  1. Interesting - he's got some UK gigs coming up shortly so good timing. :)

    Do make that a priority! Saw him a couple months back and he and the band, sans Esperanza :( that evening, were great.

    Francesco Mela is a MONSTER!!!

  2. '85...

    first couple were black triangle (whatever those were ^_^) Japanese 'best of Blue Notes vol 1 & 2', 'Aja' and Joe Williams 'Nothin' But The Blues' as I had the vinyl and wanted to know what these things sounded like. the only place you could buy them in Cleveland at the time was a little import store in the Arcade. Those few were probably lunch money for a month.

    did not get a player of my own for some time - a guy at work bought a Sony D5 (i think) and we would listen via headphones or bring it around to our respective apts and hook it up with the cheapo RCAs. we were all completely blown away by them.

    being pretty much a neophyte to Blue Note I cranked that Vol. 2, taped for the car, endlessly!!

  3. NCAA stiffs Buckeyes!

    ESPN: COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Five Ohio State football players, including quarterback Terrelle Pryor, must sit out the first five games of the 2011 season for accepting improper benefits, the NCAA ruled Thursday.

    All of the players be eligible for the Jan. 4 Allstate Sugar Bowl, however.

    Five players were found to have sold awards, gifts and university apparel, plus receive improper benefits in 2009. In addition to missing five games next season, Pryor, Mike Adams, Daniel Herron, Devier Posey and Solomon Thomas must repay money and benefits ranging in value from $1,000 to $2,500. The repayments must be made to a charity

    wtf is with these players!? something in them "buckeye leaf" stickers numbing their brains? or just the lineage of Hayes, Schlichter, Clarett, Tatum ...

  4. hi cih,

    threads and such touching on this abound. Teasing the Korean has much input. and Big Beat is right - the Miles / Wilen is spot on!

    one in particular that is available on iTunes was discussed here: murder. inc.

    while not straight up noir, Irving Joseph, a bit more bouncy, was just down the road from Raymond Scott it seems - I could see a pack of hungry cannibals actually following thru to this soundtrack.

    then there's this precursor to Naked City (in 3 parts):
