Ok!

Dave Remmaster - Probably The Finest Ever!!!

That's an amazing record. Truly amazing . So full session tapes exist? Put me down for that, please!

Donnie Fandango - The Tingle Of Goodness

Mister Peepers, Season 1 kinescopes on Tubi. Live TV was a trip, and so is seeing a young Wally Cox (who started out doing standup at the Vanguard!!!).

And for PC, you still have Foobar, which has been my friend for some pretty out there shit over the years (.ape files, anybody?) It's free too. It just works.

My needs are basic, so I use a freebie called Ashampoo Burning Studio FREE. Pretty intuitive AFAIC, but the most recent update has added a step to the drag/drop of files that serves no logical purpose that I can see, but hey, free and functional for the stuff I do. My advice would be to keep it simple unless you're going to get into more advanced audio/video editing. If all you plan on doing is basic ripping, copying, and burning of CDs (you didn't say you bought a drive that also will do DVD/Blu-Ray, but maybe you did?), there are plenty of good basic programs for free, at least for PCs. Do a little research and go for a consensus pick. There are several. If you're doing Mac, can't help you, but that's ok. They pretty much make up your mind for you as often as not.

I found the disconnect between burning Joe Henderson-ish tenor and facile but sorta emotionally neutral clarinet virtuosity one of the more curious jazz disconnects. But you know, his music, his life, his choice, and at least he never cheated anybody as far as integrity of facility goes.

Hart To Hart Season 2 Episode 9- Murder Is A Drag. Characters include: Andy Kirkson Mr. Six McGarity Marion Juan Tizol Mrs. Claude Hopkins Detectives Tate & Ewell Harry Carney Sgt. Mezzrow Episode was written by Donald Ross (married to the late Patty Deutsch). Does Mr. Ross have any further work linking him to his obvious jazz awareness?

Yeah, if. Could be.

Yeah, and this is where their maddening (almost literally) inconsistency inspires at least as much doubt as it does hope.

And yet the Astros grrrrrrrrrrrr......

Nope. He wasn't even born yet l.

It depends on where the music is entering your ear. The ear has many angles of entry, with just as many final destinations to match. Try the Jack Sheldon/Don Sebesky records on Dot.

Botti can really play. Period. Nothing ersatz about it. And no, I don't have, nor plan on getting, any of his output. Oh well! But people who can really play, you can tell. That's a musician thing.

Maximizing a profit and making a great profit are not the same thing. The latter is a healthy aim. The former is simply all the Kool-Aid having been drank. Fullest stop.

It's only "too much money not to ____" for people who have a price for anything.

Yep. The arc of progress, is it arcing upwards or downwards? Or does it matter as long as people are "happy"? Define happiness for people and you got 'em right where you want'em. Oh yeah, remember when the AL & NL were genuine honest to god different business entities? Centralization...inevitable. But so is separation. Push/pull, yin/yang. But Go Rangers anyway!!! Just...do better next year, ok?

Very small sample size. 100+ win teams should be able to figure out how to "stay ready" during a little down time. The layoff is a poor excuse imo. Then again, thee whole expanded Wild Card paradigm is a bit of a sham, imo. My team is benefitting from it, but that doesn't alter my opinion. Then again again, I became a baseball fan in 1964, before there were divisions at all, never mind 3 of them, never mind interleague play, and for sure never mind THREE wild card teams. The "drama" of the AL West this year was real, but also a bit of an artificial construct. Compare it to the should-be-legendary 1966 NL race, where three teams were in contention going into the final week of the season. https://sabr.org/journal/article/a-season-ending-doubleheader-and-its-impact-on-the-1966-world-series/ In today's business, all three would end up in some kind of Wild Card scenario, which is it's own kind of "drama", but... it's a constructed drama. This shit was REAL in a way that an only one possible outcome scenario can be. You play the season and when it's over, it's over. Done. Straight to the WS, no second chances. If you can't say it in 162 games, sorry, better luck next year. Wild Cards are more than Participation Trophies, but let's not pretend that they're not an invitation for teams, including the Rangers, to get a second chance...why, exactly, other than money money money and more money. Color me old and grumpy.
