That's the ticket!

and you are the 'Master'.

Does not look like it, but I can't swear to it.

For me the means something like "WTF".

Gonna check this one out right now oops, gonna eat first (just got hollerd at) then spin the LRC Getz Hope the meal is good, the wife happy and the music suits you.

Not now... Aren't they ALL related? I know for sure they all know one another.

Yes, thanks for the remider.

Depressing no comments yet. I wish I could see both. Thanks for the information.

FWIW, the original artwork was b/w printed on a cream colored, textured stock. No type on the front. The type you see above was from the back of the "gatefold" cover. The current reissue is a better repro of the original intentions. The original was lovely but probably anti-sales.

From what I can tell, the Stan Getz "Gold, Happy 50th Stan" on Inner City (a 2 LP set) is the same album as the Steeplechase releases "Live At Montmartre, Vol.1" and "Vol. 2". I have more than 50 Getz albums. I can tell that this one is probably not one of "the best" from a critical analysis standpoint, but it is one of the Getz albums that I play most often. If you are interested, I would say that you should get it. It is not a compromised fusion album like some of his late 1970s material. It is a very enjoyable listen. The Inner City release was a reissue of the SteepleChase recording. Not great but really ok material.

Knew one in Chicago. Time to come out of the woods.

Ain't it wonderful when companies get bought out?

I'll tune into the tv movie on Nippleodeon.

Give it a day or two and I'm sure there are plenty who will come to its defense. but now you know where I stand. OK, I'll step in. Dan has a very narrow ([un]refined) taste. I enjoy both. FWIW, Dan stands with his feet in the mud.

At the end of your life do you really want to see yourself as a pebble in humanity's shoe?

If we lost Chris A 'cause of you we lost big time.

I knew we could count on you for insight.

Many folks on this board "want" a female singer.

I think evaluations of recordings depend on when you first heard them. Folks there at the time trump the others until the fog of "history" sez otherwise.

I just thought it was a silly "teen" display. Considering the age of the performer, it moves from silly to sad.

For crying out loud, GO! You could go to Oslo and sit in on an ECM recording session. You might be able to take Aric with you.

Ornette is a wonderful, amazing soul. Is Braxton next Laz?

So, next season Jack takes a shower and realizes all this year was a dream?

To get an idea of what Aura "might have been" check out the Millelborg/Knudsen/NHOP recording called Heart to Heart. It's on Storyville.
