  1. and no one keeps the oldies of taking advantage of that.
  2. Why? Who cares about what a seller with a nice item posts in other forums. The Organissimo forum is not a commercial site and I don't think it should be used by newbies solely for the purpose of selling/trading stuff. we're not talking spame here, merely a trade offer. you still haven't explained why you think this is "not done." this site being commercial or not has very little to do with it all.
  3. I think it is a bad idea. Let's not start tip-toeing too gently.
  4. o boy, aren't we all nice to the newcomers. "yeah, but he started posting in the trade forum right away and didn't introduce himself and he called us brothers and gasp! he wants to get rid of his Mobley set and... whine" this trade forum is a function of this board. if one needs to pass a litmus test before being allowed to post here, then maybe someone can put that into words and pin it as a FAQ somewhere. the guy is not selling anything, he's not spamming anyone, it's a legit offer. we're in our after hours club, a guy walks in with a mobley set under his arm and offers it for trade. he's not rubbing it under our noses like some rose-salesman. I'd not take him up on it as I don't know who he is and whether he can be trusted, but that's his problem right?
  5. yeah! yech! and I still haven't fathomed myself for putting up with it when it's Bud, even finding it an interesting part of the performance many times.
  6. time is of the essence. Some times I find it, sometimes I don't. This time I found a little and ran through. Maybe I will return to the latter half of the tracks later.
  7. ah, track 8 has been identified, thank god, I can sleep tonight- I don't have that particular album-
  8. track 1. it took me a (admittedly only short) while to place this correctly, but it is of course from this album. The flute is great here, a very strong performance overall, nice, sweet melody and pretty pretty flute. No one should be fooled by the novelty concept of the album, nor by the silly cover, this one is great. track 2. the theme does little for me and I don't really like the unisono lines. the solos are more interesting, with that nice mysterious bass vamp underneath. The guitar solo keeps me attentive, the tenor is nice enough but sounds a little at loss with all the space it gets to fill; it does pick up later on though. I could have done without the drum solo. Nice track, but too long. track 3. Lee Konitz going close to the edge. A little sleuthing brought me to this album (track 4). Latter day Konitz can really move too close to "too pretty" for comfort I find. On other days I like it well enough. track 4. cool beans! Nice vamp going there and cool "eastern" tinged percussion. This sounds like something by someone from the Istabile conglomerate. the "All Blues" vamp quote is a nice touch. track 5. very nice, very curious to find out who this is. track 6. the playing is great, the humming is really obnoxious. track 7. the bass is great, so are the drums. The trumpet makes it all a bit too Milesian for my tastes. I'd like to tell the players to cheer up. track 8. o boy, does this alto sound familiar, drats. and great stuff too! track 9. I'd wager a guess that this is Tjader. a great track, the repetitive rhythms give it a nice flavour. the orchestral blasts are the icing. track 10. man, this sounds depressed and a bit like bad television series, what with that echo. apart from that, this is neat. (edited for psellink)
  9. He is a reasonably good English baritone player gasp! you don't say! (and BTW, you're lying about the "reasonably" part too)
  10. they should ask for more cookies. 234987657857 aren't enough by far.
  11. not me but say hi to brownie and have fun!
  12. yo couw, can't you spiff up that Gokudo image? sure.
  13. Haliburton
  14. been watching the man do some on DVD lately and can follow your imagery keep them LEGS moving man.
  15. I see I made a mistake, this is better
  16. I think pandering copies of copyrighted material is not a good idea, even with a cross my heart hope to die promise to be good and buy the real thing clause attached. Furthermore, I doubt people will have the time, look at how the BFTs eroded the time spent on the AotW threads.
  17. did I check in already? I'm here, and so are Mike and deus BTW.
  18. I stare a lot at the periwinkle banner above, it has a positive and soothing effect on my joy receptors. it must subliminimal.
  19. of course, it IS a pretty awesome (yet typical) solo. It never ceases to amaze me how Monk visits all these wildly different places and yet make it all a coherent logical whole. Also here the guy makes me go all "How the FUCK did he get to THIS damn line here?" those were today's uneducated musings of a Monk fan, film at eleven.
  20. dunno, it's bit... purple. the top looks cold now.
  21. what if you put milk in it?
