Congratulations! And, BTW, how many nominees/winners do we actually have on this board?

Any opinions on this one? Cheers!

Ordered the Hybrid SACD, my first one. Cheers!

Happy birthday!

what's there to explain, bro'? i don't understand. you either dig it, man, or you don't. hep smoke the reefer-- clem He's my nephew, not my bro'. Our drug days are over...my many years ago, his...about 60 days ago. Don't fear the reefer.

Excellent summary.

I'll check it out! Thanks!

I have that one! I forgot to mention that I have a rather large Ray Brown collection as well. Cheers!

Believe me, I'm still a Gene Harris fanatic but that was my handle at the BNBB and I decided a change was in order when I registered here. Ah. I didn't know. Cheers!

P.S.: Why "former"?

Thanks, Dan! Yes, Frank Wess sounds like the way to go. I'll have a look at the others as well. Cheers!

Your avatar is "stretched".

So, with my limited budget I've been on a Gene Harris buying "binge" ... I got: 01. Gene Harris. The Best of the Concord Years. Concord 2000. 02. Gene Harris. Live at Otter Crest. Concord 2001. 03. Gene Harris. Ballad Essentials. Concord 2003. I like very much what I'm hearing and I'd like to delve a bit deeper. What should I be gettin'? Earlier stuff? Same period? Recommendations? I can only afford two more, so recommend the best ... please. Cheers!

There's an age limit?

I don't like most of the album, but "Sleigh Ride" has kicked off the 24th of December in my house since the CD came out. The audio quality of the sample on amazon.com sucks ... that number played on a powerful stereo with good sound just smokes ... rocks ... shakes the walls ... Love it! Cheers!

"I think we're parked, man!" No "dude" in that one, but ....

Yes, but log files show that there are not all that many inquiring minds about that actually click to read the rest of the article. Just one of the many problems. Fair enough, but fair use is fair use, at least in the US. I don't see how this argument is much different from arguing that using quotes in scholarly journals and books leads to declining sales of the quoted books and back issues of periodicals. You can't write with sources very effectively if you can't show people the parts of the sources that are relevant to the point you are making. True, but you have to admit that with the Internet, this whole "quoting business" is taking on a whole other dimension. "Fair use" is often not what I see ... it goes beyond that. On a daily, sometimes hourly basis. I don't think the laws were made for this new medium. Cheers!

Hey, I'm in a Christmas mood. Cheers!

I wonder if anyone noticed ...?

I left that part out of my copy-and-paste job! I did stop and think that maybe I should just provide a link to the details but pasting the whole article looks much cooler! I can definintely see deus62's point, though. The fact is that websites do make money from how many hits they get and selling ads. It's analogous to TV stations and advertisers. If all of a sudden you started a local TV station and started broadcasting re-runs of "Friends", you'd be in a mighty heap of trouble. And "Friends" is free, right? And because of you , I "lifted" this one of the same site for my own site: On Strike! Cheers!

I waited and bought a disco compilation.

Yes, but log files show that there are not all that many inquiring minds about that actually click to read the rest of the article. Just one of the many problems.

Now, that sounds decidedly cool!

Fabulous!

You mean I couldn't just return it? "Uh... it arrived like that... can you send another set? Ok, what about just the box?.... It would actually be fun to hear about some reasons why people return Mosaic sets or parts thereof. I'm sure some "fans" are quite inventive when it comes around to returning things or trying to get "freebies" from Mosaic.
