Happy Birthday!

I haven't had access to my collection since 1999, aside from two or three holiday weeks, now decades past. At that point, my life expectancy aligned well with my collection size. Now, the years have passed and my continuously renewed expectation of "next year" feels delusional.

But look, it comes with 6,000 points! (Sorry, I live in a world where people are always grubbing for some form of "points" - airline, restaurant, hotel... Or "likes". Jeez, I'm old.)

Happy Birthday!

Fast forward six years...Happy BIrthday!

Sssssoulstation - Happy Birthday!

Late to the party, but happy birthday, JSngry.

I have been working in Japan for a couple of weeks. Toilets here are about as far from my home area as one can get. Some even provide music to obscure, well, toilet noises. So, what's your toilet music?

Up! for the 2018 Holiday Season!

Good. For me, 40-page booklet: bonus!

I just got an instant reply. Sounds like I'm "in". Thanks, Dan!

Happy birthday!

Have a great birthday!

Have a swingin' birthday!

I get a week off work in December, and I'm planning to go to Osaka. (Medical stuff to attend to.) Being in a place where jazz is performed in kind of a one-week-a-year thing for me. I expect to have time in the evenings to get to a show or two, and I know Osaka has jazz. (The record store scene is insane. https://groovenutrecords.wordpress.com/2018/03/23/osaka-record-map-2018/) As I recall, the Royal Horse was good, with international acts. Bunk Johnson (can't lose with a name like that) was another place I either saw or visited. Lots of the websites are tough to penetrate for people who don't read Japanese. "Rug Time" lists, among many pages of Japanese: 橋本 裕(g)、 橋本 有津子(org)、 Akira Tana(vo) Hmm. COMODO seems to feature vocal acts: not "my thing". Anyone with knowledge of Osaka?
