  1. 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.
  2. Now I'm really getting confused ... what with the PC avatar and all I figured we were talking about this:
  3. I have never heard Let Freedom Ring, I was ONLY talking about Go, which wasn't that hard to figure out.
  4. 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!"
  5. 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...
  6. let us know what you think of the BJP. premiere that one at some volume!
  7. I wouldn't be wary of Amazon Mktplc if you do find what your'e looking for. I've bought many things from books to toys to DVDs and on the couple occasions I did have a problem Amazon comes to bat, unlike eBay where you and the seller and the laundry list of rules within usually get in the way if something goes awry.
  8. 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!
  9. 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.
  10. ... at least we know that the neighbors won't have any apres gig probs w/ clem either!
  11. Homer couldn't have said it better himself:
  12. Great story AL! Helps that the kid's got plenty of practice hitting them greaze-balls off Dad, too!
  13. First post here. Three items to start. PM w/ any interest at all? More to come... Alain Goraguer - "Go Go Goraguer". Uni France Digi. Marvin "Smitty" Smith - "The Road Less Travelled" w/ Steve Coleman. Concord. Miles Davis / Marcus Miller - "Siesta". WB.
  14. Some of the best Sienkiewicz art of all time.
  15. I felt it extremely bright. Granted is was nice and clean but I recall it did have a bit of hizz on the drop out soft spots. I don't get the chance to A/B much as I never have two sames at once but did here and was sold on the old time warmth offered by the 16 bit-er. Something about the higher rezz that ends up just a bit annoying over the course of a whole disc. Almost as if there is an above sonic level that gets to you after a while. Granted I'm running a solid state system so maybe that leftover zone of shrilliness up top is easily overcome by the out of the wall warmth offered with blocks or tubes. Just my two yen (for what that's worth ).
  16. So what is the consensus of the sound here now that these have been selling for some time. No more upgrading for me but I did pick up "Davis Cup" in the 6XXX series a ways back and could not get it out of my hands fast enough. Nearly RVG series to my system. Guess I need tubes! Luckily I scored a regular old TOCJ cheap and am very happy.
  17. such a big ass orange pilon through the roof is indeed a spooky thing thank god that orange pilon is off by a few yards. safe from the bunker buster once again!
  18. that is cool! found my studio by mere topography. putting in the address is too spooky.
  19. So that's what happens when ya get banned? Ya get to go to Catesta's for ribs! wtf!! We have a loud Harley biker on our street. He's an anesthesiologist, by prior practice and natural selection I believe , at Mass General in Boston.
  20. I see that Water is re-issuing 'Brown Sugar' later this year.
  21. Nice. (post that is)
  22. Took a lot of Googling to sleuth him(sic) out but now SoulStation1 can finally rent out that signature space.
