  1. JAZZ ON A SUMMER'S DAY is spoken for. Monk dvd is still here.
  2. Noone is interested? They're still here.
  3. Elvin Jones has an autobiography coming up on Da Capo Press. Title is a *Different Drummer* . Can't wait till it comes out.
  4. Alan King had chutzpah. I don't know, maybe it's me, but I don't find most young stand up comics remotely funny. These old guys, they knew how to do it.
  5. $100 is the top price for this record in M- condition. $120 max. Why would anyone pay this kind of coin?! it's just stupid.
  6. Hans? Reinier? I found the obi. If you want it, send me your address.
  7. That's right! We're taking our s@#t back to America!
  8. Looks like one of those meth labs they bust on every episode of Cops.
  9. I will provide some hopefully interesting photographs.
  10. That price is f@#$ing insane. It should go for maybe $100...150 mint-
  11. I've read about this a few times, but I just have one question - Have any of his old boyfriends ever step out for an interview? If not, is it prudent to take it for a fact?
  12. Sometimes it's tough to tell, but I think I hear digital in some live recordings at least. I have maybe 100, maybe more of BS/SN, just curious if it makes sense getting lps over cds or vice versa in some cases.
  13. First of all I must say that brother Claypone made a good choice with the Sennheisers he got. They're strictly for home use, imo, and need some good juice to power them up, but when it happens they once again spell out that Senn. is tough to beat in value. A month or so ago I got much louded Etymotics ER•4P headphoes [can't call them cans, because they go inside the ears]. Here are my impressions, after giving them a fair run with my walkman. Pros- *Amazing sound reproduction. It was the clincher for me. *Can be easily converted into the ER•4S with a simple extension cord[ER•4P produce 10 dB greater output at high frequencies and 13 dB greater output at low frequencies. The higher sensitivity and enhanced bass make them desirable for portable use, which is what I was after. ER•4S are preferred for the hi-fi listening.] *Very sturdy build for its size, but time will tell. *Extra goodies. Cons- *Microphonic effect. In other words, the wire rubbing against clothing when I walk/bike transmits the noise to my ears. It can be eliminated to a large extent by attaching the wire to the supplied clip and then clipping it to the shirt. *Price - around $230. Steep, but these are the best h-phones I've stuck in my ears so far. *Unavailability in brick-and-mortar stores for a trial listen. Bought them sight unseen from a retailer that offered 1-month return no frills. *Sennheisers were more comfortable. Remember, the ER•4P go into your ears direct. You might want to have your MD flush your ears. It's a good idea anyhow to do it yearly. *Warranty could be 3 years istead of one. I've decided to keep them, mainly because they sound very very good, despite all the little Cons they have one huge Pro - the sound is amazing even with my shitty portable. I can only imagine what a good headphone amp can do for these babies.
  14. You should see the high-end stuff they make for the internal market in Japan! Pick up a Japanese hi-fi magazine or the Swing Journal, they almost always advertise in it. ... I'll post my impression of the Etymotics later tonight.
  15. They've been releasing cds and lps of the corresponding material since the mid-80s, but I have no idea when they started recording straight to digital. Are their Lps from say, last 20 years, digitally mastered? Has anyone compared the sound reproduction quality of their LPs vs. CDs?
  16. Wanna bet on this one? Lesmake it double of what you owe right now or nothing. He he.
  17. Hey, Jim, how is Feech LaManna doing? Any word on him coming back?
  18. What are the odds? I bought it from an Englishman.
  19. I just got this on Saturday. It appears to be quite oop, both cd and vinyl, so I guess I lucked out, because this is a wonderful date. Played under a spiritual guidance of Ornette Coleman [spirit non-credited, but it's possessor acknowledged in a 12 minute long Ornate].
