  1. ...not really much worse than the Mingus bands....but tight indeed! m~
  2. I often go to work naked but no one notices because I use the spray as well!
  3. Et voila! Click on Ecouter for samples! Thanks Brownie, you're a good man!
  4. This weekend marks the end of Joe Segal's Jazz Showcase ....at least at the current location. The last shows are on New Year's eve, featuring Henry Johnson's Organ Express (w/Chris Foreman on the b3 and Greg Rockingham on drums) and Fathead Newman (new years eve only). I plan to attend both shows as this has been my home away from home for several years and I can't miss it. I know Joe and Wayne are searching for a new location but as I spoke with Joe a week or so ago....nothing in place at this time. I know of at least one benefit show to be held at the Auditorium on 3/1 with many big names. It's pretty pricey to move into a new place and revamp it prior to opening so I'm sure there may be a few benefits along the way! If any other members will be there....drop me a pm! m~
  5. ....any sound clips available?
  6. Fred does rule!!!

  12. ...and while out to lunch today, I redeemed my Borders rewards $$$ plus a small gift certificate and a 30% off coupon and picked up the Dexter Gordon 11 cd "Complete Prestige Recordings" for $24.00 out of pocket ($140.00 retail). m~
  13. Frank Capra was mad at his attorney, and never got around to signing the forms which would allow him to extend the copyright. So the film fell into public domain. Once it was in P.D., it was free to everyone, and all the TV stations showed it all the time. It is my opinion that this P.D. exposure is the reason for the film's popularity. I'm not commenting on its quality. There are a lot of good movies that aren't as popular. I say that it became popular because it was aired so often, and became a Christmas staple on US televison. Then a court ruled that although under some circumstances a movie can go into public domain, the copyright of the music and soundtrack is covered by a different law. This ruling in effect meant that TV stations could show the video for free but not the audio. So the movie effectively went back into copyright. It was then that NBC bought the exclusive right to show it on TV. And NBC shows it only once or twice a year. I don't know when NBC's contract expires. I also don't know when the movie goes into P.D. again in the US - probably the same 75 years as for audio recordings. edit for typo I thought it was Ted Turner who boughts the rights??? m~

  15. I would agree with Chuck on this ( ). I think the Grammys have been a joke for a long time (maybe forever)....If I means something to Ornette, that's cool but watching these award shows just make me cringe..........! m~
