Sonny Stitt Disc 2

Sarah Vaughan Disc 5 'Sarah Sings Soulfully' and 'The Joe Reisman Singles Sessions'

You may just push me into ordering this Bad Boy when it goes into "running low" status. Sonny Stitt Disc One, with Johnny Richards Orch. and Quincy Jones Orch. followed by Sarah Vaughan Disc 4 'After Hours' & 'Sarah+2'.

Chaloff Disc 2

The Complete Serge Chaloff Sessions Disc 1

Hal McKusick Quartet (Bethlehem) also available on Fresh Sound Triple Exposure (OJC ) Now's The Time 1957-58 (Decca-MCA). The OJC is probably the easiest to find.

That's a question for your ears to answer. i can't tell any difference. then why are you wasting your money? better to buy new music by new artists, or at least recordings by artists you don't already own. that's what i'm doing. My thoughts exactly. Keep the older ones, avoid the remasters. Keep them. This 'which is better ?' debate has been going on for years but to me the BN Works TOCJ series is unsurpassed.

Gerald Wilson Disc 2 followed by Lou Donaldson Disc 3.

George Lazenby ?? Surely you jest fellow posters. I recently rewatched On Her Majesty's Secret Service after reading that it has been highly re-evalulated in certain critical circles. Needless to say my negative opinion hasn't mellowed with the passage of time. As much as I find Roger Moore wryly amusing, he was, literally, a joke as JB.

This one's good

The Complete Roost Johnny Smith Small Group Sessions Disc 6

Without wanting to prejudge Daniel Craig he will have his work cut out to replace Pierce Brosnan who was undoubtedly the only Bond to stand alongside Sean Connery. Brosnan was James Bond.

Perhaps you mean 'Desmonds'( see link) http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0133299/ Humour is purely subjective.I remember being round at my brothers and sitting, arms folded and stone faced as they chuckled and guffawed through ' Friends', which I had no opinion on at all, it didn't merit one. I haven't seen the American version of 'The Office', but I might check it out after your comment.

I've always been a collector. I started off with matchbox labels and book matches,cigarette packets, magazines, especially Eagle,45's, lps, cassettes,cds, Betamax tapes, VHS tapes, Super VHS tapes and DVDs. I knew I was odd when my dad took me to a football game and I spent the time happily collecting used matchsticks. That was the end of my dad's efforts to introduce me to manly pursuits like football.

3C. cold, overcast, drizzly, miserable.

Sorry guys but I don't understand how you can consider 'The Office' worthy of comparison to 'Fawlty Towers'. I'm probably in a minority but 'The Office' left me cold. I'm a 60 year old Brit so have lived through some of the golden ages of British humour but 'The Office' is just not funny imo. To me it's a classic case of 'the emperor's new clothes'.
