My preorder arrived yesterday. I'm about halfway through it, it's mostly easy reading, but I can tell that it was assembled/ edited by a non-musician. There's a comprehension/coherency issue that is possibly going to bewilder people who have no experience with a saxophone. Detailed discussions about technique cut away to philosophical commentary without warning, and the go right back again. Still, if you do know something about a saxophone, there is some wonderful stuff in here (especially about the potential for a mystical experience with multiphonics). And the philosophy shows a consistent and expanding thread from beginning to end. A patient reader will enjoy this, I thinks. An impatient reader...Sonny Rollins is probably not for impatient people, readers or otherwise.

A lot of America has been built horizontally, not vertically. Wide open spaces and all that. This is especially true in the American Southwest. Why monetize one acre when you can monetize 10?

What kind of "real sugar" would one expect in a root beer if not cane sugar? Am I missing out on something? Please advise. IBC is great, and has been easily available in supermarkets here for decades now. There are "craft" root beers that maybe have better flavor, but they cost a lot and availability is spotty at best. I mean, hell, it's root beer. IBC tips the top for me!!!

Texas Tick - Oh No You Don't!!!

Flick Dingerella and Tom - Your Ass Has Opened My Eyes!!!

Found this on Spotify. It's just a bit messy, but a least that much more again fun!!!!

I believe that the guitarist on this record, Lee Robinson, ended up in Dallas doing studio work and playing jazz with Fred Crane, Peyton Park, Jimmy Zitano, etc

Wow, I've got mine on and couldn't see that!

I don't recognize any of those records.

A millionaire leader should be able to pay for better players?

That could be interesting...

RIP Whitey Herzog. They might still make 'em like that (Ron Washington?), but if they do, where are they?

A most graceful morph of the old West Coast Jazz into the new 👌

See's Candy must be quite the jazz lovers. They sponsored Riverwalk Jazz for years!
