Use, the ball is in your court. But clearly this jackass needs to have his ass canned from the board.

Got mine on Saturday, hope to be listening tomorrow.

I believe the simple answer is that these CDRs could be sold legally in Europe, but the import and sale of these recordings, still copyrighted in the US, would be illegal. On the other hand, places like Dusty Groove and Cadence have no trouble importing and re-selling Lonehill and other rip-off labels, so who knows?

Dan, "the man", Maybe we can get some gigs this fall or winter in Florida.. It would be great to see you again... ← I was hoping you guys would be back at the Clearwater Fest, too bad that they have some cockamamie rule about how long you have to wait to be reinvited.

Awesome! I've already tuned in and confirmed that my sound card handles simultaneous recording of streaming audio. Just have to make sure the wife starts the recording. Looking forward to it, guys!

Yes, there is a moderator, but believe me, it is likely that the FIST OF DOOM will come down on your F**KING TROLLING *SS, so I strongly suggest that you watch what you ask for.

Well, I can tell you that I was able to hit Gary with another, highly obscure item in his brother's discography http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...1&st=&p=entry and when I found out that he was also lacking all of Charles' Mainstream Records appearances, I hooked him up with our own Bill Fenohr and got him covered in that regard, too. ← Gary is still around, but now with a complete collection of Charles's music, thanks to the overwhelming generosity and kindness of two stellar individuals in Dan Gould and Bill Fenohr. There have been a number of family gatherings during which the newly acquired music made its debut to everyone's delight. Dan, some material is scheduled to be moved out of our storage unit over the upcoming July 4th holiday. That will make a way for me to get at the 2 or 3 gospel albums we did of Charles. Since I don't have the equipment to transfer from vinyl to electronic media, I will ship it to you in hopes that you can perform the magic. Has your address changed? gary@kynard.com ← UPDATE: From Gary's email this morning:

Oh maaaannnnn ... first time I've wished I was back in New York in quite a while. And my folks aren't even home to tape it. AAARRGGHHH Aw hell, they wouldn't know how to tape it anyway.

145 now, a strong category 4, and only about six hours away from Pensacola-Ft Walton Beach. The panhandle is really gonna take it, again.

What if we did pool our resources, and all interested parties chipped in, say, $10? I have a suspicion this dude has a reserve of at least $100 . .. but what if we solicited donations, and tried to snap this up together, and shared and shared alike? I suspect most people have the music itself, but anyone who doesn't gets an expert transfer of the vinyl, and everybody gets an expert transfer of the 45, regardless. First thing would be to determine the number of people actually willing to contribute, and determine whether they want to contribute a set amount, toward a single bid, or authorize a maximum bid, to be divided evenly based on the number of participants in the bidding group. I'm gonna start a new thread to do just that.

And others! How many others? Is it possible that Hank's "speech" consists of only a few sentences? Remember, by most accounts, he was pretty loaded that night. There were lots of people giving "speeches" that night, and this sounds like it might be a collection of soundbites. It is, after all, a 45. I'd still love to have/hear it, but at what cost? ← If you go to the bottom of the page, click on the lowest image-it shows the two sides of the 45. It looks like there is a total of four sound clips, with Ruth Lion listed at the top and Hank at the end. So if Cuscuna is one of the others, that leaves one "mystery" speaker.

Lots of warm water in the gulf, I thought it would strengthen a bit quicker than it did, but now its looking very symmetrical and its still got a ways to go before landfall. Might be back to 135 or 140 by then, and it looks like Pensacola is going to get drilled again, when they've hardly recovered from last year's monster storm. I'm just glad it missed south Florida. We hardly even saw any rain in Palm Beach county today.

I picked this one up on vinyl a couple of years ago when I got heavily into Spoon. Its nice ... but I didn't think it was earth shattering. But worth hearing, certainly.

Don't know for sure, but maybe they're just waiting for a new pressing. If it was a label problem, wouldn't they just delete it from the site altogether? ← In trying to determine the status of my Cellar Live order, I finally got a response from Cory Weeds, and I asked about the Eric Alexander disc. Turns out there was an issue of a "contractual breach" and then he basically said, so it won't be available anymore but stay tuned because it might be. Sounds to me like they're trying to work a deal to sell whatever is left from the first run of CDs, so hopefully this will be available at some point, but anyone who wants it better watch the website and act fast if it comes back.

Thanks. I'm kinda confused because I went to the Jazz Depot website, and not only do they not list a new release by Frank, he's not even in the roster of artists. Isn't that weird? And the website is up to date, its got the new Cedar Walton release ... but not even a mention of Frank Morgan.

I take it this is a follow-up to City Nights on High Note? I confess I haven't visited Alan's site in a while, but if this is anything like the last CD, I should be all over it.

Yeah, real expensive! Maybe we can pool our resources?

Check this out: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...4746141479&rd=1 Anyone else know that this was issued in Japan with Alfred Lion's speech on one side of a 45, with Hank, Ruth Lion, Cuscuna on the other?

Could it be because it's about boots, i.e. illegal recordings? ← Are we going to ban discussion of illegal recordings? BTW, at least some of these recordings aren't illegal -- they're BBC broadcasts from the 70s. Guy ← So BBC broadcasts can magically become legal recordings for sale? Interesting what you learn in Grad School.

There's a Pink Floyd thread?

yet they buy crap day after day ....

Kind of a big "if" on a jazz board, Dan. Is it possible for a jazz fan not to "dig him"? Hard to fathom as he seems to be "it" these days. The man has everthing, chops, soul, technique beyond belief, super fat tone, timing, and a really likable style. ← Ask Jsngry - I think its fair to say that he admires the man's technical skill but hears nothing that he hasn't heard before, and done better, by EA's influences. And I'd dare say there are others here who have not leaped on the Eric Alexander bandwagon. Thus, the conditional clause in my post.

Yeah, well if you hadn't posted this, I would have been quite content to ignore the link. Now, all I can say is
