  1. Past hour
  2. You mean to say you're wondering if some members would be prepared to put their mother-in-law in hock in order to afford this set?
  3. A cool morning, going to be another pretty but cool day. Starting off with the final, 7th disc to this very interesting Mosaic Records cd set. The Complete Woody Herman Decca, Mars And MGM Sessions (1943-1954)
  4. Daredevil is my favorite of the TV series from Marvel, the seasons before "Born Again" were very good, and I think the second season of "Born Again" was excellent in how it mirrored current events in America. . . and ended more optimistically than we are likely to see happen in the near future. the violence is a bit extreme but that is part of the nature of the content, and I like that it is not shied away from. The series is well filmed. I've seen about a half an hour of "Wonder Man" so far. Gues it gets better.
  5. Eliot Zigmund Quartet - Breeze (Steeplechase)
  6. Today
  7. Listening to the first three albums by the most classic among classic Spanish hard rock bands from the 80s:
  8. PA (in this case U.K., not Andorran) label to the rescue if you are so inclined:
  9. Ego is my favorite Lifetime record. No McLaughlin, but Ted Dunbar is great. More subdued due to the different guitarist, but the compositions are really good. There is a recording of Lifetime where Larry had to lay out due to a problem with the venue's organ. There is a bassist but it is most likely Dave Holland, not Jack Bruce. I cannot share this and it will never come out. I should not even be talking about it.
  10. CD-R? For shame. That is not showing respect for Monk.
  11. Curious if any members are returning beer bottles and pop cans to buy this set.
  12. John Handy - Projections with Mike Nock and Michael White, soon to be half of The Fourth Way *****
  13. For sure. I love Savoy CDs and I've never seen Jazz/Star Eyes in the wild. Kind of pricey on Discogs. I probably had the Jenkins/Jordan/Timmons album in my cart multiple times but would always remove it before finalizing a purchase. I'll snag it one day.
  14. A fugly cover indeed. That album (albeit CD version w. original cover art) has been on my want list for a long time. If you like the BN, I recommend the Jenkins/Jordan/Timmons on Prestige. Sadly, I have nothing to add regarding Mr. Jenkins's biography.
  15. Recently watched the first season as they put it on Hulu. Very Law & Order-esque (a good thing!), only with superheroes and villains. Not as refined as Wonder Man (to compare to another Marvel series), and shockingly violent at times. I don't remember Daredevil taking that many blades and gunshots and shaking them off in the comics. but then again I haven't read those in decades.
  16. I don't have Jazz Eyes or Star Eyes but something went awry with this cover art selection. The only Jenkins I have is the Blue Note with Kenny Burrell. Fantastic record and seems to always fly under the radar.
  17. Well this has confused me. I have that Esoldun release shown above as well. From 1988! May as well give it a listen. I won't be buying a CD-R
  18. My copy, the 1993 Japanese issue, shows it as Jazz Eyes.
  19. Has anyone heard the 2011 Esoteric Recordings remaster of this? One reason I've always had trouble with it is the poor quality of the recording. Is it significantly better? Here's their description: +++ The Tony Williams Lifetime: Emergency! CD RE-PRESS: CD ORIGINALLY RELEASED IN 2011 REMASTERED UK CD EDITION OF THE CLASSIC DEBUT ALBUM BY TONY WILLIAMS’ LIFETIME – FEATURING JOHN McLAUGHLIN and LARRY YOUNG BOOKLET WITH FULLY RESTORED ARTWORK & NEW ESSAY Esoteric Recordings are pleased to release the first album by the legendary jazz / rock / fusion outfit Tony Williams’ Lifetime. The group was founded by former Miles Davis drummer Tony Williams in 1969 out of his desire to fuse the influences of modern jazz and rock music. Recruiting legendary British guitarist John McLaughlin and organist Larry Young, Williams recorded the album “Emergency!”. It was a stunning and seminal work that divided critics in both jazz and rock but is now rightly regarded as being a groundbreaking work. This Esoteric Recordings edition is remastered and features the original album artwork and an informative essay.
  20. This was actually released (7 tracks) here in Australia back in 1993 - only missing the intro
  21. Jazz Eyes was the original album title, changed to Star Eyes when reissued a couple of decades later.
