So toss us some bones for the cable-less throngs who need the fine organissimo play-by-play and color-men to hip us to the real deal of last night's show up in Boston. This guy actually punked Sheffield? Read that Francona's toss was expertly choreographed by the ump? Dan, get on that McGarver sweater vest and camel hair sportcoat, the lurkers await the news!

The Masters 2005
Man with the Golden Arm replied to Soulstation1's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Apparently NIKE execs were feeling much the same way. Seems Woods was playing a new prototype ball that comes out next month. Amazing that the thing rested for a few moments so all could see the swoosh. Try this at 80 : Tiger chip. -

I've been attempting, off and on, for a long time to procure some Ben Sidran discs to replace my LPs. Since the stuff has never been issued domestically, could someone tell me if this is crazy or what? "Don't Let Go" "Feel Your Groove"

Up for late bloomers as I just saw this over the weekend. Highest of thumbs here! Our fourth grader thought it was "stoopid" ... she's, of course, got a lot to learn. "Grandma broke her cockix" Napoleon reading the Letterman Top Ten

FA: some eBay auctions
Man with the Golden Arm replied to Man with the Golden Arm's topic in Offering and Looking For...
my god it is! and it's one o dem spiffy SACD Hybrid jobs so you can practically here the lyrics squeezing through Elton's spittin' space. that was a classic and still is, presumably, but when i cued up "Funeral For a Friend / Love Lies Bleeding" my wife had a fit and threatened to sell the stereo! she even uttered a WTF bomb. the JoJo was my daughter's and even she decided it was horrible. So bid away. -
eBay jazz and such .... thanks for checking it out.

Thanks for the encouragement ! I'd started to give up on this one as a lost cause but I gotta hear that Big John ( ). An interesting stock at the $£&**^%$s to say the least. Man, that stinks about that BJP. Shoulda jumped when the gun went off! A speedy e-mail upon receipt of one of those "back in stock' notices usually allows a "hold' on that item for ten days so you can double up on an order. They are really great about that!

sampled just the snips on iTunes and this sounds a whole lot more enjoyable that the Six Degrees Chizzil offerings of late. thanks for the rec. and review.

AOTW McLean 'Let Freedom Ring'
Man with the Golden Arm replied to Man with the Golden Arm's topic in Album Of The Week
Now I'm really getting confused ... what with the PC avatar and all I figured we were talking about this: -

I have never heard Let Freedom Ring, I was ONLY talking about Go, which wasn't that hard to figure out. -
AOTW McLean 'Let Freedom Ring'
Man with the Golden Arm replied to Man with the Golden Arm's topic in Album Of The Week
awww man, I just started this thing a tad bit too early and look at it already - "A Fine Organissimo Tradition". I'm just waiting for my Dad to yell out the window at us to stop yappin' and play ball! Yeah I can see the Kat's point to some wee degree on the 'Gigilo' esp but biggrin.gif Higgins deserves a bit of respect and has much around here. Now I can use chopsticks like a surgeon but that's as far as it goes for me and the mini bats so I'll take a flyer on the bashin' thing. So a few come in all revved up about this album, and frankly I'm waiting to get some good tips from the boys here (that real Organissimo trad like Sangrey and Late trading courses over Miles at the Nickel and such), and now the man in the mitten bids adieu? How sweet it must have been to get a good old chip-board cut under the nail whilst slicing open the shrink off stuff we drool upon generations later. If ya gotta start out the thread on such a nasty note maybe a PM fired off to that Amazonian cycle pygmy from Finland is in order. But on second thought ... "Let Freedom Ring!" -
I forgot all about my duty. My first Jackie McLean album ... and boy I cranked that and loved it to death for a good long time. Lately though I've become a bit soft in the ears and I guess am in need of hearing out from the powers that be about Jackie's foundational bridge here. 'LFR' runs hot and cold with me dependent upon the mood and for an album to do that there must be some intrigue. Jackie's explained it to us from within, now maybe the Organissimites can have at it! Granted this set has probably seen more of it's fair share of discussion so...

Koch to reissue Charlie Parker label
Man with the Golden Arm replied to brownie's topic in Re-issues
an aside - Lon, I just picked this up from Dusty for four bucks. One in the same and see they are pushing a Spanish issue as definitive. The one I have is from Collectables and sound is great. Never paid much attention to Mudell Lowe but this disc is fantastic to me! -
Travelling to Paris, France
Man with the Golden Arm replied to undergroundagent's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Paris was one of my favorite stops during an all too brief Euro run about twenty years ago. Let the city take you. Certainly happy I did not go the typical touristic route while there and my memories are stronger for that. My only rec would be to visit the catacombs. After all the pastels and joi de vivre the perspective offered from being deep down in the earth amongst the skelptures certainly made the neck hair stand on end. Nothing several Stellas post haste did not cure. -
... at least we know that the neighbors won't have any apres gig probs w/ clem either!

Can I share the moment with y'all?

Great story AL! Helps that the kid's got plenty of practice hitting them greaze-balls off Dad, too! -
