Having lost 60 lbs via healthy diet and restraint, I'm inclined to say so.

Nah, we insult dickheads too. Didn't know you're fat too.

Looks to me like Berigan needs to get control of his finances. Maybe a private (read "personal") account will save his ass. B-)

All of us see more.

REALLY STUPID.

Without thinking, must be the Musicraft side.

Crappy, flappy, chappy, dappy, or HAPPY BDAY! Your choice. B-)

That's the first one that came to mind. Geez guys, I first heard that in 1969 (on Straight).

You Robert Palmer fans kill me. B-)

So much mumbo jumbo. Some of this stuff is beyond belief.

Are those 4" heels Chris?

I probably have more Johnny E on disc than any other group member. Keep it up Mr. E

Very interesting character development and a couple of sly twists. I felt manipulated a couple of times but that was ok. The sum was much better than the parts. As we left the theater I heard the guy behind me say "That's the worst movie I ever saw". Geez, it contained sex and a car crash - wtf did he want? In the news: Sandra Oh has filed for divorce from Alexander Payne. B-) She's out there guys.

Just some fashion models hired by Reid Miles, or Dick Van Dyke and Mary Tyler Moore.

It was recorded in '69 and was issued in the '70 or '71 - not sure. If there was a delay it was caused by label finances, not musical considerations. Anthony recorded this material in his apartment on a "home recorder" and delivered it to Delmark (to fulfill his contractual obligation and get some bread) when he was leaving for Europe. The tapes are/were pretty rough and I took a lot of crap from some poster at JC for the quality of the sound. He said something like "the label cheaped out" on the reissue, but I assure you there were no economic restraints on the project. There are a number of overloads, distortions, etc and we tried Cedar and NoNoise on various sections but I decided not to use them in the end. What you hear is a good representation of what's on the tapes.

'tis irritating to see whining about service on $5/6 cds. Been a BMG member for about 15 years (2 memberships) and a Yourmusic member since the $4.99 special offer. Forget the b/o, shipped crap and enjoy the really cheap cds you get.

Please don't ask mom and dad "Are we there yet?".

Very, very fine. After all these years it is great to see some of your work.

No prob.

Lazy Bastard responds with a "yes".

Well, see, that's your problem right there. Smoking stunts your growth. I knew something was "stunting" this boy! ALSO - time to stop the allowance.

My guess is Chris Connor.

For a "representation of the time" and great friggin' music, the "Old Man Blues" from "Check and Double Check" is priceless. Sadly, I sent my tape of this to a friend (on the board) and it was lost. I'll get a DVD soon. I would say any available Ellington is worth the money.

Sorry I missed it. Where is it? Big Al, I meant all the reissues you listed in your original post for this thread! OOOHHHHHHHH, now I get it! You meant that they had all already been released on your side of the pond! Some of us Americans, especially us Texans, are a little slow on the draw this AM! Don't want to search for it but we did talk about these releases about a month ago. I remember giving praise to Sweets and the Jam Session disc.

Just finished the first disc of the Hill Select. First Mosaic I've played in about 6 months but it was in my box this morning.
