I'm playing thru mine if you want to listen? rodcast (in case the sig file isn't visible below)

thanks!

Can't find the actual picture, but... edit: well, here's a small one:

I'd rather hear a 24-hour version.

Any thread that references Prof. Irwin Corey is alright with me.

Do you owe it back wages?

I liked him in Car Wash.

Great! (just don't tell CS 500 that you're linking Kerouac with jazz... )

Whoa....you better ask yer friend again about this 'cause what makes Japanese a mountain to climb for English speaking folks is that it doesn't equally emphasize all of the syllables! I spent many days just trying to learn the proper way to pronounce "Ryoanji" this summer and the inflections have to be just right.

Yup, this is a shame...especially with what he had to deal with during his last years. We lose Hilly and Tony Wilson inside one month - man, I feel so old now.

Ok, so I checked again and there seems to be some of an entrance here to Autumn Leaves - more than I heard before, so maybe I was just tired afterall...still: don't like the inclusion of the Waiting For Miles bit - a bit snarky methinks. Excellent concert tho and worth having...

just small irritating ones - right when you start the disc: there's (even) a small edit right in the middle of the crowd sound of the 41 second cut (unbelievably so) and then it very abruptly goes into Autumn Leaves - actually clipping the first note from Miles. Just irritating blips like that that I think could've used some care. The more that I think of this first cut - Waiting For Miles - business, the more I think that it's a weird, unnecessary slap at Miles' personality, ...or it could be my lack of sleep...

Been listening to the Miles for the past few days. Not sure why they bothered with the 41 seconds of Waiting For Miles and the editing of and in the tracks is a bit annoying (read: "unprofessional"). Performances are grand tho and it's Miles and that's OK in my book. ...but I just got around to the booklet. I noticed that the family (and lawyers) get a paragraph of thanks:

I think he'd like that description very much!

Up again...(after almost 2 years!) Found this clip of Lee & Frosty. It's the wrong song title at the top, but still fun to see the two of them: Lee Michaels & Frosty

Still haven't heard any details, but it's not quite 7AM in Tokyo now, so maybe I will later tonight. All I could find was this German(?!) Wikipedia entry that shows date of death: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masahiko_Togashi

I have word from a friend in Tokyo that Masahiko Togashi passed away yesterday. More information to come as it's released... http://jazz.discogs.com/artist/Masahiko+Togashi (strange co-incidence for me: I was listening to Lacy's The Wire just last night of which he plays on "The Owl")

It's wrapping up now - what a great week of music!

Sorry to hear this Mark. We'll miss both the Mooses (Moosi?) Later, a nice framed picture in a favorite location may help with the healing...

Agree completely!

Different kettle of kool-aid altogether. The Faulkner, tho SOC, is purposely put together into interlocking major themes - it's the Braxton/Iridium of novels. Kerouac's was written in three weeks on a single scroll of paper with no paragraph breaks - all in a big block of streamed text and meant to be like life lived - sprawling, inconsistent, occasionally daft, etc. There's a life lived and learned in both, but I think more natural and "real" in the Kerouac.

BTW...anyone left who cares... The last pages have a reconstruction of what Jack probably wrote as an ending "before the dog ate it." It seems quite faithful based on notes that he left. Yes to Desolation Angels and Big Sur too (for Alex Aums/Arthur Wayne as my real life influence)! R~~

Well, you know Lon...we're on a freekin' JAZZ forum and people are talking about editing and the "rambling" nature of OTR(?) I'm going over to "rec.music.classical" now and start a new topic: "Bach: Without the Mathematics" I'm with ya Big Al! The last words of Outlaw Sam Bass: "The world's-a-bobbin'..."

Editing? EDITING? It's a stream of consciousness book that's finally released without the censoring. It's supposed to stream! Hey, let's go back and take all of that nature crap out of Thoreau's Journal too! (welcome to the 21st Century straight-jacket of the mind...) oh yeah, let's fix that spelling in Finnegans Wake as well...
