THE RESOURCE

Wrote down. clem, you should do some record reviews for AMG instead of the narcissist Tom Jurek. I'd read 'em.

I love that disc. In fact I'll put it on my tubes right now.

Alec, I MUST gloat. Last week I found Schifrin's Dissection and Deconstruction... for $13. Sealed. Isn't this like a $100 cd? What's under wraps? I heard it's sort of luke-warm. I'll email you re:Lebanon paradise.

The other day I listened to Rick Rubin's interview on Fresh Air. Very interesting, very moving. I am only slightly familiar with Cash's music and even less with the country music as a genre. Should I just spring for the box or get a cd or two first, to test the waters?

Hey, ss1, thanks for posting the visual aid. I never noticed before, but who's the guy behind Duke's back, his head sticking out from atop the bar?

brownie, I think there was one Bley composition on it. Stratusphunk had another one.

Thanks, Bol!

Whats interesting about the individual Billie Holiday discs 1-4, they are not the same as from the 10-CD box set. I would assume that Columbia would release each individual disc 1-10, identical to the 10-CD set. Can you gentlemen shed some light on this series? Will they duplicate all the disks from the Columbia box?

I responded to all of you guys, thanks!

I won't be unique. Coltrane at the Vanguard. All shows.

It is known as the Boulevard of Death. Every year at least one or two people get killed crossing it. Many old folks live there.

That's refreshing. I see those records around town periodically.

That's a good price in today's economy! I've seen them go for $700+ on ebay in the days of yore. LP set I've seen for $900 once or twice. I'm saving my sealed set. It'll probably send my daughter through school in 17 years.

Anyone ?

I thought so too, until I bought one off ebay couple of years ago. It was expensive at $40 or so, but I ended up returning it for a refund because of the seller misrepresentation. Luckily for me it had a scratch that was audible and acknowledged by the seller. I thought the music was rather pedestrian and didn't make a copy. Maybe I should've just for reference. Perhaps you'll find it more interesting than I did. For $5 or $7 I'd keep it.

The beauty of the program is also that your collection will be stored in a database form, so you'll be able to export it as a whole or any album info to another computer running the Program; I suggest periodically backing it up on cd-rom. It can also serve as an insurance proof in case god forbid something happens to it. You can indicate the value of things you have. If you 're planning to do the massive cddb attack one day, try to run it on a pc at work, then export the database to your home machine. Laptop trays are much costlier to replace.

1. I did? I think we misunderstood each other. I always use cddb to load the info from the disk in a tray, but I never tried to do it in bulk, like you want. However, I don't know if that's impossible, so you may find an answer to this on the forum. The poit of using the cddb is that you don't have to enter the track titles and playing times manually. That's what it does for you and not much else. 2.Session dates. John, cddb wouldn't give you that info, but let's say you have 10 tracks on a cd and 5 were recorded on one date with one group, half on another date with a different group of musicians. Once you download the cddb track titles and times for it - In the TRACKS window double-click on one of the group of 5 tracks that you know were recorded on the same date with the same personel, enter info about recording dates, personel, etc, for that particular track, click on SAVE, then click on TEMPLATE, then click on FETCH, then ASSIGN, select the tracks you want to share that information and use previously manually-entered info as a template for the other 4 tracks. I know it sounds complicated, and it is. There's no other way of doing it to my knowledge. As I said before their forum is invaluable. It will take you a good while to learn how to use the program properly, and it's very time-consuming, but that's the way it is. Unless you have a secretary or someone who has the time to do it for you, be prepared to spend a good chunk of time with it. That's the [huge] downside. Once you master the program, the possibilities for cross-referencing will be almost infinite.

I am also a big fan. However, as opposed to those who don't like his Indo-Jazz Fusions and Indo-Jazz Suite, I am very fond of those LPs. It's a nice minority to be in. Have the two Redial cds as well. The original LPs constantly fetch big bucks on Ebay. Re:the Southern Horizons LP. Haven't played that one in a while. I remember liking one side of it much better than the other. Was it ever released on cd? Coincidentally, I recently bought Vandermark's Harriott Project promo poster. I think I'll cut off the bottom part and frame the picture. I didn't care much for that tribute anyway, but the photo is nice and big. .
