  1. Singer Trini Lopez, who enjoyed a heyday in the 1960s with hits including “If I Had a Hammer,” “This Land Is Your Land” and "Lemon Tree" died Tuesday from complications related to coronavirus, collaborators said. He was 83. Lopez had been in and out of a hospital setting for about six weeks before dying about 5 a.m. at Desert Regional Medical Center in Palm Springs, California, said songwriting partner Joe Chavira. obit
  2. Florida sheriff orders deputies not to wear masks, bans civilians in masks from office "We can debate and argue all day of why and why not. The fact is, the amount of professionals that give the reason why we should [wear masks], I can find the exact same amount of professionals that say why we shouldn’t....In light of the current events when it comes to the sentiment and/or hatred toward law enforcement in our country today, this is being done to ensure there is clear communication and for identification purposes of any individual walking into a lobby," Sheriff Woods wrote.
  3. I got to see Claire perform with Forrester at the Cornelia St. Cafe several years ago. Great music, and she was very friendly. I'll definitely get this disc from her, as well as the Motown tribute from a few years ago.

    Geez Chuck, don't you remember me?
  5. If you like Robin Hood, you should check out 1935's Captain Blood, a classic swashbuckler that first paired de Havilland with Errol Flynn. Rest peacefully, Ms. de Havilland, and thank you.
  6. That's 256 gigabytes, not kilobytes. Have you considered replacing your current player with an inexpensive unlocked android phone like the Motorola G7 Play? Currently, it's $133 on amazon, and you can buy a microSD card that holds up to 512GB.
  7. All of these sets are available for streaming on Spotify, including the 18-disc Nat King Cole set.
  8. Better to look like a dope than to be one.
  9. Has anyone asked Jim A what he thinks? This is his board, after all.
  10. Roger Rosenberg, baritone & soprano sax, bass clarinet; Mark Soskin, piano; Peter Bernstein, guitar (#6 only); Chip Jackson, bass; Jeff Brillinger, drums. 2009 Sunnyside SSC1221.
  11. 31 MLB players, 7 staff test positive for COVID-19, or 1.2% Also worth noting is the fact that the positive tests occurred among 19 of the 30 teams.
  12. What the fuck, SS. You think this video of assault and battery is cool, funny or justified? I don't think this kind of thing should be graphically displayed on the forum and have asked Jim to remove it. Or, you could save him the trouble and delete it yourself.
  13. Truly one the geniuses of comedy, and a personal hero of mine. R.I.P. sir, and thank you for the humor, the laughter and the humanity. People.com
  14. I apologize for my comment to your Ray Charles post. I have deleted my post. If you delete your reply to me, all traces of our exchange will be eliminated. Again, sorry.

  15. "She" is a he, and his member name is Moms Mobley. He used to be Clementine. Unlike you, I do not miss his incendiary contributions to the board. Your occasional provocations are more than plenty for me.
  16. A simple question for me. No.
  17. Cover of the original 1999 release. 2CD follow-up recorded at the 2000 North Sea Jazz Festival.
  18. A lot of people are struggling financially right now. As good as this recording might be, it's hardly a necessity.
  19. From the NYT: Willis marches through a catalog of originals and classics, including “Climax,” a zipping modal composition by Jack DeJohnette that was one of the pieces he recorded with McLean at those early sessions, in that same studio, more than 50 years before.
  20. Just received this from Bandcamp: This Friday, June 5th (from midnight to midnight PDT), we’re once again waiving our revenue share for all sales on Bandcamp to support artists impacted by Covid-19. We’ve put together a list of artists and labels preparing special releases for Friday, including those donating their share to organizations in support of racial justice and change. In addition, on Friday, June 19th, we’re donating 100% of our share of sales to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, a racial justice organization with a long history of effectively enacting change through litigation, advocacy, and public education.
