Just like KIND OF BLUE, EVERYBODY knows Hello Kitty. But it takes a Dad of a daughter to know... BADTZ MARU!!!!!!!

Hearing the footsteps, RT?

What the fuck is this fuckin' shit doin' fuckin' takin' up fuckin' time in our fuckin' courts? FUCK that!

I smell squirrel gravy!

Jordan. Not even a contest for me. I dig George as much as anybody, but for THIS group, Jordan's grit provides an essential element that make it a BAND. Cedar without grit can get a little "generic" (but the HIGHEST quality generic) for me, and Jordan had grit to spare. Such a tone! But I don't change the station when the Coleman edition comes on, if you know what I mean.

No shit.

The panel is ready! Hey, where's Dorothy?

Hawk's SIRIUS, although definitely not for "beginners" (and maybe not even intermidiates), is an essential album in a certain way, or even ways.

Oh yeah, The Ellington Suites album and the two albums of "workshop" stuff. I'd lay my life on the line to keep those. There's a thing of "Love Is Just Around The Corner" that, for some reason, I think is one of the greatest things I've ever heard, even though I know it's not.

I've always liked this one. Why? Hell if I know.

If you can eat, drink and drive at the same time sanely, competently, and responsibly, here's a good'un for your next road trip: Stop at a rib shack, a 7-11, a gas station, and hit the road. Preferably on a spring day or an autumn night. Any Turner Pablo is worth checking out, flaws (of which there are many) and all, but this motherfucker just flat out ROCKS, flaws (of which there are many) and all. Sometimed flaws matter, sometime they don't. Here, they don't. Not even a little. Oh yeah, Lee Allen's on it too. Works for me.

Jazz, as Whitney Balliet said, is "the sound of surprise". The political threads are usually anything but. I look in to them only occasionally, and post in them even less. This is a jazz (and goof) board for me, first and foremost. What does not engage me, I ignore. It's not hard to do.

THIS guy has an attitude problem!

UH-oh..........

What's THIS?

So THIS is Art Ford!

Unmitigated, no less!

I have this record. It is good.

Now why didn't Lion think of THIS?
