Once again you're purposely trying to offend. There's no way in hell you can say something like BDP's "You Must Learn" is "pure unadulterated shit". And if you can honestly say something like that is shit, then we will never see eye to eye on music. I want no part of your jazz snobbery.

Saw this posted on another board, but it's worth repeating: SRV and Jeff Healey - Look at Little Sister

Ahh, it's nice to see board members bonding.

Sad to hear, Jeff was far too young. Rest in Peace. Sad for his children to lose their father while they're so young as well.

Happy Birthday Al! Thanks for all you bring to the board!

Thanks for the list! Keith Jarrett was on in April 78? I can't imagine him on SNL. And does anybody recall what Miles Davis performed in '81? Or who was in the band for this performance? edit - looks like Miles performed "Jean Pierre", based on a little googling. Paul Simon & George Harrison, 11/20/76

Tonight Wilco is on SNL. They just played "Hate it Here", which souned pretty good. Nels Cline had a brief solo, and seemed more interested in staying out of the camera. I'm liking the new Wilco album more and more lately. Any other recent musical performances you've enjoyed? Or some of the classics from way back?

Where've you been? -_-

Ok.

It's halftime of the A&M/Oklahoma game, and the Aggies have scored 10 points. 10 points! This was a team that was ranked in the top 10 earlier this season. Frustrating to be a fan of this team. When Billy Gillispie bolted for Kentucky, and they brought Mark Turgeon in as coach from Wichita State, it looked like they weren't going to lose a step. Not so. This team has a bunch of quality big men (DeAndre Jordan, Joseph Jones, and Bryan Davis), and yet they never pound it inside. That should be their offense until someone can shut it down. Instead they spend their time shooting 15-20 ft jumpers constantly, so they don't get fouled, and if they're not shooting well, it's game over. They were a lock for the NCAA tourney earlier on, now I think they're gonna end up in the NIT. Aarrrgh.

I'll buy it from ya for half price.

Harland's a solid drummer. He was on Lloyd's "Sangam" with Zakir Hussain, as well as "Jumping the Creek". I spoke with him last year on the SF Jazz tour, and he was excited about the Lloyd Quartet w/Moran. I'm looking forward to this recording.

There are some phenomenal prices on the classical boxes, also (e.g., the 12-disc Neville Marriner Complete Mozart Symphonies for 10 bucks and change). But maybe that classical stuff's a bit over your head. Well duh, I *AM* an Aggie.

Thanks Mikelz! I have a couple of SD discs right now, though not all of 'em. My only concern was whether there's been significantly better sounding reissues since then, or discs with bonus material. Doesn't seem to be the case here. And for these crazy prices it's stupid not to pick up stuff you're even half-way considering. Like you I am pretty set on all of the jazz boxes I wanted from BMG. And for the most part, the rock stuff too.

PM sent. You stud, you.

Yeah.....but you know, I would have had to pretend you rock too, whereas Al really DOES rock!

Gotcha covered, Agg. I'll PM you to make sure we're still on, and then I'll FWD the total to you. It's things like this that make this the best hang on the internet! Thanks Al, you rock! PM sent too.

For anyone getting the good box set offer, would you be willing to order the following boxes for me, and have them shipped directly to me? Steely Dan - Citizen Steely Dan (4 cd) Led Zeppelin - Complete Studio Recordings (10 cd) Velvet Underground - Peel Slowly and See (5 cd) Ray Charles - Pure Genius (7 cd/1 dvd) I'd send you a check to cover the cost, plus be willing to buy you a single cd of your choice from yourmusic or BMG.

No workee here either. I think it depends on which standard offer they extend to you at any given time. And that doesn't appear to be consistent from member to member. I'm currently getting the Buy 1 Get 90% off offer.

Unfortunately, that's not my standard offer right now. I'm getting the Buy 1 get 90% off offer right now.... Maybe it's because of how many free items I got earlier. No wait, then Ron would be excluded more than me!

Thanks for reminding me - haven't looked there in a while! And where's Ink Conndicknnnn?

I don't remember if I've posted this before, but it's still one of my favorite rap songs: Boogie Down Productions - You Must Learn Couldn't find it on Youtube, but this is the version that's best.

Maybe it was F8E2 - I tried F8E1 through 4, and two of 'em worked. Try again, Nojjy!

F8E1 - Get 1 Free Cd F8E3 - Get 3 Free CDs One time use only, but the "DEAL" is back!
