  1. From my very personal Beethoven experience - number 1 Schnabel (by a long distance) - number 2 '50s Kempff (for an intelligent alt view) and finally the Vox Brendels (for a brash first go by a bright guy - I hate his later stuff). Individual sonatas by others are liked, especially Fischer. Much to discuss.
  2. Do Swiss radios have holes and a subtle but sharp oder? The title "Swiss Radio Days" has a sense of the past to it. Do they still have radios?
  3. A creamy nougat center.
  4. Why on earth would anyone be impressed by "centering"?
  5. And many of them are related to friends of Robert E Lee.
  6. Much like some recent Chicago Tribune headlines: "Motorcyclist killed after being struck by semi on I-290" "Man killed after being struck by Metra train on South Side" These post-mishap killings must stop!
  7. Thanks for sharing.
  8. Probably not. Those things are expensive.
  9. I can accept anything used in a creative way. Still waiting on a number of things.
  10. It is really easy to paint operators like Mills and Lester Melrose as bad guys. The reality is much more complex. These cd collections are worth searching for:
  11. He's been gone since early July. I miss him. Anyone know what happened?
  12. Third place would be a nice start.
  13. Yankees must go away.
  14. It might be called an root cellar in Texas Jim.
  15. I hated that band. Skills everywhere but I hated the band. For me they were the Liberace of NY big bands. I have tons of respect for the skills and the players, just hate the result.
  16. It was high school.
  17. check post #6.
  18. Don't know about that but the router is probably the problem. Mine is in the basement and I get signal on the 2nd floor and out in the yard.
  19. Besides a few things in iTunes, the only material I have on drives is/are my masters. This adds up when you save transfers of all the individual tracks from 2, 3, 4, 8, 16 and 24 track tapes. All the various permutations of mixes and edits are saved in 24 bit. Have not checked the bit count but... And I have one drive at home and another at Delmark where I do most of my work.
  20. Waited all day for someone to post this. If I missed it I am sorry. He was a wonderful player and interesting personality. He can be heard on Joseph Jarman's Song For and with Fred Anderson on Dark Day and Milwaukee Tapes.
  21. At this point WM is an important figure in the "market". If you like him post positive things. At this time enough negative stuff has been posted. Unless he wants to give me a night at Lincoln Center I don't care. This is almost a 30 year fight against the "retro" jazz. They won and the folks not agreeing can sneak off into the corner and do something better. Please do that.
  22. Give me a reason to read it.
