Thanks! It's just a matter of time.

I recently got "The Bridge" from yourmusic--mighty fine disc.

I've had this set on my waiting-for-running-low list for quite some time. Maybe you'll help to push it there for me.

It's pretty obvious that for some folks, the fix is in.

I'd love to see Odean Pope (but won't happen. I have seen him a few times through the years), and hope to get to Organissimo despite family scheduling conflicts (negotiations commencing). You'd BETTER get there, or else Jim, Joe, and Randy are gonna start thinking you're just my alter ego.

So what's your secret? I think they were afraid of all the money they'd lose if I quit because of a hike! Hmmmmmmm . . . . . . . I just tried logging in as "Lonson Jazzbo" to see what would happen, and the price went up to $8 .99/disc!

If Alan's going, then I'm stayin' home.

So what's your secret?

Happy Birthday! And thanks for all the Zweitausendeins alerts! (Although the wife wasn't too thrilled about them. )

I'm just excited for Jim Alfredson, who's on this thread right now and who'll be in Philly himself next week. Oh wait--he's bringing his wife.

And it's in PHILLY! And more importantly, the girl is hot! And she's in PHILLY!

And it's in PHILLY!

Of course you do. You live in Manhattan. You expect to pay a lot to get a little.

Didn't think Chew-Chew's keyboard had all those funny punctuation keys. And there's WAY too many correctly and appropriately capitalized words for that to be him. Perhaps in his "chewy" or "aric" personae, but I'm thinking more of his "ContemporarySFLady" (or whatever it was) schtick. He has such a varied repertoire.

Anyone seen chewy lately? Isn't he due to be trying on a new alter ego right about now?

Full article.

In other words, "to whom do you listen?"

Maybe the $5.99 deal only applies to those who originally signed up at the $4.99 price?

Didn't happen for me. I guess they don't love me as much as they do you.

I entered that Coltrane thing too--didn't win, though (AFAIK). And I spent a shitload of money on that goddamn Summer Blowout Sale! Congrats to those who won!

Looks like we'll have to start calling you "Scoop" tranemonk. Just skimmed it briefly, but that Piano Boogie Woogie and Blues Select looks sweet! Also, Chu Berry is now scheduled for February.

I've had the Jazztet set for a while now--one of my favorites. I am, however, still on the fence about the Capitol set--at the moment leaning towards not getting it.

They're now my Amazon Marketplace top choice, also (and apparently for lots of others, too--approval rating of 98% or something like that). Terrific customer service, by the way (including an actual phone number you can call).

Hey, no bubble bursting allowed!!!! Just got back from Sarasota and found the box waiting. It's the real deal........sealed 8-cd set w/no dents, tire treadmarks, etc. Excellent! I'm glad I lost the bet. (What were we betting, anyway? )

I knew someone out there would get it (should've known it would be Rachel ).
