Thanks for the help! I'm going to hold off on JG, and pick up some Riversides down the line. Car maintenance has dug into the current CD budget, as well.

Must be a US release, because I saw it in a local brick-and-mortar shop for $10. Looks to be a Verve slimline digipak. There's a CD Universe page, which I won't give because I don't know how to link it with Organissimo...

Sorry for OT inquiry (this seems like the best candidate of existing threads), but does anyone have an opinion on Johnny Griffin's Argo release JG, with Ware and Mance? I just saw a (new release?) mid-price CD, and am considering it. I so far have only two Blue Notes, A Blowing Session (which I dig), and The Congregation (which didn't do much for me, despite my Sonny Clark obsession), and had been planning to try some Riversides next.

I've read some very interesting articles about the Chinook-Marion Tinsley rivalry. Unfortunately, I forget the sources, and a quick Google didn't turn up anything...

Going back to the subject of retired players' injuries, there was an interesting photo spread in last week's Sports Illustrated. It was a reunion of Heisman Trophy winners. Most guys were striking football poses, but Earl Campbell conspicuously remained seated, presumably because of his physical condition.

Happy birthday! I'm practically a neighbor in upstate NY (likely 45-50 mi west), but slightly older...

Ordered a couple of (low-priced) Al Haig discs from Amazon Marketplace sellers: Ornithology and Trio and Sextet.

Another modern classical composer who writes a lot of silences is Salvatore Sciarrino. Ben Johnston's String Quartet #3 has a short "silent movement". It's on the New World recording. I listened before reading the liner notes, and it freaked me out.
