Was it Zoot who said "you could not play like Lester, but then you'd be wrong!"?

You aim too, please.

generally I am most definitely not a fan, for reasons that have been hashed and rehashed here, but I do kinda like the everything and the kitchen sink medley that is "how Many More Time", after all if you're going to be over the top might as well go all the way...

There are still used stores on Hawthorne, but there has been some turnover...this is just another example of why Studebaker diversified their way out of the car business, instead of going to the wall and losing evrything.

You must mean Music Millennium at E Burnside & 32nd and yes it's stil there...the Indian place is a few blocks away at 29th. I met my wife while we were working at MM's other branch, which is now closed.

I'm reminded of a Molson's add re Canada: 2 seasons, winter & July. And it was there, in saskatoon to be exact, that I saw/heard my favorite performance of the Vivaldi piece in question, at noon in, high school, by S'toon's own brilliant Mozart Group (fromerly Mozart and the Wolf Gang), complete with a harmonica solo.

You know, they can put Madonna in the R 'n R hall of Fame - my only real prob with that is it makes me feel old. But now the've gone and done it - the're gonna put Little Walter (Jacobs) in BUT ONLY AS A SIDEMAN! WHAT'S THE MATTER THEY DIDN'T LIKE HIS RECORDS AS A LEADER?

The Djangos at SW 11th & Stark in Portland has been closed for some time, it had been going downhill ever since Bob D. sold it, if not before...

offers?

I own some Last Exit (for Sonny Sharrock) and Low (garage sale cheapie) and like what I've heard on tarogato since it's less relentless/monochromatic than his sax work. I like the fact that he plays bass sax more than the actual playing...

dave9199- You are aware that there is a boot that collects My generation and all the related singles and EP cuts (plus Great Shakes and US Air Force commercials) on one cd IN MONO? I have a theory that all great originals are/were great interpretors first. The Who stretch that to the breaking point, they really weren't that great an R&B covers band, it brings out the worst sort of tough guy posturing in daltry. And then there's the surf thing. To really make a strong argument for them as interpretors you have to include 'in the style of' originals like "Magic Bus" (Bo Diddley), "Long Live Rock" (Chuck Berry). Should've quit after Moon died; I think if Pete had read the credits to Rod's albums more carefully they might've gotten Micky Waller instead of Kenny Jones, and been better off. I don't think the early Small Faces are 'better' than the early Who, the writting is much weaker ("E TOO D"), but it is nice to have more in that style, any other Mod bands I should check out from back in the day? Love the Kinks, Arthur & "Last of the Steam Powered Trains" being fav's, but they too could be iffy as a covers band (yes I realize I'm using the term in exactly the loose/sloppy way I railed against on this board), their rendition of "Got Love If You Want It" is beyond lame but the live "Milk Cow Blues"/"Batman"/"So Tired" medley is brilliant in a surreal pop art sort of way. I once knew a Kinks fan who claimed to have been born in Muswell Hill...

I've always found madeline's pho lady day-isms to be a grotesque affectation.

I own all the BN Turrentines, save Dearly Beloved which I don't think I've actually seen for sale anywhere. I think that says how much I like Stan. Much like Grant Green all he needs is a good melody to sound great. Love the way he plays Gershwin, and Jobim, and Bacharach...the stuff on Impulse and Atlantic under Shirley's name is pretty great too. "Think", baby!

He was also a noted collctor/restorer of Studebakers.

My compare and contrast article on vthis set and Miles Complete Corner got published in the Music Millennium email newsletter and I can email it to anyone who's interested (it's too long and I don't feel like figuring out how to post it), and yes I know it's at least one rewrite and a lot of editting away from being done. Me, I don't listen to a lot of gospel, even though I do listen to a lot of gospel influenced pop music of various sorts, for reason musical and extra- ....danasgoodstuff@yahoo.com

I have a nice reel to reel for sale for $350 plus shipping method of your vchoice comes with various accessories and a bunch of tapes.

Gig didn't happen due to some sort of internal meltdown in Smegma (now there's a lovely image!). Members I talked to expressed an interest in playing together in some informal future configuration. My career sabatoged by 'creative differences', does that make me a 'real musician' now?

I'll probably just stick to the usual, Studebakers, Scotland, and strippers...

If the're reforming does that mean the'll stopp ripping people off and play with some sublety for a change?

Dude! I've played the Towne Lounge, see you there.

I agree with those who say Get Up With It; "He Loved Him Madly" is as good as any thing Miles (and Teo) ever did...

"I got time for one more of Hank's tunes and a M-F to go"

I'm playing at my alma mater, Reed College with my friends in Portland's longrunning 'noise band'...don't blame me I didn't name the band, we're on first at 8pm sharp for a short set and I can't guarantee you'll be able to hear me, I often can't hear myself, much less that I'll play anything interesting since I have no idea what we're playing, but still you won't hear a middle aged Studebaker driving kinda guy play C-melody in this context evryday, and I think it's open to the public, but I could be wrong since I've seen two different rooms at Redd listed on the web, think I better go practise my squeaks and squonks...and scales, just in case.

What edits or takes are on the 2-disc version of BB that's not on the 4 CD box? I have both now and am contemplating selling my 2 disc version. Or am I misreading something? other way round, if you get the BF & BB 2cd sets you miss some of what's on the 4cd BB box, but get the master mix of "Go Ahead John" on BF...clear?

I just sent off a dual review of this and the On the Corner box, If any of you can stand to read any more I'll post a link if it gets published (is that still the right word for things which only appear online?)
