Finally ordered through HMV. Went much more smoothly than I would have thought from some of the above. Now we'll see if the order shows up. Says ready for "despatch"(sic)!

Those look like bad seats. :) Going to see The Cookers tonight. BTW I'm a little disconcerted by the reaction to some of the Clean Feed CDs earlier in this thread. For some (many) of us these may be the only way to hear these musicians at all. Better the CDs than nothing IMHO.

Can't seem to find Happy Valley in a US format DVD.

Rub it in Maybe they have had to restock it. Got it. Order placed today I did also Mine has shipped.

Francine Prose: Lovers At The Chameleon Club (Paris 1932) One of my favorite writers.

I liked both seasons of Line Of Duty.

Watched the first episode of Gracepoint. I had watched Broadchurch. Anna Gunn is who attracted me to this remake. Same male lead as in the British series. Is it my imagination or does he now have an "American" accent? Never watched Dr. Who so have no idea what he sounded like in that show.

Whatever defects The Bridge has are overcome by the quality of Demian Bichir.

Just got the email too - looking forward to that NYA4 set I got that e-mail too - BUT I can't find the CDs on their website. E-mailed - waiting for reply.

Great soprano saxophone player too.

Season finale of The Bridge.

Mine says "preparing for shipment".

Amazing!! "Hurried my ass" over & bought it. Thanks.

William Parker: Wood Flute Songs - disc 2

I'm in the same boat, so I never buy just for a "sonic upgrade". Saves me money, & I still enjoy the music I have.

Bought Silver Cornet today directly from the Nessa website. Shipping notice within one hour. Chuck - do you prefer that to PayPal or doesn't it matter?

Chris Pavone: The Accident

Thank you sir, I suppose one man's meat etc etc . Not sure how or why but Rempis has elevated his game in a substantial way. In terms of performance, I don't think there is a significant difference between Vol. 1 and Vol. 3 (don't think I have Vol. 2). Vol. 3 might show a bit more comfort level. You might look at the track listings for each CD and see which has the more appealing Lacy composition line-up, but I don't think you can go wrong with any of them NB: These albums, like Lacy's albums, need a couple of listens to start getting into them. I like all 3. You might also like Ideal Bread: Beating The Teens, among others.

O.K. - I tried Catalytic Sounds again. At first it said $12.75 shipping - BUT when I filled in my address it changed to $2.69. I placed the order & look forward to receiving it.

I'll check again (Catalytic). Maybe they thought I was in Europe.

House Of Cards - US version, last 2 episodes of season 2.

Downtown Music Gallery carries TUM releases. I don't buy from DMG - too "complicated" for me. I've sucessfully purchased TUM CDs from Dusty Groove & even Amazon. BTW, anyone have a US source for Not Two CDs. Squidco told me today that Not Two is not interested in selling in the US. I tried Catalytic Sounds & they wanted $12,75 to ship one CD via USPS. I declined.

Wadada Leo Smith: Great Lakes Suite Kasey Chambers: Bittersweet

1st episode of new season of The Good Wife.

The book is good. Hopefully the movie will be too.
