that's bad as all getout... I also have a sweet Billy Preston record where he's playing organ and piano and doing all gospel tunes. Amazing organ work on that one. I've got lots of vinyl. Ask me about something... Oo, just remembered one. Gene Ludwig on Mainstream. With Jerry Byrd on guitar. Bad shit!
  9. This is my aim... I've made some wonderful friends on the BNBB and it would suck to see those friendships trail off. If the BNBB is going to take away our freedoms and the AAJ board won't give us those same freedoms, then we can have them here. This board was set up for you guys (and gals) to come and talk and hang out and not worry about someone hanging over your head and censoring what you have to say. As long as we all treat each other in a civil manner, we'll have no problems. The only thing that would make me say something is if someone was personally attacking another person or using this board to spout hate. I won't stand for that. Anything else goes... any kind of music. Music is music. Life contains much more than music so we can talk about that as well. I will do my best to make this place user-friendly. Any and all comments/criticisms and questions are welcome.
  10. Stark white... the bluish ones were cheaper but the white ones are brighter. I came up behind a cop while I was testing them out... I was afraid he was going to pull me over!
  11. Welcome JazzMoose! Good to see you! Hope you enjoy your stay! I'm getting more familair with this software... I really like it! More boards should use it.
  12. Can your board software do THIS! Here's an online poll for y'all. I think it is pertinent. What site would you like to see become the new home for Bluenote Bullentin Board patrons?
  13. The guy who I buy webspace from (thechain.com) turned me on to it. It's very nice. The homepage is http://www.invisionboard.com. It's open source too, which is very cool! I like it better than most other bb software I've seen... especially the free ones!
  14. Yeah I was against them... they stick out like a sore thumb in a line of cars and can be distracting. Plus they're really bright... BUT... I realized today driving my van home from the shop (transmission went out... luckily under warranty!) that I couldn't see very well with my headlights, even with the brights on. And I drive all over the place. I'm constantly doing gigs hours away from home. So I bought some of those really white, super bright halogens. They cost $40 for the pair. And they are SWEET! I can see everything very clearly and they seem to cast a wider ban of light, too. I'm sure the other drivers hate my guts, but I need to see! What do y'all think?
  15. Anyone here have that obscure Nilva label date that Patton is on with Grachan Moncur III? I've been looking for that one forever. The name escapes me at the moment.
  16. Ooo! Cool! Let me know what you think! If you like it, consider writing a review at www.cdstreet.com
  17. Haha! Yeah, isn't this software cool!!! And it's free! CRAZY!
  18. Agreed... very good organist. I think Pete Fallico featured her on an "Women of Jazz Organ" concert awhile ago. Is that what you saw? Barbara Dennerlein was there too. Another great female organist! Do they really have a lot of Rhoda's work on Dusty Groove? That stuff is hard to find.
  19. After that, grab some Boogaloo and then comes... UNDERSTANDING!!! B)
  20. There were so many layers it was hard to get a sense of what was going on in the car. I'd have to sit down with it and give it a good run through. One thing's for sure... Bobby is a mofo.
  21. Thanks Jim. I appreciate that. I really do. Coming from a great musician, not to mention cool person such as you. We'll see how this baby works... I'll try my best to make it a cool place to hang.
  22. Yeah, I'm still getting familiar with the software, so hang tight. Email me with any problems... As far as the back door, I haven't made a link on the main page of my website yet, but I'll get to that. This is merely a test of the Emergencey Bluenote System...
