  1. Me and a friend of mine use to watch this all the time. I loved the father character & Ross the stage hand. "Don't-don't encourage him." I had a crush on Christine McGlade. I wrote to her once and got sent vital facts on the cast (height, hair color). I was surprised and saddened to find she was about 7 years older than me. Though she actually wrote a PS on the note. I asked if she like The Psychedelic Furs (first 3 albums are the good ones) and she wrote her favorite song was "India" from "the black album" (first album). Wonder what Moose is lookin' like now.
  2. Has anyone else gotten this? I've recently gotten into Mingus & liked what I've heard, but I really didn't care for anything on this 12 cd box. I didn't realize it was mostly him as a session player. I've read his musical personality was still forming during 1951-55. I've got the Bethlehem, Atlantic & Columbia boxes and liked them all. If you have this, how do you feel about it?
  3. Is there a live version of SOA w/ Prime Time? Is there a live version at all? Looking to get a copy.
  4. When listening to a mono cd (in this case), what's the difference in the sound compared to stereo?
  5. I've been buying everything used. EAT IT RECORD COMPANIES!!!
  6. There's a couple of complete live Parker sets coming out this month (?). I saw them on the Jazzmatazz site.
  7. Some more for May 19th: George Auld *1919 Sonny Fortune *1939 Cecil McBee *1935 Tom Scott *1948
  8. May 19, 1969: Coleman Hawkins died the day I was born My best friend shares Miles Davis's b-day: May 25th
  9. Douglas Adams: Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency and The Long Dark Tea Time Of The Soul-also a Dirk Gently book. Very funny. The first one seems like two different stories. It's interesting how he tied them together.
  10. There's a song on Miles Davis's "Someday My Prince Will Come" called "Teo" that Coltrane played on and one part sounds just like "Ole". This was just 2 months before Coltrane recorded it. I think this may ne where the idea for the song came from.

    Norah Jones

    P. Diddy. That way her next album can be all covers and be called "No Jo".
  12. I'm talking about in terms of his compositions. I don't have any Messengers or his solo stuff, though I do have the Miles 1965-68 set. I think I'm definetly going to start getting some Messengers albums, but was wondering about his solo albums.
  13. Miles Davis. I didn't like his muted trumpet sound or his stuff with Gil Evans or Birth Of The Cool when I first heard it. What happened was the part in Burns's History of Jazz where they show the 2nd quintet playing Gingerbread Boy (I believe), I thought that riff was so cool. A friend of mine had a radio sampler of the box set with that song on it. I liked everything on it so I slowly went further. After I realized his muted trumpet sound was as annoying as I first thought, I opened myself up to all his stuff (up to 1975, I'm not going to bother with the 80's stuff). Now I can't wait till all the box sets are out! I dislike that box #3 (1963-64) will be the last one as I've been recreating the original albums on tape for my car, and can't go any further until that box is out. Ornette Coleman & Prime Time. It's the same idea as his acoustic stuff, just electric. I liked Body Meta because it was so crazy.
