ah, indeed. note that postage is €13 per package + €1 per item (CD only)

try www.dustygroove.com they list some of these (others are out of stock) for $14.99

you can only place an order with a private seller through the amazon system and this automatically charges you 16eur per disk. The 4eur is the actual cost.

they will ship abroad, although some may be reluctant to do so. BUT amazon charges you with something like 16 (SIXTEEN) euros for the transport to the US, if I remember correctly. The private sellers will also only have to be paid postage for each CD, whether they mail them individually or not, making larger batches less interesting. To send one disk complete with jewel case to the US from Germany will cost 4 eur.

interesting, tooter had sent me a version of that cover to straighten it out a little and it was on Columbia, not on Philips.

a quick google query reveiled there is a piece on it by John Corbett in Downbeat of January 2002. Maybe he knows?

with alcohol eating away at the brain cells, I wonder how often one can come up with such a brilliant idea.

I'm a scientist. Really, trust me...

Ubu, did you get the Cohn/Sims? That one is pretty great as well.

1946: the Dexter Gordon Quintet records for Savoy 1963: Sonny Stitt - Stitt Plays Bird (Atlantic) 1964: Monk records for his Monk's Time album (Columbia) 1968: Alice Coltrane Quartet records for the Monastic Trio album (Impulse!) 1992: Dewey and Joshua Redman - Choices (Enja), first of two consecutive days

here's one to temper your nerves: http://cigarette.com/quit%20smoking%20circles.htm

That's pretty amazing but I feel more sad watching this as the young lady obviously hurt herself but the tossers are too busy whooping it up to even notice. Puds. ah, THAT one. saves me from viewing it again... drats, it's just isn't it?

drats, read the same piece twice and didn't even notice.... :rsly:

thanks for the reply. much appreciated. edit: this looks silly, but it is serious, ok?

no? I always thought that "could" belonged to the realm of possibilities, as do guesses. I guess I could be wrong, though... I would admit that guesses do not exactly belong with "the hell don't understand," but they do belong to "could as well," IMHO. I guess we could as well agree to disagree on this. o yes, THAT is ALWAYS a possibility when having me around. Even if I don't use Colgate Blue Minty Gel nor wear a fancy hat. The hooey part is your words and my mouth. I never said you wrote hooey, did I? To hide behind the fact that no one is defending Ratliff on this particular board is an argument I am not going to accept. Then again, I WILL gladly accept your take on the man's writing as I will accept that of others on this board. I will now read the piece Nate has posted. Maybe I will have formed an opinion myself after reading two of the man's pieces.

AEoC - Urban Bushmen (ECM)

Jim, you scrutinised and came to something "spledidly true," how is it that does not reveal "essential correctness" then? Playing the devil's advocate, why is "(not) getting" what Larry meant with his Mobley passage different from (not) getting this passage by Ratliff? Both are not examples of lucid writing (sorry Larry... ). Either you get it, or you don't and you need to think a lot in between too. And if you don't get what Larry wrote, it's all a bunch of hooey, just like Ratliff's is. Ask Dan. Larry, cutting the man some slack, the passage could as well translate to something more like that the "best" in jazz combines all sorts of influences to a coherent whole. Not necessarily something I would support with my life, but reading other writings it's not too exotic either -- some even pander it as a definition and/or origins of the idiom. And certainly not as absurd as you claim it to be. BTW & to underline, I am not saying that I understand what the hell Ratliff is saying here.

yes & no depends on what you are referring to

is it love?
