I usually have pretty good luck with the free shipping option, too... just trying to not get my hopes up too high!
-
Shipped...it'll be at my door tomorrow!
Hmmm. Mine still says "shipping soon".
Because we're not Amazon Prime members.
I'm not a Prime member either, but I just got the shipping notice.
But, with the "super saver" shipping, I'm not expecting it until the end of the week at the earliest.

I've been using ICDSoft for many years now, never any problems. Tech support very responsive.

Plan to get the Mitchell as soon as it's released.
Same here.

Thanks, Chuck.

Former blackberry owner, also switched to android over a year ago.
Other than privacy concerns and my general distrust of all things google, it is a nice phone. Battery life is not great, but other than that, it is way better than the blackberry.

Hang in there, brother. I hope you don't go away, but if you do, remember you'll always have friends here when you come back.

I'm thinking it's a long drive to Philly.
13 hours!

I want a world that I want to be a part of.
Well, you're part of this little online community... and I'm sure I'm not the only one that's glad you're here. Thanks for all the great music recommendations.
Hang in there, man.

Coincidentally, I'm drinking a Dewar's right now. "I'm thinking" I should probably cut back a bit... but that hasn't done much good yet, at least not tonight.
I'm also thinking I'm in love with Margo Timmins. Her aging (along with the rest of us) has made her even more beautiful.
These two thoughts are not necessarily related!

My copy arrived Friday (!), and I've been listening to it more or less non-stop since then.
Indeed a wonderful record. I had (almost) forgotten how much I like John Young's playing. Reminds me I need to pull out those Von Freeman titles on Nessa again soon.
Paul's assessment is right on -- if you don't have it yet, take a chance. Fantastic music.

Congratulations!
organissimo jammin' in a cubicle? I've never worked in an office that cool!
Where was that photo taken?

How is the early Roscoe Mitchell stuff coming along?
-
I really like this one (Charlie Haden/Paul Motian/Geri Allen - Etudes):
Their version of Ornette's "Lonely Woman" is, (to use an over-used but quite appropriate description), "hauntingly beautiful".

My name translates to "Leering Drunk"
Stick with what you're good at!

Kenny Gorelick: GIRLY, KEEN CONK

Extremely cool. Thanks, Rooster.

I don't have the Lyons box yet, but it has been on my radar for a few years now.
I was debating the best way to buy it here (US) -- go direct to Ayler records, Jazz Loft, wait for Amazon prices to come down... ???
50 euros is about $70, and the Ayler records site says free shipping worldwide. Sounds like Ubu's advice is right on!

My apologies to GA Russell for temporarily derailing this thread.
Yes, maybe that type of iconic moment doesn't happen anymore, or at least on any large scale like it did in 1964.
I certainly don't understand it (I was born in 1966), and I'm sure I never will.
But, my point is that moments like that still happen, still get inside heads, and are still remembered... maybe a much more splintered experience overall, but that door still opens.
At least I hope it does. My 17-old daughter gives me reason to believe that's still true.
If it doesn't, we're all screwed.
How's that for hyperbole?
-
I'm sure it was really cool.
It still is.
Your personal reaction to Monday Michiru notwithstanding. I'm pretty sure that happened after 1964.
-
This was when dreams became something other than what you had when you fell asleep.
JSngry, master of hyperbole.
As if 1964 (or any time after that, up to, and including 2011) was the last time anyone had dreams that became something other...

A quick question regarding the new releases as compared to the 1967/68 Box Set:
You mentioned earlier that there would eventually be four single discs and one double.
Congliptious (single), Old/Quartet Sessions (double), and All The Numbers (double) seem to cover most of the box set, with the exception of "A to Ericka" and "Quintet" from Disc D.
Is that correct? Can we expect (hope) to see one more single disc release?

Charles Mingus - "Meditations on Integration", Belgium 1964 (Jazz Icons DVD).
Hole. Lee. Shit.
Eric Dolphy makes me want to cry.
