so I woke up in the middle of the night and my wife
Niko replied to AllenLowe's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
interesting you mention chest pain, my girlfriend has been taking (an equivalent of) protonix for three weeks now and we had already suspected that the strong chest pain she has is not from the actual illness but a side effect of protonix (experimenting with leaving away protonix for a day or so which didn't work out well otherwise - still not clear what disease she actually has...) (other of the announced side effects like headache and, don't know the word but it's not too bad..., are there - but then again they could have other sources as well) could i maybe have the link of that web page you mentioned? -
often over the last months, while this site was loading i had the vision that this thread would be there... my favorite tenor player

sorry for the delay... !happy birthday marcel!

ANYTHING jazz related, in a NON-JAZZ context...
Niko replied to Rooster_Ties's topic in Miscellaneous Music
in the tv series Dawson's Creek,, Pacey's brother Doug has a poster of the BN Rare Groove Series in his appartment... (and like 10 minutes later there was another out of place thing related to something pretty cool but i forgot what) -
last time i looked kind of blue was still in print... though admittedly you're probably the best address for an mp3 vinyl rip of it
-
got a letter, please apply again in 3009, better than nothing but not very useful at the moment...

Andorra is not a full member of the European Union, but has a special relationship with it. Ah - OK. Never quite been sure. A special relationship such that regulations concerning copyright have 'Direct Effect'? maybe i am overlooking something here... but if andorra had a different copyright legislation from the EU until now (btw, do we know this for certain?) why should this change just because the EU change their legislation...

Help! I can't bring myself to unload my old rock records!
Niko replied to blind-blake's topic in The Vinyl Frontier
can only confirm this, thinking about the kids in rock bands i used to know like ten years ago (when i was a kid who somtimes helped out in bands when a saxophone was needed) (and many kids were in rock bands) most of them viewed rock as some sort of continuum from the sixties on (with some horrible things having happened in the seventies) and listened to all those decades (and i do know dozens of people my age or younger who had the Who or the Beatles or Hendrix as their favorite artists for long until starting to listen to newer stuff... (my own younger brother for instance, no idea where he got the exposition, not from me and not from our parents...)) and buying vinyl was often enough a cheap option -
don't think they'll be affected... btw on my james moody/kenny barron argo/lonehill twofer i noticed a strange writing... "licensed by Long Horn inc. D.L. AND 174-2007 - made in the EU Cover & inside booklet photos: x" whatever that means (lh=lonehill=longhorn...?) almost sounds as if they "licensed" it from an Andorrean company who got it out of public domain and then printed it in spain....

Help! I can't bring myself to unload my old rock records!
Niko replied to blind-blake's topic in The Vinyl Frontier
well, i do treasure my dad' lp collection, only about 10 lps though, which he hadn't spun in the last 25 years of his life... guess i will also take a few hundreds of his books (his obsession) when my mum wants to get rid of them... but i do feel a bit crazy because of it... (i mean, i am fairly interested in philosophy, sociology and linguistics, i have indeed read three or four of his linguistics books and a bit more of the philosophy ones (don't see me doing that in he future though)... but then again do i really need 500 fairly interesting sociology books from the 1970s-1990s (most of which are again worth pretty much nothing)) -
Digression thread: Coherence is overrated
Niko replied to AllenLowe's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
just in case you ever wondered what fausto papetti looked like himself (he's the guy with the baritone saxophone) -
thread about the lorez alexandria argo album for swingers only... reissued by dusty groove http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...amp;mode=linear larry curly moe said he'd ask them about yusef at cranbrook... wonder what became of that

i got it, it's excellent, but since this thread is up at the moment: here is a used copy of enfin at the upper end of the range of reasonable prices (by far the cheapest copy i saw in some time ) 18 Euro from some amazon.de seller http://www.amazon.de/Enfin-Lou-Bennett/dp/...7836&sr=1-2

one of those records i missed in that great zweitausendeins sale two years ago... lately i found the best prices for ojcs from international ebay sellers btw, (took me some while to figure this out - you have to change your search setting to worldwide to find them) that would have gotten you a copy for about 5,50, but of course, shipping would have taken much longer than from france http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ZOOT-SIMS-EAST-COAST...p3286.m14.l1318

Where do you live, St. Pauli? actually it's a reasonable nice housing area in bonn... bonn does however stink more than most other cities around it (cologne) (we also have slightly higher temperatures here most of the time...) funnily enough recently on tv there was a report about some troubled 14 year old and they tried their best to report about our area as some sort of ghetto ("where gang membership is all that counts"... and the like) ... pretty funny (i mean, groups of three or four 14 year olds smoking cigarettes don't make a place a ghetto) Doesn't make the group a gang either. not really, they rather looked fat and a little troubled - though they did look fierce enough that i wouldn't have dared to tell them they're not a gang

more or less accidentally i haven't smoked for two days now and the one thing that changed really quickly was that i started to register how bad the streets around here smell...

thought i'd mention there's also a hat sale (4,99 euro) at zweitausendeins (2001) currently... ordered warne marsh's ne plus ultra there...

posted this link before some time ago that i read it but there's a good chance that in steven isoardi's extensive interview you might well find ortega's view of the answer... i like his later stuff (though all in all i must admit i am not too puzzled he didn't get bigger than bird) http://content.cdlib.org/xtf/view?docId=hb...=&brand=oac btw anyone else thought ortega had died when seeing this thread... scary! and another btw, can anyone confirm that the ortega/dupree bolton pacific jazz session mentioned in the interview is (not) on the new uptown cd?

this wouldn't affect andorra, right?

happy birthday tom!

Techheads: Is there any way to make a file viewable...
Niko replied to trane_fanatic's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
just wanted to throw in i am with ejp on this issue... anything that people can play on their computer can be ripped using software that is found within minutes... i wouldn't even try to encode stuff... just brings up bad emotions in people (think of copyprotected cds) and doesn't prevent them from doing anything they want to do -
Pianist Gerald Wiggins has passed
Niko replied to Christiern's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
