  1. A typical stupid question would be. Why my wife doesn't like Anthony Braxton's music??? That is one hell of a stupid question! It's only a girlfriend here, but hell, why don't she like Albert Ayler? ubu
  2. Boasting his post count?
  3. What is jazz1 doing here?
  4. How much music is there on the Slug's date? It's the only ESP I don't have in one or the other version. Only as much so it fits easy onto one CD? Or is there more? And who sends me a burn? B) ubu

    No, I wouldn't have, and no, I don't No? Seriously? What's the story of the Kimus discs? I found out that there were six, but the last one was not released. One track (from #4, I think), was on the bonus disc of BFT #8, else, I did not know this series. Were they sort of promotional give aways? ubu
  6. When is this going to be reissued? And why will it be copy protected - and thus not bought from me... ubu
  7. That's a valid point, brownie! I am far too young to be in that same comfortable position, and the reissue practise of lots of labels is getting on my nerves (Columbia, Blue Note, Verve you name it). If they're only in it for the money, it's not too bad that others make some money, too. Of course, as far as small labels doing good work with old recordings (such as the Uptown Mingus) - the 50 year thing is really problematic. Now if there were clone labels really doing serious reissues, including complete sessions (unlike Proper, unlike Definitive), I would not hesitate too long and buy, but with things as they are now, I rather buy other music, on legitimate releases - which has the effect that my collection on pre-bebop music is pretty thin... ubu

    That buying freeze of yours seems to be quite hot at times... Get the same impression from time to time (However, you'd have picked up Kimuses #3 & #5, too, for less than the prize of one hat, no?) Seems you don't know the AALY disc? ubu

    Just for your information, behind DISCONFORME is hiding BLUE MOON who owns the much celebrated label FRESH SOUND. Thanks for that - I saw (on the Disconforme site), that they are distributing Lonehill. Did anyone find out if Freshsound and Disconforme are the same, fundamentally? Or just closely linked? ubu Ubu, There have been several discussions on the board about this - can't seem to find them right now. Bottom line: yes, they're very closely linked. Thanks, Hans, I faintly remember these discussions, but was not sure anymore about their linkage. Anyone: is this here good? http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&u...l=Auguf6j3o71u0 (I could get it cheap, and might go for it, if you recommend it, despite my buying freeze) ubu
  10. Congratulations anyway! ubu
  11. There isn't, as far as I know. And the next in your row of question then should be: was there ever an "official" release, in the sense that the artists got paid etc? And wouldn't there be more material around, as these recordings took place on at least three dates, as far as I remember? ubu
  12. Can someone please tell me what in the world a stupid question is? (I mean, I do understand that we are allowed only and exclusively to ask stupid questions in this thread, yet, what a stupid question actually is, I am not at all sure...) ubu
  13. What am I doing here? (What Duke composition am I referring to? )
  14. Wouldn't work be a little less bothering after a drink or two? I don't think could be bothered to work after a drink or two! would that bother your work?
  15. fast food white trash cheap meat jerking off drinking beer shoveling fast-food, you name it
  16. Dönertier! You know, I had sex (with myself, obviously) already 17 times today!! And for lunch, I ate seven Würste, but no small ones! ubu

  19. I see the fellow europeans get their disc - I did sign up, didn't I? Hope it's only swiss post that's slow again... ubu
  20. abuse you say? ah yes... I think some of the phrases from your original post steered it all in that direction, wouldn't you agree? Stuff like "an obese American white male, who puts in a straight six hours a day on the board, shovelling junk food and beer in one end while expelling Bronx cheers out the other, occasionally breaking to surf some porn and maybe jerk off, who thinks Kerry is some sort of radical, and all the while imagines, Walter Mitty-like, that he's an influential and respected arbiter of taste at the centre of the jazz world." isn't exactly scoring many points in the white glove department, nor does it really scream out to have an honest, friendly discussion, does it? Maybe you would like to start over and use some of those smileys or equivalent explanatory remarks. You put a big foot in your mouth, the board collectively pointed that out in all its diverse manners, and now you return to whine about THAT? Don't, it looks too sad. Before you can turn to business as usual and start any adult discussion about this topic, you really need to polish up your act. Your last post is just as condescending as the first one, so please once more, try again, this time wiv FEEWING! huh? Now, wasn't the abuse part (and the reason why John and me had so much fun here ) that while we might be white, we're (well, at least not 100%) not Americans... now: you abuse this thread to excluse us White Male Europeans from this discussion! (We're even worse, in several aspects, by the way: In adopting the US white male trash behaviour, we do even better: 10 hours on the web (9 1/2 of them in porn sites, obviously), two kgs of cheap meat a day, pop corn, diet coke all the time, dirty t-shirts, fat bellies hanging out, smelling out of our mouths, not shaving except maybe on sundays... in fact, you could say: we jerked our brains off attempting to be the better white male americans than white male americans ever could be.) ubu
  21. impossible - as a great Dolphy fan and growing completist... (you know how it continues)... I will have that stuff some day, anyway... Brad: the ARE Definitive, see here, the Lonehill page right on their website. ubu
  22. Don't bother, they suck. Clear words... thanks! What's the best way to get the Iron Man stuff? I have a Charly disc, as well as a WestWind, they do overlap a bit, but I think I got all - however, it would definitively be nice to have that music on one disc, decently remastered, complete discography, and some good liners... ubu
  23. What would the Dolphy be? Could this be (the "first time all together on one CD" would point in that direction) the complete session with Donald Byrd and Nathan Davis? (I never had those) ubu
  24. This was originally on the Warwick label. And it's Teddy Charles not Edwards), of course... Damn it Brownie... can't I have a beer in the afternoon.. well morning actually well it was a bloody mary Virgin really.... but I burnt the eggs
