  1. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-u5C-PPqbGk I nominate Steve Jordan.
  2. What Trio Are You Listening To Now, eh?
  3. Yep, the old Night Music show, still not released on DVD!
  4. Just waiting for a Joe Sample thread!
  5. What about Leonard Cohen?
  6. Here's the healthy outdoor type Single Snet.. Who doesn't like that, especially while posting about Bill Evans?
  7. NEWMAN! Fathead Noble Watts
  8. Indeed it is. Fixed appropriately. It's a pleasure to watch these snets, singularly or otherwise!
  9. Is that somebody famous, or at least famous within the circles of LeBrondom? And hey - that girl is ALL pixel! I'm so glad we have the girls of Singlesnet.com to keep us company here on our jazzboard!
  10. Aren't they a pleasure to see, everywhere and every time you log on to the board? She's PURTY!
  11. Dan Tana Frank Tanana The good people who manufacture, market, sell, and service the Tanamara Post-Natal Set http://www.tanamera...._natal_set.html
  12. Just listen to the sound he gets out of the tenor, how it's big, fat, and full in all registers, how he understands the possible sounds the horn presents, and how he always has total control over them. Anything beyond that is just icing on the cake.
  13. True...the original premise was based on the Buddy Rich PJ material - could have been a Mosiac but wasn't, and probably just as well b/c all the material ended up coming out on mass-distribution single CDs.
  14. NYT Review here: http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03/08/books/the-one-james-brown-biography-by-r-j-smith.html?_r=2 I'll take a hit of it, yeah. Still recommended:
  15. RIP Harry Wendelstedt http://mlb.sbnation.com/2012/3/9/2858082/harry-wendelstedt-mlb-umpire-dies
  16. A Google Ad from the site of the article: How's that for cruel irony?
  17. Yeah, I hear you, it's not something you really expect, ever... Here's that YouTube clip: Two observations - the way she sings "mumps" is one of those things that comes out of nowhere, hits you upside your head hard, and then is gone by the time you gather your senses enough to look for it: & I think she more than adequately bedazzled Heffner, beating him at his own game. She had him eating out of her hand!
  18. Not to get too dark about it, but, what with the world and life being what it is and all, that's a twistedly "logical" (forgive the word choice...) time to do it if you're so inclined, late 20s, early 30s...right when the idealism starts to hit a brick wall & the pragmatism hasn't yet taken root...all that's left is cynicism, unencumbered and unimpeded. BOOM goes the dynamite if you're so inclined...
  19. Not really a fetish, just something I noticed about her from the album cover photos, and I thought it was attractive. Not a "turn-on" or anything, just attractive.
  20. Beverly Kenney is a not-uninteresting case, personally and musically. And she had loooong fingers, which I kinda dig.
  21. I think a Facebook like is equivalent to when you're like, 11 or twelve and you ask the cutest girl in class "I like you, do you like me?" and she says "of course I do" and then you follow her around all day and she says that to everybody because she wants to be liked by everybody, not because she like everybody. And a subscribe is like when you're 15 and go to everybody else's party so that when you have one of your own, everybody else will come to it, even the ones who throw shitty parties. Having said that, there's a lot of serious musicians (and other people) who do Facebook pretty hardcore. I thnk it's a mistake to think that Facebook Peoples won't be serious about this product just because they're Facebook Peoples.
  22. Can't tell for sure if that's a real beach or not, but geez, wasn't there any other chair handy besides one that says "grab that one over in the corner and let's get going"??
  23. I remember when Fair Warning came out, a guitar player friend of mine who was into anybody who played with facility commented that Eddie Van Halen & Jan Hammer were starting to sound like the same player, just on different instruments. That, I thought, was a very interesting way to hear things, so I tried listening to Van Halen (then, anyway, obviously things changed as the years passed) as a pop-fusion band instead of a straight-up rock band. It didn't not work, I'll say that.
  24. I agree with all that, just not that people who would bother frequenting a Mingus-specific Facebook page would be less likely to buy something than "we" would. About the only place where I can find some people who aren't on Facebook, serious musicians included, is here. Thank god! Bottom line for me - I think they're wrong if they don't do it both ways, download and physical copy. Farts old and young alike can then have it their way, and Mingus gets heard no matter what. That's the important thing.
