Sloppy reading. Sorry.

BMG and/or Sony must have opened some operation in your neighborhood.

Obviously no love for Hardman, Byrd, etc. Blakey made a bunch of records on other labels.

I'm not sure I get the distinction... I think Lee is the better brass player, I think KD is the superior musical thinker.

For "music" I select KD, for "trumpet playing" I select LM. BFD. The end result (notice I did not say profit) is music.

So, is that a Catesta truck? Do you profit from other folks problems?

Shame on all ('cept John L) for ignoring Herschel Evans and the rest of you for ignoring Buddy Tate (unless I missed something)! These guys defined the genre in the '30s and '40s. Everyone else ................................Oh, is this a '50s/60s thread?

put off by your initials but enjoy your posts. all the best.

Pleased to see the Freeman date(s) get some props. This is the one I will buy first since I don't have the 2 original lps any more. I hope MC moves into the Universal catalog for some issues of this type including Bud Freeman (Dot and Grand Award) and Pee Wee Russell (Dot).

Ever the salesman.

So how many 5-10 cd sets have you purchased?

So, you are a lurker here. Please jump in more often. Don't you wish Henry was 22 now. I'd guess he might think awhile about that.

Let us be rigid and set some standards! Forget all the rest of the crap, we need our life experiences to meet some standard. Uniformity is good for all. My answer is Yes, No, Sometimes, front, back and mixed. Depends on the player(s), session(s) and audience(s). Do you satisfy the biggest checkbook or................

We were married in 1963. I hug her every day (and thank my lucky stars) and that will probably be it. I sent flowers to her workplace once and it became a $$ contest with others. Won't do that again. I lucked out beyond belief.

Geez, the sun came up this morning and it was cloudy. I hope that doesn't mean a storm will follow and natural disasters after that and then the end of the friggin' world! Get a grip boys and girls.

A little less alcohol and coming won't take so long.

Glad you're happy.

I think the Horos are overestimated because they are hard to find and few know the music. Relax.

Mr Lowe. Didn't you get the memo? Attention spans are short in America at this time. 9 friggin' cds and it is only volume one! A single disc covering 1492-1950 would have been plenty. AND you expect us to friggin' read something? I just hope the commercials are good.

Sorry my posting occupied so much of the thread. It is a great device but I have a huge problem with the "health industry" as it exists. Many culprits - greedy MDs, hospitals and clinics wanting to maximize income, lawyers looking for clients, the US government trying to thwart same, etc.

How's the saying go? "Even a blind dog.....finds the fire hydrant... (No, that's not it. Nevermind. You get my point) Somehow after reading my earlier post, I feel like a cast iron utility on a street corner.

You must work for some politician. The "spin" is dizzying.

No comment.

I'm shocked an industry veteran would take such a position.
