I’ve used ChatGPT to spruce up verbiage I’ve already written. Yesterday I asked ChatGPT what dates Ben Webster was with Duke Ellington in 1949 and was told his time with Duke ended in 1943.

Reptet, Chicken or Beef? Does their drummer ever post here anymore?

On the fence with this as I have more than half already. I used to think Sanders take on Sam Cook’s You Send Me would a good BFT track but everyone would recognize that sax sound.

Is Keno Duke’s Sense of Values a candidate for this reissue series?

Lester Young, The “Kansas City Sessions”, Commodore. Ooo, Lester on clarinet.

It’s a head scratcher, hard to believe Dallas couldn’t have gotten two starters and some picks for Luka. From what I read Doncic is less than fully engaged on conditioning, now he’ll have LeBron as a role model. As to how screwed Doncic is by missing a super max deal, I don’t think he needs to worry about money, the super max is worth a 5% bump.

Looking for this Uptown release. Should have jumped when it was issued. Hoping to do a little better than the 29.99 copy currently available on Amazon. Also have plenty to trade. Thanks.

Don’t know if this has any bearing but I believe the surname Xiques is pronounced hickus.

Good catch on the Sam Rivers song title, spell check let me down (of course it would since the word was capitalized). As to Purple People Eater, I was 2 when it was released but an aunt of mine had the 45 and I heard it a lot as a small child at her house.

Also, the blurb doesn’t mention Lucky Thompson, there oughta be a law.

Sure, I think if you’ve got individual records worth more than, say, $100 probably somewhere around 30-40%. If you’ve got a lot of records of lesser value, probably 25% of what might see as sold online. As I mentioned above, I’ve sold several original Blue Notes with my local guy at auction and got 50%, one was Curtis Fuller, which went for just under $500 another was Mobley’ Roll Call that went for about $1100. I got half and I was happy with that.
I’d be curious what others here think.

What’s fair is what you are willing to accept. With access to discogs, popsike and eBay no one here should be in the dark about some estimate of value. Also, I don’t think there are many people getting rich off of selling physical product. There’s a store near me that I’ve patronized over many years. If I’ve got something worth auctioning I bring it to him and he gets 50% of the final eBay price. He pays all the fees etc and he also has 20 plus years of selling on eBay so buyers are more likely to buy from him than they are from me.

I’m 67 and, uh, thanks for depressing me. Back to regular programming…

Thanks Lon, I’ve had Hillbilly Jazz since it was cutout in the late 1970’s. Good stuff.

Thinking of things such as Tony Rice covering 4 on 6, The Waybacks covering Scrapple From the Apple, or David Grismsn playing Naima. Can you suggest other examples I’m not familiar with? Thanks.

Starting with good beans and grinding just before brewing are, I think, more important than brewing method. I mostly pour over but I recently borrowed a nondescript coffee maker for a brunch and was pleasantly surprised with the results. I also try to consume any purchased beans within 30 days of the date roasted.

I have the Bird set, as far as I know most if not all of it has been available in other issues. Peter Losin’s website has a complete listing of the material along with other info (limited to 300 sets etc). I bought mine from Cadence, it arrived with damage to the box but not the records, from what Cadence told me their sets were all damaged.
i also had the Bud Powell set which had a more lavish production. I eventually gave to a friend had given me lots of unissued stuff through the years. I ended up with mostly corresponding cds.

Thanks for the heads up.

Celtic fan since the 1960’s when I listened under the covers with a transistor radio. Thrilled with the changes to this year’s team. OTOH, this core better be good enough because they will be in cap jail when they extend Jrue Holiday. I can hardly believe I don’t miss Marcus Smart.
What are your thoughts about/Interactions with AI?

Thanks @rostasi, I knew Webster had been back with Duke in 1948 and 1949, I was just noting that AI whiffed on that one.
