Chuck Nessa Posted December 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Many folks seem to have missed our vinyl release of Air Time. This is one of the finest sounding recordings I have made and the reissue is very fine. I recently played it for Paal Nilssen-Love and he picked up a copy to study Steve McCall.

JSngry Posted December 20, 2017 Report Share Posted December 20, 2017 Dude, you only asking $22.00 for it. How do you expect to sell them for that little bit? Up it to, like, $50 and autograph each copy and then you'll sell out before Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and I rejected the first pressing (and ate it) so if I sell all 550 copies, I might break even. I just can't relate to the crazy prices.

JSngry Posted February 12, 2018 Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 I wish it would stop being ok to dress casual to the point of, oh, I'm coming over with a sixpack, let's watch the game and chill. Rosoce's not even dressing "up" here, and he's still the baddest cat there, the other people look like students, even the older ones. Don't get me wrong, a part of me, BIG part, gets it. But there's a part of me that still says, hey, represent motherfuckers, come correct. Not casting a first stone or anything, can't do that, but...just sayin'. Casual can still be sharp, if you got the ear, have the eye too, that's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Nessa Posted May 19, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Yes, I have been aware for 2 days. Somehow the DNS was corrupted and it can take up to 72 hours to repair it. I had to "unconnect" from it to start the process. Thanks. I did post about this on Facebook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
