I recently received an e-mail about the following Joe McPhee show in Seattle. I missed him last time he played here, so I am looking forward to this show. Anyone else in the Greater Seattle Area thinking of attending? It would be great to meet some fellow Seattle board members. Here is the info: Earshot Jazz Presents... Joe McPhee w/ Michael Bisio & Paul Harding Monday, August 1st at 8 pm The Tractor Tavern, Seattle, WA Admission: $12 general; $10 Earshot members, students 21+, and seniors.

Check out the Earshot Jazz Calendar.

Hey Peter, You should check out Bottleworks in Wallingford for a huge beer selection. Here is their Web site: Bottleworks My favorite beer also comes from Milwaukee, WI: Sprecher Special Amber. Unfortunately I can't find it out here in the PNW so I'll stick with Pabsts and the fine selection at Trader Joe's.

Hello John, Just sent you a PM with my nomination. Thanks! Alejandro

Check out the earshot jazz calendar at http://www.earshot.org/. Looks like Ellery Eskelin & Sylvie Courvoisier are playing there tonight. Nice place to see a show. Of all the weeks to visit the parents in Wisconsin it had to be this week...damn! Alejandro

Another vote for Roscoe. Just tried Mitchell's Ice Cream for the first time last Tuesday...amazing stuff.

I just received all four discs. Will listen to them this weekend. Thanks gslade and Rooster. Alejandro

Sounds great on my end also. Listening to broadcast on RealPlayer. Thanks! Alejandro

I know what you mean. I've been listening to it for about a half hour and I live over 1,000 miles away. It almost sounds like a Luc Ferrari piece.

If you don't mind vinyl, it looks like Cadence might have a few copies of Windward Passages. Link to Cadence Building Alejandro

Yeah! This is an amazing compilation! I picked it up a few weeks ago after hearing one of the clerks playing it a local record store. I pretty much played it non-stop for a week.

Hello Ghost, How are you doing? Check out Chapter 8 in Ted Gioia's West Coast Jazz...some interesting background information. Interesting guy, to say the least. Alejandro

Hello Rooster, I'm interested in receiving BFT# 25 and Woody Shaw discs. I can also help with distribution and burning if needed. Thanks! Alejandro

Thanks for the heads up. Made for a very enjoyable hour or so this morning. Here is a direct link to the archived webcast on KEXP: Non Grata on Sonarchy Radio Alejandro

It's the first disc of the Second Cycle (Volume Two). That cycle also contains the Godfather skit where Eugene Levy, playing Floyd the Barber, asks Don Caballero to take care of Opie. Looking forward to Cycle Three!

Yes, I also always return to the Casals. Very comforting.

I’m also partial towards the Pablo Casals interpretations. But, it's nice to have a few different recordings of these Suites.

Hello Paul, How's it going? Just sent you an e-mail. Thanks! Alejandro

Get the two Miff Mole CDs on Frog Records. Miff Mole: Slippin' Around Miff Mole: "Slippin' Around" - Again Great sound and great music. Alejandro

Thanks Gary. I take a look at that info this evening. I really want to get that Cecil Taylor concert saved. Alejandro

Thanks for the heads up on these programs. Listening to the Cecil Taylor show while a tie up a few loose ends at work before the holidays. This, might be a stupid question...but, what the hell, here goes: What is the best way to record these internet broadcasts? Thanks! Alejandro

Looks like Cadence currently has it in stock. One Too Many Salty Swift

Here is an interesting site that discusses iPod battery FAQs. Oddly enough it's called: iPod Battery FAQ

Hello Paul, Thanks for the heads up on your sale. Just sent you and e-mail with my order. Thanks! Alejandro

I just received my copy out here in Seattle and am currently listening to Disc one. Those first three songs with the Herbert Katz Quintet are quite a trip. The accompanying book is just amazing! I'm looking forward to hearing the La Cave recordings. Not much else I can add that hasn't already been mentioned...
