Interesting. I'm sorry to hear that Kenny Clarke didn't think that the MJQ was "jazz" & that Milt Jackson "hated" John Lewis.

My kids bought me one. I gave it to my wife. She loads (is that the right word?) everything. When I want to hear something she "finds" it for me. Pretty good deal.

Coltrane: Side Steps

How are his novels? I have a copy of "The Yiddish Policemen's Union" but haven't read it yet. A friend also recommended "The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay" to me recently. They're both well worth your time. As I recall, Kavalier & Clay won the Pulitzer. Just started Barbara Kingsolver: Lacuna

Had it on our DVR. Watched it last night, & agree it was great.

Excellent set.

My thought too.

That's the REAL cover. The other one with a photo of a guy with a trumpet is a jive-ass second-rate replacement. I actually agree with that.

I only have the Moscow (2008) CD which is very good.

Vijay Iyer Trio: Historicity

The Sound I Saw is a great book. He also collaborated with Langston Hughes on The Sweet Flypaper Of Life.

I see a reference to Disconforme in association with these at CD Universe. Comments???

Claudia Acuna

I like 'em.

David Ebershoff: The 19th Wife

Ear X-Tacy I may have the incorrect spelling, but it's something like that.

Perla Batalla

Rolldown: Varmint

I usually like his playing. The Venus CDs are nice - both his leader dates & the One For All CDs.

That's a great DVD.

Excellent show. The "dreaded" vocoder was only used once.

Junot Diaz: Drown

Among others Pee Wee Russell, Hampton Hawes, Art Pepper.

No prize fight here. The writing was great.

So would I. Excellent music.
