The Magnificent Goldberg

Oho! I is suffering. How do I get out of this without moving or breathing? MG

popup boxes? I don't see anything unusual on the two thread pages you linked. There are ads at the bottom of every page, but that's got nothing to do with Youtube, and it's not what mjzee was talking about. In the first thread I referenced (the stamps thread), in Bright Moments' fist post, the word 'start' is a link. If you hover over it, an ad pops up. MG

Yeah - but I've passed through the lounge when 'Sidewinder' has been playing on a gardening programme. And 'Back at the Chicken Shack' by JOS. Bet you'd get good plants with a selection of Prestige soul jazz material, particularly Gator Tail MG

Been through about 40 pages of those. No Fred Jackson. I'm shocked! MG

The Gambia's 3 dalasis stamps have one of Dinah Washington, with others MG

Another from Mali 400F MG Mali, Burkina Faso, Benin, Togo so far. Bet there's no South African stamps with black jazz musicians on them MG One from Buryat (a Russian independent state) MG Chad has Tina Turner (unfortunately with Mel Gibson) MG

Also BG which is part of a series I don't recognise the top two in this Dominican issue Mali are going for less popular figures - Roy Eldridge and Bill Coleman Another 32c job MG

These popup boxes seem to happening on thread that DON'T have youTube videos posted. Like here and Pain in the arse! But do you get any money out of it, Jim? Happy to tolerate it, if you do. MG

You have posted a number of World Record Club releases MG, were you ever a member? No, I got a few in beautiful nick on Tuesday in Cardiff's main 2nd hand shop. So, I'm playing them... MG

Ben Webster and associates - Verve (World Record Club UK) MG

Lionel Hampton - Hampton hits - Verve (World Record Club) Sonny Stitt - Sonny's Bubba sessions - WHo's Who (Kingdom Jazz UK) MG

Did you redesign the Grace Jones sleeve? MG

My copy's different - MG

Still the same world. MG

One of the greatest songs ever. MG

'Trip on the strip' isn't an extraordinary record, but it's likeable. (I've contemplated putting a track in a BFT several times, but it's never made it.) 'Musart' IS an extraordinary album. It's my favourite of Braith's '60s albums. But it's kind of gentle and low key, no fireworks. But, over the years, it's lasted for me. MG

I met Ben Webster there in '70. My friend, who, more polite than I, stood back, bought me a beer later saying, 'Ben Fuckin' Webster! You talked to Ben Fuckin' Webster!' Good shop. Spent lots of dosh there on forays up from Brighton in the mid '60s to early '70s. Prestige soul jazz LPs were CHEAP and viewed contemptuously, I'm glad to say. MG

Jimmy Dawkins - Fastfingers - Delmark RIP Jimmy. MG

I think Dawkins has been my favourite Chicago bluesman since I first heard him. Unlike most, he has a strong tendency to solo on the guitar's bottom E string; it's very dramatic. And his spelling gives Chewy a run for his money RIP Jimmy, and thanks. MG

Wednesday - and Duke Ellington's 'Sentimental lady' was #1 on the R&B charts that week MG

Download for me, please Jeff. MG
