DeepDiscount and ImportCDs will likely be substantially cheaper.

Yeah, that's just silly. I am hoping that Amazon will get it for less than that. But right now they're only taking orders for download/streaming.

I saw this and have to admit I did not think she would have been my age (well, in another 33 days). As I think about it though it might be that "What's Happening" was watched mostly in syndication in the 80s, producing the illusion that she was younger than she was. RIP, and sympathy to Mr. Pelt.

I don´t know what I posted 3 years ago

Danielle Spencer, typically acknowledged as the first female back child actress, has died at the age of 60. Her breakout role was as Dee in the TV show 'What's Happening!!', which aired from 1976-79 on ABC. She left television to become a veterinarian. Her brother is Jazz trumpeter Jeremy Pelt.

It is always a large treat to have more recordings by Horace Silver issued.

Blue Note doesn't delay the CD. It's also available for pre-order... for $19.98 for a single CD! In this day and age, putting a $20 price tag on a CD is ridiculous. Next they'll complain that no one is buying CDs anymore.

Now this: Jimmie Rowles - Grandpaws (Choice, 1976) with Buster Williams and Billy Hart

When will the CD be available for pre-order?

Third or fourth or maybe even fifth favorite Silver front line but I am sure I am in on this.

Next up: OJC pressing

That Sam Rivers Florida Big Band was incredible. Wish I’d had the chance to hear them live. Whole band sounded like they were playing as if their lives depended on it.
