Wise advice from Paul. It has also happened to me: in fact I am now trying to avoid "collecting" (except for a few musicians, Ellington and Montoliu among them) and trying to focuse on "listening". Successfully, I hope.

Actually, and I know it's hard for someone unaccustomed to early recordings to hear this at first, but the ODJB Victor recordings are very well recorded given the technology of the time. Just compare them with any Paramount recording from six or seven years later...

Next Thursday I will attend Ornette Coleman Quartet´s performance at the Galapajazz (Galapagar, Madrid). Programación Festival Galapajazz http://www.harmolodic.com/ornette/frameset_now.html Has anybody seen them lately? Any impressions? Looks like this is a summer of "legends passing by" in Spain: Ornette Coleman & Herbie Hancock (Galapajazz), Sonny Rollins (Vitoria)...

Can anyone shed any light on this? I too was mystified, and we can't rely on ABC/ESPN to get to the bottom of anything. I wasn't impressed with Ruud's replacement. Van Basten said he didn't like Van Nistelrooij's performances in the group games. According to Van Basten his positioning left a lot to be desired, and his finishing was quite poor; he said that there was "not enough football" in Van Nistelrooij's game. Now look at that Kuyt he put instead! (as we say here, "he wouldn´t score a goal to a rainbow")

WTF has Van Basten done? Whatever happened between him and Van Nistelrooy, Ruud should have played!

I guess what they mean is that they´ve been "un-launched" because no new CDs have been released for a few months, and their website hasn´t been updated.

I´m worried ´bout that too!

... I´ve found this from an earlier issue (2002) of the DEMS Bulletin:

Geeeez, I really like what I hear in those audio excerpts!!!
