i enjoy his playing as well. my favorite is take your pick on concord, which also features renee rosnes and lew tabackin.

This has been confirmed by the head writer for the awards show. Meanwhile, Triumph, the insult comic dog said: "I'm a legend around here. I sat on Eminem's face long before Brüno ever did...But we're friends now. We're tight. We're tighter than Gloria Vanderbilt's ass."

i've got nothing on stan, but i know howard roberts is a dirty guitar player! and j.m. is a nut.

thank you! you made my day! oh how can you be in two places at once, when you're not any-where at alllll, bum bum bum bum.

okay, it's 4 in the morning and i'm totally exhausted. so i guess i have an excuse for the fact that... I DON"T GET IT! whew! wait a minute. am i dead tired?

it's like, out, man.

very nicely put, margaret. looking forward to seeing you and henry again next week.

congratulations, and thank you for making this great music available, even though... we're not worthy, we're not worthy!

i think i just peed myself! my favorite part is sachas' remark "is the real slim shady about to stand up?" we shouldn’t be surprised by eminem’s hasty departure from the scene given his homophobic lyrics. i hope dick cheney doesn't find out about berigan's sympathy for eminem. lynne cheney once told cnn that "eminem is certainly, i think, the most extreme example of rock lyrics used to demean women, advocate violence against women, violence against gay people." if i were you, beri, i'd declined any invitations to go hunting with dick until this thing blows over.

kinky! btw, this item reminds of an admittedly juvenile joke: "why did god make farts smell bad?" "so deaf people could enjoy them too!" (told you it was juvenile)

i feel...so...used.

Now there's something you don't hear too often. .... i've heard it before.

i'd like my jazz with a side order of

damn, you're going too? this is getting scary. it's like you're stalking me or something. please tell me you're not going to the vision fest in nyc.

While visiting another member's record store today, I discovered that Candid had reissued several titles from the Japanese Why Not catalog this past March. Every one of these mid-priced remasters is worthy owning, imo. Hopefully, there will be more to come. Air Feat. Henry Threadgill - Air Song [WNCD79403] Henry Threadgill - tenor, baritone and alto saxophones, flute Fred Hopkins - bass Steve McCall - percussion Air, the archetypal free jazz trio, originally formed out of a similar co-operative called Reflection in 1971. Henry Threadgill on Saxophone, Fred Hopkins on bass and Steve McCall on percussions re-united in 1975 and this album when this album was recorded. The perceptive Japanese producer Masahiko Yuh recorded Air for his Why Not label. The band went on to reach notoriety with their ragtime inspired free jazz albums. This album is the first of two LPs recorded for Why Not. The trio functions with all three members contributing musically on an equal foot. The creative solos and advanced interplay make this record sublimely satisfying. Chico Freeman - Morning Prayer [WNCD79412] Chico Freeman - tenor and soprano saxophones, flute, pan-pipe, percussion Muhal Richard Abrams - piano Cecil McBee - bass, cello Steve McCall - percussion Ben Montgomery - drums, percussion Douglas Ewart - bass flute, bamboo flute, percussion Chico Freeman is the son of well known saxophonist Von Freeman. Raised in Chicago during the 1950s and 60s Chico honed his musical skills as a reed man and joined the A.A.C.M (Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians). The band that Freeman put together for this recording for Why Not results from his involvement in the A.A.C.M. and make for an incredibly exciting band. With Freeman playing sax, flute and percussion there is Henry Threadgill (also on sax, flute and percussion), Muhal Richard Abrams (percussion), Cecil McBee (bass and cello), Steve McCall (percussion), Ben Montgomery (drums and percussion) and Douglas Ewart (bass flute, bamboo flute and percussion). George Cables - Why Not? [WNCD79402] George Cables - piano Tony Dumas - bass Carl Burnett - drums Pianist and New Yorker George Cables absorbed all that the city had to offer and its influence on him shaped his approach to music. Trained classically as a youth Cables attended the Mannes College of Music for two years and by the age of 19 was playing professionally with the Jazz Samaritans alongside drum legend Billy Cobham. Cables went on to work as sideman with Max Roach, Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers and after touring with Sonny Rollins he settled in Los Angeles. In 1975 the perceptive Masahiko Yuh, sensing that here was an artist drastically underexposed as a leader, went to LA to record this record. With Tony Dumas on bass and Carl Burnett on drums to trio recorded at Record Plant Studios. The result was a record which defines the modern jazz piano trio in a manner which is always contemporary and always fresh even decades after it was recorded. Walt Dickerson - Tell Us Only The Beautiful Things [WNCD79401] Walt Dickerson - vibraphone Wilbur Ware - bass Andrew Cyrille - percussion Walt was a true original with a unique sound and a distinctive approach to the vibraphone, taking forward the path laid out by Hamp right through to Milt Jackson and beyond. Dickerson made quite an impact on when he first burst on to the then embryonic "free jazz" scene as evidenced by his being voted "New Star 1962" in the prestigious Down Beat critics poll. In spite of this however, wider jazz recognition never came aided no doubt by long periods of seeming inactivity. After recording four albums for PRESTIGE in the early sixties, the somewhat enigmatic Walt dropped out until 1975 when the ubiquitous Masahiko Yuh recorded this and another album in his hometown Philadelphia.

