    Goodbye Astrud

    RIP. She was uniquely Brasilian through and through even though she didn’t spend a lot of time in Brasil later on. I happened to be living in São Paulo when the song came out, which, ironically, was right around the time the military overthrew Joao Goulart. I remember both events well (although the coup d’etat a bit more vividly).
  3. And probably 24. Mets ownership didn’t feel the reward was worth the risk and, sadly, they were right.
  4. Thanks for the information Justin.
  5. Thanks. I compared the first two with the equivalent of the Hollywood Star Sessions and looks to be the same so since since I have the earlier box I will stick with that.
  6. Well, that’s why he was an effective manager although you’re right he was a bit more than that. However, he did have to manage and satisfy his bosses as well as the commanders under him, which were not just Americans but British. Andrew Roberts wrote a good book about this, called Masters and Commanders.
  7. This is the first I’ve heard that Omnivore re-issued the Hollywood All Star Sessions since the right to these were owned by Fantasy, which is now owned by Concord. Did you intend to refer to the Artist House Recordings, which Omnivore issued a couple of years ago. If not, do you have a link.
  8. He struck me as more a manager than a brilliant tactician. Moreover, he wasn’t a great President and on top of that his failure to do anything to stop McCarthy, especially when McCarthy took on George C. Marshall was shameless.
  9. People could easily see what you had originally said. Quoting part of a person’s quote is a common practice. I’ve seen it here, Hoffman and bunch of other places but if you felt it was taken out of context to create an erroneous impression, my apologies.
  10. Mariano is sold.
  11. Just added several more.
  12. Mariano is on hold. I will be listing more tomorrow.

    RIP Tina Turner

    Same here.
  14. I have a few of them and have had no sonic issues but $40 or so is more than I want to spend if I have the cd equivalent As others have mentioned it’s a personal choice. Other companies have theirs priced around the same so it’s the industry standard. Rhino is issuing an audiophile of Coltrane’s Sound at the same price.
  15. King Power, while significant, was never the size of the “Kings of Araby” that own Man City. I only hope the Premier League make the charges stick.
  16. It’s incredible to think that Leicester was only champion a few short years ago. That championship was once in a lifetime thing. With the money presently awash in football, a small team winning a title is inconceivable.
