giuseppi logan project About this project Giuseppi Logan was a contemporary of Albert Ayler, John Coltrane and Pharaoh Sanders. An accomplished sax player, as well as clarinet, flute and piano player, Giuseppi became known for his free form compositional genius. Having studied at the New England Conservatory, in the sixties Logan was hailed as one of the bright lights of free jazz. In the seventies, Giuseppi disappeared from view and remained lost to the music world for over 30 years. Around 2009 Giuseppi was found playing for change in Tompkins Square Park and assistance was found to get him housing. At the same time I was returning to my roots as a jazz musician and getting deeply into free-form jazz guitar. As I heard Giuseppi’s story and that he still loved to play, I recognized a rare opportunity to work with a gigantic talent. Through friends and contacts, we were able to connect and after one failed attempt that saw Giuseppi hospitalized for months we met up with Cooper Moore and Larry Roland in Manhattan for a full day of recording. The highlights of the session are captured in the Giuseppe Logan Project, with 3 new original compositions and Giuseppi’s unique twist on 3 classic jazz tunes.

from the book of wiki--- 7 Up is a brand of a lemon-lime flavored non-caffeinated soft drink. The rights to the brand are held by Dr Pepper Snapple Group in the United States, and PepsiCo (or its licensees) in the rest of the world, including Puerto Rico, where the concentrate is manufactured at the Pepsi facility in Cidra.

diet coke wreaks----i refuse..............

are you a coke head? From a recent, Coca-Cola corporate presentation. The average human drinks 92 Coke products a year. In the US, that number is 403. The point of the chart, from a corporate strategy, was to point out how "under-coked" the emerging word is. In China, Coke consumption is just 38 drinks per year per person! Coca-Cola Just so you realize, Coca-Cola is a lot more than Coke. Here's a look at just their $1 billion brands. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnUKurl7Fog Read more: http://www.businessinsider.com/coca-cola-consumption-per-capita-2012-2#ixzz1ncFhIrXJ list of coca cola products: coca cola product list

out of the past recordsA collector of vintage vinyl knows there are two sides to every story. And the stories are plentiful, amusing and inspiring at Out of the Past Records, 4407-09 W. Madison, owned and operated by Charlie Joe and Marie Henderson. West Garfield Park residents since 1963, the Hendersons are the neighborhood’s power couple — the Berry Gordy and Diana Ross who never left. Part of the great Southern post-war migration, they’ve witnessed a panaroma of social change. They survived the 1968 West Side riots and the subsequent community upheavals. They survived a 1977 arson in a previous West Madison Street location. They survived a flood last year that left more than four feet of water in their store’s basement. They have survived the economic downspin around their current space, which they have occupied since 1986. (article continues)

i,ve seen, and been inspired, by all of jeremy's knick games. he is most definitely nba-counterculture. to see the media take small human interest stories(especially those in media centers)and build them into continents of hot air and profit is typical of today's pop-culture. my take is that most folks are sickened by the vile nba superstar b.s.

Not Mravinksy's Pathetique on DG? a splendid choice, indeed. thx.

barney flats oatmeal stout barney flats oatmeal stout will go unnoticed. it's from a little known unheralded brewery with no creds. this may be the finest stout i've ever experienced. one pour and i was deep in love. one sip. no! it's as black as black could ever be. my heart quickened. ahhhhhhhhh----- this beer is a timeless classic. the modest 6.0 abv belies the flavor of drinks with 3 times the kick and 50 times the renown. the taste is an explosion like the blooming of a lily the incredible oily thick mouthfeel-- hints of sweet raisins, caramel, creosote, apricot, expresso, nutty, bitter chocolate-capped by a classic aftertaste, echoing with the grace of a fine symphony in a grand hall. barney flats oatmeal stout is as seductive as any drink i've tasted. you won't find a better balanced stout. brahms 4th symphony-2nd movement

dwarf bullfighting They say they do it because they want to be taken seriously as athletes, but it’s difficult to watch this troupe of “dwarf” bullfighters, and not cringe just a little. The Enanitos Toreros are a group of six comedians from Yucatan who travel across Mexico to stage bullfights. Another group from South America performs mainly in Colombia. But the Mexican troupe performs about one-third of their shows in the U.S. USA Today:-article continues with link

i will definitely try that one.

strangely, this concept is not repellant to me. i can see how the saltiness and the sweetness in a bacon shake might compliment each other, much like pineapple and pepperoni on a pizza. sometimes yin plus yang equals yum. there is no JOB in my area, but it's a copycat world........ some of our intrepid reporting staff has done there and been that, i'm sure.
