  1. Louie Louie is still the biggest hit recorded here in Portland, OR
  2. I don't know man, it just goes by so fast...
  3. I think the notes to this are some of the best writing (and photos) about Bud, vbetter IMHO than any of the stand alone books.
  4. This is a bargain, and great music. Everybody knows the early stuff is great, but I think the later BNs are very underrated - he's not failing to do what he did before, he's doing something different and, dare I say, deeper on compositions like "Glass Enclosure".
  5. ...and "Made in Canada" where they know about such things!
  6. The news is not yet up on the ESP website that I could see - sadly typical. But still, stuff got recorded that otherwise might very well have not been, so a huge thanks for that.
  7. Maybe the Who's Odorono was a jab at Adorno, makes about as much sense as any of the above.
  8. Continue blues of truth - missed this one first time I read the list, may be my favorites transliteration, yes who would want the blues of truth to continue on in its lonely quest...
  9. and the're also different from reissues - car guy analogy here, three different things: used parts (reissues), new old stock (archival) and newly made parts (new release). so do new or old performance /after market parts = remixes, or have I just confused things to no end?
  10. and, apparently, everyone in the Yardbirds as well - I think I used to own 3 or 4 different recording of it by them, no wait that was "I Wish You Would", now th're both in mine!
  11. That's certainly my experience, from the customer service side.
  12. Beauty is a Rare Thing lives up to its name, and sounds about as good as any jazz recorded for Atlantic in that era is ever gonna sound and the organization works for me. I too have a high tolerance for iffy sound quality in the right circumstances - Ole Tune Gee didn't do it for me but Temple U did and as a point of comparison I think Magic Sam @ the Alex Club, Howlin' Wolf @ Cambridge and Clifford Brown The Beginning & the End are some of the most valuable documents of amazing music out there. Some music cuts through bad sound better than others - not sure I can articulate why, there are things that don't work for me due to bad sound, I've heard a lot of boots 'n broadcasts and it's always a balancing act but the tippin' point is not very predictable, YMMV, etc.
  13. I have the Jap version of the session with Warne. It is indeed great (except for the stupid but typical early stereo mix); but I think I can live without the new alternates, but I would like to get the studio stuff from the lost years even if I don't expect to love it.
  14. kind of a strange effect with the shadow of the score across his face, but not physically impossible so I'm not sure if that's 'surreal' or not...but it is lovely music!
  15. Man, that strikes me as wildly optimistic. Playing in the background at shops and restaurants counts as meaningful exposure? I'd be willing to bet in most places, if you asked people when they left if they remembered if there even WAS music playing in the background they'd likely not remember. When I worked in records shops (various shops and times in the '90s), 'I heard this in a coffee shop' was a big source of inquiries - also a hard one because even if they asked for info on the recording it often got messed up somehow...
  16. UCCI-9287 Love-in-Ass All Pharoah Sanders No comment!
  17. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfollv1111I seveeral more from Buddy as well, IIRC
  18. My memory is that in the 70s Lagers and Pilsners were the biggest sellers but that Ales like Molson's Export and Labatts '50' were significant sellers. Molsons and Labatts both made Stouts as well, but they were not big sellers. In Saskatchewan, all of this would apply to bottle sales only, as we had 'pool' draft ( a unique Sask thing, I believe). I think ales may have outsold Lagers and Pilsners further east in Canadia.
  19. the first side of this with diz, bud and Roy Haynes, including Round Midnight and my fav version of Night in Tunesia
  20. In my youth, there were many older houses in Saskatoon which had kitchen drawer handles which functioned quite well as beer bottle openers.
  21. ...and Hey There +10 is mostly Babes Blues (minus the tune "Babes Blues"), but it does have the previously unissued Billy Boy and I don't have Hey There itself, so...maybe I'll get it.
