Man with the Golden Arm

some fresh translation here. beautiful prose!

i clicked over just to make sure he had not lost his mind ...

any tips on this? wondering if the readings are pretty straight and that this might be a simple quick re-hash record despite the cast, but i've been so knoocked out by the truly original 'Satan in High Heels' that it could be hard to resist.

The list of casualties will no doubt include that football when Chris hits town. At least they will have a hearty welcome!

wow, nice!! (well plenty south of there). please do give us a rundown ... great if ony to see acoustic masada and osby, not to mention the sheer beauty i would imagine. maybe if one hides inside of a ceramic bird ...

Cuckoos?!

Seeing many of the Brits checking in here is good to see at a time like this. My thoughts are with you all. Damn.

Lady Day seems to be expressing perfect criticism for her work.

yes, yes and those sessions with Silver on the bench are the cornerstones of "funk" - which, btw, I tried to explain to my kids just yesterday that jazz gave birth to funk and that the Black Eyed Peas are not worthy successors by any means!

just remember to bring lots of tissues!

Best to you Chris. Make certain any hitch-hikers come well equipped.

His reasons for going there are purely subliminal!

thanks Pete. FWIW the recent Harkit release (see the Bastards) is the same material sans 5 extra takes of "Tubby's Blues" and under the title 'On The Air'. I happened to e-mail AoLR earlier regarding this release and received this mail that confirms some suspicion regarding Harkit ... plus if you pre-order you get $3.00 off so it works out to be a bit less than Dusty Groove.

shouldn't we be boycotting Coke AND Walmart?!

damn! and i spent a few minutes googling for klinger in a moo-moo to illustrate that "general unpleasantness" / "general in a peasant dress" thing.

my pet peeve is "where's your mother's tongue at". drives me nuts cause my mother would spritely crack her own with a quick "behind the at".

for me, more to eat squid ink pasta by -

don't look like "just" to me .... start mixin the banana daiquiris!

salute!

first album i ever bought ... @ Giant Tiger $2.99 (new)!

nothing from this either!?

I only saw this once in the theater but I thought the cheeks ( I agree - silly) were an hommage to the radiator in Eraserhead.?

you know when that guy tried to get cute and all and follow some nice accordion with some more accordion and then some silly film music and then some more B3 accordion. i vote for the fifty minute blindfold test from now on! just stop that #7 after #14 is all. can't wait for the revised second edition. or maybe he'll send out a second disc or at least the outer ring of one that you can glue down onto the other.

shit, you didn't herniate youseff?

ICE IT FIRST.... don't screw around with the ice/hot/cold treatments yet. Ice that baby NOW!!! you can do no harm with that ... you can with heat!!! call the chiro but make sure he/she ain't a quack ... they are great when they are great and when they're not they suck!
