  2. ah! a quest!
  3. no worries! disk two has been spun and some booty has been shaken! No promises, but I'll seek a slot soon!
  4. sorry for being late, stuff is cwazy hereabouts, but here goes! een: how high the moon obviously, organ has some Smithisms might be McDuffisms, but what do I know. This smokes like thunder and reminds me of that live at Newport jam session type business. Loose stuff, some mistakes, but very darn much enjoyable. good for starters, now where's dinner? twee: heheheheh. Louis obviously, but WTF is Captain Beefheart doing there? This has me rolling in my chair so please excuse! ROTFLMAO! drie: damn fine stuff even if it has me stumped! Somewhat reminded me of Rollins going into the latin territory with a similarly relaxed, what do I care mentality about it. vier: speaking of the devil... what do I care.... This one I have, but otherwise 70s Rollins is a bit of a closed book to me. That guitar feghing around on the left is a grand ingredient, it hurtles and sparks and kicks and beckons. Good. vijf: gone with the poot with some obvious mess ups. What's going on here? big fun for sure, like a pastiche of some heavy handed Euro combo trying too hard. Might as well be the Marx brothers. zes: JATP? Although I enjoy this kind of stuff to death, I am real bad at getting down the individuals. zeven: aaaaaah, aaaahaaaahaaaah, yess, I am feeling all holleeeeewoooooood. Pretty cheezy really. If not for the tenor (Ammons?) this would be schlockiest of schlock. Always good to know that schlock may be worthwhile if the right ingredient is there. The 70s were a real shitty time. This gets real shitty towards the end, really. acht: Shepp fer sure, wonder who's on the other channel. And the vocal? Drats! All of them ate too much anyhow and I will sit back and sip their beers and hope I will survive negen: Basie with Jaws fer sure and a bunch more liquor and las vegas and yeeeee haaaaah! tien: it doesn't end. sheee-itte. more of that las vegas romance elf: plunk plunk ding dong! who is it? hi-fly! hi-fly who? hamp I'd say. good shtufffe! twaalf: This is scary. Too many things that don't fit together really. I could learn to love this. dertien: more... veertien: this one was easy to find using amg and google (sue me!), drats! Part of me had expected him there, the other one not. I guess the first part is right. vijftien: sounds like Stan the Man and his Girl laying it down like a carpet to sa-wwingg on. Naaaaaaiiiiiccceee. zestien: beer! zeventien: this sucks (but only huskily so). a bit too Las Vegas one more again.
  5. to cool down in this hot summer weather: snowball fight! go into the online lounge and you can play against fellow organissimites!

  9. check some previous recommendations in this thread
  10. I use Photoshop for the (photo-)graphics and plain ole MSWord for the backcovers. As for fonts: you may want to look into some spiffy free font types like those available here.
  11. 1956, Nat and Julian Adderley record for EmArcy (To the Ivy League from Nat Adderley) 1963, Sonny Rollins and Coleman Hawkins record for RCA Victor (Sonny Meets Hawk) 1990, Abdullah Ibrahim records the OST for No Fear, No Die (Enja-TipToe)
  12. erm.... at 0,71422619047619047619047619047619 cents per CD, this puppy would only cost 1 euro 19,99 cents. Back to the school bench with you!
  13. Because the 1961 session is split over the two discs on the Complete Quartets release, you only miss one disk, Born to be Blue, which features the tracks with Ike Quebec. The two tunes with Patato are limited to the Mosaic set only.
  14. 1956, Shelly Manne and his Men record for Contemporary (More Swinging Sounds) 1957, Bob Brookmeyer records for Pacific Jazz (Traditionalism Revisited) 1962, Sonny Stitt and the Top Brass (Atlantic), ctd the next day 1975, Dizzy Gillespie records live at the Montreux Jazz Festival (Pablo) 1979, Art Pepper records for Galaxy (Landscape, Besame Mucho) 1980, Jan Ptaszyn Wróblewski records for Poljazz (Z Lotu Ptaka)

  17. Besides most of the albums mentioned, I would have recommended Ruben and the Jets as an album full of the silly doo wop pop song deconstructions found on Freak Out! but driven to the extreme. For some reason FZ decided to redo the bass and drums on this album way way after the fact and the current CD version of Ruben and the Jets is really awful. More so as the stiff in-the-closet drums and bass of the original LP contributed a whole lot to the atmosphere to make this a great album. Similarly, the CD mix of Hot Rats is dramatically different from the LP version. The original vinyl has a much jazzier sound than the CD. Another pity. As mentioned before, luckily you can simply skip the "enhancements" made to the Uncle Meat album when it came out on CD.
