  1. Science is our friend. Just sayin'...
  2. There's a stoner joke in there somewhere, but I'm too lazy to find it. Seriously, it would be nice if we could get everybody objective and scientific about the various medicinal applications of the herb in question. I've seen nothing to suggest that it's not anything but 100% legit.
  3. I'd think that the industry would have wanted to be out in front of the DEA, especially when Sessions was AG.
  4. Ok, thanks, looks good.
  5. Thanks for that info. It's all new to me, but like I said, a day for education. The 9th has been in the news lately, on other matters. Interesting to hear of their involvement in this issue as well. Again, something learned.
  6. Not interested in tracklists, interested in players and configurations. Or are these all studio or otherwise already released sessions?
  7. No, I have no problem with it either. I do like learning new "jargon", though, so thanks for the explanation. I do like doing "forensics" on URLs, so it's good to have a greater awareness about things like this. Next up, CBD. not familiar with that one either. It's a day for education!
  8. CBD?
  9. Do we know what's going to be on this Dodo thing?
  10. que significa "drop"?
  11. and now we have talking camels?
  12. I'm not a 78 collector, but my experience has been that every Half Price in the galaxy has plenty of 'em. Not that they're all good, mind you.
  13. "On sale" and "for sale" are not the same thing, but I'm not going to pick nits. However, a post in the "Offering and Looking For" forum might get more attention, and therefore a happier ending.
  14. Now THAT was a voice! I had heard the name before the playing, and was kind of shocked to seem him on on/with a Brubeck Family concert on PBS. What a mindblower that was! RIP, and many smiles from the memories.
  15. I had a buddy who hit a bump in the road coming back from the lake and ended up having all his fish knocked out of the water he was keeping them in. Is this movie anything like that?
  16. I did a spit-take when I saw a review by "Hank Drake".
  17. and that's gonna be for the rest of your life. live long and prosper.
  18. Oh, that makes it easy for The Google Whisperer: http://neverenoughrhodes.blogspot.com/2008/05/freedom-of-speech-billy-parkers-fourth.html And even though neither of the front-line has ever been a really compelling soloist for me, it sounds like the other people on the record sure as hell are getting there, so... I'm happy to say that I've heard most of the Strata-East catalog. Happy, but not proud, because I've never heard this one. About to remedy that...
  19. Calling TTK to affirm, please?
  20. I didn't know Rex Reed was still alive? He could take a refresher course in writing, though, because what he means as a dis comes out sounding like a compliment to yours truly. TBH - I have never heard any Don Shirley that captivated me enough to dig deeper. But an OST made entirely of his recordings, hey, I'd be in on that, because, you know, a superficial yet big-enough representation would be enough for me to feel self-satisfied and culturally astute, especially since it would be an OST. Like a Ken Burns collection. But all that other stuff? Not needed here. That would be like when the twirlers in my high school went to twirler cam to learn their routine, and the one they selected was the theme to Viva Max, aka "Viva Max March". So, the school dutifully purchased the RCA OST, whereby it was eventually discovered (not the by twirlers, mind you, even though it was the very next track on the record) that that LP also contained this little piece of WTF-ishness: Ok, RCA, how about a whole Al Hirt album like that business @ 0:52? Huh? Well? Ok? Right? Anyway, it was actually a pretty funny movie. Check it out sometimes if you haven't yet. And knowing now a lot more than I did then about Hollywood film-scoring, the full OST is not without interest in that vein. But you know, 14 year olds don't know shit about shit like that.
  21. If it ain't Joe Lee and not Leon T...I know it's not Andy Bey, so I'm out of instinctual guesses. The lyrics are sorta Silveto-era/Horace Silver, but that's not Horace. Their "instructional" nature has me thinking Strata-East maybe? Of some other self-determinational base?
  22. "these guys" is a dangerous concept in general, even as a conversational gambit (and especially as a rhetorical ploy), but especially if/when "these guys" are people you don't know personally.
  23. Please to be asked is there the real Don Shirley records to be used in the soundtack? And can there be made to sell a soundtrack album if so?
