  1. I visited the Lincoln Center site many, many times. Always a treat and so much great stuff. Times Obituary

    I hate to use the term but that just sounds too politically correct or overly parsing words. If you don't like something there's nothing wrong with being honest and saying so.
  3. Haven’t listened to the Turrentine set for awhile but as others have said, it’s worth it to pick it up.
  4. I haven’t looked on there for books recently. If it’s a rare book perhaps. For newer books, I prefer Amazon or Barnes and Noble’s eBay store. I have had mixed success with smaller booksellers.
  5. Be careful of phishing emails allegedly coming from Apple. I’ve received a few of those.

    What’s the old saw: bad publicity is better than none. This thread got people to check her out. I saw from her concert tour she’s appearing with the Rippingtons in Pennsylvania. Not something I’d pay money for.
  7. I emailed Scott today, asking about the Open House and he replied that things are fine; they’re just cleaning house and getting things out of their storage facility they really don’t need.

    My sense when reading the first page of this thread this morning was similar to RT’s, something like you guys are being unduly picky. If the complaint that her playing is mainstream and just playing standards or whatever and staying in a certain style, I suppose that is true but I’m sure a lot of people play like that.

    Hadn't heard of her so i went to listen to a couple of her songs on You Tube. Seemed ok to me. Georgia on My Mind wasn't bad.
  10. End of an era. Hopefully not but probably. I have many of the Uptown releases and always looked forward to them. They were like mini Mosaics. RIP.
  11. Do they own it or rent it? I'd be surprised if they own it; ties up a lot of capital.
  12. I live about an hour and a half away and will be going. However, this I worrisome. Obviously, they need to raise cash.
  13. Haven't tackled it yet but thanks for the heads up. About halfway through this.
  14. Curtis Amy, Pacific Jazz Piano Trios and one I’d never thought I’d like, the Boogie Woogie set.
  15. Thanks. Enjoyed it.
  16. Thank you Dan. His memory lives on.
  17. I looked at this issue a few years ago. Traditionally, those rights died with the person but in recent years a few states have extended those rights to their legal representatives. One that comes to mind is Tennessee because of the Elvis Presley Estate.
  18. If the brewery didn’t have the right to us Monk’s likeness, I fail to see how they can prevail.
  19. I read the interview and I didn’t see anything referring to Billy Byers.
  20. Sounds interesting. I’ve picked up Mary Beard’s SPQR but haven’t tackled it yet.
