Not much happening at yourmusic lately, but a couple of new titles that I noticed: Harry Edison - Sweets Joe Newman Quintet - at Count Basie's

It's missing a major ingredient....

Definitely not Anderson. But he could sing "Video Killed the Radio Star" with the best of them! That looks like it might be a fun nostalgia type show. I still enjoy the Drama album quite a bit. And Wakeman claims he'll no longer be touring after this year, I believe. So it's entirely possible that Geoff Downes could end up being the Yes keyboardist again.

I have never heard any of Deep's music, but I do recall how rudely he treated Bertrand.

I don't see a problem with buying used cds, personally. They were rightfully purchased, originally, and royalties were paid. The only thing that has happened is that the ownership has changed hands, and in theory some middleman/men (used cd store, seller on ebay, etc) have made a buck or two in the process. But the creators got the fees they were entitled to. Same logic as buying a used car. The car company got their money on the original sale. Why would they be upset if people purchase used cars - is it money lost to them because the used purchaser isn't buying a new car??

I don't copy mine either. I trade/sell things i don't care to keep, or things that i somehow end up with duplicates of. No cdr-ing here. In fact, i could count my cdrs on one hand i think.

I agree with Chris' sentiment. Trading is one thing, but when you keep a CDR of the title after passing on ownership, that's effectively creating an extra copy of the music for which the artist gets no income.

Anyone looking for a nice Kinks compilation? I found this one a while back, and think it fits the bill nicely: Track Listings Disc: 1 1. You Really Got Me 2. All Day and All of the Night 3.

...all is well. I'm told Jeff is merely gearing up for the start of NFL training camp, which is about 3 weeks away.

Klaatu barada nikto!

Ok, which one is Chris?

Feliz Cumpleanos!!!! (i hope you're 6, because i got this image at a discount, since there are only 5 strawberries on it)

Che with an attitude!!!

FYI - that CD is in the clearance section of BMG at the moment too, if you're a member. $2.99 plus s/h. Works out to just about the same as yourmusic.com...

I've only got three Vandermark discs so far, but enjoy them all: V5 - Simpatico Sound in Action Trio - Design in Time Spaceways Inc. - Thirteen Cosmic Standards He's a guy I'll certainly pick up discs from when I stumble across them.

I'm partial to the local beers in Stuttgart. Dinkel Acker has a nice Marzen, though the normal pilsners taste plenty good (in the 1 Liter Mass size, of course!) at the Canstatter Volksfest: Also, I haven't had a bad Czech beer yet - Gambrinus and Lobkowicz are both pretty tasty.

slightly off topic.... I was in Austin for part of last week, on vacation (also out in the hill country ) and picked up the local freebie paper, the Austin Chronicle, to check out any potential live shows worth hitting. Not much was happening, but I did notice an ad for a place called "Kenny Dorham's Back Yard", on 11th and Lydia. Was pleasantly surprised to see the name, actually. Anyone been there? Is this run by the Dorham family or something? Any good music going on there? A quick web check only turned up this: "Named for legendary jazz trumpeter and East Austinite, Kenny Dorham’s Backyard is DiverseArts’ outdoor music venue, located in the heart of the historic East End cultural district, just down the street from Dorham’s last Austin home. Jazz, blues, rhythm and blues, and gospel, fine arts and crafts exhibits, children’s programming, and more. "

Check this previous thread out for further discussion on this album.

Get it while it's hot: Pink Floyd at Live 8

I posted the Vision Fest 2005 Schedule back in April, but didn't get much response either. I would have LOVED to have been at some of the performances!!

if they stick Ben Affleck on the comet first, I'm all for it!

I dunno, I'm torn on this one. If you could swap Rasheed & Tim straight up, would Sheed have been able to score as many PPG playing against Detroit's tough inside defense? I still agree he didn't dominate the series, either way.
