  1. That last minute score, oops you called time out thing is like something the Riders would do - who can forget the extra man snafu!
  2. I that wass Sweet Thunder and they were in Victoria too? Nice store, NOT cheap!
  3. I've had this year's Jubelale and thought it wasn't quite as good as it sometimes is (it varies a lot, year to year). Usually prefer Full Sail's Wassail or Pyrimid's Snow Cap, but not always (they vary too, but less so).
  4. Oops! shoulda put that last comment in the other thread, or not...'my world' v. 'the world' would affect the rest of the list to be sure, but Louis is still #1...
  5. Any list of Jazz Albums that Shook anything, really, that doesn't put the Armstrong Hot 5s & 7s (& w/Earl Hines, which is really a different thing even if the're all lumped together now), if it doesn't have that first, it's just WRONG!
  6. Now that I've been other-ly disgusting and killed the thread, back to the subject at hand. Lost sessions, by HH, the one that intrigues me is the one on BN that they released one cut ("Don't Even Go There", great title) on a sampler (Lost Sessions?) and dissed it by saying it was stiff and contrived and I'm all like 'yeah, but no more so than most jazz funk'....anyway, has any more that leaked out (officially or otherwise)?
  7. that is very funny!! I will have to pass this one along to him. I know he'll get a good laugh from it. glad you took it in a good way, hope he does too
  8. OK, this is weird - what exactly did they even think they was going for here?
  9. with his other flute in his other hand?
  10. Yes, with Booker he plays like he's got gilded cahones.
  11. Another weird synchronicity with me and that other sax player with a wife named Brenda, I too have an early mono copy of Dippin' (if I could have all my BN that way I would), and it is all that, interactivity-wise and all, but I still prefer Caddy For Daddy!
  12. And that's why they rocked, even when they didn't exactly, because they were, at heart, a bar band but a bar band with ambitions. Now most bar bands with ambitions didn't even get the chance to fail, they were lucky to get a bar to play in, but the Beatles got the chance to try for their ambitions, and they didn't fail to realize them. Now those ambitions may have had their limits, and misconceptions, and I think they came to see that themselves, but they got their shot and took it as far as they could. And yeah, Paul and Ringo, but the other thing I love on that Swedish radio thing is hearing John's voice without any filters, literal or metaphorical.
  13. I used to use the end of Part of the Search as the end of my radio show in College, thought I was being quite conceptual playing a record that sounded like a radio station signoff!
  14. http://www.downbeat.com/digitaledition/2013/DB201311/single_page_view/106.html no, tell us what you really think...
  15. Patton had interesting taste in'covers', so maybe that's the connection?
  16. And, it's a picture of an alto when Shaw (usuall, always?) played tenor...
  17. dgs, the league has fined Darian for that tweet. http://ca.sports.yahoo.com/blogs/cfl-55-yard-line/darian-durant-fined-inappropriate-tweet-fan-other-fans-204700151.html Without Sheets the Riders have lost four straight. I hope that they can get it together when he comes back. But if it had happened in a bar (I found the actual exchange online despite it having been deleted from DD's site) someone would likely be facing assault charges...I love how Rider fans are sticking up for Durant online.
  18. the CFL should just be happy that Twitter exchange with Durant happened online instead of in a bar!
  19. To paraphrase Fineas & Ferb re you beating a dead horse, 'Why yes, yes you are!'
  20. and The Yardbirds went to get a curry and dug what the sitar playing at the takeaway was putting down, and he was Nora's dad-to-be and...makes about as much sense as anything Crouch has to say. Chicken tika tock, free me from the tyranny of measured time!
  21. “These trains, real and symbolic, redefined the American landscape and the American place, each town or city’s identify at least partially the result of how close or how far it was from an important railroad stop. The trains, and the laying of the track, brought a steady influx of the Asian workers known everywhere as coolies, who may well have been linked to the American Indians through a bloodline broken by the Stone Age migration over the Bering Straight, from the Eskimos all the way down to those Darwin encountered off of Tierra Del Fuego. Those workers could only dimly have understood how their hard labor would help to connect the boundaries of the country with a brace of railroad steel; their presence would be felt decades later even in Kansas City, where Charlie Parker learned to love the Chinese food their descendants prepared.” OMFG! How did Stanley get out of high school writin' incoherent, empty, posturing drivel like that?! That this got published is truly a crime against nature, as in the unjustified killin' of trees...
  22. People in Sorrow, or is Chuck going to do that?
  23. "Life can never be exactly what you want it to be" I always thought that was unusual (but not inappropriate) sentiment for a love song.
  24. double barrells, doubled
