  1. I used to look at what BruceH was recommending As for jazz, the threads on the board such as 1 artist/1 record, List your favorite albums from xxx are helpful for a start, but elaborate comments in the Artist Corner or in threads such as What are you listening to (original thread and current) /What vinyl... are very informative. As for non jazz, I much prefer RYM than Discogs (the rating system and the comments on Discogs are pretty much junk, even though I found some helpful World music lists there). As for classical music, I tend to read talkclassical. As for movies, IMDB offers a lot of connaisseur lists, but I still miss the original Movie thread from the BigO board, a goldmine of information for a newcomer. Overall, lists can be wonderful to discover new artists, but I find proactive searches/reads more rewarding. And recently, I tend to focus more on listening to my current jazz collection than systematically broadening my horizons, so much records I love and own that I spin so little. But that's another issue I guess

  8. Earlier today: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/b09tcdx9 I have browsed a bunch of Jazz Monthly lately. Enjoyed their articles, reviews, interviews and photographs. Was nice learning more from Val Wilmer in this interview. NP The Brothers Candoli: Sextet – Jazzin' Around!!!
  9. I purchased Out to Lunch! and Birth of the Cool a few years ago at Uniqlo (Shanghai Daning), pretty happy about it. Way way too many tshirts at the moment so I won't buy from the recent BN batch. I quite like this design found on the interweb:

    Same. my favorite Gato is from the post-3rdWorld and pre-Ruby period. The outputs of Pharoah in the 70s are my favorite (Izipho Zam, Elevation, Live at the East, Journey, soft spot for the India's Pharoah). Still have to listen to Wisdom and Love in us All from that period. But I can find a record I really enjoy from Pharoah in each and every decade. Same preferences would apply to Shepp for me.
