  1. Is Goldwave free? I paid for my copy, serves as a frontend for the LAME encoder.
  2. I agree with Sidewinder, the Mingus piece Passions of a Man is great Halloween music, also the 1st minute or so of George Russell's recording of Round Midnight with Eric Dolphy. I had those two things on a loop a few years ago to great effect.
  3. Why would selling unopened discs be a problem here or anywhere?
  4. PM sent on: 57. A Handful Of Stars - Eddie Higgins - Scott Hamilton - Ken Peplowski (Venus) $7 144. Paradise Space Shuttle - George Adams Quintet (Timeless) $8 Thanks, Tom
  5. Well, I could never get myself to pull the trigger on either of the Emanon releases. I remember reading that one was in a metal container. How is the sound on Blowin Out the Cobwebs?
  6. IIRC the price on the Emanon cd's was obscene. I think Cadence had them for $90, for a two cd set. Matter of fact, they still have Blowin Out the Cobwebs, and its still $90.
  7. One of my friends had the 6 Parker Spotlight records documenting his Dial output when I was just getting into jazz. We listened to them a lot. As I recall, a nice production with decent notes. I bought the Warner Bros box set of same when it came out and I still have it. I have to say I remember liking the notes on the Spotlight set better.
  8. You might check out Amos Hoffman, Evolution, featuring oud. Also, Eric Freidlander's Broken Arm Trio featuring cello, bass and drums. Lastly, two dates by bassist Buell Neidlinger featuring his Buellgrass band, Big Day at Ojai and Swing Grass. As far as I can tell, Neidlinger has reissued some of Big Day at Ojai as a cd called Across the Tracks.
  9. At Her Majesty's Pleasure was the first CBBB lp I ever heard/owned. Picked it up on the Black Lion label while in college in the '70's. Definitely deserving of reissue.
  10. I don't own one but I have seen a unit comprised of two lucite discs with gaskets on the edges and holes in the middle that can be fixed to a record to protect record labels while cleaning. Evidently made by a guy right here in RI.
  11. Like Dan I am using my turntable mostly when digitizing an lp. Otherwise, since Father's Day I have been using an mp3 player with cassette adapter in my car which is where I do most of my listening.
  12. Oh my God, its the Happy Birthday, Tom memorial thread! Thanks one and all. Hey Sangrey, after so much anticipation I finally got a chance to hear some Iapetus yesterday, and it hit me. And I had my first Lambic Framboise last night, yummy! Oh, and AARP is sending me literature too. Oh happy day.
  13. Hey Chris, I enjoyed the 1st Jordan song, looking forward to the next.
  14. I got a copy of this when it was first issued. Some of the BeeHive lps had inserts with glossy photos which was neat and unexpected. I really wish I had gotten a BeeHive t-shirt way back when, even though there is no chance it would still fit.
  15. Thanks for this post. I think Klein is great, one of the guys I reach for on a regular basis. Glad to see he has a new disc which I will need to check out.
  16. Hi Claude, yes I saw the same info at CliffordJordan.com. So do I understand that this may never have been issued, let alone reissued?
  17. Has this date on Survival Records ever been reissued? Anyone here ever hear it?
  18. Ken, my storage is more like yours (only much smaller). The thing that really caught my eye is that the shelves fold into a closet.
  19. Check the picture here: http://www.colgatealumni.org/s/801/scene_inside_2col.aspx?sid=801&gid=1&pgid=2787 I am so jealous. The printed version had a brief article about longtime Colgate prof Dr. Blackmore who left his lp collection to the University. 17,000 pieces. I had a ball visiting his house so many years ago.
  20. I was sad to see this. Been listening to a couple Little Feat '70's broadcasts in tribute today. Vanilla grits, yeah.
  21. Happy belated birthday, Lon.
  22. There is an impressive discography at the George Coleman website: http://www.georgecoleman.com/discography_frame_index.html He's also someone who has been pretty available on roio recordings from the last 35 years or so. Count me as another who actually prefers Miles w/Coleman to Miles w/Shorter. Another landmark date George was on is Maiden Voyage. JSangry, how are those Elvin Jones records on Honeydew?
  23. I came across this link after a google search for 1369 Jazz Club: http://www.meredithwells.com/B_BlackandWhite/JazzCals.htm I saw a couple of shows at the 1369. I think its fascinating to see who was coming to what was otherwise a little neighborhood bar.
  24. Can I sign up for 2011?
