You must be speaking of the lps - there are 2 bonus tracks on the cd version.

Then a 48 hour deadline is out of whack. Time to set priorities and reasonable steps - not deadlines.

Why LA?

Thanks. I used it for the Mosaic Turretine set - I didn't have digital versions of 4 titles and it worked out. Thanks.

I should mention Roscoe says he has a new Rogue Art release coming soon. Did not ask for details.

This reminds me - I tried to send a PM to Hans to thank him for birthday wishes and discovered I was blocked. This has bothered me for a while - what gives?

Roscoe has never been an easy listen. He's been a challenge since I first heard him 45 years ago. That's why I like him so much. Like Ellington, Cecil Taylor, Beethoven and a few others, he keeps my mind working to keep up. I love that. I can understand others not wanting to work on that journey. To the recording at hand: I have not had it and only ordered it this weekend - it is to be delivered tomorrow. I had not ordered it 'cause Mr. Mitchell frequently sends me freebies of his new releases - I am still digesting the last Rogue Art set (Contact w/ David Wessel - cd + dvd) and Spectrum with Muhal and the Janacek Philharmonic on Mutable. I also hesitate posting about his releases for fear of some calling them tainted by my close relation.

Well, it was before Miles went electric.

After a phone conversation with a good friend, I'm wondering if dealing with elderly parents is always a test.

I would guess all "brilliant ideas" at PJ came from Bock.

My old copy had a gold cover with black. Don't remember the label color.

Ain't no best. Just a couple thousand opinions. Ain't that great! Lots of favorites though.

Can't comment about getting a blow (out in the middle of AZ or any other state), but it's good to hear from you.

Finally watched the (recorded) final episode of Chicago Code. At least they finished the stories but they compressed half a season into one hour. My head was spinning.

Nice to see is has been officially announced.

\ edit to add: I have had this since it was first issued but had not listened for over 20 years. It was engineered by Malcolm Addey in the Vanguard studio in August of 1984. This is probably the worst representation of Clifford's sound I have ever heard. What a shame.

Hawk was in Europe then. Out of sight, out of mind.
