He sounds great on the (relatively) new Kris Davis Clean Feed CD.

Eddie Palmieri Septet

3rd episode of The Bridge. I still like it.

Looking for trouble I suppose, but I prefer Jarrett to Shipp.

Parsnips are nice. So are turnips.

I think this will work. http://home.earthlink.net/~eskelin/Site/Ellery%20Eskelin.html Thanks a lot for that, jhoots. Seems that Google can't find the site using "Prime Source Records" which must be a bit worrying for him...or not! This must mean he's only selling via mail-order and not using the normal on-line retail sites...ah, well.... BTW has anyone bought directly from his site.....all OK? No problems here in the US. Don't know what shipping to the UK will be.

I have the ECM "version". Sounds fine to me.

Gillian Flynn: Dark Places

The Penguins - I know, not jazz but what the heck!!

That's what you get here. I like it.

Me too - only I saw The Bad Plus on Sat. & Heath Bros. on Fri.

Shipped but hasn't arrived yet.

I like that book as well as some of her others.

Who cares what a jazz musician is wearing offstage? I know I don't care about it at all. I don't have anywhere near all of Zorn's recorded output, but from what I have, his compositions do not sound the same at all. In fact, I am not aware of many jazz composers who have written music as varied as Zorn. He is however a poseur. 100 more compositions. Why he is a poseur? Please explain. That is a strong charge against an artist, and I am genuinely unaware of what Zorn may have done to deserve it. Translation: He just dropped 200 more versions of the same thing. Blue Train, you seem to intensely dislike John Zorn. Could you explain why? I truly don't understand what there is about him that would inspire such dislike. I agree with Hot Ptah's entire post.

Some of you guys have too much time on your hands.

No access to the original that I'm aware of. Your perspective from Tokyo might be different than mine from the southwest US. I thought Demian Bichir was really good.

I'd take my chances & go to a live concert.

Usual (IMO) worthless debate. Oh - & BTW it's Alec Baldwin. The new Jarrett CD is fine (also IMO).

Sorry - you'll have to translate 90% of that & English is my first language.

I don't hear the album that way at all. I believe it's better than that. Oh & BTW it's Claroscuro.

Walter Mosley: Little Green

Just watched the debut of The Bridge.

Yes, the third season is shaping up well too. I agree. I wonder if they're getting enough viewers to have a 4th season.

Major Crimes Not bad, although I miss Kyra Sedgwick.
