  1. Night Dancing.
  2. Nope. It's a shuffle. The album's pretty good. That poster was included with the first wave of 1980s BN reissues, when they relaunched the label. I put one up in my son's room when he was like 2 or 3, and he kept it up until he was 15 or so. Then he got into his own music. But he still knows good BN jazz when he hears it. That's all I wanted. Someday you can do the same for your own little chewy. Just don't rip the beating heart of of any middle aged bearded jazz idiots. Hard to make babies in prison, doncha know... Now, the Grant thing was part of a short-lived Liberty move to repackage some of the older BNs. Believe it or not, Soul Station was one of the ones that got a new cover.
  3. Spent the day listening to and it does indeed kill. A welcome addition, it is. You say that Panama! is at least as good, eh?
  4. Simple - the shelf life is infinite. There's no such thing as stale Grape Nuts. How could you tell?
  5. Sorry, but I'm waiting for the liquidation sale, when prices drop to $50.
  6. I agree w/all that Mr. Carter says about the Prestige material.
  7. Could you please give us a little more detail?
  8. Dammit, I really didn't want to spend that money right now. All I don't have is one trio side + the extras from the Lighthouse. But I love Elvin, so hey.
  9. This was the rare Mosaic that I bought almost immediately. I think it's great.

  11. Mind if I help?
  12. This would be that: Jimmy Woods on board. Hey Hey HEY!

    Not at all a fan, but I've heard that he's a genuine "good guy". Still, when Mark Murphy retires, that'll be one less singer that I'm not a fan of.

    Find the two A&M/Horizon LPs.
  16. I'll have to respectfully disagree on all counts. Tyrone's spirit was in a unique zone of it's own. Don't think I can say that about Garnett's, which is not a at all dis. But compare Tyrone w/Horace & Garnett w/Blakey for an at least 50% relevant comparison. The difference is focus of intent & execution (whatever the source of that focus might have been). Tyrone had it & Garnett was working on it. That's the difference to me.
  17. Black Love has become a cult classic among the "spiritual" crowd, but frankly I think it's one of the lesser works of the genre. Garnett had a 1996 (recorded in 1995) date on Muse (Resurgence that's a decent enough "neo-con" effort. Still nothing to shout about, though, not really. On the whole, I think of Garnett (who was living/gigging in Houston last I heard - 3 or 4 years ago) as one of the "foot soldiers" of the music, a guy who's out there doing it. Even if the results make little or no difference to the world at large, hey - they make a difference to him, and he keeps on doing it for that reason. Somebody's gonna hear him and be reached at some level. That deserves at least some respect in my book.

  19. So, what happened to Paul Desmond's tune?

  22. Good, fair, and true points. But... The game-losing interception was not thrown while BleedSoul was under particularly heavy pressure. Now, you can say that he had been under so much pressure all day that he might not have been able to find his zone. And you may well be right. But I'll counter that a "champion" caliber player carpe diems in a situation like that and doesn't throw that interception. And I may well be right. And then we mambo!

  24. Yep. Again.
