THAT'S the holdup???

Heads up:

$5.99 plus free shipping when u buy 5 or more: Code C5FS6 ..Basically getting you the "yourmusic" price. But there might be some discs that BMG has that yourmusic doesn't. I know that's the case with some of the box sets, but not so sure about the individual discs.

One small group:

I'm going to try and get back up to Austin to see the show at Antone's, and looking forward to it. My last Sco show was in 2000 (or maybe early 01) just before "Works for Me" came out, so it was the Bump tour.

Found a copy on Ebay, and there is definitely an ECM logo up at top left. Curious...

How did this ever end up on ECM anyway? David Byrne on ECM is an interesting thought, but "fits" as well as...say....Norah Jones on Blue Note. Is it an instrumental release, or does he sing?

Second the Goo Gone recommendation. It's cheap, and available at better hardware/home stores everywhere...

I agree with the comments about Elias' playing on this. She is very impressive! I think it's one of the better group recordings I've heard this year as well!

...there's a used copy going for $100 on amazon.com. There's a cheaper copy, but appears to just be the discs.

If I was in "the business" I would probably agree with you, Chris. But I don't get to interact with musicians very often at all (MUCH less so since returning to the U.S.), so I appreciate and enjoy the autographs I have in my collection, asked for or not. Sonny Rollins autographed my copy of Saxophone Colossus in Stuttgart (I asked him), and it's one of the most special autographs I have.

My Aggies looked absolutely AWFUL today against Baylor...even though we won 16-13 in overtime. That's two years in a row of playing poorly against the lowly Baylor Bears. Reggie McNeal was held in check all day today, and probably just killed his Heisman chances. And the schedule hasn't really been tough yet, that's the bad thing. Our defense is terrible, and if our offense isn't on their game, we're in big trouble. edit - stadium pic from today's game:

That's a GREAT photo of Sco! Would look very nice hanging next to my other Sco photograph from Sheldon Photography! I really enjoy the photography of yours that I've seen, Mark! Was this his "Ray Charles Project" that you saw? How did you like the show?

Cool photos! It almost looks like cigarettes have been airbrushed out of his hands!!

Make up your mind!

bump... Picked up the 1996 "Live in Tokyo" cd last week in Austin. This one is interesting, and includes the older lineup, not the current trio that I heard previously on Slow Breath, Silent Mind. The lineup here is trumpet, trombone, rhodes, guitar, bass, drums, & percussion. Funky, improvisational, and fun. PS - This album wasn't recorded in Tokyo, but in Oklahoma...

...Mitch "Wild Thing" Williams ain't got nothing on Chewy!!!

To each their own, but I've never intentionally had anything autographed for the purpose of selling the item at a profit....or with the thought that I can re-sell it later for whatever reason. Some of my autographs are personalized, some aren't; I'm happy to have met the artist and to have a special mememto of that meeting.
