*Happy* BIRTHDAY (Rooster Ties) !!!!!

Bummer. I was afraid it was true. Sorry for the bad news guys.

Yes. I bought this, along with a BN from importcds.com. Thanks for the lead Dmitry.

Maybe The Camel then. Also a great venue. Let me see what I can do.

Out In The Afternoon is really incredible. I've never owned this album. I bought Rip, Rig, and Panic/Please Don't You Cry Now Beautiful Edith and a friend bought Out In The Afternoon way back when. We haven't lived in the same town since 1999. I figured now's the time. Great album. Great sound. Especially RRK and the strangely hard panned reverb on the drum kit. Glad to finally own this album.

Did you get set up in RVA?

Happy birthday from NC!

You can't tell? We look a lot alike! The bassist. Cameron Ralston.

I have, and can strongly recommend Conception Vessel and Tribute.

This is a new release coming out in April. My brother is a part of this project. Each musician was asked to bring a piece of music to the sessions. My brother chose, and arranged "Ghosts" by Albert Ayler. Here is a video

I just saw mention that Melvin Sparks has passed? This is totally unfounded and I am hoping someone here can deny. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melvin_Sparks Damn. This certainly is matter of fact and abrupt. Was someone waiting by the computer to update the page? Still no mention elsewhere.

I am feeling very small at the moment, realizing just how far away all of this is and just how little this affects daily life here. Very sad to think that most folks are going on about their business as if nothing is happening.

Thanks Chuck. I thought he was going about it all wrong.

I have a friend (trombonist) who is releasing an album this spring that would like to include their version of "Lonely Woman". He left a message with Phrase Text last week. I was wondering if anyone could provide direct contact info? If PM is more appropriate, please contact me this way. Thanks y'all. Cary

Everything is run by the open-source squeezecenter software. I've been using this set-up for many years. Sans vortexbox. Been ripping everything by laptop to NAS. I think you would go direct in to your pre. Unfortunately, because you have multiple Olive devices, I'm not sure this is an option.

Sucks he went out like that.

Mellencamp makes me think immediately of Bryan Adams. Is it time to throw his name into the Billy Joel > Bruce Springsteen > John Cougar Mellencamp } Elton John thread? Or was it already dead?

You really ought to find the time to listen to Pet Sounds. If for nothing else, so that you can re-edit the above post.

Dan, I would never crap on a thread. Ever. I don't have the Lazar LP.

I'm not even convinced that it showed up in record stores because I don't even remember buying it, but here it is on my shelf. They should re-title it "Immaculate Conception". Either that, or I have experienced immaculate consumption. Seems like I'm really trying to dive-bomb this thread. I'm not. Please, carry on.

I run Squeezecenter software on a NAS, which also stores my music. I have a Squeezebox classic plugged into it, which is plugged into my Decware Zen. Everything is controlled remotely by using iPeng app on iphone. My next purchase will be the Vortex Box. Rip, store, and serve all in one "appliance". I'm not sure how this compares with the Olive brand, but wow, what a price difference.

I had never heard Wilie with the Beach Boys before. Nice. Pretty embarrassing I'd think to be caught on tape "criticizing" Willie Nelson's vocals.

Vortex Box is popular.

I'm not convinced that Grant Green is, in fact, even ON Iron City!
