  1. I dare jump in here but I thought I saw it there too.
  2. I ordered the Derek Trucks live album via that site. It arrived promptly.
  3. I, too dig his recent Lee Townsend-produced efforts, and I like the Naked City stuff, but this was just not happenin'. Drummer seemed wooden, and it lacked any kind of glue. I kept waiting for something to happen. I did like hearing him get with that nasty tone again, but otherwise a less than enjoyable outing for me.
  4. But unfortunately there is a downside. Come the cold weather, we're left shaking like sh*t*ing dogs. Tony: 147lbs for the last 15 years, whether I ride my bike or not. Same here. 6'3" and 175 lbs. I eat about six times each day. Been that way since I got out of college. Everyone in the kitchen at work is always saying "you are sooo lucky." Lucky to need food every three hours? Or lucky to find pants with a long enough inseam and small waist?
  5. I am pretty sure that there is at least some extra material on that, as there are some unlisted tracks on the Revenant CD issue. I have seen those Revenant LP issues. Wonderful heavy fabulous things. Did you see them at Let It Be in downtown Mpls?
  6. Fela "Anikulapo" Kuti James Brown
  7. and who is this dude, he looks too cool! B-) I thought it was a balding Kawabata Makoto [Acid Mothers Temple].
  8. Hey it happens to the best of 'em.
  9. You can consider me a small but demanding public for that CD.
  10. PM sent re: Cuozzo!
  11. I'll sign that one.
  12. Its like a "sudden death" version of the old Jazz Trading Post!
  13. Does that Windows XP firewall protect as well as the aftermarket programs? My McAfee firewall update subscription has just expired and I am considering a renewal. However, if XP will do a good enough job, I can spend the $40 on CDs. What do you think?
  14. The local record store gets a lot of these--I wonder if they do wholesale. I have picked up a few of the BN albums, and some of the Ornette Coleman and Mingus titles.

    Yeah, they had that off-time Miles show up forever. *Looks gift horse in the mouth*
  16. I wish we had a bigger icon for this. McCoy's late 60s BN albums are among my favorites of the label and the genre. I haven't heard any of Cosmos. Kinda wish the big-box treatment was coming this way, but what do you do?
  17. I finally got my mitts on this album. I did the iTunes thing, and downloaded it. Love it! It is on the MP3 player and I burned a disc for car use. Love it!
  18. Five years ago I bought a Hubbard 'Goin' Up' mono W. 63rd that had been part of a sealed collection until the owners demise.....and it has a medium dish warp. The 'Open Sesame' from the same collection didn't. Difficult to say with absolute certainty but it's my understanding that it's okay to leave shrink on as long as you slit the openeing. Was it the disc or the jacket? ...or both? When I ran the jazz archives at KU, a number of the early BN LP jackets bowed in toward the front. It seems the laminant likes to shrink over time because I noticed this same situation among records from different donors and always in the same direction. I should add that they were otherwise in great shape. My guess is that they could have been in tighter quarters on whatever shelves they were on before they made it to the Archives. But that's just a guess.... They may have been even more suceptible with the extra heavy gauge stock and shiny laminates. I have had the same experience.
  19. Edit my graphic to remove price. Sorry!
  20. Looks like a bit of a blip in the database...
  21. How many sides does that box have?
  22. I have a bunch, but they were all in the .NTP Fellows Media Face format for ease of printing. I haven't installed it on this new box yet. Does anyone use that? I had the version from 1999 and it no longer worked with the labels they were manufacturing. Great looking items, deus62!
  23. What would then cause the warping?? Almost everywhere I've ever bought records have carefully stored them on their edges, in their paper sleeves, inside their original covers. Of course, more unconventional sources are more chancy, though dirt and scratches seem to be more of a problem than is warping. I was, however, witness to a supreme warping of a treasured Little Richard LP, lent to my brother and subsequently left in the back window of his '56 Ford in summer heat. It looked like one of those wavy-edged seashells that one sometimes sees. I've seen storage in the shrinkwrap cause warping of covers if the item was exposed to a damp environment for some time. It did not have any great effect on the wax, but I can't imagine it did any good.
  24. I know ... that's the only occasion when Miles recorded on a "left-handed" trumpet. I had two copies of the original vinyl of this. Sold one for a hand-held calculator about a year ago. Isn't his jacket circa 1970 or so, too?
