A shout out to Buddy Bolden Sept 6

Pendulum is one of my favorite live recordings (David Baker). I have the original vinyl. Just today I learned that this is now released on CD with more cuts from the same date (at the Vanguard of course). This little bit of info made my day! Anyone here have this expanded version yet?

Heard a song on Musak lately that surprised you? When I was in upstate New York in the early 80s when a member of the West Point Jazz Knights (that is an entirely different topic there), I overheard an arrangement of Moment's Notice in a department store. I could hardly believe what I was hearing. I stopped pushing my shopping cart on the spot and listened to the music. And the arrangement wasn't bad!

Pancho and Lefty's I know Dos Charros. Good food. P&L is closer to our house. And their food is very reasonable (and good).

The wife and I went to our favorite mexican restaurant earlier tonight. We tolerate the solo guitarists who play there for tips. But tonight it was an entirely different situation. They had a guitarist and his wife singer/pianist. Okay fine I thought when we walked in. Then they started to play. OMG, I know that drum machines have come a long way. I only wish these two knew it too. The rhythm was coming out of her cheap ass keyboard. Then he started to play. Okay, his rhythm accompaniment was fine. But then he soloed. Grrrrrr. I don't raise the bar too high when it comes to duos playing for tips in a restaurant on a saturday night. I assume that if this is the best they manage to book, they must be hobbyist/weekend warriors. But this guy's lines were downright dreadful! I tried to explain to my wife musical improvisation and how musicians strive to develop a vocabulary. No need. She too was not entertained. This was one tine when we didn't linger over the margaritas. "Check please" Sometimes I wish restaurant owners would just opt for no music rather than hiring any Tom Dick and Mary. Oh well. I made it home without having an aneurism. so I guess it wasn't all that bad.

Is anyone here familiar with Grammy rules regarding submissions? I was told that if a previously formally released CD is reissued on a different label, it then becomes eligible for submission.

My dad was at that game too Jim. He was in the stands on the same side of the field where the tackler came off the bench. FOLD!

Anyone in here have the Innovative Technology USB turntable, model Itut-400? Online reviews are mixed. Thanks

Say it isn't so Lance.....oh you already did that.

Fascinating reflection on the career of troubled and gifted MLB pitcher Dock Ellis. It still baffles me how anyone could perform at such a high level as to pitch a no hitter while tripping. http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/eticket/story?page=Dock-Ellis Something about getting the hell out of one's way and tapping into the subconscious, perhaps. I look forward to the upcoming "dockumentary" (as they spell it) I did shoot 13 under par on a miniature golf 18 hole course in college on acid. The only time I ever tripped. 3x in one weekend; my lost weekend.

Encouraging story

Wow. Another on the have to have list

While browsing in the old Tower records in Manhattan, I was looking at some Kenton sound checks that were released on LP. I was surprised to see a San Salvador on guitar!
