Ugh. Sorry to hear this. Terrible news. NP:

This is an interesting / confusing discussion. I have friends that are successful artists / painters. They tell me the they get nothing when their paintings are resold on the secondary market. Apparently they can only "write-off" the cost of their materials. One has a "side deal" with a gallery where they pay him a (very) modest amount when one of his paintings is resold. I'm not an expert or an accountant / lawyer, but that's what I've been told.

Just read that Sheila Jordan is in hospice. Sad news. I decided to spin this one.

LaBrassBanda - Danzn (Universal)

I wasn't aware that it had been reissued either -- until I saw it on Dusty Groove's site. According to Discogs, it was reissued in January of this year. I'm super-stoked that it's available again. I'm not a Japanese jazz expert, but it's definitely one of the most compelling J-jazz albums I've ever heard. EDIT The down-side of the reissue? Like many Japanese reissues, it's not cheap. It cost me nearly $50. OTOH, the one original Kiso listed on Discogs is priced at $1,649. 😬

How does an artist become eligible to be covered by this law?

Keith Jarrett “Life Between the Exit Signs” Vortex/Warner 24 bit cd Japan Keith Jarrett’s first session recorded as a leader, with Charlie Haden and Paul Motian.

yeah, they did have one on the books.

IIRC (and I often don't) California has a similar a"visual artists' rights" law.

Gotcha.

Very compressed and slightly edgy sound.

not a specific lawsuit, but adoption of it in the US is constantly being argued between artists, galleries, and auction houses. It has gained some ground overseas.

@jazzbo, what aspect(s) of their "house sound" don't appeal to you? I'm just curious.

I’m definitely still following MLB. Yankees have done what they seem to do so often in the 2020s—get off to a hot start in the first two months of the season and then struggle to play .500 ball the rest of the way. I have a couple of friends and family members who are Brewers fans, so it’s been fun to see them enjoying the Crew’s remarkable ongoing surge. Also happy that the Dodgers aren’t on track to win 120 games or some such. Interestingly enough, only one team is above .600 (Milwaukee, .624) and only two teams are below .400 (the White Sox at .364 and Colorado bottoming out at .256). I don’t know how the parity compares to recent baseball history, but it seems pretty competitive for 2025 as we hit the season’s 3/4 mark.
