  1. Gosh, a real live woman is on this board? Not one of those "Men with women's names" folks like Fran, Bev, and Mary McGoon? If I had only known, I thought this board was all male. Sorry ma'am! Let me the first to wish you a belated Happy Mother's day!
  2. Hope you don't mind if I "borrow" that image! :rsmile: Have to admit, now I am aroused by it....
  3. Brad, I just fail to see how it could offend a lot of people! I laughed out loud when I saw it, thought there was something genuine about it, thought others might as well. I was only going to have it up for a day or two, then saw this thread, and how some reacted to it. Now it is staying, at least thru the week-end. This image is not going to bring down a board, a board not run by a business(OK, you could say it is run by a business, but not a big one!) Funny, how some on the left always want to censor folks, or force them to censor themselves if they disagee with someone's views. Well, image wise at least. Words are a different thing altogether. People can say Fuck, shit, whatever on this board, and we are supposed to be adults and able to handle it, but post a non-nude photo in your signature line, and all hell breaks loose. If there were 12 year olds here, it would be different, though how many here would still want to use any and all language anyway, saying they know the words anyway? I wonder how many would complain about Andres Serrano's Piss Christ used in a signature line...nah, that's "Art"
  4. Yes Lon, you are....You truly remind me of a grade-schooler with a grudge... You got mad at me at the AAJ, for daring to joke that I had had sex with Norah Jones.... Here is the semi funny remarks that so angered Lon and first got me called...shutter, a 12 year old. Yes, Mosaic, please put out a complete Herman Columbia set! I hear Norah is quite the big fan! In fact, she just told me the other day after we had sex, that if Mosaic didn't put out a Herman set, a Jack Pettis set, a Boswell sisters set, AND a Annette Hanshaw set, she was going to quit Bluenote!!!no, I didn't call her a 20 dollar an hour whore, just made a remark. Funny, Chris A. can call Condoleezza Rice a Skeeza, a whore, yet that 70+ year old isn't called a 12 year old by Lon. Wonder why??? Oh that's right, Lon holds a grudge forever! Why?? Well, the fascinating story is that a long time ago, on a board far, far away, I dared to comment that I wanted to punch Michael Moore in the nose! No, I did not wish he would have a heart attack and die, or that I would like to slit his throat, I said I wanted to punch him in the nose!!! Oh, the humanity! I am a violent man with a hair trigger temper!That really got stuck in Lon's craw! A few months later, I PM the guy to tell him about a cd, and I get a message back saying he didn't want to associate with people who want to hurt someone he admired(Moore) Now, what was it that pushed me to say I wanted to punch Moore? Well, someone had posted an article from England, from someone who saw Moore's one man show. If the passengers had included black men, he(Moore) claimed, those killers, with their puny bodies and unimpressive small knives, would have been crushed by the dudes, who as we all know take no disrespect from anybody. Now, I ask you, who should be more upset, Lon, at me for saying I would like to punch Moore in the nose, Or me at Lon for admiring Moore even after insulting DEAD MURDER VICTIMS, AND THEIR FAMILIES??? Lon, you have never once addressed what he said. Do you find that it tickled your funny bone? Did it seem to be in good taste? I bet you that some family members really did hear about his hatful remarks about their loved ones. How does that make you feel? Norah is never going to see my remarks, but I need to grow up. I post a old woman getting her boobs held, by her husband I might add, no nipples showing, and that is just terrible! makes perfect sense to me! Look in the mirror Lon! You need to grow up! Some people are liberals, others will be conservatives! Hold both groups to the same standard you claim to have...

    Man, how do these old men get so damn lucky! Tony Iommi, of Black Sabbath fame, married Maria Sjöholm OF Drain STH fame(Surely you heard of them???)The lovely couple... Here is the cover of the groups last cd before they broke up... It's just not fair I tells ya!
  6. So, I guess this avatar has been just for my amusement for the last week! Now the tree should be falling in all forests, and making lots of noise, heard by everyone...
  7. Hey, I like the photo, something sweet about it! And Chris, I got the PM, no, I don't know her name, or her phone number, sorry!
  8. Now I am curious, does no one see my avatar? Is it just an X??? If they could be a bit bigger, hint, hint, we all could choose some really cool stuff!!!!
  9. Jazzmoose, Rooster Ties, I did check out this topic, didn't really know if I had anything to add to it..(But when has that ever stopped me from opening my mouth!)but the situation in the ATL is different than what you are reporting, at least in some areas.(Some are still all white, others all black) I big chunk of the suburbs are racially mixed. I AM the minority here where I live . I have mentioned before that my neighborhood is something like 60-70 percent black. I have gone into the local Kroger and been the only white person in the store....I am sure some on the left would be shocked, just shocked to find this doesn't bother me, but it really doesn't. If it did, I would move. Clearly a few neighbors were bothered and left dodge though. I also drive old Caddys and Buicks, so there is lots and lots of car talk going on between black guys(Why women rarely like old cars is as big a mystery to me as why they also rarely like jazz) and myself. If they are truly car nuts, or have a classic car, I tell them about the cruise ins around town, which still are fairly white, but you do see more blacks coming to them, which I did not see 10 years ago, for the most part. I don't care what anyone says, there really is not much of a jazz scene in Atlanta, so can't comment on the music scene. Wish there was one, seems back in the 80's there was.... When I did go to concerts, they were of the heavy metal kind, and they truly were lily white, though I did see one black kid at one concert, once! I also date a black girl at work a few years back, not because she was black, but because I liked her. All of her friends though were white, which does make you wonder.... so the solution for you all is to move to Atlanta! We have it all figured out....
