Hiroshi Tanno (again...)

Just read the review, and they're not far off the mark IMO. When I first heard a few snippets it didn't sound bad, but the more I heard the less I liked it.

I second that.

Well I guess it has to start with me. I have no interest in any of these. Goes for me too, perhaps with the exception of the Amy (it has a bit too much organ for me, though)

It's not half.com that does not ship outside North America, most likely it was the particular seller who elected to not ship overseas. I've had numerous items on sale here, and have shipped overseas many a time. Every time I tried to buy an item at half.com I got a message that their items are "not available to persons living outside North America".

Half.com does not ship outside North America.

It was kinda easy for me, since Chris A.'s moniker appeared in "Today's birthdays" at the bottom of the main page at midnight my time

Couldn't access the board again this morning until now...

Many happy returns!

Never heard any 3D System discs, so I can't comment.

Lunch in my case...

Couldn´t access the board at all until a few minutes ago...

Yes, and yes!

The "Artists" category.

This is already being discussed in these threads: Don Lanphere, Carl Fontana.

It's currently available in Japan (with 5 bonus tracks): Universal UCCI-5146. Hiroshi Tanno might be able yo help you: hiroshi@earlyrecords.com.

Couldn't agree more.

JRVGs are the only Blue Notes that are released in mini-LP paper sleeves in Japan.

Maybe posters at AAJ are just a tad less interested in these releases or even the kind of jazz people are talking so much about here... Why don't you start a thread about these discs over there and see what happens?

I think they are inflatable. ...And hopefully washable... I don't know who would know this but in Japan they also call these a "Dutch Wife". I beg your pardon??? ( )

Why don't you?

Go to the bottom of your thread, left-hand side, select "delete this topic" in the "moderation options" drop-down menu, and GO!

You'd better ask Hiroshi Tanno - I copied his e-mail literally!
