Actually, you've go me worried Chuck. Are you apologizing for something you've done, or something you're going to do? Whatever is might be, people care about you. Let us know if we can help.

Didn't think duos were all that rare pre-1972. Rubbish (re: the ECM claim). There were many duos prior to the 70s. I'm quite familiar with various guitar duos like George Barnes & Carl Kress, Chuck Wayne & Joe Puma, Eddie Lang & Carl Kress, Eddie Lang & Lonnie Johnson, Dick McDonough & Carl Kress, George Barnes & Bucky Pizzarelli, etc. Check out this live performance by Jim Hall & Barney Kessel: Then there are the lovely duo recordings by Bill Evans & Jim Hall. And let us not forget this great one:

Anybody know what kind of outfit the London-based Fivefour Records is?

In hindsight, I should have been more clear in my post, saying that this was a list of titles that Xanadu issued on CD. Yes, there were a few reissued on Prevue, and some others in Japan.

There are strict laws governing the proper of medical waste. Your dentist was legally and ethically bound to do what he did. You should feel good about the fact that he acted in a professional manner.

I can't see how complaining about being blocked constitutes a "personal attack". As far as wanting things to be kept private, why on earth would you create a thread about this matter? I had no idea the exchange you speak of had taken place, but now I do, and so does everybody else. From what I've observed, you've been increasingly reactive and sometimes provocative over the past several weeks. You have every right to post whatever you want, but don't be surprised or claim to be offended when others respond. And if you think people's comments are "off topic", you may want to look at how you call attention to yourself, rather than the message you're trying to communicate.

AFAIK, none of the Xanadu titles you're looking for made it CD. Here's a list of CDs that were offered by that label: Barry Harris - The Bird Of Red And Gold Al Cohn & Dexter Gordon - True Blue Bud Powell - Bud In Paris Art Pepper & Shorty Rogers - Popo Wynton Kelly - Blues On Purpose Red Garland - Keystones! Georgie Auld - Homage Joe Farrell - Skateboard Park Jimmy Raney & Sonny Clark - Together Dolo Coker - California Hard Charles McPherson - Beautiful! (Various) - International Jam Sessions JR Monterose - Straight Ahead Al Cohn & Jimmy Rowles - Heavy Love Kenny Dorham - The Kenny Dorham Memorial Album Sam Most - Mostly Flute Kenny Drew - Home Is Where The Soul Is

I can only speak for myself, but I don't find him boring at all. I own quite a few of his albums, from solo and trio dates to his quintet recording with Dave Douglas and Rich Perry. I've also seen him perform live twice, and both times I came away feeling moved and entertained. You want to talk about "boring", try Ahmad Jamal. He's the one who does it for me.

That's a questionable way of determining the 'funniest' film IMHO - the quality of the laugh (volume, duration, sincerity) should be taken into account. Not to mention the fact that a laugh is not the only way of displaying amusement - I rarely laugh in a cinema and prefer to just smirk, and then maybe laugh later when I'm walking home (which raises another problem - how do they know that people are laughing at the film playing, and not at the memory of another, funnier film) You raise some good points. Also remember that you're quoting the reporter's summary of this "research". The quote we get from Lovefilm's editor is this, "we asked our members to vote for the 10 movies that make them laugh the most, and then conducted our own research into how many times those included in this list made us giggle." There's no real "research" being done here, and to say that an imprecise observation of "giggling" can offer anything resembling a conclusion is, in itself, laughable. Although one may argue that "funny" is synonymous with "humorous", "laughter", although capable of being observed and quantified, isn't necessarily connected to or bound by humor. Sorry for the professorial tone, but that's what happens when you actually do conduct research into humor and laughter. To quote Mark Twain, "Studying humor is like dissecting a frog; you may know a lot but you end up with a dead frog."

Angry young man, meet grumpy old man.

Thanks for the heads up. I have several albums by Wogram with Nabatov, so I'm very interested in this larger ensemble recording.

HD Tracks have a 2012 version available. https://www.hdtracks...HX5099963650457 And yet, no mention of any repairs to the title track.

I've recently earned $10 in amazon mp3 credits, and I'd like to share with you how I did it. First and easiest, I signed up for the Scott Shared Values program that promises coupons and deals on their products. I couldn't care less about that part of the deal, but I immediately received a coupon code good for $5 in mp3 credits at amazon. The other way to obtain credit requires a little more effort. Supposedly, there are more than 19,000 Coinstar Center machines in supermarkets, drug stores, convenience stores, etc. in the U.S. and Canada. Currently, you can get $5 in amazon mp3 credit by cashing in $20 or more in coins (there is no service fee when selecting amazon credit). Usually I have a chunk of change lying around, but it just so happens I cashed in my coins a few weeks back. So, I simply went to the bank and purchased two rolls of quarters, then cashed them in at the Coinstar machine. I received $20 in Amazon.com credit (which can be used to purchase anything on the site), along with a code that earned me the $5 in amazon mp3 credit. These tactics may seem tedious or overly involved to some. That's cool, but I found it worth it to me, and so I thought maybe some of you might want to take advantage of these offers too.

"Yogiisms": pithy comments and witticisms...[that] very often take the form of either an apparently obvious tautology, or a paradoxical contradiction. I Jazz isn't masturbation, as your friend so inelegantly claims, but it could arguably be seen by some as "masturbatory" (i.e., excessively self-absorbed or self-indulgent). Then again, the same might be said about an inordinate amount of threads about inconsequential topics that rarely produce meaningful discussion.

While I too am confused about the message in flat5's post, reading different accounts of the accident provides some clarification. Depending on the source, Golub was either "dragged", "hit", "clipped", etc. by the train. From what I gather, he fell onto the track, but was helped back onto the platform by others as the train came in, and therefore only his leg was injured by the moving train. As far as the dog's role in the incident, Golub is quoted as saying, "Nobody had enough time when I was jumping in front of the train to stop me, but there was a guy who helped pull me up. I'm lucky I didn't fall underneath the train." Given this reluctance to assign blame, I'm inclined to extend the same courtesy to Luke.

Funny? Sort of. Genuine? No. This "interview" is a fake, one of many written by people emulating "yogiims" to explain/entertain about a vast array of topics.

I like the Payne/Drew score, although not as much as the one penned by Freddie Redd. Considering the fact that Payne has Clark Terry, Bennie Green, Duke Jordan, Ron Carter and Charlie Persip on hand, how can you go wrong?

Everybody heard this one?

Well, it's not your point, but that doesn't mean that my views are irrelevant. Threats, no matter how unlikely, are still a possibility, and in this matter they are unnecessary and easily avoided. There is absolutely no need to publicly share information that might in any way reflect negatively on our host. What we say privately is our own business. I can't understand why this alternative would not satisfy the different positions expressed here.

I'd like to add two points, if I may. To say that Jim has "nothing to fear" in a potential copyright lawsuit argues the point that he would win any such litigation. Such an argument misses the point that he nonetheless could be harassed with the threat of legal action. That harassment, brought on by our actions, would be inexcusable, imo. My second point is this: if a member is interested in obtaining or sharing a questionable title mentioned in someone's post, they need only send a PM to that person. A private message is an easy and effective way of communicating information that might raise questions or concern in a public forum.

That's fine. I'll settle for a Sky King Tele-Blinker ring!
