Excellent. Someone else who has attained enlightenment. I don't think I've attained enlightenment; I like piano trios though, and 3 Sounds is a good one. But so are those of Wynton Kelly Red Garland Junior Mance Phineas Newborn McCoy Tyner Ray Bryant Les McCann Sonny Clark Ahmad Jamal King Fleming Ramsey Lewis Horace Parlan John Wright Bobby Timmons Norman Simmons Hampton Hawes And they ain't AT ALL the same old thing; not a one of them. MG How could you forget to mention Bill Evans?

Since it's only two weeks away and there's been no discussion of the Newport Jazz Festival, I assume this year's artists hold little interest for people around here. Still, there will be an installment of the Wayne Shorter 80th birthday tour featuring Herbie Hancock, along with perennial (superficial) favorites like Chick Corea, Hiromi, and Marcus Miller. Anyway, here's the two-day lineup at Newport's Fort Adams State Park: Saturday, August 3, 2013 Wayne Shorter's 80th Birthday Celebration: Wayne Shorter Quartet featuring Danilo Pérez, John Patitucci & Brian Blade plus special guest Herbie Hancock Esperanza Spalding's Radio Music Society Marcus Miller Michel Camilo Sextet Terence Blanchard Quintet Robert Glasper Experiment Gregory Porter Bill Charlap Trio with special guests Bob Wilber & Anat Cohen Edmar Castañeda with special guest Andrea Tierra Lew Tabackin Quartet with Randy Brecker, Peter Washington & Lewis Nash Ray Anderson Pocket Brass Band Rez Abbasi Trio Amir El'Saffar Two Rivers Mary Halvorson Quintet The Ali Amr Experiment RI Music Educators Association Senior All-State Jazz Ensemble Sunday, August 4, 2013 Chick Corea & The Vigil with Christian McBride, Tim Garland, Marcus Gilmore, & Charles Altura Eddie Palmieri Salsa Orchestra Dizzy Gillespie Big Band under the direction of Paquito D'Rivera Hiromi: The Trio Project with Anthony Jackson & Steve Smith Joshua Redman Quartet Roy Haynes Fountain of Youth Band Steve Coleman Projects: Five Elements, Talea Ensemble and Duo with David Bryant Jim Hall with Scott Colley, Lewis Nash and special guest Julian Lage Dirty Dozen Brass Band Jon Batiste & Stay Human Dee Alexander Donny McCaslin Group David Gilmore & Numerology featuring Claudia Acuña, Miguel Zenón, Luis Perdomo, Christian McBride, Jeff "Tain" Watts & Mino Cinelu MA Music Educators Association All-State Jazz Band University of Rhode Island Jazz Festival Big Band Note: Artists not in billing or play order.

Enthusiastic, enthralled, enchanted, excited, exuberant, or maybe even elated, but enlightened?

No Mercury. This 4CD compilation includes Introducing The Three Sounds, Introducing The Three Sounds Volume 2, Bottoms Up, Moods, Hey There, Here We Come, Branching Out and Blue Hour.

Blue Note reissued plenty of recordings by The Three Sounds. They're enjoyable enough, but after purchasing two or three titles, I never felt the need to collect more. I suspect that most jazz listeners share the same opinion.

Welcome to the board, nobastaunavida. A friendly suggestion: when you're starting a thread, look over the brief description of each forum and decide which best suits your topic of discussion. Posting in the right forum will get your topic more attention and better responses. One more thing: the board frowns upon creating multiple threads on the same subject posted in different forums. -
Transition also issued a live date by Boston hero Herb Pomeroy entitled Jazz In A Stable.

I might be wrong, but I don't think any of the recordings included on Donald Byrd/Doug Watkins - The Transition Sessions are live performances.

Asiana Plane Crash at San Francisco International
sonnymax replied to BeBop's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
As I followed the breaking news on this event, I saw numerous outlets reporting that Facebook executive Sheryl Sandberg was scheduled to be on that flight, but she changed her plans at the last minute. Frankly, my initial reaction was "so what?", believing that a COO is no more important than the people who actually suffered in this accident. -

Although you can listen to streaming media of Donald Byrd Live at Montreux from July 5, 1973 on Blue Note's website, it is not available for download.

How did you come to the conclusion that the HDD is incompatible? Did you check with the HDD manufacturer? Did you use Disk Management in Windows 8 to locate the HDD? It might show up there, but not be assigned a letter. Also, when you run Avast!, you have the option of running a "removable volume scan". Does your HDD show up there? A Google search reveals problems similar to yours with every new OS. It appears that often the issues can be resolved by downloading updated software/drivers.

Actually, it was issued in 1977 on Timeless: And then re-released on the Timeless/Muse label two years later: A good album, for sure, but it pales in comparison to the aforementioned Convergence:

sonnymax replied to bdamusic's topic in Miscellaneous Music
Welcome to the board, bdamusic. The particular forum you posted this thread to is dedicated to "suggestions, feedback, comments concerning the organissimo forums". I encourage you to check out the titles and descriptions of the other forums on the board so you can post your contributions where they are more relevant, and therefore are more likely to spur interest and discussion. For instance, this particular thread would fit nicely in the "miscellaneous music" forum, where it would most probably receive more attention and feedback. Btw, I love Bermuda. -
This is old news. Video killed the radio star back in 1979.

If only it would reject the whole press release. -
From the New York Times: Chet Flippo, one of the deans of pop music journalism, whose profiles of artists like Dolly Parton, Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings and Tanya Tucker for Rolling Stone magazine in the 1970s heralded vast new popularity for country music among broader audiences in the United States, died last Wednesday in Nashville. He was 69. His death, after a long illness, was announced by the country music cable channel CMT, where he was editorial director. No cause was given. Mr. Flippo covered a range of subjects for Rolling Stone from 1970 to the early 1980s, including John Lennon’s legal troubles, the Rolling Stones’ bacchanalian tours, Bob Dylan’s serial reinventions and Janis Joplin’s 10th-year high school reunion, in 1970.

I went to the site and copied the image location myself. Here's the result: My link: http://eil.com/images/main/Sonny+Clark+%2D+Leapin%27+And+Lopin%27+%2D+LP+RECORD-364272.jpg Your link: http://eil.com/images/main/Sonny+Clark+-+Leapin" +and+lopin'+-+lp+record-364272.jpg I think somehow you're copying the links incorrectly, since there seems to be a break in the link you tried to post. -

Sorry, I just deleted my post after I edited it by successfully copying a Sonny Clark jpeg from that site. Can you post the link(s) that were giving you a problem?
