Man with the Golden Arm

time for a group circumcision. sorry i couldn't come up w/ a g__d g__gle ...

i only saw the second song last night, so thanks for the first. did he get defunked since last i saw him? some tame Vernon Reid it looks like. hard to watch him and not the dervishes but as for SNL fair as of late Steve Martin and Prince seem like the second coming.

them Town-Barges are sweet in the snow ... thank goodness it made it that long hailing from Wisconson!

I should pick up "Best In Show" just so I can laff at the fact that I sold too much of my stuff way too cheap after seeing this list.

I'd like to know what Big Joe had to eat while he was down in Mexico! I finally got a new table set up and Big Joe's Pablo's have had a few spins. "Allll-righty!"

they do wear the same glasses, no?

Just pulled out a not so recent aqcuisition that has small "clock work" bars on one side - they appear every few inches in perfect pattern. No doubt it was left on one of those platters that have the "rays" of rubber to support the LP rather than a felt mat. Luckily the owner must have liked the same side of the LP that I do and that is obviously how the blemish problem came to be. Can't really get these off by gentle rubbing as I think maybe the platter's rubber played chemical havoc w/ the vinyl. But that should only impare the very surface ... maybe a nice fifty cent piece on the needle?

ah, but it is a limited edition of only a few hundred so i got that goin' for me. sound is top notch. merely a re-issue of "dziewczyna z aszchkabadu" no doubt looking for a mallet weilder with hair of steel!

My first!! post in this forum as I just got my new table up and running. First spin ... the only album I have bought in nearly 15 years. Jerzy Milian "Ashkhabad Girl" - OBU Records #130 of 350. while googling for the cover I found her too.

I happened to see (and only see it w/o sound) just a bit of that Oprah show and found it amazing how they camera'ed Frey in stark video mode and then would swith to the Big Job with the nice gaussian (sp?) filter to give her that slightly smokey angelic blurr of ever goodliness. Almost as subliminal as that guy's book I gather.

holy shit is right ... just don't look under the patio!

that does not even compare to the smut that i get ... such as : "which came first"?

Yes, thanks! I had an MRI last evening and took some Sun Ra with me (twas a space ship thing). A horrible fidelity experience to be sure but Ra actually "worked" at times with the magnetic percussion section added to the Ark.

that out of context is a priceless sentence. wonder what Elvin thought.

hoo baba kanda!

I always blame the dog.

more beans mr. taggart?

Since that whole transgenderacial thing is complete all that was left was the Bahrain Transplant.

I always thought it was "wussy" (combination of wimp/pussy), the plural being "wussies". Judges? correct you are! but i figure if i use a word that really does not scrabble then i can spell as i please ... i guess it does conjure a chewbacca-girly-beast ... now them wombat lovin lilly livered vegimite eaters is "waussies".

Dang Broncos ... even their fans are woosies! ha!

This just in: I now see that the Zorn / Tzadik catalogue has been placed on iTunes. Who'd ever thunk it ... Saw the newest release in the Film Music series - 'Marie Menken' - and if I had a couple bucks sitting about I'd grab "gogogo" and "Arabesque" - Zorn pops up on alto on these two and sounds fresh as back in the days of "The Bribe" ... (load up "Skit Rhesus" there). Aplenty to peruse and sample and while the iTunes might be fine for the budget in some respects you don't get the packaging which Zorn at least cares deeply about - regardless of hidden kiddie porn and free tickets to the Guignol. I might just grab MMW's take on Gainsbourg's "Intoxicated Man" for cheers. (his "little brother" does a cruise worthy version of "Ford Mustaaang" that's worth .99 too.)

or at the very least packed in a nice little cheese box!

I think there's a Bill Evans recording here!?

Just this morning I heard this Lizzy McGuire organ riff from the other room!

I had no idea Warne died while playing. Yes, but the name of the club was Donte's. What an infernal typo!
