  1. Do make that a priority! Saw him a couple months back and he and the band, sans Esperanza that evening, were great. Francesco Mela is a MONSTER!!!
  2. the "girls beware" linked on the page has much better music. anyone know who it might be?
  3. nice interview on Fresh Air http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c_LeNVDRhDM
  4. THAT, R_T gives a whole nuther reading to "A Shot in the Dark"!
  5. '85... first couple were black triangle (whatever those were ) Japanese 'best of Blue Notes vol 1 & 2', 'Aja' and Joe Williams 'Nothin' But The Blues' as I had the vinyl and wanted to know what these things sounded like. the only place you could buy them in Cleveland at the time was a little import store in the Arcade. Those few were probably lunch money for a month. did not get a player of my own for some time - a guy at work bought a Sony D5 (i think) and we would listen via headphones or bring it around to our respective apts and hook it up with the cheapo RCAs. we were all completely blown away by them. being pretty much a neophyte to Blue Note I cranked that Vol. 2, taped for the car, endlessly!!
  6. NCAA stiffs Buckeyes! wtf is with these players!? something in them "buckeye leaf" stickers numbing their brains? or just the lineage of Hayes, Schlichter, Clarett, Tatum ...
  7. just sampled thru itunes - very nice - haven't bought a Previte for a while - thanks for the tip.
  8. unfortunately zotz exists as far as composer Kenyon Hopkins' issues but found a sampler of "Mr. Buddwing" here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2w14cX8acg0
  9. that mother nature can be full of piss n' vinegar at times!
  10. a bit off beat but Medeski Martin & Wood turn in a great experiment here - esp after 2:00 when Leslie arrives:
  11. funny I just rcvd an email from Johnny Trunk Records. a new issue of the sdtrck Primitive London (nsfw depending on where you work) has cues identical to Hermann's "Taxi Driver" 12 years the later. amazon sample
  12. hi cih, threads and such touching on this abound. Teasing the Korean has much input. and Big Beat is right - the Miles / Wilen is spot on! one in particular that is available on iTunes was discussed here: murder. inc. while not straight up noir, Irving Joseph, a bit more bouncy, was just down the road from Raymond Scott it seems - I could see a pack of hungry cannibals actually following thru to this soundtrack. then there's this precursor to Naked City (in 3 parts):
  13. you saying they raised the bar for fun?
  14. Maybe the EO was trying for this vibe ? and that's some fun.
  15. very true! and the fact that a Supertramp thread still remains and we don't yet have a forum for monochromatic covers is illogical!
  16. NOW THAT'S FUNNY!!!! there's more than E Buzz Miller subtlety here.
  17. I have always preferred the older enja stuff w/ Boston's Stan Strickland. and the great NY Composers Orchestra under Horvitz et al. Wayne's NYCO website has two great essential downloads available: prodigal son fever
  18. always hoped that this might be issued on CD.
  19. thanks for that article ... so Bart Starr played safety as well as punter??? geez I had no idea - please ask Jim's dad!
