It wasn't me; I've had my hands to myself all day.

Kinda interesting that they're just now getting to RVGs that were released in March, after they'd previously offered other RVGs from that same time. Ah well, I'm happy they got 'em now!

Which would explain why it's been years since I've posted over there....

Ouch! Talk about cruel & unusual punishment!

The thread to post about your faves and least faves: Christmas music in general, Christmas/holiday albums, music that reminds you of the holidays (for better and worse), mall Xmas muzak that is driving you to commit ransom acts of killing, etc etc etc. I'll start by saying that if I have to hear "All I Want for Christmas is You" by whoever it is that feels like she has to keep shouting as the key goes higher, I will require the white suit and the straps. Thank God for Tony Bennett's album and Percy Faith's album. They never fail to make me feel all snowy & Christmasy inside!

Welcome Steve! I, for one, am glad you're here. Hope you'll hang around these parts more often!

Up. Added some CDs and a book.

IF the Boys make it to the Super Bowl (and last night's second half didn't exactly inspire any confidence), we can expect a New England blowout along the lines of the Cows 52-17 drubbing of the Bills in Super Bowl XXVII.

I agree! Ironically, this game reminded me of the game last year when Bledsoe was pulled out of the game and replaced by Tony Romo. I think this Rogers kid is gonna be one to watch! I thought it was an ugly game, but hey, a win's a win's a win. Still, that defense still needs some serious work. No way they should've let the backup QB bring his team back into the game after the Cows had completely dominated that first half.

Happy birthday, brother Fel"Z"!!! :party::party:

I assume you have "Triple Threat," yes?

Well, here's my haul: John Fahey - Days Have Gone By John Fahey - Death Chants, Breakdowns And Military Waltzes Dizzy Reece - Asia Minor Nat Adderley - Work Song (Hybrid SACD) Wynton Kelly - Kelly Blue (Hybrid SACD) Thelonious Monk Plays Duke Ellington [Keepnews Collection] Hampton Hawes Quartet - All Night Session, Vol. 1 Hampton Hawes Quartet - All Night Session, Vol. 2 Hampton Hawes Quartet - All Night Session, Vol. 3 Blue Mitchell - Smooth As The Wind Cannonball Adderley Quintet - Portrait Of Cannonball Jimmy Heath - The Quota Jimmy Heath - Triple Threat Averaged out to about $8.90 per disc. Wow; don't know if I'll ever get to buy a couple SACD's for THAT price!

Or 'Bi Gal' Not that there's anything wrong with that...

A Glib

Well, I was hoping to have more detailed responses, but when I realized that every one of my guesses was starting off with, "No clue, but I am SURE digging this!" I figured it was best to take off the thinking cap and put on the listening/grooving cap! This is another wonderful BFT, Mike! Definitely a keeper here! If I come across a track that I actually have a guess, I'll post it. Until then, groooooooooove-time baby!!!!

Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy!!!! I’ve been waiting for this BFT ever since I found out I was already signed up! Track 1: No clue, as usual, but it’s already got me outta my seat & dancin’! The vocalist reminds me of Carmen Miranda; sort of a Latin Ella! Lovely horn arrangement; it doesn’t sound like your stereotypical “latin soul” band. Sounds like some real heart and thought went into this arrangement. Track 2: That alto sax sounds familiar, but I can’t place it. Nice latin groove, a little looser than the previous track, but nothing to complain about. Track 3: Oh, like I’m gonna guess anything else besides Cal Tjader? No clue as usual, but I love unison statements by vibes-flute-tenor sax. Oh I could get lost in a groove like this for hours and never get tired! Pity this song is only five minutes long! More later.....

Get ALL DAY LONG. The new 2-fer doesn't include any of the bonus tracks on the individual CDs.

Any Blue Mitchell on Riverside Dizzy Reece's ASIA MINOR Jimmy Heath's REALLY BIG (or any Jimmy Heath on Riverside, for that matter) The Monk Prestige Box More great suggestions. The only one missing here is the Monk box. Not sure I have the financial appetite to digest this one now. You can't beat 3 discs at $9 each, the music is wondeful, and the sound is fantastic.

'atsalright! I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority on this one.

Does this include the song "Drowned"? Or "Sea & Sand"? Side three I have some love for, but nothing I'd rather hear before other Who material. I forgot to mention how much I love "Bell Boy," completely outta character for Moon but heartfelt (and believeable) nonetheless!
