I see the Bob Dylan SACD 16 disc set is on there for $95 with no shipping at yourmusic.com! It just sold on eBay for $178!

Literally, truckloads. That is quite a price tag.

And Miles, too?

Really, tho, glad to see "The Yodel" get its props here.

What? No "Happy Organ" by Dave "Baby" Cortez?

Sent PM on the Tal Farlow "Tal" disc.

Is that the material that was on One for One?

You get Rene Thomas and Eddy Louiss.

I love somethingawful.com. Check Out their Fashion SWAT feature.

This is sad. He was one of my favorite players in the whole Law & Order series. And to think my copy of his "Off Broadway" disc arrived from BMG last week. RIP, Lennie.

Also with Rotundi & Alexander. Live, and a PARTY!

I have the Hans Kennel CD with the group Mytha on hatART. All alphorns.

I once heard that Tea rarely played past the bell of his instrument, staying more in th upper range. Is that so?

That's the same as the Bethlehem (or Urania) cd Lon mentions. Excellent. I did not know that. GREAT side!

Hmmm... they seem less than impressed. I like a lot of OFN, but have to disagree w/them on this one. Seems like they obsess more about the package than the music.

Plus, they have Jerry Orbach's lone solo album for $1.99! I ordered mine this week. Yes, the same Jerry Orbach many have come to know as Lennie Briscoe on "Law & Order."

I dunno, but after the redesign, my vist frequency went from several times a day to twice per month. Hate it.

I gotta give it up for this one, too.

I couldn't find this on the site. What is it under? I searched for both COltrane and Soultrane, and oly found what appears to be the OJC.

Might I recommend this Kenny Burrell title? Elvin Jones, Cecil Payne. Nice & cool. How are the other OJC Burrell's?

I tried it when I was in Portland last month because there is a distillery right in town. Clear Creek is the name, if I recall. It was a bit too astringent for my taste. More of a scotch or bourbon palate, here.

I loved Pantera in high school as well. I was bummed to hear this this morning.

Does the notion of tracking hits on a website have any significance here? If we all read an article in the Politics forum, the site that it was originally posted upon does not get the dozen or two hits that it would if there were a link to the story instead. Multiply that by the number of boards on the "internets" then you have a larger number. If that website judges readership by hits, then that is a problem. If no one is going there with the exception of the first reader, then the organization might think that no one is reading and then charge advertisers less. That is if they don't trim staffs, or, worse yet, shut down altogether due to low traffic.

man, save yourself the trouble, join www.yourmusic.com, get anything in the entire BMG catalog for $5.99 per disc, never any S & H. You can get all those Dylan SACDs for that price, any time. Holy Crap! Where have I been!

I have spent some time listening to the music of Iranian composer/violinist/'ud player Simon Shaheen. I have only two of his albums right now: The most recent, which is one of the East-West-styled collaborations with his band Qantara, and the other is his performances of the music of Mohamed Abdul Wahab. A couple of years ago I had the opportunity to see Shaheen and Qantara as part of a local series put on by a museum. It was a great year that year, as they had The ICP Orchestra, and Charms of the Night Sky group with Dave Douglas as well. Shaheen was superb, and his band was fantastic as well. The wife and I were able to sit front and center. Two things stuck out fo rme at this show. First was percussionist Jamey Haddad. He plaeyd frame drums for most of the concert, and his mastery wsa something to behold. Second, was the story he told about tuning the 'ud. He spoke of how difficult it is to maintain tuning, and he retuned a bit after each performance. Once at a concert, he was having a harder time finding the right tuning, and he kept playing around and tuning and palying around and when he was finished and ready to start the piece, the audience applauded, thinking it was a piece or improvisation.
