I think Kevin is busy packing for his move to Kansas.

So......you are saying you have not had fun since you got married?

Not wanting to be greedy, I wish I remembered more about sessions I attended and the ones I produced. I do remember during one of the sessions for Roscoe Mitchell's "Sound", a phone call was transfered to the booth. As a result I walked into the studio and told Lester Lashley he was a "proud new papa". Lester L (fantastic musician) then pointed to Lester Bowie and said "tell HIM".

If it's not your way, how do you know it's difficult?

Does a napkin full count, or do you need another participant? Lot'sa potential rules in the 21st Century. YOU need to define "cheating" since you brought it up.

Not an easy question to answer since you didn't list the rules. Some (many) on this board may whack off and never tell their wife/husband. That probably counts unless you set some parameters. I live in a small "tourist/manufacturing" town and the locals don't have a clue about my job, interests, etc.

For the last 20 years we've lived in a place with (maybe) 3 channels without cable, a dish or 100 pounds of steel on the roof. We currently get around 40 channels on our "expanded basic" program. I do not need Fox News any more than I need the knitting channel.

No problem - I pleased to have that cheap set off the market. B) I don't want to leave the impression, from my previous post, I sell regularly sell 20 sets a day. Orders of this size only occur a few times a year.

Still available - I have around 250 left, but shipped 20 today.

Never Fear Jazz Is Here! You should here the original.

Right. Steve is such a clown.

Another reason to have an inexpensive system with only one speaker. If single mike recording is good, single speaker must be good too.

Don't ask me for proof, but it has been my understanding (for circa 30 years) this tape was delivered to BN to fulfill Freddie's obligations so he could sign with Atlantic. This being the case, Alfred probably issued it to recoup his investment.

Larry gives Joe more credit than I do.

Anyone looking for the Arnizzle recording Jim has been listening to contact me. I'll sell mine cheap. I think it sucks. B)

Birfland was my favorite club - back in the day.

Looks like a Konitz/Horo night - quartet first (w/Dave Cliff, Peter Ind & Al Levitt), then the 2 lp set with Solal. For some reason Lee's overdubbing on Blues Sketch really bugs me tonight. Very fine date though.

Geez....a friend of my former roomie said a buddy heard them there in May. He says his friend has a tape and says he'll send me a copy. I'll get back to you.

It may well be a dandy book. I don't know 'cause I ain't seen it - I do have to admit the word complete (in the title) is a red flag for me. If it looks good to you, buy it. Please understand my perspective - electrical equipment is dandy, but I am haunted by those for whom this is obsessive. Same for the fanatic record collectors - "I have 92,000 jazz lps and will pay a fortune for the 3 I don't have". But you need to understand that in these instances it is "mostly" people knowing nothing about the reality of their subject. Music first, reproduced decently. I KNOW WHAT GREAT SOUND IS! Professionally, I have worked in both the analogue and digital domain for 38 a total of years. When I work on a project I am dealing with equipment beyond your dreams. When I started the state of the art was the 3 track machine - Ampexes all. My main point is that "collectors, audiophiles" and other experts set standards and rules having nothing to do with reality. AND some of the "lore" is bogus.

Hmmmm...., interesting. Then what the hell is this all about? Care to revise your statement? Does Clifton live above the garage on the left?

Yup, I knew that. Brain fart.

I first bought this in '62 and still play it. I wish it included the Columbia recording of All About Rosie (most of the same players 6 months later). After listened to the Jazz Workshop disc I usually go on a '50s Russell kick and dig out "Rosie" and the Hal McKusicks.

Mr Richardson? If he had to go "splat" anywhere, I glad it was in my home state. B)

It was issued in the Connoisseur series a few years ago. AND the domestic Conn issue had 2 bonus alternates.

Are we talking about corn chips?
