  1. her '4 last songs' is as beautiful as anything i have heard in this world. I second that. Her 1963 recording of the second Mahler symphony with the Philharmonia Orchestra under Otto Klemperer is not to be missed either.
  2. Why not? Because you say so?
  3. The search feature is a wonderful thing... Earlier Mosaic promo thread
  4. Hans is not only watching baseball, but at 4:30 AM? Ball games are live on cable TV over here, but unfortunately (for me) mostly in the middle of our night... You clearly didn't take a peek at my profile His walk-off HR was amazing
  5. The search feature is a wonderful thing... See the earlier Jazzmatazz threads here, here, and here.
  6. There were a few Dutch involved you know...
  7. Great ball game! Cleveland 8, Red Sox 9. (I'm off to bed now, it's 4:30 AM over here...)
  8. If I remember correctly it was reissued on CD in 1994, Savoy 228
  9. Wow, who would imagine that this guy could get violently drunk and spew crazy, hateful nonsense? Says a lot about him, doesn't it...
  10. Absolutely disgusting. By the way, Michael Caine is English... And John Candy is Canadian. And so is Dan Aykroyd, while Gibson was raised in Australia.
  11. Is this some kind of joke? Who the fuck gets this worked up over comments on a hollywood actor/producer? Not cool. It seems to be a trend; Wolff has posted something like this before, here...
  12. I don't think this xenophobic and insulting crap should be tolerated here.
  13. Forget it, Wolff has posted something similar here...
  14. Absolutely disgusting. By the way, Michael Caine is English...
  15. Happy birthday Gary, and good luck with the Saints this coming Championship season. I hope it'll be better than the last one...
  16. Shipping to PayPal-confirmed addresses only as stated in the description of the Nat King Cole set could be a problem for destinations outside the United States, as addresses in several countries cannot be confirmed. I asked PayPal about this, and they said they had no plans to change that situation in the near future.
  17. Up, still searchin'...
  18. I saw an interview with his mother the other day, apparently they're Quakers or something (?). She had to ride a bike (in her very conservative clothing) over to someone else's house in order to watch the Tour finale. Apparently they don't own a car. Maybe the USPS Team should start scouring the Quaker & Amish communites for strong bike riders in the future I doubt they're Quakers. Quakers don't shun modern technology--just war. They're probably Mennonite, if not Amish. They live in Lancaster County (about 80 miles from here), the heart of Amish/Mennonite country. They're Mennonites. Landis said so on Dutch TV.
  19. I had a Japanese LP reissue of that album back in my vinyl days. It's been a long time since I last heard it, but if my memory doesn't fail me I quite liked it.
  20. I'm looking for the Japanese CD reissue of Herb Geller's Fire in the West, Toshiba TOCJ-5398, in excellent or better condition. Please PM me if you're selling a copy or know where I can get one. I can pay through PayPal only. I'm not interested in the Spanish Fresh Sound reissue.
  21. That last sentence is not correct: These sessions originally had been on 10" LP (partly on 78's) and, due to playing time restrictions, were mixed up for the 12" LPs, which thus were the first reissues. Cover art was changed, too. On an average, three 10" LPs were used for two 12" LPs; in some cases, previously unissued alternates or tracks were added. In cases were there was not enough material for two LPs, tracks were left off (e.g. Lou Donaldson, Horace Silver Trios). This applies to the Miles Davis, Thelonious Monk, Jay Jay Johnson, Clifford Brown, Tadd Dameron, Art Blakey Birdland, and Milt Jackson sessions. For the first US CD issues Michael Cuscuna completed the sessions and put the tracks in recording order, but used the cover art of the 12" LPs. The RVGs also have the complete sessions in recording order but ise the 10" LP cover art and, of course, are newly remastered by RVG. There were Japanese issues replicating the 12" LP order, putting the remaining material on additional CDs. I was referring to the Japanese Monk CD reissues, in the 1990s "Blue Note Works" series. Forgot to mention that. Oh well, no need to edit my post now.
