Not a fan of the Band I guess. To each his own.

Exactly.

You can make fun of I Am Woman if you wish but coinciding as it did with the rise of the women’s movement, it was an important song and inspirational for women at the time.

HBO Max doesn’t have all of TCM but they do carry a lot of foreign films and other interesting movies.

I noticed it changed but I’m not having the same reaction that you are.

Actually it’s possible her vote could have made a difference; we’ll never know.

Not necessarily. It takes four justices to grant a writ of certiorari and the vote on denying or granting cert is not disclosed.

The Supreme Court has refused to hear Spirit’s appeal.

Nice article by Tom Verducci. Bob Gibson Never Gave in. He Didn't Have to

I was able to find Black California Volume 2 on eBay a few years ago. I have volume 1 but as a record. Discogs seems to have plentiful copies of the series.

I’m not familiar with the Gibbs material but the Lovano one is terrific. It’s been years since I listened to it.

The article seems to indicate that it was at the 1960 performance, not these newly discovered performances, that she forgot the words.

One of my favorite stories is when McCarver went to the mound and Gibson told him to get out of there because the only thing he knew about pitching is that he couldn’t hit it.

Article in yesterday’s Times: The Special Place Where Ella Fitzgerald Comes Alive “The singer’s concert recordings have always had a power that her studio outings could only imply. ‘Ella: The Lost Berlin Tapes,’ a newly unearthed 1962 performance, magnifies her legacy.”

I have a lot of Red’s CDs but that would be a great Mosaic. Since it’s Concord, don’t count on it though.

This news, combined with disappointing September jobs report numbers, is going to make for a dark day on Wall Street. Stock futures have tumbled. Time to grin and bear it today.

Can this darned year get any worse. It probably can actually.

It was one of those interminable games that seemed to go and on. Frankly, I can’t seem them beating the Rays. I don’t watch a lot of AL baseball but I watched them when they played the Mets. They’re a very tight team, not a lot of great hitters, but they get the job done and they pitch well. Should be an interesting series.

Doubt it. It’s two teams. The same predictions were made when the Marlins and Cardinals had many cases but the two teams managed to play and finish their seasons and MLB had very few cases after that (so far).

Pretty unbelievable. Better safe than sorry.

Is this the RSD version?
