Why would EU copyright law be relevant? Since the project is done in the United States, doesn't American copyright law apply here? Just wondering.

Yep, the 70's Prestige twofer 'Green Haze' mentions this in the sleeve notes, I think. Drunk or not, the Musings date sounds very lacklustre to me.

If the cd edition reflects the original lp edition, the vocal comments are missing. Also, in the first pressings, an alternate was missing and the "master" was duplicated. My CD edition does have 2 different takes each of "Bags' Groove" and "The Man I Love" plus single takes of "Bemsha Swing" and "Swing Spring". I didn't check if the vocal comments are there. They aren't. I just listened to my Japanese non-K2 CD edition and it does have vocal comments and also different takes

Only as disc 3 of the "complete Prestige" Monk box. It's a K2 and sounds dandy. Correct, but I disagree about the sound. To each their own (edit) I just realized that the complete session is also released on 1 disc of the complete Miles Prestige box; it's on disc 4.

You're doing nothing wrong; the rules have changed, it's no longer possible to delete a thread or post and editing a post can only be done within a limited period of time.

There's already a thread about this.

It's on the iPlayer on bbc.co.uk - not sure if it's available to non-Uk users however. Give it a try, go to the TV link on the website, then to the BBC4 schedule. The BBC iPlayer is "U.K. only" - something to do with rights.

Just watched the Jazz Baroness documentary. Great stuff, very moving.

Everything he did with Clifford Brown and Sonny Rollins.

The problems in 2007, which came to a head in the last couple of months of that year, arose from personal attacks and indeed the different American and European interpretations of freedom of speech. They drove members like couw, deus62/neveronfriday and a few others away. I was also very upset and left the board for a while. I miss couw - the board was a better place with his contributions. You're right. Unfortunately, he has no intention to return.

Let me just refer to the nasty exchanges you (as one of the "well-known people and/or people with active public profiles") had with couw and myself here a few years ago and leave it at that. Paul Secor is right in his post above this one, let's let this go - I will.

Very briefly: in many European countries free speech is regarded as being relative, i.e. not as absolute as in the United States; you can freely attack someone's beliefs/convictions (political views, religion, etc.) but you can't attack a person because of what they are (gender, race, sexual preference and things like that). In some cases insults and verbal abuse aren't allowed either, though this varies depending on the social climate. There's a saying here that one's freedom ends where it violates another person's freedom.

Not all of those well-known people and/or people with active public profiles are victims only; some of them have launched petty and personal attacks on others as well, which sometimes resulted in nasty exchanges, bad feelings and a negative atmosphere.

Maybe both of you could give it a rest, it's boring and annoying (I don't mean you, Erik )

If he really decides to stay away I will miss his very interesting and informative posts on music, but not his repetitive rants about some people and religious/political issues.

Everyone can post what they want to post, but within the rules set by the board's owner/administrator.

Stress. Stress isn't a factor for Guus, it's because he already has too many other commitments, one of which is the Russian national team.

With whom?

I just checked and Chris' last post on the Blindman's Blues Forum was on April 3, just 12 days ago.

Hi Al, Just saw this thread. You know I'm not religious and I don't pray, but I wish you and your daughter the best of luck.

A great album.

Mosaic may still have the individual discs you're looking for. Have you contacted them yet? (Edit) See also robviti's post above.
