  1. Now on Netflix, and highly recommended. Can't say that I've ever really dug into her records, but this film is not about records, it's about (a) life, and as such proved to be rather intensely compelling.
  2. Kaliman The Kalin Twins Kali Uchis
  3. J. Crew Bob Crewe The Girls For Whom That Music Was Made By Which To Watch Them
  4. Farmer Alfalfa Tammy Grimes Jan and Dean
  5. Frankie Carle Brother Ah Paul Bley
  6. The Roots ?uestlove The Mysterians
  7. Wow, I went looking on YouTube asking myself, yeah, Jimmy Rowles, quirky is the word, but still, it's a Julie London album it can't be that quirky, nevermind surreal, but...uh...yes it can be, and yes it is. That's, like, every First Herd rudeness impulse rolled into one and then quieted down for, yes, a Julie London album. Didn't see that one coming, but it's on the way now, so, good looking out, Larry, gracias beaucoup. (but Georgie Auld? Did Auld go through a Jug phase? Obviously not Jug, of course, but those downward slurbends sure resonate in a Jug-style way)
  8. For those who need it, the site address is http://www.nessarecords.com
  9. Red & Black is simply wondermous, it only gets as good as that, never better.
  10. Spiral Staircase The 13th Floor Elevators Nat Stuckey
  11. Cheetah Bob Kuban Bobby Inman
  12. Joe Ely Bud Freeman Boss Tweed
  13. Much overlap with the Mosaic, but some crucial non-overlaps. Ultimately, both are needed if you're going to need it at all. Desmond's playing here is of a piece, elegantly slacking (in a non-malicious way) except when it goes up a notch, and when it does that, you don't see it coming until he's already well there. And the date with Mulligan has long been a Fun Favorite. The real ear-catcher this time around was Jim Hall as both soloist, but especially as comper. Between these dates and the ones with Sonny, there's a whole Jim Hall legacy on RCA, some truly outstanding music of substance. Hello, Jim Hall on RCA, ears the size of everything and everything bigger than that, with instincts to match and chops to let it flow. And oh by the way, Bossa Antigua for some reason really, really zoned me for some reason. A cut above!
  14. Test.
  15. Will there be another backup before attempting another update? If not, I suggest that nobody post anything really important to either themselves or the rest of the world until the desired outcome re:new board software has been finalized. Until then:
  16. Per Jim A the last backup of the database was "early morning, June 21st" and as far as I can see, what has been restored here reflects that.
  17. Probably not finished...new is v.4 this is back to v.3... So keep waiting before going nuts again.
  18. Or still working on it?
  19. No worries, I came for the savings. The cardboard just sounded like bonus fun if it happened.
  20. Attribution not required, context not really needed. Just phrases that speak to you as language as well as "point", phrases that work far past the immediate speaking. The nuanced language of lack of effort.
  21. otoh, one who was alive 60 years ago but not 150 should be commended for using the word "seems" in a way that carries a personally verifiable weight.
  22. German 1-Click got pretty weird for some reason, 1-Click took a lot more than one click, trust in translator engines still not heartfelt, but screw it, harder work for a better price and heavier cardboard is a deal I make any day.
  23. Yeah, ok, see - stereo: vs Mono: Mono, FTW. Unless those are Paul Desmond's legs, in which case, I do not want to know about it.
