king ubu

Mike, the package arrived, just picked it out of the mailbox! Thanks so much for delivery and the bonus stuff! And thanks to Jim for the BFT discs!

I hope the bonusses didn't make the suspicious ... Do Swiss customs ask for a declaration badget on letters? I know they do on parcels, but letters? ← If you mean padded bags: yes! Not that I ever heard of such a letter having been returned, though, because of a missing declaration badget... maybe the opened it and thus it takes longer? Who knows! I hope it's in tomorrow's mail! And now you get me all about them bonuses!!!

Feliz cumpleaños, amigo! All the best, Agustín!

This is a great set! And don't think twice about buying from Hans! First class service!

zis little puppy? Guess what zis king picked out of ze bin earlier today? Passed it by a few times, already, but today I remembered the discussion about Ellefson and the Canucks, so I thought I'd take a closer look, and quickly I realized zat our very own Mr. Ted'O has written dem liner notes! Zere's a couple more of it at ze store, but I don't know when I could go and search through them bins again... (cost CHF 10.-)

Thanks, gentlemen, so on the list are: - Tristano - Sept Variations - Jade Vision How is "Inineraire Imaginaire", P.L.M.? Anyone?

Thanks for the info, Hans! I assume that disc was filled with the session that is part of the Select? Or with at least those three cuts Lion/Cuscuna had plans on releasing?

To Walk Among The Pigs King Missle (Transcribed by ear) To walk among the Pigs, To go where the Pigs go, And do as the Pigs do. To inhale the pungent stench of the Pigs, And truly savor the Scent. To sing the Song of the Pigs, To build up a repoire, To be one with the Pigs. To work shoulder to shoulder with the Pigs, On Piglike projects. To sweat like a Pig, And then to realize that Pigs never sweat. To wallow in the mud with the Pigs. To experience absolutely all that Pigness entails. To hear, To see, To feel like a Pig. To think, Eat, And smell like a Pig. To comprehend completely what it is to be a Pig. To fully understand that you, The Pigs, And all other things in the Universe, Are of the same ilk. And then, to weed out all Non-Piggish things, To fully cultivate and allow to blossom, The Flower that is the Pig within your Soul. And to finally stand alone, In the Garden of the Absolute, And pray, And pray, And pray, Like a Pig. *************************** Hans, in case you missed my email, I'm glad to report the set has arrived in all its glory (well, that's a bit of an exaggeration... they don't look *that* nice the Selects). Mike, I'll be spinning it soon, real soon! I had all but forgotten that the Quebec tracks are in there, too (how to find the quartet only tracks? probably by hunting that olde BN CD?), and will probably start my listening with these!

Just sent in my order!

Nah, that´s the problem of living in a faraway and neutral country such as Switzerland! ← At least I'm not so catholic as to cry out jesus on wordly things such as BFTs!

Hey, the party once again started without me Bring them suckers on! Lazy ass postal services!

I like it. But it's music done "by the rules". You should (and UBU too) check their pairing on a CD publish by EMOUVANCE who's name is... TRISTANO. I suppose it will suit better your taste. They play the tunes of TRISTANO, or those associate to him (317 EAST 32 ND, LINE UP, REQUIEM, LENNIE-BIRD, YOU DON'T NOW WHAT LOVE IS, WOW, DREAMS + one from LENNY POPKIN) and some originals by both in a straigth piano duo. And it's really amazing. ← Is this the Sketch in question? And this the one that's better, I guess: And here's some Oliva that looks interesting: Anyone knows of a place where Sketch discs are cheaper than on French Amazon? I still ought to pick up the two Waldrons and some of the Humairs!

How about first making the Fantasy albums readily available? (Those are the Jazz Workshop LPs, I assume? Monterey, and Music Written for...?) I have "Monterey" on LP, but have never heard the other set. Seems to be some of the best Mingus, so... what is she waiting for?

Gee, be a little bit patient, willya?

PM sent on the UK stuff!

Forgot to report, Mr. Sydney ( ), that I am proud owner of some sinister Marigolds with a weird voice, as well as some crazy Petr-ist acrobatics!

So MJM is at the same time "I" and "he"? Now that *is* mind-boggling! On the other hand, there was such a hugely overrated bassist, Fungus, or what was his name again? ... well, anyway, he said he was not only two, but even three!!!

Happy Birthday!

I have neither of these, but they both sound good! The one I have is this one: don't forget it! Solal's there, too:

Well obviously where you live the world is upside down, that's why you call it down under, maybe... Nevertheless, "Some Comination" is a terrific album also for us who stand on their feet!

I'll have to spin this one soon: That's the one I first heard Stubblefield... one of the first jazz discs I heard.

Bill Holman? Stoopid muzak! Bah! Big fan of Brookmeyer and Geru here... their music has a freshness that continues to be striking still today. Not your usual run-of-the-mill hardbop crap that those weird Germans in New York produced... you know, all those boring albums by overrated guys like Horace Silver, Art Blekey (sp?), Hank Mobley, Jackie McLean and all those other boring fellas. ← you just mentioned four of the greatest names in jazz history, so you like sarcasm too, thats cool....... ← To each his own... for me Mulligan and Pepper and Brookmeyer are just as much "great names" as Blakey and Silver and company!

Remember, the glass should always be empty (emptied?) when (before?) you drive
