If I were from the town of Bradford I'd be feeling very put-upon by now.

Helluva recommendation!

Now the town of Mount Shasta...THAT fucking place gets me high.

I've been to the town of Weed and found it not notably intoxicating.

Gives whole new meaning to the term "treehugger."

What sessions does he drum on?

Forget the themes. His underscore for the I-Spy series is amazing. Yes! A few years ago I got a bunch of the I-Spy DVD's and thought the show held up remarkably well, particularly the music.

He composed the themes for The Dick Van Dyke Show, The Andy Griffith Show, That Girl, The Mod Squad, and (perhaps most amazing of all)...I Spy! (When I was in first grade I absolutely lived for that show!)

I'll remember him mainly for Star Trek and The Waltons. RIP

Excellent show. But I thought there were only 5 seasons...I must have missed a few!

Just checking to see how far into the thread it took to get to my least favorite; thanks Lon! "Well if that's Neil Pert, he couldn't drum his way out of a paper bag!" ---Mr. Weir

Same here.

"My son the jazz musician."

There's not going to be much ANYONE can do about the price of oil though.

Sad news indeed. It's been fun over the years to occasionally see him pop up here and there in movies. Most recently he had a brief appearance in Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Will always like him as the director of Three Days of the Condor.

Congratulations Shawn! Glad you're moving where you want to be. I've heard a lot of great thing about Austin. Best of luck!! :tup

Yankee. But then it said "Barely into the Yankee category." How dare they?

now there's someone who started his own style of Jazz. Now I know why the team is named the "Utah Jazz"....it all makes sense.

Of all the places I've lived, Boston is easily my favorite. It's expensive as HELL, though. If I could afford it, I'd move back in a heartbeat. Same here. I regret moving to this shithole. Are you serious? I mean, it's not like SF doesn't have its faults (annoying public transit, less than perfect jazz scene, no real summer, hippies) but I'd rather live here than 99% of America. Seriously tongue-in-cheek. I agree with you on the 99% thing, but it's no Boston. No summer? No FALL; no real SEASONS period! Lack of bookstores, shitty PBS affiliate, lack of trees, lousy library system...jazz scene, did you say? What jazz scene? I could go on, but I don't have all day. (And yet, the real estate here still costs MORE than Boston...go figure.)

Lauren Ambrose? What's her claim to fame?

Dave Tough---the Ringo of jazz drummers.

Somebody's always gotta kick Ringo. I think he was great.

I question that.
