Maybe Miles Davis/Gil Evans Porgy & Bess? Maybe New York Art Quartet?

Others iron and Wine Endless Numbered Days Bonnie Prince Billy Master and Everything Nick Drake Fruit Tree Gillian Welch Revival Lovers Rock came out around the time we were married and is intrinsically tied to that wonderful time in our life.

The tank is real. I've seen it on tv. http://www.jl421.com/

great website!

damn

I voted other as a sort of all of the above answer, plus this is where all of my folks came after the BNBB demise. Honestly, one of the only reasons I open a web browser these days! I need to get around more! I hear that the web is world wide.

Who gives a shit what is hip anymore? Some people think dressing up like a medieval lute player while his buddies battle it out with foam swords every Saturday morning at the local park is hip. Some people think bent-circuit children's toys are hip. Some people think beat-boxing is hip. Some people think recreating a Scriabin piece in midi is hip. Shit, I think the vibraphone is hip. Most people don't even know what the fuck a vibraphone is, and when they see it, it immediately becomes a xylophone. And then there are the people that visit this board... a very small sample of the population. All of these groups think what they are doing, what they are into, is hip. Nothing needs saving. Everything needs nurturing. You never know what the next trend will be... if its be-bop or Albert Ayler, you can say you've been there all along. BFD.

Hey everyone. I want to share the wonderful arrival of my daugther, Tatum Gray Ralston, born Wednesday, August 5, 2009 at 4:14am. She weighed 7lbs. 6oz. and measured 19 inches long. Tatum is my wife's maiden name, Gray is my grandmother's middle name before marriage and the middle name of her daughter, my dad's younger sister, Jane Gray Ralston, who lived to the age of two. We brought her home today. The dogs have been incredibly sweet and seem to be acclimating just fine! We are all thrilled. Mom and baby are both doing wonderfully. The Tatums and Ralstons will be on cloud nine for some time... this is the first grandchild on either side!

Chuck, wc comes in one to three hours behind all the others, about nine behind Europe. A couple of other things that I have that really like alot. Black California (Savoy) Eddie Costa Art Farmer "In Their Own Sweet Way" (Premier)

Thanks for the book recommendations! I've seen the Gioia book somewhere recently. I just picked up another Murakami novel though, so... Here's some of the stuff off the top of my head that are new to me that I've listened to over and over in the past year or so. Shelly Manne | The Three and The Two Duane Tatro | Jazz for Moderns Paul Desmond & Gerry Mulligan | Two of a Mind Jimmy Giuffre Three | Hollywood & Newport Live

Well keep em coming! They don't have to be WCJ label either. I just thought thus would be a good place to consolidate Chewy West Coast recommendations. Im pretty ignorant about this whole scene.

yeah, i don't either really. i don't know why. so much great shit there!

I watched it, but had to run. Thanks for posting this. I had never heard Solal before! Don't feel too bad Shawn. I rarely get more than a handful of responses to threads...

Your link doesn't work; I am aware of malware being installed from sites offering the alleged Erin Andrews video; I don't think anything happened in the short time I had no virus protection but I did find the Erin Andrews video without causing any harm (on Rapidshare, no "video player update" required). Oh well. It was buried in a political thread. Glad you picked up on the humor! I hope your computer heals nicely.

Dan, did you not read the Erin Andrews post? Pap's did warn you.

And I've seen people on the expressway, mostly women but also some men, combing their hair with both hands -- one hand combing, the other smoothing/patting things down. Also, of course, I've heard tell from one of the parties involved (quite reliably IMO) of a guy getting oral sex while driving at highway speeds. Let's pass a law on that one. Who was driving?

Metadata would make a good name for some indie metal math rock band. Two synth players of course.

In case anyone else is interested, this is a video of the first set. Video: Fight The Big Bull at Joe's Pub First Set

whoa. what just happened?

might be a good idea to reinforce the shelves by having lowes/homedepot cut a piece of plywood for you, then fasten to the back to support the weight.

Chewy, I did a board search for West Coast recommendations and didn't see a specific thread. If anyone knows of one, please link it here. Anyway, I was hoping you could start a running thread here of some of your favorite West Coast sessions...

The set is now archived. You can click here to listen to the full set. Their second album will be released on Clean Feed in February of next year.

the bee is dead

i'm listening back on the big bull set now. i recorded it with "free sound recorder", but it sounds like it will be posted to the allsongsconsidered site soon... they certainly aren't sex mob though!

I'm glad you checked it out!
