Actually...I do find later Desmond (i.e. - post-Brubeck) to have a certain...ennui that prevents me from engaging in his work as much as I'd like to. Don't know if it's a question of the # of notes or just the overall "energy level", but...yeah. Basie, though, NEVER! Even when him and/or the band were on autopilot, it was an autopilot that had been wisely calibrated!

But there's so many!!!! JK!

Longtime fan of Hotforwords!

You're serious, aren't you.

Ah, so THAT'S why the little Dutch boy kept his finger in the dike!

St. Petersburgh, to be accurate, & the Rangers were rumored to have been right on the edge of becoming tenants as well. And speaking of the Rangers, Beltre + hamstring = a sadder face than I can find an image of.

I like treats!

Never a bad idea to pay attention when opening the dumpster. I once found a bil ol' box full of reel-to-reel tapes that a neighbor had thrown out. Nothing of interest on them, as it turned out, but I had dubbing material to spare for about a year!

I learned the poetry, the beauty and the all-purpose badassness of "moitherfucker" (and countless other "curse words" HA!) from "fifty-somethings" - when I was a "twenty-something". If this is your vibe, to derogatate rather than tolerate (or god forbid. "appreciate"), then I don't mind you existing, I just don't have any interest in being in your world. Never have, and probably never will. And that goes a long way towards explaining why I don't like Oscar Peterson's playing. It speaks of and to a world that is not mine,and a world that I do not want to be mine. Now - are you the type of motherfucker that can figure that out and let it be, or not?

If you think that "motherfucker" is a "curse word", then you've made my point for me, and quite nicely at that. Thanks!

I don't "hate" Oscar Peterson. I just don't like the way he played. What I do hate is the syndrome where if you don't like his playing, it's always because of some kind of "something else". Why is that so hard to figure out?

Why? Why "enamored" and why the movie?
