Chuck Nessa

I replaced my crappy Jazzland pressing with a Japanese Victor lp years ago and live with that.

Now in stock: Two new live recordings from the Peter Brotzmann Chicago Tentet. OD12067 "American Landscapes 1" OD12068 "American Landscapes 2" Both discs contain new material by Peter Brotzmann from the 2006 European tour. Peter Brotzmann - Mats Gustafsson - Ken Vandermark :reeds Joe McPhee : trumpet & alto Hannes Bauer : trombone Per-Ake Holmlander : tuba Fred Lonberg-Holm : cello Kent Kessler : bass Paal Nilssen-Love - Michael Zerang : drums

Agree with you on Rough House Blues...but not Lush Life which I find to be gorgeous and Lou's tone on ballads is a pure joy. I like "Lush life" very much - but I don't think the setting was quite right for Lou. MG I think is was fine.

Indeed!

The complete set was available for about 15 years. Not bad.

Some new titles worth exploring.

Don't know anything "darker" than this.

Looks like Trane to me. It is Trane from a series of studio portraits by Chuck Stewart.

Chambers and anyone is dandy.

Yes.

interesting change of fonts.

Art Pepper "Roadgame" on Galaxy.

I really dislike that series of "artsy-fartsy" Riverside covers. They seem badly pretentious. YMMV.

Do not let "shedding" tape touch the heads - it will ruin them. The tape can usually be saved by baking.

Reissue of Kenny Drew's Riverside titled "This Is New".

They are called headphones.

Used to buy quarts of Blatz beer and pour it into tuna cans. Empty the cans of dead slugs in the morning. Those suckers were killing Ann's hostas. Stopped misusing beer and use something called "Escar-Go" now. Sprinkle the stuff on the plants and the little suckers die a slow death.

If you are really buying lps for dummies, I have some stuff.

Speaking of autos, I used to have this wallpaper:

Cleveland made 4 lps for Emarcy.

It's 9:14 here.

The drugs?
