I thought that was your involuntary response to a bad taco.

They were/are on lp/cd versions of Here and There.

too "sophisticated" for mode.

I heard (and got) Butera before I heard of Jacquet, Phillips and the rest of JATP tenors. I also saw him in person first. This was in the '50s and my youth. Sorry he's gone but happy he was there.

You're talking about hot wings, right? never eat hot wings. they don't even let chickens fly.

Eat 'em as fast as you can. Then pour gas on your poop.

Braves get Nate McLouth from Pittsburgh! dang.

For what it's worth, this was announced during the Cubs broadcast on WGN radio tonight.

She was a strong artist and nice lady. Sorry to hear of her passing.

you are thinking of the wrong guy.

Overly bright distortion - Spaulding especially.

They (all of us) need incoming funds to finance new releases. You are part of the solution or problem. Folks are in bad shape out there.

Nice piece. Margasak did Josh proud. Looking forward to the recording.

The Bowie set will be divided by session (a trio disc and a quartet disc) in session order.

No material on the reissues that wasn't in the box. Eventually all material in the box will be reissued on four single discs and one double. All the material is being remastered - technical advances in the last 16 years made it seem worthwhile. YMMV. David makes a reasonable point about some of the extra material but one with which I ultimately disagreed. It is a situation in which I am damned if I do or don't. I have already had a couple of complaints from customers who purchased the single disc (Japanese) version of Numbers 1&2 and were upset they didn't get all the material from those sessions. I do think the box as a concept causes one to lose focus on the individual sessions and feel some of the "new" music in the box didn't receive the attention it deserved. Anyway, I opted for all over less.

Still amazed he wasn't banned for an ugly post directed at CA a while back. I completely understand Chris being outraged by his continued presence here.

That's how you develop self image and set price.

Price and self image.

Astute studio guys in LA have fingers in the wind to stay alive. You are over thinking.
