  1. Marc Ribot - "Saints" !? while Ribot is just friggin' great I think this is by no means needed in any top ten whatsoever. Altho one must have an album with animal balloons to be hip.
  2. no one laffed when i posted my "carbon fiber q-tip" back in the power cord thread. (hello, is this thing on?)
  3. i have only "The Bridge" and it being vinyl have not listened to it for a looong time. however, i do wonder what might have been had he stayed in the E Street Band with Mad Dog Lopez and kept their boss closer to them jazzier roots he had. when i watched the 'Making of BTR' on DVD Springsteen said something to the affect of how good his previous band really was and how their improvisational abilities really broadened his early interests. his playing on "The Wild ... " is just great.
  4. from what i've read it sounds as if you can supplant this view onto a thread about that new Lynch film coming. eager to see what that brings. that aronofsky "requiem for a dream" still bothers me.
  5. heh, thanks ... love that Hector too. rolls right into (tip o' the fedora) JSangry's Darondo: "Legs"! just sampled a few from the above Soul Fires and looks like another platter is in the mix. and here I was only gonna do emusic for a month.
  6. I recently settled up a playlist of mostly e-music grabs from the Ubiquity label along with a few from a disc called 'Vital Organs'. onehundrednineteenminutes&fifteensecondsofpuresalaappp!
  7. That's the one. "Apeshit" is an appropriate description! Dead on in your assessment of that set; this track makes it worth the cost of the set alone. I can still remember the first days after I got that set.... I kept playing that tune again and again, cranking up the volume! Me three! I'd even call folks up to my studio space here an make them sit for it. But I just really want to hear the next few minutes that rolled on despite the knob fade. Is it just me?
  8. after looking at the over-rated thread it seems I like that genre best. Sam Rivers - "Phewwsha Schwing Song" Sonny Clark - "Cool Struttin'" (complete) Horace Silver - "Finger Poppin'" Hank Mobley - "WorkOut" Jackie McLean - "Jackie's Bag" Sonny Clark - "My Conception" Art Blakey - "Mosaic" Bobby Hutcherson - "Happenings" Big John Patton - "Got A Good Thing Goin'" (and I'm taking that for the cover, too!) Monk - "Genius" complete TOCJ 66119-20
  9. very nice write up TMG ... thanks for taking the time. top of mind as just last weekend I made a sort of chronological mix of Jackson for a party hosted by a neighbor up the road who's nickname is "The Gator". he was nonplussed at best.
  10. I was looking at the ANTI records site and see that Billy Higgins is listed on drums in the "Bawlers" set? might one know of a discography for this set?
  11. They play out quite a bit up in Gloucester, usually solo. The acoustics from the band shell are otherworldly.
  12. thought you guys were spoofin' with this thread, but ... i guess not as this is true genius!
  13. Wow I thought I might be the only one slisdexic enough to read just that.
  14. Incredible shot! You couldn't see on the vid - was he in a bunker? MG no, he was in the short rough (you know that wifey of his) and probably hit an eight iron, but I couldn''t resist.
  15. ... and then we'll have ta let Tiger patent the sandwedge.
  16. Tinnitus is one of those near horrors I cannot imagine. Any ringing in my ears freaks me out. A very interesting article from GQ that appeared over a decade ago crazily documents the results of extreme tinnitus and it's aftermath that happened to a friend/coworker/cohort of my wife. Worth a read despite the convolutions of the text. the article is linked within a website about him. GQ - BoltFlash! This American Life - act three, click listen and fast forward.
  17. never been ... but my family used to go to the Delaware Water Gap for Thanksgiving ... beautiful country. just by clicking your link i do see they have this!
  18. me too. http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...mp;#entry582686 (i never get to do that) Segal had a good time with him - not quite Carl Rove. and I emusic-ed a bunch of cuts from the "brawlers" disc (til my download manager went belly up{?}). more up my alley. will be listening tomorrow!
  19. 'Orphans' out today and an interview on NPR.
  20. DAMN! they played that end after the Pats game here. never do i see the Browns anymore and it flipped over with the Squeelers on the 4! That tip drill almost paid off! RED RIGHT 88
  21. 21 - 7 with 6 left in the half. the bux will be showing the maze a squonk bag! someone go out and sweep up all them wolverine jock-straps!
