It puts a smile on my face, but I don't reach for it much. I like it, but it's not the type of album that's going to offer anything new after repeated listenings.

Don't like the misleading title. There's just as much music from Get Up With It. This may confuse reviewers.

The commentary by John Carpenter and Kurt Russell on Big Trouble in Little China is funnier than the movie itself. Sounds like they downed a few. They are also highly entertaining and informative on The Thing. The Phantasm commentary by actors and director is also very good.

I think that's the inside pic inside the Dortmund 1976 CD on Hat Art. That's a contrabass sax. Braxton's contrabass clarinet is shaped llike a paper clip and can be easily held.

Speaking of lyrics, when Jon Anderson sang "Fear destroys" on "Gates of Delirium," I thought he was singing "Beer destroys." Alas, it turns out it was not a shot at Wakeman...

Amazon.ca has become useless. Hardly anything is in stock and prices are a ripoff.

Yessongs was (and remains) a huge favourite of mine. Wish it would get a decent reissue. Since the mid-1970s, the band's massive egos and out for a buck mentality have been a big turnoff.

I was just reading about him a couple of weeks ago. Sounds like it was an intriguing band.

Not my favourite decade. "This Corrosion" by The Sisters of Mercy, or maybe "Dominion/Mother Russia." "Siege of Power" by Napalm Death "Comp. 105 A" by Anthony Braxton

Cut out sugar and cut back on bread. Don't eat white bread. Drink lots of water. Cut out pop. Fish is good, but if you don't like it, try and have more protein than carbs. Have brown rice instead of white rice. Eating white bread and white rice is liking eating a bowl of sugar.

Thanks for posting. That was a fun listen.

That's a classic. One of my favourites.

What happened? Did they play "Toad"?

I saw them in concert last month. Excellent stuff. I hadn't heard of Harrison Bankhead before and I was really impressed with what he brought to the music.

Just showed this to a colleague who has seen some Ryan Adams blow-ups in his time and he couldn't believe it!

If you showed up hoping for a hissy fit, you definitely got your money’s worth that night. A high-strung guy, for sure, and I can see how distractions would piss him off, but he went way too far there. It’s weird seeing the leader of a standards piano trio acting like John Lydon (aka Rotten). If I were in the audience, I would have started yelling requests for “Free Bird.”

Ben Cahoon (!) kicks the winner for Montreal. Lions only handed the ball off to Joe Smith nine times. They were 2nd and 5 at the 'Riders 6 and Jackson threw two straight incompletee passes (to be fair, there was uncalled blatant pass interference on the latter). Given two chances, you go to think Joe Smith would have made it to the end zone.

The Jimmy Giuffre, because it's the only one of the big sets I own.

Last week was the week the Lions would lose one. They get 254 yards. The Stamps get 525 yards. Yet the Lions won. I would like Saskatchewan's chances on Thursday. They didn't look good in the earlier game and will want to avenge that loss. Plus, B.C. is pretty beat up. However, I wouldn't rule the Lions out. Should be a good game. Interestingly, Jarious Jackson has been more inclined to throw long passes down the field than either Pierce or Dickenson.

I highly recommend this album. Some beautiful arrangements on it.

Jarious Jackson will start for the Lions against Saskatchewan on Thursday. Buck Pierce will back up. The Lions have a lot of injuries in their secondary.

The just arrived Big John Patton Mosaic Select and Woody's Winners.

A word for bassist Motoharu Yoshizawa. Great player. His early '70s stuff with Kaoru Abe makes for great blindfold test stumpers.

It was on Black Lion. Not sure if it's still available. Don't get too excited. Not a great date, but it has some nice bits.

Not that I'm aware of. Ayler's one album of spirituals, Goin' Home aka Swing Low, Sweet Chariot contains: Tracks 1. Goin` Home (4:26) 2. Ol’ Man River (take 2) (5:25) 3. Down By The Riverside (take 6) (4:39) 4. Swing Low, Sweet Chariot (take 3) (4:30) 5. Deep River (4:15) 6. When The Saints Go Marchin’ In (4:12) 7. Nobody Knows The Trouble I’ve Seen (4:44) 8. Ol’ Man River (take 1) (3:58) 9. Swing Low, Sweet Chariot (take 1) (4:49) 10. Down By The Riverside (take 5) (4:28)
