How does Hendricks end up not having his own mike? Anyway, talk about time...just found this one. Definitely a "show piece", but there's so many ways this could go wrong, especially if the time starts getting all "show-y", but no, it stays in the pocket and builds, just like it should. The pocket is a good place to be. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EIm9OFQuAQ

I'd like him to live forever. Or at least longer than me. I know he won't, but when him and Sonny finally go, that's going to be it for me and living tenor giants. I don't want to see that. But unless my lifespan is shorter than normal, I probably will. So, while the image is silly, the sentiment is anything but.

As horn solos...eh, ok. It wouldn't suck, but... It's just SO nice to hear motherfuckers scat who can actually hear changes and sing them instead of just oobey-doobeying a bunch of semi-syncopated fumblefuxations. Especially at that tempo. And when it gets to the fours, hey... And - the way Annie Ross hops back in for the closing ensemble, singing lead like that, that's a chick who can drive my bus anytime, what with confidence skills like that. Possibly higher than a muffker at that. Still got that pocket, and lovin' it. Pretenders be gone! Skills baby, SKILLS.

I want Beltre back in the lineup, the Inner Colby Lewis to not oversleep and send His Evil Twin as a sub ever again, and for C.J. Wilson to personally threaten the rest of the staff with violence if they even think about doing something this again. Even then, it's a bit of a mismatch over the course of a season, the Rangers are not the only team the Red Sox have done this to, but for any given series, I can watch it with some hope if the lineup is full and the pitching up to potential. Do we miss Cliff Lee? Over seven years, I don't think so. This year, yes. Harrison, Ogando, Holland have all flashed more than a few signs of Great Things To Come, but nowhere near consistently enough. C.J.'s a man after my own heart, but he's not Cliff Lee. And Colby? Schizo like a motherfucker this year. Big time.I was sitting Row 18, right behind the plate last night, and WHOA, that shit was weak. But you never know which Colby you get until he goes out there for the game... Right now, just winning the division is a big if, and if that happens, given the expectations of the starters at the beginning of the season (and hte perfromance of the bullpen damn near almost all year) coupled with critical injuries early (and if Beltre doesn't get back soon, late), I'd be very happy with just doing that. It would be a bigger triumph than last year, imo. But that's just me.

Decoy is pretty quirky (in an interesting way, I think) & Star People is just all-round great playing by all. But both are definitely electric/electronic and not at all based in 50s or 60s notions of "swing", so if that's a deal-breaker, consider the deal broken.

I've always (well, ever since knowing how R&B songs really worked...) just assumed the double entendre.

That would explain all the horrible names I've been having screamed at me, then!

I don't know if I've got the perfect Miles Davis collection (or even a perfect Miles Davis collection), but I've got all this stuff and a lot more, so...good for me, and good for everybody else who can say the same. I think we've all got more perfect Miles Davis collections than what is being sold as such. It really is time for a new language...
