How many more Impulse Remixed-, Verve Downmixed-, Blue Note Upmixed-, Katie Meluah-and-Jamie-Cullum-crap-mix-mails are the various jazz labels going to send out? Why do I actually sign up for an e-mail newsletter with jazz labels if they don't put out any more jazz? No, I don't want to see Jamie Cullum, Peter Cincottit, Katie Meluah or any other 14-year old new jazz sensation live ... and I don't want to buy their stuff either. And I don't want to have or hear about another jazz remix project. NEVER. AGAIN. @@**! I'm going to have my name removed from every label newsletter, change my e-mail address, move house, ... What a bunch of freakin' clowns. Thanks for listening.

Sounds like a true horror show.

Yeah, the rapport between the two was amazing. But she also has 100% command of her set and incredible dynamics. Wow, again.

It's a wearable cake.

Together with some cheapo stuff.

Got it today.

Saw her playing with Mike Stern on a TV programme over here yesterday (a short bit from 55 Bar, NY). I'm in love. I don't want to sound politically incorrect, but I've never heard a woman play like this. Actually, I haven't heard anyone play that damn good in a long time. Homepage Has anyone seen her live and shares my enthusiam? Edit: Oh, she plays drums. Edit (2): From drummerworld ... From hers ite:

I always wait until stuff becomes available at a reasonable price in Europe from my usual haunts. I've completely stopped importing from the States because it is a total, absolute and complete pain in the arse. There, I said it.

This one from CNN today:

Sister Rosa Parks by The Neville Brothers [...] Chorus Thank you Miss Rosa, you are the spark, You started our freedom movement Thank you Sister Rosa Parks. Thank you Miss Rosa you are the spark, You started our freedom movement Thank you Sister Rosa Parks. [...]

Tasty! Yum, yum.

Is there any way that you could put the CD online (to save on postage) so we could download it?

Believe me, you don't need your liver as much as you need this baby. Just drink less and read more. Cheers!

Amazon.co.uk has this one quite cheap at the moment, for 49 pounds (in my case that came out to be (incl. shipping to Germany) a grand total of EUR 84.52). I would think that at the moment that is the cheapest price anywhere, especially for Europeans. Great book and mine was packaged very well. They simply put the original box from the publisher into a padded box of their own. Despite its weight, it got here in mint condition (inside of the original box, it was also packaged very well with shrinkwrap, cardboard and protective papers). It's a bargain! Get it. P.S.: Funnily enough, the original box still contained a red "Do not open until October 4, 2005 ..." sticker) and also helps us customers figure out how books like this one or the very similar Complete Far Side Gallery (production value) can be produced so cheaply. The box states, amongst other things in big bold letters, "[...]Printing: 1 [...] Printed in China". Edit: link and image Amazon.co.uk

I usually paid below 40 by waiting long enough (sometimes a mere 15 - 20 on eBay), but too many people seem to have caught on and the new boxes have a way of disappearing relatively fast. I'm hooked, so I went the jpc route (I still had a voucher to blow there courtesy of a project I helped on, so the thing didn't cost me a cent). @brownie : I'm a nasty customer. I spend tons of time at the Harmonia Mundi store (small but good) ... and then buy elsewhere (or online). Harmonia Mundi/Chant du Monde is/are not well represented on the Internet, so checking out their stuff in Strasbourg has become a regular thing for me. Yes, a winstub it will be. There's a great one very close (forgot the name of the street) where we always go (I'm going with a French colleague of mine who drives to Strasbourg about once a week; it's only about 45 minutes away from here plus 15 minutes to get to some totally obscure parking lots he always uncovers) and where we get brilliant food from the Alsace region, usually too much wine, and about two hours of non-stop stories from the owner who lived through/suffered through the upheavals of French-German history. Very pleasant guy and the real Strasbourg atmosphere (the half-timbered bulilding is in the oldest part of Strasbourg, with Gudd Stub and all, if anyone knows what that is). Hey, I'm getting all tingly thinking about the trip. I'll be having 1/4 on each of you guys. Santé/Prost!

I'll have a look at their shop (Harmonia Mundi) in Strasbourg sometime next week. There's also a really nice café not far from there, so if it's not too cold and cloudy, I'll endulge in a nice glas of wine with some Distel playing on my mp3 player.

Duh. JPC already has it (just talked to them). *hits purchase button*

Yes, but try a reading from the original score (f. ex. the Dohnanyi recording with the Cleveland Orchestra) and not the reworked and overly syrupy Rimsky-Korsakov version produced about 20 years later, in 1886, which is the one found on CD/LP in 99% of the cases (and which is also the one in which it received its first performance). There is a world of a difference between those two versions.

Skaal! http://www.aperitif.no/images/72566/Lysholm-Linie-200b.jpg (Sorry, but I think the Norwegian one is best)

Ditto.

Hi, does anyone have "Spaceman" by 'Babatunde' Tony Ellis (late 70's/early 80's). If you do have this tune or the album it's on, could you send me a PM? Thanks.
