    Great news: Frog's owner David French told me he's working on Bessie Vol.7 at the moment and he's going to try and get the last two volumes (7 and 8) out before Christmas. He takes direct orders: Frog Records site.

    Thanks for posting this, Jason. I'll order the Bessie Smith. By the way, I've edited my Blues and R&B list.

    Well, at midnight the names of the birthday guys and gals of the new day appear at the bottom of the main page, and since we (in Continental Europe) are 6 to 9 hours ahead of U.S. time it's easy to post an early "Happy Birthday" thread. The Asian, New Zealand and Australian members could easily beat us, though...

    This month's full of members' birthdays... Have a great day, Catesta!

    Brook Benton was a wonderful uptown R&B* singer, who had several hits in the late 1950s / early 1960s: AMG bio - click here. *Uptown R&B: a term coined by Charlie Gillett, author of the invaluable rock history The Sound of the City.

    I wish Mosaic would do this set: The Complete Milt Jackson - Lucky Thompson Savoy Sessions and these Blues and R&B sets: The Complete Leroy Carr Sessions The Percy Mayfield Tangerine Sessions (I read somewhere - I think it was ICE magazine - that Rhino Handmade would do a Mayfield Tangerine set, but when I asked them they said they didn't know anything about it... )

    Well, if they're tacking on one extra track, I sure hope it's The Lady is a Tramp. Nope; according to HMV Japan it's The Things We Did Last Summer: click here.

    The 30th Anniversay Edition I have is not a digipack edition, but it has a fold-out mini-LP sleeve. It was 24-bit remastered by Simon Heyworth, Robert Fripp and David Singleton on August 3, 1999, and the UK CD number is Virgin CDVKCX1. It sounds great.

    The Williamson has eight tracks according to HMV Japan.

    Hmm, I stopped doing that about 20 years ago...

    There are none, except that when you purchase something on-line from another EU country, the seller has to charge the Value Added Tax percentage of the EU country the buyer's living in. So if I purchase something on-line from Germany, the German seller has to charge 19% VAT, the going rate in my country.

    Have a great day!

    If you're referring to the "Miscellaneous - Non Political" Forum, that's still there: you can now find it near the bottom of the main page, under "General Discussion".

    The 3CD-version is essential IMO.
  24. J.A.W.
    Yeah, but not to the NL
