  1. Disc 1 last night. Sounds much better than the 3 cd set from 1996. This band is on fire!
  2. hmmm..listened to the samples which sounded good. I've never been a fan of Desmond's but this might be a buy.
  3. I ordered via UDiscover. Has anyone get a shipping notice from them?
  4. Mine showed up while on vacation. Shipping notice was in spam folder so didn't see it initially. What disc should I play first?
  5. I believe PM said they had discussed working again but nothing more, I guess due to his illness. As for his recent recordings, From this Place is terrific-his best recording in a while. The hr download is very dynamic.
  6. Also a good review in today's Washington Post but let's be honest, his drug use exacerbated his other health issues. He was so terribly thin the one time I saw him that it was no surprise to read of his arrest. Sadly, another drug casualty.
  7. We saw Kenny Barron in bucolic Mt. Gretna PA on the 20th. He was in excellent form despite some sound issues. He was accompanied by a Japanese bassist and Jonathan Blake on percussion. Frankly, I would have rather seen a solo performance given how well he was playing. Nice to see live jazz again.
  8. Always enjoy seeing him with the Cookers.
  9. $325 for the Carver (pdf manual available), $275 for the SVS 16-46pci and $200 for the Paradigm Monitor 11 v2. All of these are OBO. Local pickup/meetup in Washington DC metro area. Shipping might be work but would not be cheap. Direct email with any ? is jhw59 at hotmail.com
  10. Thanks Lon. I have a Jolida tube cd player I use for redbook playback generally.
  11. happy I have a 203 AND a 205 Oppo. I've been using the 203 but will integrate the 205 into my new setup when I move next month.
  12. Keystone Korner in Baltimore reopening soon!
  13. Enjoyed it but I wouldn't want to be married to him. Otherwise, he presents himself as a musician intent on passing his knowledge to young players.
  14. I love Dexter but that man had some issues. I remember seeing him at a club and between breaks (not set but instrument) he would leave the bandstand, go to the bar and chug a couple of beers then return for his break without missing a beat. This was early 80s I think.
  15. Never a fan of the SQ of the 3 cd set as it wasn't very well miced. I'm not sure any new releases will be able to improve it.
