I have no answer to your sound & timing of release questions. Sorry!!

Still valuable music IMO.

It's my favourite Monk recording. Hmm. .... Interesting, as a big Monk fan I rate this fairly low, it's a bit of a mess IIRC but I've not played it in a while. Being a favourite doesn't mean it's his best, but I find the newcomers bring a freshness to the date that I find really entertaining. Some of Monk's later quarter dates can sound rote, but this one is lots of fun. It's O.K. I'm not thrilled by Joe Gordon on the album.

Tarnoff: The Bohemians

Ghost Loop

Lucinda Williams

I liked Fargo too.

Amnesia Brown sort of fits & is also very good.

Thought it was safe to return to this thread. Guess not.

Love it, always have. Monk and Philly Joe! Me too! But what he does know, he knows.

Not sure I can explain, but I really like everything Draper is on - McLean, Roach, Coltrane, his own.

Bucks now 7 games above .500. First time in many years.

Yes, I'd forgotten about that one, must get it out (gets shelved elsewhere because of the oversized NotTwo sleeves) I'd love to see him live It is excellent.

Nikki Parrott

Try Silke Eberhard if you haven't.

Me too!

I still prefer the Blue Note albums.

Santa Cruz - someone on this board who shall remain nameless allegedly had Santa Cruz for sale at Amazon marketplace. I ordered it, received a shipping notice & then (oops) he didn't have it. Rapid refund. I'll believe the reissue when I see it.

I'm no expert, but many of the Three Sounds CDs on Blue Note are worthwhile IMHO.

Mainly horseshit from the usual angry young / old man. The smartest guy in the room syndrome. At least no "douchebag" references yet. I'm done with this thread.

Playing it right now - nice!

The Matt Brewer is nice. Just ordered the new Sipiagin.

The CD is fine with me.

FWIW, I wanted Green Bay. Oh, well - maybe next year.
