Yeah, the Hat group seems to currently have whatever inside track there is to be had on the Revelation catalog, having also reissued Warne's NE PLUS ULTRA. I know Ne Plus Ultra was supposed to be reissued on Hat, but did it actually happen yet?

I saw him a few months ago playing acoustic piano with Frank Morgan in Albuquerque. He played well & seemed energetic.

They didn't tell me that last week... I gather this is some sort of "promo". Go to http://www.polishjazz.com/2005

Great Masters Of Mexican Folk Art

I'm talking about the 2 on Okka. Didn't know there was a 3rd.

Mine is on the way. Excellent communication with the people running the website. They're throwing in a 2 CD compilation of Polish jazz artists as a free bonus.

The 2nd Triage CD (Okka Disk 12052) was Tom Hull's "pick hit" in his recent consumer guide in The Village Voice. I know that's not what this thread was about but couldn't resist follow-up to the preceding post.

Great CD. Glad I have it.

That's a different (IMHO better) CD.

Depends on what you're using it for. I can't choose.

Is that Back In New York the same as the new one on Concord in the US??

I have Vol. 1,2 &3. I'll eventually get the other 2 volumes. Excellent music.

The Barnes & Noble site now says that new copies are not available. Amazon lists it as shipping in 1-3 weeks at the same price ($45 US) as on the publishers (Parkside) site. Booksamillion doesn't list it at all. Will watch & wait but if no one discounts it, I'll eventually get it from the publisher.

I agree with Lon. Eventually you'll want both nights.

Finally something to get on Concord. It's been a while for me.

I take an antioxidant / mineral supplement combination called LifePak twice a day. Also a few other targeted items.

I admit I'm tempted.

Maximum City (Bombay Lost & Found) by Suketu Mehta

Sam's still out there "touring" at his age. Looking forward to seeing him in Albuquerque in May in a trio context.

$2.35 per gallon for regular unleaded here in Santa Fe. If I'm going to Albuquerque (e.g. to see Cecil Taylor on Saturday), I stop at Santa Domingo pueblo where it's usually 20 cents a gallon less because they're exempt from certain taxes.

Kite Runner

If you haven't heard Dominick Farinacci yet you should. The Venus CDs are all "reissues" of recent releases in a different format - ?paper sleeves, ?hybrids (I'm not sure). They're available in jewel cases with the same music for a lot less.

Nope - not me.

Thanks guys. I didn't know you cared.

I'm just interested to see if you get it at all. I've never heard of this vendor.
