And that's what's wrong with our system.

This whole deal seems to be a "post 1970" thing. Some rock might have pre-dated the records mentioned.

Agree in principle, but don't think "all" are necessarily needed to form a balanced picture of Grant's body of work. Obviously, consider each opinion carefully. I certainly don't think you need "everything" but in this case a "first date" seems more important than anything by someone deriving a style from that artist.

If I dare say what DP probably meant, don't buy any imitation until you have all the originals.

I received promo copies of all these lps and gave them away.

I hate to give away a trade secret, but check out Newbury Comics... D'oh! Kalo is right... I've harvested quite a few titles from there of late. That's the place! While you have to factor in the different shipping charges, many times discs from Newbury are often cheaper via the Amazon site. I always compare.

Haven't done it in years. are you wearing them tinted contacts? Nah. I couldn't find the "green eye removal" setting on the darn camera. Bet most of the guys here have to pay women for this kind of treatment.

Hooray!!!! We aren't #1 anymore.

Haven't done it in years.

I would question the hardware.

Yeah, I don't really understand the problem. "Artists", choose between what they believe and what they think the audience wants. The choice determines whether the " " comes off.

Well.......................I think he's a complete asshole and his playing drives me nuts. One time while asking Benny Carter about his desires for a big band we were assembling for him, Benny said "you always do fine - just don't hire Ron Carter".

You have no idea how hard it is for me to say I agree with Horny.

Welcome back.

Welcome. Glad everything is ok.

Guilty as charged. Next up - Miles, Monk, Ellington, Archie Shepp, & Sonny Rollins. Yup.

Ah, the music of our youth revisited.

After about 30 years, last week we got rid of our tank. Gave the last two fish away to a single mom with two kids. Now we are free.

Correct. Don't know about Howell. Roscoe told me that after this was issued the group would only allow 3 members on a date without getting "leader" pay.

Next, America moves on to the Paris Hilton story. We have friggin' wars and genocide going on. Our country sponsors some, ignores the rest and the populace is caught up in relative "small stuff".

Possibly 'cause it was not an Art Ensemble session. They were pissed when it came out under their "name".

Outstanding. It's been 37 years since I had that feeling. Enjoy.

AND it is rarely "just a blues".

It's just a blues. I just played it for the 4th time. Wayne is wonderful.
