  1. I don't know this record. Who plays on it?
  2. I have an Apple Mac (desktop) using Sonoma 14.6.1. My interest is ripping and burning CDs. This used to be easy. These days, I seem to be tech-challenged.
  3. Would anyone recommend this one? https://www.amazon.com/Unitek-External-Portable-Compatible-Desktop/dp/B0DD3SH1NX/ref=pd_rhf_dp_s_ci_mcx_mr__d_sccl_1_1/139-6464352-9634047?pd_rd_w=qzDIQ&content-id=amzn1.sym.c2ce25da-4d17-4f37-af20-bde98a9f0bcd%3Aamzn1.symc.d3391730-f670-41da-8b34-61787b3edb82&pf_rd_p=c2ce25da-4d17-4f37-af20-bde98a9f0bcd&pf_rd_r=NYSW5Y8961RGBPAP3ETH&pd_rd_wg=T0eb3&pd_rd_r=51140dfe-0e85-40c7-b521-9cc4c1d1f334&pd_rd_i=B0DD3SH1NX&th=1
  4. I have to open the drawer with a paper clip, there is no light, disc does not spin. I'm done with it.
  5. It is an Apple computer. The setup requires an adapter on the CD drive cord.
  6. Has anyone used this for ripping, burning, and even listening to CDs? I just received this today, and I can't get it to function at all. My previous CD drive (LG) worked fine on my old HP computer and my current Apple Mac. This one...just a problem. I tried a host of troubleshooting trips and no luck. There were a lot of good reviews on this, so I am surprised. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
  7. Very cool indeed. Randy Weston has not been well-represented in the 1980s. The Brooklyn Academy disc is interesting for having such a large band--a fairly rare thing for Weston.
  8. I like Steve Slagle quite a bit, though indeed his visibility is low. He is a fine player who is also skilled on flute and bass clarinet. I like his co-led records with guitarist Dave Stryker. Even on their individual records, these long-running collaborators often appear together.
  9. Steve Turre has been on the label for a while now. The one I like best is Colors of the Masters.
  10. Steve Slagle...was he mentioned? I can't say that I read this entire long thread started decades ago.
  11. Isn't #10 a Mingus tune? I have no idea on the artists.
  12. On the basis of making records with Bill Frisell and Charlie Haden, Ginger is OK in my book.
  13. Randy Weston lived in Morocco for at least 5 years. Talk about immersion. He also ran a night club, so you could say that while he was bringing even more of Africa into his music, he was also bringing American jazz to Africa.
  14. Sounds like this could be quite good. The band may be similar to the one on Social Studies (1980), my favorite early Carla Bley album.
