I do not like the Friday night element of this. Friday = HS football night. So a big part of his demographic will either be playing or watching HS football. Not an issue if this is non-fall of course.

Got it. That is too bad then.

Not to pee on your thread, but the buyout might actually be a good thing. They certainly won't have to worry about hitting short-term financial targets. If the buyers are looking to "unlock value", I can't think of a better place.

My 15 year old son is a music freak and he plays lead guitar in a rock band. He has a zillion songs on his iTunes. How many CDs has he bought in the last year? Maybe one or two. It is a different world.

Strange that there are only 6 tracks listed. Yes, but these guys list all of them http://www.bluenote.com/detail.asp?SelectionID=10634

Glad to hear he is still around. Delightful place and man!!!

Don't have spares, but I was weaned on the Lyons book back in the early 80s. Note that it mentions mostly lp re-issues, but their CD counterparts can be figured out easily enough. Enjoy!

Alec Baldwin does a great impression of him on an SNL episode.

Try: Mal Waldron - Mal 1 Coltrane/Burrell/Flanagan - The Cats Bobby Jasper/George Wallinginton - Same All of these are of the same vintage as Coolin (which I love). All excellent (I picked up several of them in the Concord blow-out last year)!

Up - this really is a nice session for Mitchell fans!!

Any way to grab part of it from the outside - say with a needle-nose pliers? Bummer

Thanks!!!! And Happy Birthday

Plus (all from the 80s/90s): MONSOON - Steeplechase WEST 42ND STREET - Candid SHADOWS - Timeless ALTO MEMORIES - Verve THE RED AND ORANGE POEMS - Atlantic EPISODE ONE: CHILDREN OF HARLEM - Challenge THE BLUES CHRONICLES - Atlantic LIVE @ THE JAZZ STANDARD: VOL. 1 - Oyo The one on Verve (France I think) has Sonny Fortune. Neighborhood is my favorite, bur Children of Harlem and Alto Memories are close seconds.

Yes and the "7000 series" catalog no. was a nice touch

Man, you are on fire

Marrying Tony's sister worked miracles for Bobby. I would say it would be a positive for Patsy if Tony likes his son, more family connection and all. But it didn't seem that Tony was all too thrilled about the relationship. Yeah, Tony seems to be a "facts & circumstance" kind of guy.

whether you go north or go south, just find wide open spaces without too many disrupting vertical structures et voilà... Damn fine!!!

Then I heard it wrong. What did he say? Ass. Hmm, I heard "eyes" too. Either way, it is a funny visual.

Good episode tonight, although I wish AJ had been more successful I am sure I will be proven wrong, but it seems we are going to see a "classic" mob ending, as the conflict between Tony and Phil can only end one way. I do wonder if Phil wil continue to jack with Meadow (which I see as part revenge for his brother and part an easy way to bait Tony). Although somewhat insignificant to the overall story line, I did like the way they reinforced the fact that Little Carmine is a lightweight - it made more sense than casting as a genuine power broker between Tony and Phil. The preview snippets certainly seemed dramatic - did I hear Sil accusing Tony of "playing both sides"? If so, wonder what that is all about? Edit: Sil says "someone" is playing both sides ...

Hate to say it, but I don't like this one nearly as much as the two that came out on US BN CD. The grooves here seemed a little too simple/repetitive, although it has been a while since I listened. Will be curious to get your thoughts.

That was my take, although I was somewhat surprised that his tripping did not get ugly given a) his attempts at self-evaluation with Melfi and b) all the nasty shit he has done. I kept waiting for it, but instead it continues to reinforce the fact that he is (as mentioned earlier) a sociopath.

What did you say? If you watch with closed captioning on, the dialog appears printed on your screen.