they weren't all chryslers, were they?

you know how many times i've been caught speeding with radar that i wasn't speeding? zero

i wasn't aware of this, and i'm somewhat skeptical that this is the reason for the limit change. however, i have no doubt that a cruiser is going to park where the limit is reduced. that only makes sense if you're trying to catch or stop people from speeding. sorry, but without some facts to support this contention, i doubt people subconsciously or instinctively know what speed to drive at. one reason for my skepticism is the fact that your driving experience has a lot to do with your car (i feel more comfortable driving faster in my dad's mercedes than i do in a compact car). i think another factor is the individual's personality, and the speed at which other cars are traveling (ever notice how the guy you're passing tends to speed up slightly if you're passing him slowly?). i'm more inclined to believe that some speed limits might be set lower because most people tend to drive 10 mph faster than the posted limited. if you set it 10 mph lower, the average person will be driving at the speed you want them to. it's like that friend who always arrives 1/2 hour late. if you tell him to meet you 30 minutes earlier than you intend to show up, both of you arrive at the same time! actually, such drivers are breaking the law twice: first by violating the parking laws, and second by not paying the fine within the 21(?) days allowed. and someone who easily gets 3 tickets in one night? hell, i'd tow the jerk's car, since he obviously thinks the laws that apply to you and me don't apply to him. here's the part i really don't understand - "money-grubbing," "money-making bullshit," etc. who thinks the police, the courts, or anyone else is profiting personally from such behavior? perhaps police officers get some kind of recognition or credit for catching more traffic violators (i.e., doing there job more frequently), but does anyone here think they get a percentage of the take? that money goes to pave and plow the roads, put out fires, run the schools and school buses, put officers on the street to help keep the peace - all things that benefit me, you, and most everyone else. the alternative? want to pay more taxes? i'm in no way defending illegal or deceptive practices by the police, the courts, or the municipalities. that kind of shit has to be exposed and corrected. but if i fail to pay attention to posted speed limits, or if i disobey the law because i don't want to miss the first set at my favorite jazz spot, then who's responsible? me, that's who. and the good thing about that? i have some control over the situation. i haven't received a speeding ticket in the last 2-3 years because i stay close to the limit. sometimes i have to use cruise control to do it, because i have a nice car with a 6-cylinder engine that rides comfortably at fairly high speeds. the bottom line is i've changed my behavior and can see the positive results (more money to spend on jazz!). there are many injustices in the world. i just don't think that someone who has the ability to obey the law and knowingly breaks it can claim injustice when he's caught. frankly, i'm surprised at one member's attitude on this issue given his habit of telling others that they'll be damned if they don't follow the holy laws he subscribes to. it smacks of hypocrisy to me. just ask yourself, "how would jesus drive?"

complaining about getting a speeding ticket is bullshit, imo. you break the law, you pay a fine. how does the fact that you don't get caught every time you break the law prove the law is unjust, or that the motives of those who enforce the law are suspect or worthy of criticism? if money is needed to help run a state or local government (which provides you with valuable services), why not go after those who make a conscious decision to break the law? what kind of protection do they deserve? before someone accuses me of having a holier-than-though attitude, let me say that i receive my fair share of speeding tickets. when the officer asks, "do you know why i pulled you over?" i answer "because i was speeding." no excuses, no sob stories. and i usually get a ticket, which i deserve. why not try answering that question with "because the law is a money making system" and see how far you get. another thing i don't like is those commercials from law firms that offer to "get the i.r.s off your back" or "stop them from hounding you" by settling your debt for less than you actually owe. wake up folks! don't want the i.r.s. on your back? pay your fucking taxes like the rest of us! geez, and you guys think it's psychologists like me who also make excuses why someone's not responsible for their actions.

thanks for creating this thread for the purpose stated. it's better, i.e., more mature than what i had in mind: STUPIDITY IS WRONG TOO

everything you could ask for, and more at bags unlimited. shipping is included in their prices.

Isn't that one called 'Short Stop'? Think I've got a copy some-where. i think you're both correct. it depends on the issue. chewy's lp on straight ahead is indeed titled short snort.

it appears this material was originally released on smash records, a subsidiary of mercury. several years ago it was reissued on cd by verve as this is billy mitchell. and yes, i like your list, but wouldn't it be appreciated more in the vinyl forum?

Happy Birthday Jim! And happy barbecue too!
