i usually get my criss cross cds from buy.com. 12.98, with free shipping on orders over $25. in addition, you can frequently find coupons online that bring the price down even lower.

while we're on the subject, let's not forget this offensive bit o' quackery:

thanks, but i need more than just speakers (cd/mp3, receiver, etc.).

right now, i have a small office that needs a new, inexpensive sound system (hopefully i'll be moving on in a few months to someplace bigger and better). i was wondering if anyone owns or has heard one of teac's ultra thin mini stereo systems. the current model is the MC-DX20B, which i found for under $120: and here's an earlier model, the CDX9. i can get a refurbished one for $90. i'm not looking for audiophile quality sound from such a small, inexpensive rig. on the other hand, i don't want something that sounds like crap. any thoughts?

not to detract from anderson's accomplishments, but he was only one of four men who played clarabell on televsion. the first was bob keeshan, who later went on to become captain kangaroo. then there was henry mclaughlin, who was replaced by bobby nickelson. anderson was the last to play the honking, seltzer-squirting clown.

you could use to lose a few posts, ya big fatty! I'm afraid of becoming a newbie. i think you'll probably need some of this stuff to become a newbie again.

since this was available as a japanese import, perhaps mr. tanno can find you a copy. you can email him at hiroshi@earlyrecords.com.

follow this link to the amg listing for murphy's album midnight mood. this 1967 recording appears to have been reissued as an import in 1995. there are used copies available from some amazon marketplace sellers for under $9 here: amazon

I believe Griff appears on three tracks: Fair Weather, Hotel 49, & Blue Thoughts.

i've been enjoying the "young pianists orgy" during the past few days. it ends at 1pm est today.

i know mark and jazzkrow are in nyc this week, but how about you other guys that attended the symphony hall concert? how was it?

i guess this one is a true "hard-to-find" item. this was my second unsuccessful attempt to find a copy of this title on the board and on the net. so, i thought i'd let you all to know that i received a cdr of this recording from jack wilkins himself. what a great guy, and a great guitar player!

i hope someone gives him the opportunity to record the big band. i've seen them perform twice in the past year or so, and i'd love to hear a well-rehearsed recording that brings out the intricacies of his wonderful compositions and arrangements.

recently, i've been enjoying the 24bit remasters of some great black lion titles that were reissued on the 1201 music label a few years ago. many of these reissues are available from cybermusicsurplus.com, the clearance site for music distributed by allegro. currently, they cost only $5.50 each, with free shipping on orders over $50. here are some of the titles they have: stitt, sonny - autumn in new york gordon, dexter - body and soul chaloff, serge - fable of mable webster, ben - gone with the wind sun ra janus konitz, lee - lee konitz at storyville pettiford, oscar - montmartre blues sims, zoot/brookmeyer, bob - morning fun byas, don - night in tunisia, a gray, wardell - one for prez smith, willie "the lion" - pork and beans green, grant - reaching out brand, dollar - reflections bechet, sidney - sidney bechet at storyville sun ra - standards grappelli, stephane - stardust art ensemble of chicago - the spiritual webster, ben - there is no greater love hines, earl - tour de force

i usually refrain from commenting on things psychiatric on the board because everyone has their own opinion, and my clinical expertise is not what's usually needed. however, your statements are so blatantly wrong and offensive to individuals who are dealing with major mental illness, that i felt the need/right to respond. this will be my last post on the subject, so here it goes: simplify? narrow categorization? i don't see how clarifying an incorrect diagnosis does that. your label of biploar disorder is no broader or more complex. and an attack on the field of psychology and psychiatry is just a play to the crowd. why don't you tell it to tom crusie. i'm sure he'll listen. no, i'm not bipolar. for that matter, i'm not schizophrenic or agoraphobic, and i'm not a survivor of incest or a host of other experiences that can contribute to emotional disturbance. yet that hasn't prevented me from correctly diagnosing, and in many cases, successfully treating people who are/have, with empathy. prozac and other ssri's are antidepressants. although they are often (but not always) used in treating bipolar disorder, they are prescribed in conjunction with a mood stabilizer. again, complaining about the excessive use of a medication has no place in our disagreement. by the way are you a scientologist? that might explain your ranting. harrell took the drug stelazine for many years after his first psychotic break around the age of 18 (a very common experience for those who later become schizophrenic). then he switched to zyprexa. several years ago, he started taking seroquel. these are all antipsychotic medications, the first line of defense in treating the main symptoms of schizophrenia. it would not surprise me to learn that he also takes an antidepressant, as many people with a severe, chronic mental illness develop depressive features. i have seen no evidence that he takes a mood stabilizer, which would indicate that he experiences labile mood states (the hallmark of bipolar disorder). btw, someone with severe mania might sometimes be prescribed an antipsychotic agent in conjunction with a mood stabilizer, but never alone. congratulations! you must be quite proud of the fact that you can properly diagnosis a complex, chronic mental illness by simply watching someone on stage. i guess i'm a dolt. i had to go to college, graduate school, and spent 20 years in the field to achieve the same level of success as you. all sarcasm aside, i have no doubt you feel a great amount of care and respect for tom harrell. that's obvious by the passionate language you use in your argument. perhaps you felt my correction was a personal attack against him, or even against yourself. if that's so, i'm sorry. that was not my intention. however, your insistence that "most people with this condition accomplish nothing with their lives" is more disrespectful than anything i might have said. finally, if you still feel you're right and i'm wrong on this subject, why don't you do a google search. harrell's schizophrenia is well-documented. if you do a similar search using the key words "tom harrell" and "bipolar," i believe you will get nothing that supports your claim.

harrell does not suffer from bipolar disorder. he has schizophrenia, which is altogether different. also, your statement that anyone who knows about severe bipolar knows that most people with this condition accomplish nothing with their lives is erroneous. i have worked with a great many individuals who have this condition who lead rewarding and productive lives. furthermore, a short list of accomplished people who coped with their bipolar disorder (or manic depression) include rosemary clooney, dick cavett, jonathan winters, peter gabriel, ted turner...

i won't waste money on a dna test, since i'm pretty sure of my ancestry.

so why don't you ask for a refund? you can offer to buy them when they are back in stock, if you wish. it can't hurt to ask.

the fact is, cd hut doesn't suck. i have purchased several titles from them and have been completely satsified. that being said, i think the situation you are experiencing is unfortunate. imo they should offer to cancel the transaction and let you know when the titles are back in stock should you wish to buy them later.
