I fully agree. Euro bank transfers are free in the Netherlands.

Hiroshi Tanno takes PayPal, International Money Order and cash payments; no credit cards, though. He's in Fukuoka City, Japan. Hiroshi can supply all currently available Japanese jazz CDs and LPs, whether they're listed on his website or not.

I love The Way Ahead. Beautiful Album. I finally got this one (wonderfully sounding Japanese version.. but no bonus tracks (why? why?) - a great one. Probably the best Shepp I've heard (I don't have too much, I have to admit). You don't need the domestic (U.S.) reissue's bonus tracks, they're totally out of place in my opinion.

Best place to buy the Japanese "Blue Note Works" TOCJs, the Japanese Rudy Van Gelder TOCJs and the new Japanese 24-bit remastered TOCJs: hiroshi@earlyrecords.com.

That's exactly the impression I got.

I agree (again...) In my opinion the Danes played the best football so far.

France just equalized, very poor defending by Croatia. The second half is much more entertaining than the first half was.

You were right Brownie. It was not too comlicated for the English. you must have watched an other game than I did then.... I agree, the English were having lots of problems with the Swiss, at least in the game I was watching... The 3 - 0 result was exaggerated. Then again it cannot it be all that bad if you play poorly & win 3-0. We can play alot better than that. Don't want to offend you, but I haven't seen any of that yet, not against the French and certainly not tonight.

Hnmmm ... tasty flame wars. What? I think Kenny is referring to "The Charlie Christian Discussion Group" (link on this page - scroll down)

Excellent, he got what he deserved. Let's hope the suspension will be upheld in an appeal.

Will do.

I'd recommend the Columbia 4CD-set, the more so as I'm not sure where the other labels got their remasters from.

Problems here too, I couldn't access the board in the last 15 minutes.

They should also look into Totti's vicious attack on a Danish player; he only got a yellow card, it should have been red. What a nasty player

The French are my favourites too, though I was disappointed by their performance against England.

I'm not sure about that. I got the impression that Advocaat was (and perhaps still is) the Dutch FA's favourite, despite his lack of real success.

Not with this manager. Their preparation was disastrous and the first match was a confirmation of the poor state the team's in. If this is the situation, why do you think he was appointed??? No idea. The ways of the Dutch FA's executives are inscrutable.

I don't think the Dutch team will go through. The players have a lot of individual qualities, but they don't seem to be able to play as a team. I'm not a fan of manager Advocaat, who never really seems to know what he's doing and who's never won anything important with his teams (PSV Eindhoven, Rangers, the Dutch team twice), and I hope he'll go as soon as the tournament is over for the Dutch, which, again, might be pretty soon.

I'd be happy to donate too. I wonder if Jim would accept any donations, though - it would make it nearly impossible for him to ban anyone who has donated, wouldn't it...

This set is absolutely wonderful - in small doses. Get it while you can.

Did anybody order any discs from the first batch? How's the sound compared with the "Blue Note Works" TOCJs?
