Yep. But I am going even more backwards, and I don't believe this is a bad thing:

Well, Montreal made it a little interesting there at the end...

Lols, how did I skip Warne Marsh! I've already moved ahead (or back) to Jackie. This system isn't working...

Stock up on Warne Marsh!

Final! Saskatchewan Roughriders...25 Montreal Alouettes.................17

Lols, I know I'm doomed listening to music this way, maybe by Christmas, I'll hear some Mingus.

other than the Grant, I have all those that you've posted on LP. Excellent.

This sleeve is wicked! Trying to work my way back to Mingus (I think I'm ripping off a Captain and Tennille lyric)...why are there so many greats whose names start with M? McLean, Mobley, Morgan, Mulligan...frustrating...and I just got to McCann.

I've been running low on storage space for a while now, so it's almost a good thing that Blue Note took this weird stance on their hot cuts. They've saved me a bunch of money.

I'm not a drummer myself, so I can't explain it technically, but I love that undulating, heavy-bottom drumming. In that sense, Mickey Roker, Ed Soph, and Hugh Walker are drummers I really love.

The gallery concerts were fine as expected, with some rare music that I will most likely never hear again in my life. The format is nice: six programs of 20 minutes each, all of them perfomed twice, in three galleries, so you can har a total of four different performances hopping from place to place. We chose pieces by C.P.E. Bach and Carl Heinrich Graun for two violas and harpsichord, a solo harpsichord recital with Froberger, Sweelinck, D. Scarlatti and Buxtehude, and third a set of quartets for oboe and strings and Gaßmann and Druschetzky, two rather undersetimated Haydn/Mozart contemporaries. As if this wasn't enough, this afternoon we attended the fourth and final concert of a series dedicated to the lesser known sides of Georg Philip Telemann. Songs published in a magazine as exemplary examples for basso continuo practice, some so-called "moral cantatas" with humorous texts, and concertos and suites for flute and harpsichord, usually performed as trios, but also possible for just two players with the harpsichordist playing two parts at once. Georg Poplutz was the perfect tenor voice for this, who confessed enjoying this welcome secular music where sacred music is what he most often is called for. Daniela Lieb and Eva Maria Pollerus, both professors at the Frankfurt music high school, were great as always. Pollerus brough her great sounding copy of a Zell harpsichord, the perfect instrument for this music. We are lucky to have such great performers in our region, and this month is packed with great concert programs - I consider going to the Clavier-Abend Monday night, where students of harpsichord and fortepiano present what they are working on.

Yes, they are both good.

I'm headed out now to watch the game. The contest closes at 6:00 pm eastern. Good luck everyone, and thanks for playing!

Thanks for researching and posting. This kind of sharing information is what makes this forum so great.
