Jazz Junkies released
jlhoots replied to Kamiblue's topic in Jazz In Print - Periodicals, Books, Newspapers, etc...
Freedom of expression for sure. BUT - maybe your next set can be of musicians who weren't destroyed by drugs. -
Yep, to me anyway, it sounds good. I'm currently listening to the latest GFG album, Girl and Robot with Flowers and this is good, atmospheric, slightly retro stuff and yet still sounding contemporary. The album is dedicated to the late Gordon Beck, a hero of keyboard/leader Greg Foat but the overall sound seems to be slightly reminiscent of Roy Budd - which can't be a bad thing, as he was cut down too early in life. There's also a bit of Brian Auger there too, certainly very Brit 1960s / early 70s influences but as I say, it ploughs its own furrows too, not copyist by any means. Definitely worth checking out here: https://soundcloud.c...-group-girl-and Picked it up. Enjoying it. Thanks!!

Moshi Too now available at Dusty Groove.

Read it for our Book Club. I didn't like it either.

Great book indeed.

Amazon UK are usually very quick domestically if you are ordering through their warehouse. If it's from marketplace then you have to be much more patient as these are often coming from further afield. Quite a few of the cheaper things I've had recently have come from Switzerland and taken 2-3 weeks. FWIW, my order is from their warehouse, not from marketplace. Tracking (DHL Global Mail) has an entry as Croydon on Jan. 17. No tracking update since.

Keep in mind that it can take a while for a package to cross the pond and be delivered. The other way around I usually get packages from the United States within 10-14 days, but sometimes it takes longer - at the moment I'm still waiting for a set that was mailed on December 26... I'm waiting for a package from Amazon UK that was shipped 2 weeks ago. OTOH, I received a package from The Netherlands (from subdist.com) in a week.

Bought the CD from Amazon. Very nice. I don't have the book.

From www.platomania.eu. Surely a 2 cd digipack can be shipped for €6 in a bubble mailer (what they use when shipping domestic)? Wereld/World (outside Europe): The fee to deliver your order outside of Europe depends on the type and amount of products you are purchasing. 1-3 cd's = € 6,- More than 3 cd's and all lp's/dvd's, etc.: Up to 500 grams = € 10,- Between 500 grams and 2 kilos = € 20,- More than 2 kilos = € 35,- Orders with more than one item will be send when the order is complete. Just checked Platomania's website and saw those shipping rates. If ordered from them the total for the set including shipping to Australia would be 28.99 euros and I don't find that obscenely expensive. I don't read German. Do you have to open an account on their website? Do they accept PayPal? Creditcards: Visa, Mastercard Registreren is Dutch for to register (upper right corner). And it's Dutch, not German. Don't read either one. -

Monterey Jazz Festival All-Stars will be in Santa Fe in April. Planning to attend.

Agree. BTW, the Silke Eberhard / Ulrich Gumpert duo CD is on the way to me from amazon UK. Apparently jazzwerkstatt doesn't have a U.S. distributor at this time.

Neither did I. A paper tiger. And Green Bay was only picked over the Niners because of Aaron Rogers. The Eastern media, once again, refuses to pick any team from the Bay Area. Atlanta didn't exactly overwhelm Seattle. Oh - & it's RODGERS Niners lose to Patriots in the Super Bowl.
-
Also "don't score too soon". Although 31 seconds left should have meant a Seattle win. My son always told me, "the prevent defense prevents you from winning"!!

Dude, who do you think you are? Hank "The Voice Of Reason" Mobley? Glad to be of service.
-
Lots of pontificating in this thread IMO - I suppose that's O.K.. It's all just opinion & supposition & whatever else it is.
-
I've never had trouble either. BUT - I'm surprised they shipped in the middle of that huge storm. I empathize with erwbol.
