well, I always had a lively imagination, but this beats everything!

And while 14 Franks might be the prize of a CD, you would have to show me a shop first selling any new ones for less than 23 Franks or even 25... dreaded swiss prizes!

things like that happen... most everyone I suppose knows about those taxes and just pays. However, it seems many only pay the radio, and have a tv nevertheless. There have been some publicity campaigns (on tv and in movie theaters) to make people pay them dreaded taxes.. couln't you convince that nice fellow that you only need the car radio to listen to CDs?

This will undoubtedly invite participation of more board members. got some nice additions to my growing collection thanks to a nice fellow right now reading the rat... had a listen to snippets of Zorn/Lewis/Frisell's "News For Lulu" (hat) and hey that one's good! A nice addition to the Sonny Clark Memorial album (Soulnote), and quite a bit less mainstream-ish than that one. thanks!

gone, no offense intended, and you're right about Monk abusing for blowing, but I think Straight No Chaser is one of the straightest Monk tunes around, so in that case I don't think it's really an abuse.

Go read the shoelace thread in the Misc. Forum and you'll understand. By the way, there's a tune on Secret Treaties call Cagey Cretins. Mayby I could rename this thread that? :rsly: I read about your ironing shoelaces... pretty adventurous guy, you! ubu

Why the fuck are all of you cleaning? Are you so dirty? And what about your domestics?

Shockingly calming! The king is not bemused, no Sir! Listening to some Sclavis-Texier-Romano while transferring it to the HD. ubu

I will report on "Wing Vane" once I get to it. Looks great, though. "Drums Unlimited" I have in a strnage older version from 1988, labelled Atlantic, Warner, and EastWest Japan depending from which side you look at it. About "Triangle", I got a burn of that (as well as the Soulnote "... Mars" disc that was album of the week some time ago), and like both of them very much, but haven't listened to them as often as I should. I have the same tendency to disgrade Johnson & Erskine, however, I picked up this very nice Erskine disc last year: It came out on Novus, orignally, but in 99 Erskine reissued it on his own Fuzzy Music label (I think it's his own, not sure). It features Johnson and Kenny Werner as the basic rhythm trio, and added soloists include Lovano (often in quartet), Scofield (only on three tracks, one in quartet, one with Lovano and Randy Brecker), and on one track Bob Mintzer and Randy Brecker, Lovano & Sco. The disc is great, if you find it, don't hesitate! Kenny Werner is another highly competent "contemporary piano trio" man. I just recorded parts of his concert at this years "Jazz à Ramatuelle" off French radio, and hey, that man is good! All of them players that are often too easily dismissed, I think. ubu

Had a listen to this one, love the three Taylor tracks! They have a loose feeling I miss on some of his other early stuff (namely the Candid sessions). Great treatment of that Billy Strayhorn tune! Also just finished listening to this one: Not the easiest music to listen to, but I think it's quite a fascinating disc. Combine the deceptively simple yet tricky Lacy tunes with Gustafsson at the most complex and exploring... out comes a disc that's about as much about sounds and noise as it is about Lacy's music. That is not meant in a negative way. Had a listen to the above-pictured Delbecq-Houle disc, not sure about it yet. Right now listening to the Rob Scheps-Zach Brock webcast I linked above. Solid mainstream jazz, a bit on the unusual side with violin in the frontline. Then: Geoff: I finally had a listen to your improvisation, and HELLYEAH! Keep goin'!

to marvel, that's why I allowed you, in the first time... oh, no, sorry, that was deus himself, but hey, he's absent. he just created and then went back to wherever he came from... -

Shouldn't you be practicing on your bari? I heard you got a gig. and it comes with screen time! how's the script coming along? the king just informed me he will recede now and emerge later with a bag full of noises. what kind of kindergarten is this? the king was practising tenor (and having dinner) at a friends' and coming back he finds his subjects acting in such disgusting ways... tzz tzz -

Has this turned into the younger brother of the stoopid question thread? Why didn't the British behead the @#$ing royals? Do they consider themselves living in a democracy? -
Happy Birthday!
