emailed you about the raney cd.

have you ever heard sahib shihab's souful version of silent night on the an uptown christmas compilation? i think this kind of arrangement might be a good one for the band. and of course, there's always the sultry santa baby.

a heads up to our friends in and around beantown. my brother tom (the one who earned a special place in heaven for introducing me to jazz 30 years ago) just told me about this upcoming concert at wellesley college in wellesley, ma this saturday night: Saturday, November 5, 8pm Jimmy Heath Jazz Quartet Jimmy Heath, saxophone Jeb Patton, piano Paul West, bass Albert “Tootie” Heath, drums it's being held at Jewett Auditorium (also referred to as the Jewett Arts Center). and guess what: it's free! here's a link to the college's music dept.: wellesley college concert series

a sad state of affairs, especially considering where you live.

that's how much you get for store credit, not cash? ouch! are you sure that's not because the cd features al diarrhea, i mean dimeola?

i'm not sure why you decided to begin your ebay selling experience with this particular disc. i'm not commenting on the quality of the music. it's just that it's readily available and not a valuable title. you probably could have gotten $4 in trade at your local used cd store. then you'd save yourself the trouble of shipping it, paying ebay their fees, paying the paypal transaction fee, etc.

one for all is performing that weekend at smoke. definately worth the visit in my book.

here's a previous thread on the subject: christmas jazz

not as good a deal as i reported 2 years ago, but this site has a year's subscription to downbeat for $17.97: magazinevalues.com

maybe you can get them directly from the artist: daniele@dagaro.it.

uzed, it's not so much a matter of right or wrong. if you're really looking for opinions on these titles, as you stated in your initial post, then i think the recommendations forum might be a good place to get you're looking for. then again, technically one could say you could go to the "looking for" forum. aaahhh!

why is that? the title of this forum is artists, not jazz artists. what's more, the forum is under the heading of general music in the place to discuss the band, jazz, and more! i say, let her stay!

one of my all-time favorites for relaxing: rich, beautiful, contemplative. absolutely essential for all coleman fans.

my opinion is that this thread doesn't belong in the artists forum. you'll get better responses in the recommendations forum or the miscellaneous music forum.

it was reissued in 1994. it pops up now and then in the used stores, but you can get a digital download now from an ebay seller for under $20 if you don't want to wait.

thanks for the input. sounds like one i can pass on.

so i take it that nobody here owns it or has heard it?

why am i skeptical about this claim?

she ain't that bad, especially when you consider the competition. still, i wish she'd lose the star search histrionics. maybe that will come with age.

ah-ha! so this is where the anal-retentives are hanging out. only kidding guys!

The usual arrogance when threads like this one pop up? ← arrogance: overbearing pride evidenced by a superior manner toward inferiors. i'm feeling neither proud nor superior, i just don't like their music and never did. deal with it, it's called personal taste.
