Therefore

I am, I think.

a-HA! There was a time when that guitar tone was instantly recognizable to me, but that time has obviously passed. My personal preference is for his earlier work, but the guy is truly an individualist and a great player. Now all that's left (I think) is 2-6, something that Mike says is not listed on AMG. Accoustic bass, bass clarinet, ample percussion, and the guitarist's tone is somewhat reminiscent of Sam Brown. Well, well, well....

I guess sisterhood IS powerful, because here's what happens when the contest is one-on-one! Well yeah, that's the real reason why everybody's always talking about moving to the outskirts of town and stuff...

Black Rock, remember?

Brother/sister maybe, but not father/daughter.

I think that when you talk about a solo "resolving", it's more of a sense that all the loose ends have been tied up, everythings been covered, time to turn out the lights and head fr the house, that kind of thing. As it pertains to solos and such, it's not a technical term. Mike's definition above is what the technical meaning is.

?????????????????????? I don't think so, they're about the same age.

Too modern.

Well, DUH!

Ah, but think of Regis Philbin hosting "Who Wants to Shoot A Millionaire?". Admit it - you'd watch. We all would.

Heads, I win. Tails, you lose.

Close call, but you know it just gots to be.

The darkest hour's just before the dawn.

As if there was ever any doubt...

Maybe next year they can have a tribute to Johhny Cash and somebody can REALLY shoot a man in Reno just to watch him die...

And more!

What he said.

Now, not to get off track, but I've been noticing that prunes are now sold by many companies as "dried plums", which of course they are, but still...

Yeah, but that's just because the guy who put the tracks together has a lot of the same records I do, it seems. it's the age Jim, admit it Oh HELL yeah. Don't think I don't know it. You know you're "getting there" when kids complain that things from the 60s & 70s sound "too modern". Did LTB move us to Ork when I wasn't looking? I'd slit my wrists in frustration, but I'm too busy laughing to keep from crying. Maybe tomorrow.

The standards of amateurism have apparently risen to frighteningly high levels since the last time I looked. This frightens me - I'm just too old to go back to practicing 6-8 hours a day. Hell, sometimes it takes me that long just to take a dump!

Yeah, but that's just because the guy who put the tracks together has a lot of the same records I do, it seems.

I do now, and that would have been my second guess. But what I could hear of the original tone had me thinking Getz, which is appropros, since this guy's always had a bit of Getz in the upper partials of his tone. But this album I do not know. Funny how over the course of not too many years he went from normal enough to totally gonzo to totally warm and fuzzy. What a long, strange trip THAT must have been. I don't dig him as much as you do, and find his work on a Galaxy "different soloists fronting same rhythm section" album truly abominable, but there's never been any doubt in my mind that he was a serious player who just got kinda, uh, "freaked" sometimes and lost some crucial artistical focus. But not on this cut, this is happening! And I LOVE his work with that late-60s/early 70s freakazoidal big band!

THIS I gotta hear!

AAARRRGGGHHH!!!!! I have this one! (but Tom Archia's still a good wrong guess... )
