Something going around in the area. I've been suffering from something similar since Sunday.

I got the Hill, Mclean, Ervin, and Quebec cds today. The Mclean is as good as anything else he's ever done. Nice Woody Shaw on the Ervin date. Excellent Andrew Hill. Getting used to the old time organ sound on Ike's 45s. Pretty good batch, I'd say. How the heck did Blue Note ever decide to keep that Jackie Mac hidden in the vaults?

Joe, try not to blow Scofield out of the club/theater... (My money is on Joe)

You know, with the letters in GregN you can almost spell renege! ←

Shhh! Don't look now but the man has just entered the house.

SS1, when you going to update this sucka?

...unless you are Greg N. offering it; and the glass will disappear just as I'm about to grab it with both hands!

That'll do!

Please don't. I want to get as much mileage out of this as possible...

hehe...corrected. Paul...will you please buy me a drink?

The one on the left, bigboy. I needed the money. ← Didja promise him/her a drink too, then welsh on it in the end?

All I know is he promised to buy me a drink at Baker's then didn't show up!

Happy Birthday to our Brazilian friend.

BNBB former member here as well. We checked out a couple of false trails before arriving here. I basically followed Catesta around, as far as where to go. I remember him stretching free-speech rights when he posted girlie pics at one of the first boards we checked out.

It's Patton's second best. "Got a good thing goin'" is his best. Both are great, of course.

Lousy week so far for me. That Tennessee pick was pulled out of my ass this morning on a whim. Pretty stupid. I really had no special feelings that Indy would be upset.

We're all bundled up close in the standings. Plenty of weeks left. It's still anybody's ballgame.

Sorry for the delay, SS1. My kid monopolizes the computer so I just chased him off. I'm getting these picks off before the games start: JACKSONVILLE TAMPA BAY CINCINNATI KANSAS CITY NEW ENGLAND (Almost tempted to go with San Diego, but you can't go against the Pats) WASHINGTON NY GIANTS BALTIMORE DALLAS ATLANTA ARIZONA NEW ORLEANS CAROLINA (42 points) Upset special of the week... TENNESSEE over Indy. (Can't stay on top by being conservative)

I'm holding back my picks until SS1 updates the standings.

"Sunshine Superman" is a killer track. Worth it for that one alone. Greazy for sure.

live recording? Wow! I've definitely got to be there. I knew I'd eventually become famous one way or the other!...might as well have a few beers in me when it happens!

Me and the fellows are planning to see O again at Baker's in October. Maybe Greg can finally get me that drink he promised...

I did, Paul, but you have written much better zingers than that...

A good description of Charlie Rose.

They should fire Earthwind. Get it? ← I'd just quietly suggest that the young man consider an alternative profession.
