  1. I watched THE SEARCHERS. One thing for sure, a movie like this wouldn't have been made today...not PC is an understatement. Cinematography was beautiful, the Monument Valley setting was magnificent. The plot was good, some innuendos here and there, no major holes in the editing, script was good, I felt the empathy towards the protagonists. The historical setting of the settlers vs. the tribes is nothing new, and the gory violence on all sides was depicted honestly. One thing that constantly made me chuckle is that Wayne's character and his nephew were fighting the Comanches with just the Colt revolvers, while the Comanches had Winchesters. Other than that, a great film, thanks for recommending it. The Blue Ray transfer is excellent!
  2. Comrade Reynolds, the Winter Jazzfest patrons, performers and board of directors jointly condemn your doubts in the Resistance! You have until the night of January 9th, 2018 to publicly repent to the Winter Jazzfest Politburo.
  3. Robin Kenyatta - GIRL FROM MARTINIQUE US ECM pressing from 1973, promo. A very strong record, very confident playing by Kenyatta and the band. Is it on cd?
  4. Looks like the estate only gave them the permission to use Monk for name of their beer and his likeness on the bottle label, but the company is now milking Thelonious for other stuff, like apparel and chochkes. Naturally, the estate wants their piece of the action.
  5. This will narrow it down for you. http://hothousejazz.com/calender.php Don't waste your time on the National jazz museum in Harlem, if you were thinking of going. There isn't much there.
  6. While editing my stuff for sale, I can't remove spaces between the lines of text. How is that done? Thanks!
  7. I could never live in Florida year round. Too hot, and way too humid for me. Good luck to you!
  8. Respect!
  9. Chuck, if it were me, I would sell the whole massive classical collection as one lot on eBay. Just put a reasonable "buy it now" price, take 12 quality photos (that's the maximum allowed) of the spines of your cds, and the collection will sell quickly. You're in the business, so you know how to ship and pack. Just to give you a ball park idea - https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?item=252797927561&_from=R40&_sacat=0&LH_Complete=1&LH_Sold=1&_nkw=classical+cd+collection&_sop=3
  10. Keep 'em coming!
  11. I am speculating that the gun she used was not registered to her. New York City gun ownership laws are pretty brutal, and virtually noone can legally own a handgun, aside from the chosen few. If that's the case, she brought an illegal concealed deadly weapon to the scene. Plus, he was no threat to her, there was no struggle. Imho, that's murder. But I'm no lawyer.
  12. Does Berne still play with just socks on his feet, or has he graduated to clogs? I'm excited to be seeing Bill Charlap, peter and Kenny Washington this Saturday at the Vanguard. It's been 15 or more years since i heard him in a club.
  13. Is that a camo'ed helmet?
  14. I also just watched it on Netflix. Pretty good for all the reasons mentioned above.. They could've made the film a lot shorter by not using the endless snowy streets and cloudy skies footage. We all get it, he died on a snowy night, and the sky were gray. I am more than surprised that she only did, what, 3 or 4 years time for murder that was clearly premeditated.
  15. So I just reserved a BR of THE SEARCHERS at our local library. It's the most recommended Western in this thread so far.
  16. Just a couple of days ago finally watched Jim Jarmusch's DEAD MAN. What an unconventional movie! I really enjoyed it. How about Westerns as a genre? What are your favorites? I remember loving McKenna's Gold, when I was 11or 13 years old.
  17. Up with some new titles added!
  18. SOLD They told Icarus he couldn't fly.
  19. ONLY $59 post paid. Crazy low price...I know. Just pop the tape in your car deck, and wait for Art a nd Dizzy to take you away...from your wife.
  20. How about $49 post paid?
  21. I hear cassettes are making a come-back.
  22. Bette St.Claire - AT BASIN STREET EAST, Seeco CELP-456, Rec.1958 A surprisingly good set of music. Haven't heard this singer before. With George Du Vivier [spelling on cover]. Someone got it on Special for 84 cents.
  23. I've got that one also, will do a transfer for you if you need it still.
