  1. One less to be had, just ordered mine. That was a quick move to "Last Chance" status.
  2. Kenny Burrell
  3. Buy an mp3 player leave the CDs at home.
  4. It's back in production (at least it was as of last winter). It's produced here in Chicago and can now be viewed in full HD and surround which is a nice bonus. As far as the old stuff goes I'd like to help, but I don't have any of it on tape.
  5. 30, plus multiples of select titles.
  6. A few others... Paul Desmond, Charlie Christian, Shelly Manne. If I have to pick one it's got the be Charlie.
  7. I have this LP set also. Although the booklet is thick, there's relatively little text. Should fit in a CD booklet just fine.
  8. Which part do you usually miss? The left turn? Or the left turn after that? Or the left turn after that? Or the left turn after that? Or the left turn after that? Or the left turn after that?

You certainly wouldn't want to miss a minute next week. Watkins Glen, a road course. Both left and right turns!
  9. Difford and Tilbrook Another enjoyable English songwriting duo.
  10. Teddy Wilson Mosaic I'm flying totally blind here! Relying totally on board members opinions on this one. Never heard any of this music before.
  11. Very Nice!
  12. Night & Day= White Sand (Von Freeman)
  13. Well said. I would just add that songwriters who express a wide range of emotions in their work always keep me interested.
  14. Fair enough. Maybe the real question is how do you measure the "greatness" of a songwriter?
  15. I happen to like it very much, but it ain't no Waterloo Sunset. Then again, no one is ever going to claim that Waterloo Sunset is "the" song that launched a 1000 garage bands. But there this little ditty called You Really Got Me.... You may of heard it? B-)
  16. A hip choice, but I ain't buying it. When's the last time you were walking down the street and heard someone singing a Steely Dan song? Now, Stevie Wonder on the other hand.... B-) Bob Marley anyone?
  17. Dylan & Davies tie for my vote. Others I really enjoy from the Pop/Rock tradition... Graham Parker Lowell George Paul Westerberg Todd Rundgren
  18. more like: i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i-i Details, Details!
  19. I thought that was the case. I couldn't find anything at the All Music site either. Too bad, I have a feeling it might have been an interesting pairing. Thanks Claude.
  20. Did these guys ever play together?
  21. Mingus: Complete Debut Recordings Artie Shaw: Self Portrait
  22. Joe Henderson & Kenny Dorham
  23. Thanks for the recommendations.
  24. Playing Bop is a physically demanding endeavor on the guitar. There a very few players that can do it convincingly. Their solos usually pale in comparison when compared to horn players, especially great horn players like the ones you mentioned. The stylistic rules that make up bop were made by horn players. Guitar players have always had to deal with translating them to the guitar. Check out Jimmy Rainey on Parker 51 from Stan Getz's Complete Roost Recordings. As great as Jimmy is, he can't totally keep up with the breakneck tempo that Stan solos over. I love Jimmy so no flames please. Just using this as an example to illustrate my point.
