Wow, someone came out and said it! I quite liked "Could You Be The One" and bought "Warehouse" on the strength of it, but never got it. Same with Jesus and Mary Chain. I got it then but now I don't.

I'm a retired gastroenterologist. Maybe I could volunteer to do colonoscopies on reluctant passengers.

Let's hope not.

I know the artist who did the cover, Earl Linderman. I own 2 of his paintings. Bought the new Roscoe Mitchell & Michael Formanek ECM CDs.

Steve Stern: The Frozen Rabbi

I have the top 2 CDs in your post. They're very good.

Blowin' The Blues Away

Hopefully the price on Consecration will go down again soon.

My booklet number is 4291. Anyway someone needs to get this.

Has anyone ordered anything from the Interplay website? Is it a secure site? Thanks.

South Of The Border, West Of The Sun is good.

I have both of those too. Met him once. Nice, smart guy.

Nice phrase, that. Now 50% through Freedom. Still like it.

I've seen no reference to that. Maybe not. Right, from what I've read it was masters from the MCA side of things (Decca, Argo etc.) that perished, not former Polygram holdings like Verve. I was surprised when I once saw how much unissued Konitz Verve material there really is. Agree that it would be nice to see that released, although I don't count on it ever happening. If the Argos were destroyed that's probably where the Sandy Mosse & Cy Touff sides went.

Chase Baird Quintet

Rationality finally enters the discussion.

I have Annette (6118). It's a good one. The Braxton I want is Santa Cruz. Of course, I already have Willisau.

Tarbaby (Orrin Evans, Eric Revis, Nasheet Waits) + Oliver Lake. Great show!!

Great CD (IMHO).

I'm looking forward to April / May 2011!!

Haven't read his baseball fiction recently, but his Silas Ermineskin stories have held up for me. All good. I'm approx. 20% of the way through Franzen: Freedom. I like it so far.

I always make sure to watch Letterman when he has Darlene Love on every holiday season to sing Merry Christmas Baby!!

One of the greatest. Miss hearing new music from him.

Giants vs. Atlanta, game 2 4-4, bottom of the 9th

FWIW I'm a big fan of Haden's playing in all of the contexts you've mentioned.
