Sure - I have the more "legit" Passions Of A Man box. Also agree that Tijuana Moods is a must.

Start with Atlantic, Columbia, Impulse (IMO) before the Debut material.

I even like The Hardbop Grandpop.

40 & sunny. Went to the All King's Day dances at Jemez pueblo - spectacular!!!

162

Van Morrison - thought it would never happen, but I just got bored 5-6 years ago.

And you won't like them as the series progresses...the exception being Richard Harrow. Even Chalky White, who I dig (as in "don't feel any warmth towards, but still have a sense of understanding and respect for" b/c he reminds me so much of some modern-day people I've known) even his once rock-solid principles eventually get perverted. It's a whole bunch of twisted fucks on this show, and the parade doesn't stop. But it's a good story well told, and if the moral is that anybody can/will do anything to anybody when they think they won't be held accountable (or can get around/away from it if they are), then I have to say that the moral of the story is one with which I reluctantly/sadly agree. I like it when Patricia Arquette suddenly shows up as Nucky's Florida associate / girl friend.

Thanks for letting us know. Got 'em. They're very nice IMO.

Kate Atkinson: Life After Life

Bill Evans: Consecration

I really like both volumes!!

Anita O'Day: High Times, Hard Times

He didn't avoid it!!

Packers win. I'm happy! Sorry Chuck & others.

A.O. Scott's review in the NYT deals with the issues the film raises. http://www.nytimes.com/2013/12/25/movies/dicaprio-stars-in-scorseses-the-wolf-of-wall-street.html?ref=movies&_r=0

I liked both movies. Warning - Wolf Of Wall Street is 3 hours long, although I confess it didn't put me to sleep.

The Centaur & The Phoenix R.I.P.

BTW, already (obviously) watched the first 8 episodes of season 5 before starting the final 8 episodes. Came in 2 separate DVD boxes.

You mean season 5A? BTW, what did you think of the 4th season finale? The final 8 episodes - says The Final Season on my DVD box. Season 4 finale completed the transformation of Walter / Heisenberg.

Bears look terrible tonight. Eagles currently ahead by 43 points.

The High & Mighty Hawk is one of my favorite albums.

Fire In The West R.I.P.

Homeland - season 2

Jeez - you guys are tough. I guess I've just mellowed as I've gotten older.
