Several other albums I like that were recorded on December 28: 1956: Kenny Burrell & The Prestige All Stars - All Night Long. Recorded in A jam session with Donald Byrd, Hank Mobley, Jerome Richardson, Mal Waldron, Doug Watkins, Art Taylor. 1991: Ronnie Cuber - Cubism. 1961: Les McCan - In New York. A session with Stan Turrentine and Blue Mitchell, recorded live at the Village Vanguard. 1997: Steve Turre - Lotus Flower.

Excellent idea for a forum, Jim And yet another place to say how much I enjoy GoM's programs on "Night Lights". The Xmas program was excellent!

Happy birthday Don! We all wish you were here with us! BTW, Xmas 1941 is Ronnie Cuber's b-day as well. So another happy b-day, this time to Ronnie!!

Where's your holiday spirit, pryan?

It was 60 years ago today. Woody Shaw was born and never stopped to bring happiness to the lives of so many of us. Happy birthday Woody! A pic with someone who wished he has a tenth of Woody's genius. Look how he looks at what Woody's doing...

Viewing my pics of Jerusalem and B.Goren's pics of Tel Aviv, one can begin to understand the huge difference between the two cities

One from last winter's snow in Jaffa st., city center:

And another one from my neighborhood:

Some pics from my childhood neighborhood:

Another market pic. Although I described it as an open market, most of it is covered for the last 10 years or so

Just returned from my Friday shopping in one of the greatestsopen markets in the world - "Makhneh Yehudah Market":

What Brad said! Merry Xmas everyone!!

An interesting fact: Einat's name is mentioned and she's quoted in every Hebrew newspaper, but not in the English ones. I've included the talkback as well. It represents the mixed reaction on the subject. http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?pag...d=1103685619546

Way to go, Einat!! http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/517951.html

Congrats, Chuck!! This CD has been on my want list for a while now. I must take the dive sometimes soon. well deserved!

I think it's a wise decision for Coffee shops etc. to provide free wireless service. Like Claude said, it has become very cheap, and the Cafes will get more customers this way.

Two weeks ago I entered another phase in my web life, Only 2 years after my previous Internet leap - connecting to ADL, I am now officially a wireless Internet geek! My home is now a wireless Internet zone so I surf the net wherever I want! I think it’s geekily cool to write this post in bed! I must confess though, that the primary use for my home wireless network is doing some work in some strange hours from bed or in front of the TV, but that's even less cool so try to ignore it... I any case, it actually changed my work habits. I used work from home at least one day a week, since commuting to work takes over an hour each way. In the past 2 weeks I established a temporary office in my Jerusalem day in a coffee shop - arranging meetings there and working in between meetings on my laptop. Since the entire Jerusalem center now has a free wireless internet access, and many coffee shops also provide free wireless hot spots, I am able to check my emails, talk with the office via messanger, etc. - all from the coffee shop. Not to mention surf the net while drinking my double espresso. For me, Wireless Internet is indeed a giant leap for mankind

I like Lockjaw and Griff's version in: I also like Reinhardt and Grapelli's version.

I like these sessions: Stan and Roach switch places. Every one of them is on 4 tracks. All is with Howard Rumsey's Lighthouse group w/ Frank Rosolino, Conte Candoli & Bill Perkins. Another fine disc is this: 2 1954 sessions, one is 4tet lead by Conte Candoli, with Levey. The other one is a 6tet lead by Stan Levey w/ Conte Candoli, Zoot Sims, Jimmy Giuffre (bari). Botj CDs are

Congatulations, Adam!!

Under what letter do you file Count Basie? King Oliver?

No, that's Laura. Dexter's Xmas quotes comes only every other album...

I have a private live recording of Woody Shaw playing: Auld Lang Syne