  10. It's just your bad luck! Seriously, I have had that kind of bad luck with the soundtrack to the film Major League. I would see it garner 50-60 bucks, and I found it used twice at different Wherehouse music stores, and each time was counting on getting fistfuls of dollars, and got 9.99 and 15 for it instead. I do feel that even though I hate reserves, it might be worth it for cds that can be worth some bread. Also, if you ever find something that should bring in big bucks, check the completed auctions to see what categories folks used to get the big bucks(Obviously, Duke should go in jazz, but perhaps someone just used-cds "other") and check out their counters also if they had them. If only 10-12 people checked out an auction during a 7 day run, there may not be that many fans, and better to use the reserve thing....just checked completed auctions, you weren't kidding you do have good(and lots of) feedback! Didn't mean to talk to you like someone with a feedback of 20! I think RDK might be right about not having photos, you can always, ummm, borrow photos if allmusic or Amazon has a shot of the cover if you don't have a scanner. I also noticed the guy who got $ 127 put the cd in two categories R&B as well, and got 117 views, and someone else who got 34.99 with buy it now only had around 40 hits in 6 days......interesting...too bad you didn't get more!
  11. I have seen that tactic used on Gold cds...not MFSL, Not DCC....
  12. You are the man Chuck! Thanks for the Info....
  13. So I was wasting time....I mean, doing valuable jazz research, and stumbled across this cd at http://www.timelessjazz.com/ >link to this cd< here is the really big scan of the front of the cd... Ok...I looked at the track listings with very tired eyes...I don't see what they are on! Anyone know what tracks they may be on???? Thanks!
  14. Alexander, you have to remember this song from 1983!...And Weizen, best group from San Fran ever??? THE TUBES She's A Beauty Step right up and don't be shy Because you will not believe your eyes She's right here, behind the glass You're gonna like her, 'cause she's got class You can look inside another world You get to talk to a pretty girl She's everything you dream about... But don't fall in love She's a beauty She's one in a million girls She's a beauty Why would I lie Why would I lie? You can say anything you like But you can't touch the merchandise She'll give you ev'ry penny's worth But it will cost you a dollar first You can step outside your little world [step outside] You can talk to a pretty girl She's everything you dream about But don't fall in love She's a beauty She's one in a million girls One in a million girls Why would I lie Why would I lie? But don't fall in love If you do you'll find out you're gonna lose She's one in a million girls One in a million girls Why would I lie Now why would I lie? Step outside your world... But don't fall in love She's a beauty She's one in a million girls One in a million girls Why would I lie Now why would I lie? But don't fall in love If you do you'll find out you're gonna lose She's one in a million girls One in a million girls Why would I lie Now why would I lie? But don't fall in love She's a beauty She's one in a million girls One in a million girls Why would I lie Now why would I lie?
  15. Ghost, that is interesting! Bozy is mentioned from time to time in the book you will get thru, eventually! I don't need to find out any more tracks he is not on...I saw that the Jack Purvis set has a Boswell sisters song that was always credited to Berigan (It's the Girl?) 600 tracks that he is not on? I had heard Berigan was on around 600 tracks total...will be interesting to see if that number goes up, or down! I can tell him most of the time with an open horn, but a few tracks muted I have heard I could not swear it was him....I have read that Manny Klein was confused with him sometimes but Manny seems to play more NPM's (notes per minute ) so I can spot him...Purvis fooled me though...
  16. Does it still look like that? It has looked fine for me anytime I see it....
  17. Maybe, but my sympathy is gonna cost more than $7.50 a day. CAPITALIST!!!!!!!!!!!!
  18. Don't let PETA know about these sites! I am sure they would find something wrong with it....
  19. Hey did everybody click in the center box??? Wack indeed!
  20. Well, we will never know cuz Norah has increased sales so much, that the microscopic sales of jazz cd dropping another 5-10% , well no one will even notice that. I didn't want to go out of my way to punish Mosaic as well,but I was going to ask for a Venuti-Lang in mid March for my B-day but the board thing left such a bad taste in my mouth I didn't....Take that Blue Note!
  21. When Epic issued these on lp they cut out the Chick Bullock vocals (not a bad idea). Classics reissued these versions in their Berigan series, but issued the complete versions in the set called "Complementary Tracks". Hey, lay of the Chickster man! He's no Irving Kaufman! And the white of one of his eyes turned black, just before he was to go to hollywood, how weird is that? I also read in the New Grove Dictonary of Jazz that he was on 3000 recordings!!!! Do yo think they meant to say 300? Chuck, you did answer a question I had on the AAJ about why Chick was listed as being on many of the tracks, but the songs had no vocals! Thanks!
