  1. As a Bach record, ok, yes, creepy. But as a Rhodes record, hey, interesting idea, and depending on execution, a way cool one. Now, that "Switched On Bach" thing, that didn't work for me either way. But I never could got all acid-fetalistic with a Moog like I could with a Rhodes. So, there is interest here.
  2. Pros outweigh the cons a this time, imo. I like not having to click on something that's not there, much less order it. It also shows, I would guess, that they're inching towards real-time inventory listings, which I think overall benefits all.
  3. There was a time when he didn't have any savings, dead broke, used to take "personal appearance" gigs, a hundred bucks to show up at a party and pretend to be an invited guest, a "friend" of the host. I'm of the impression that the man had no good business sense whatsoever about what to do with his money after he made it. None. So, 18K is something of a pleasant surprise, really.

  6. We need a book, not a tome. A real book that gives broader context and scholarly researchful insight. If it's real, it can be quantified, and since jazz influence is being posited as being in fact being real, it is time for science to step up to the spotlight and do its thing for the benefit of humankind now. And if fails - then this whole "jazz influence" thing has just been a misperceived romanticized perception of a quantifiable social behavioral and/or phenomenon. That too, then, should be written as a book, lest there be debate about facts. We need a book. Now more than ever, before this thing gets out of hand.
  7. 12" came to be the norm for longer classical works, correct? 4-5 min/side is their capacity. My uncle had this one, first 12" 78 I had ever seen.
  8. Great cover, but the music is the type that 10-15 years go by and I say, hey, I should listen to this again, and then I do, and then I say, I should listen to this more often, and then 10-15 years go by and, hello, here we are again.
  9. The cover still has an impulse! logo on it, correct?
  10. We need for somebody to write a book about this.

  14. Won't dleete, but will link & close thread. Don't want any diminution of attention to a worthy cause.
  15. This being Bill Evans on Verve, I had planned on listening to it in my car, maybe with even the top down. So...should I plan on driving in reverse if it sounds bad under those conditions? I just wanted some ok music at a cheap price, I didn't want to have to relearn how to drive, Should I ask for a refund once it gets here? If so, how does that work in Italian, because I'm getting bombarded (literally!) with Amazon emails in Italian, and I'm like, uh, perhaps not, please? Also, Texas not being a particularly forward looking state in any regard except legal driving position, should I stick to the toll roads, figuring that I might have a shot at the "hey, I'm paying for this drive, I can go any damn way I want to, this is TEXAS Your Honor!!!!!" argument in court and hope that my cry of desperation-induced personal liberty violations is taken seriously? I should note at this point that I do not have money to pay for an expensive attorney, just a cheap amazon.it Bill Evans Verve box. So all directives should be framed accordingly, please.

    Oregon (the band)

    It sounds like it might not have ever happened if they both hadn't been signed to Vanguard at the time... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NX07s5DXIU0 I mean, that's pretty good, really, but it could totally have happened without Elvin. Thanks, Jim; I really enjoyed that. I disagree that "it could totally have happened without Elvin" - this track has a harder edge and an insistent groove that Oregon wasn't doing. He drives them more into a Yusef Lateef area. It's great that Collin Walcott, accompanying Elvin, sounds more like a Ray Barretto on one of Lou Donaldson's records. Very nice. Didn't meant that Elvin didn't change things, just that it;s not an "only Elvin could have made this happen" kind of things like the other cut was. That one screams Elvin. This one is more like, hey Oregon's playing with a different drummer, eh? But yeah, you play with Elvin, things change, automatically. Always!

  22. Those *are* The Spandettes! You're breaking your own rules! Ooops, my bad. I had no idea who the Spandettes are or what they looked like. Strike this one form the list, then.
