...another of Dewey.

...all photos mail. Here are a couple others looking for a good home. Dewey Redman...at the now defunct Jazz Showcase.

I think they will be ok but any team.....EVEN the Patriots would not fare well with 6 or more starters out at the same time. The Colts have played 6 games in the past 31 days...which is an issue as well. Despite the two losses, they are basically 10 poorly played minutes vs. the Pats and a missed field goal away from being 11-0....but shit happens. They now have nine days before their next game....a little time for the guys to heal a bit....looking forward to December! m~

I'll see Lonnie with Fareed Haque in a couple weeks.....now that will be a killer show! m

...and what is a "sneaky cigarette"?

Indictment, inschmitement....you still gotta prove it. Good luck with that. And now, you're going to see all of the evidence that he used steroids and then lied about it. I hope you're prepared, and also prepared to eat crow to all of the people here that you annoyed to no end with your nonsensical assertions. I hope you're ready to take it in the shorts when Bonds is exhonerated. Besides, I have always maintained that if Barry Bonds was proven guilty of taking steroids then I would be the first to admit it. And, even if he did, they do not make you see the ball better and they do not cause you to hit HRs. Further, if found guilty, I want a full scale investigation of any baseball player who holds a record or a place in the HOF. Otherwise, it is and was and ever will be a media lynching and federal witch hunt. ....here we go again!

I've seen them in the past 2 years together but I would agree they have spent more time playing apart than together for a while....not sure why other than maybe Lonnie wants to bring his own band on the road? m

...going from 1-10 in 2006 to 19-8 in 2007 is certainly a big turn around! m~

Michael Wolff Friday night, Stefon Harris on Saturday and Mel Rhyne next Wednesday.....Roy Hargrove followed by Dr. Lonnie Smith/Fareed Haque later this month! m~

I had planned on attending all days of it but I swear the airline rates were climbing before my eyes. By the time I was done with airline/hotel, it was just crazy so I cancelled. I was looking forward to seeing William Claxton with B. Shank and Dennis Hopper.. Sad to miss it but literally, I found an airline/hotel package...hit the submit button and it says....this is no longer available as airline costs have risen....right before my eyes . If you've never been to the Getty....worth the trip out to LA just for it! m~

I am not rooting for the CHEATERS in NE !

I've been to a couple events where Arthur was selling his books. He had a ton of them, many I had never seen...some that were still available from various sources and not that tough to find were a little overpriced. m

Another good place but not in the loop is Groovin' High Records on Belmont. Decent used jazz selection and the owner is a good guy! Mark~ Groovin' High Records 1047 W. Belmont Ave., Chicago Tel: (773) 476-6846 Do you place all your records into plastic baggies—treating each one like it is a delicate vinyl piece of communal history? If so, this is your record store. It is obvious that no matter how common or obscure a record is here, they all receive the same (abundant) amount of tender care. You’ll find the records meticulously organized by category and alphabetically. Unlike many independent record stores, you won't find a few 'R's mixed with the 'T's or a stray Willie Nelson album under R&B. With all the doubles stashed behind the counter, you're able to flip through the records in half the time. It's not overpriced in any way, but Groovin' is also not a place where you'll find a Towns Van Zandt original for 50 cents. The selection covers a decent variety of genres, though the jazz and blues sections are the largest. Even though the man behind the counter has a long, graying beard, the kind that makes you think he's only interested in hawking Dead albums, he'd be also be happy to sell you a new record from LCD Sound System ($16.99) or Brian Jonestown Massacre's Bravery Repetition Noise ($19.99). Don't forget to take a visual trip to the past by purchasing a VHS tape. All movies cost less than $5 (including a copy of Drug Store Cowboy that I grabbed for $2.99).

agreed!

...going to see Fareed Haque tonight, Jim Snidero tomorrow night and my sister is in town from St. Louis...so hanging with her a bit. Also will cut the lawn....hopefully for the last time in 2007 and try to relax a little!!! m

Happy Birthday....hope it was a goon one! BTW, Quick Silver Messenger Service may have been the first band I ever saw live!!!

Hi Paul....certainly not wishing for a 19-0 season but have a GREAT Birthday!

I missed the party; hope it was a good one!

I always thought he was just Okeh! ......good one!

PMs sent to all interested parties! First batch of prints to go out on Wednesday. Thanks! Mark~

....Vonski, Yusef and Junior Mance in Chicago...

....Another Indianaian checking in! Yours truly with Joe Wilder! I'm the one on the right! m~

...one never knows but I'm saying....

...Roscoe Mitchell at the recently closed Hot House in Chicago.
