It's also very likely that Ms. Lohan's handlers' writing skills are on the same level. My 10-year-old writes better than this.

AFAIC, this has THE definitive version of "A Night in Tunisia!"

Hopefully to someplace in the DFW area! (If there's anyplace left....)

Is that the CD or the LP? I'd like to find an LP copy; I can't help but wonder if some of the vocals on the current CD version are overdubbed.

I'm already making one for another poster!

Bootlegs though...

Me too! Wouldn't it be great if Concord gave the Monk/Griffin gigs the same treatment they gave the Red Garland Prelude set? Griffin was killin' when he was with Monk!

Alrighty then; I think that'll do the trick!

They have been releasing a whole new series of sets since they took over, reconfiguring Miles and Trane into smaller boxes, releasing the complete Prestige Bebop Stitt, the Complete VV Evans, the Complete Monk/Trane, The Complete Prelude Garland. All are beutifully done, and all except the Miles Quintet box incredibly low priced, list price of $10/CD. Check out their web site. I haven't checked to see if the old Fantasy boxes are still available, since I have what I want of those. I completely forgot about (i.e. ignored) the Stitt box when it came out, but went back to check out what's on it. 75 tracks! Art Blakey, Jo Jones, JJ, a host of others! I'm getting this set!

Hey, I saw a 10-CD box of Charlie Parker from a label called Past Perfect. Anyone know about this? Is it worth getting? It's only $30, so that tells me it's too good to be true. Or is it?

They've done a great job on the prices so far on almost all of their historical sets. The 3 CD sets have had a $30 list price to date (Evans, Stitt) , so should be available for $20-25. And the other sized sets (Coltrane, Monk/Trane. Garland) have also had a $10/disc list price. The only exception I'm aware of is the Miles Quintet box with the newly licensed material on CD4. I think they're really doing a commendable job on their historical reissues so far, much better than we probably had any right to expect. I'm sure you're right. Actually, I meant Concord, not Fantasy - slip of the mind. This will be their first, won't it? MG I believe he was referring to Concord in his post.

Kenny G sold a lot of vinyl as well.

Pity it only goes up to 1953; I wonder how long we'll have to wait to get to the 1954-55 sessions?

PM sent again!

Hey Mark, did you get my PM? I want this baby!

Aw HECK yeah!!!

Also, what is up with the Giants? That was one helluva meltdown in the fourth quarter against the lowly Titans. Vince Young showed why us Longhorns fans were so sad to see him go last year. Man, if anyone'd told me the Cows would be in first after the Thanksgiving holiday, I'd still be laughing. Next week's contest between these two teams oughta be VERRRRRRRY interesting!

I think I can agree with that.

Oh Chronic Tree :lol:

Same as last year with one happy addition: I finally got around to burning my mom's old Christmas albums to CD! Bring on the happy memories!!!

As a Bears fan, I'm naturally biased, but I have to disagree nonetheless: this was a TERRIBLE game. Nine turnovers??? That's pathetic. I agree: bring in Griese. Grossman's starting to look like Bledsoe out there. And who decided to call for a long pass on first down with less than two minutes to go? Geez, make some short passes and get outta bounds! How simple is that? Nope, the Bears deserved to lose today. Just sickening!

Agree completely!!!! Excellent picture!

Walk THIS way! Still working on that hump... er, what I meant was..... oops!
