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.

I plan to see it.

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.

In view of the above I'm glad I sold my vinyl copy years ago for some pretty good $$.

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.

Stefon Harris & Blackout tomorrow night. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Hope the "vocoder" is kept to a minimum.

I think it's a fair price too - especially since I paid $19.80 online (no tax or shipping). My copy has been sent.

Still one of my favorites. Lawyers, Guns & Money; Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner, etc., etc.

Strange title, never heard of the author, not very impressive cover. Therefore it far exceeded my expectations, & I endorse it highly. Compelling writing IMHO. I'm happy a friend suggested that I read it. There's already a sequel of sorts called The Gourmet. BTW, the UK cover is nicer. I don't know how much more I would pay for that, but between the two, that's the one I would opt for. I wouldn't pay more for the cover either, but that one sure is better. I purchased a fairly inexpensive paperback version via Amazon.
