  1. again, why do you use jstor instead of scholar.google.com for searching? i thought it contained jstor plus a lot more...? because it gives you too much nonsense?
  2. here we had a list of these universal reissues... http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...amp;hl=jazzecho
  3. hmmm, no idea about history... for my purposes, JSTOR is far from complete, relatively often i need stuff from elsewhere, actually i usually search on scholar.google.com they already provide weblinks (including jstor) but (though they are decent, they) could be better at searching within abstracts (but it has some useful features, too, such as containing lots of working papers or providing citation histories...), so sometimes i use a specialized database (which won't help you too much) which contains more details about the articles; but, again, no idea what you are looking for; guess the stuff where it is embarrassing if you don't cite it should be in JSTOR
  4. more organ: Lou Bennett - Amen
  5. i see what you mean the word amazon.com is there (the box doesn't open over it but below - guess another programming error in the priority between list boxes or what they are called on the page...) but the search function is the right one... Is this something to do with using different browsers? I'm using Int Exp and it's not like that. MG i'd have guessed that it comes from the way the page is programmed - that there are layers or a priority between control elements or something and that the guy who programmed it was not really careful (don't know too much about these online programming languages just about visualbasic :-) ) but if you don't have it... strange, i have it and use IE, too; maybe the windows version or something
  6. i see what you mean the word amazon.com is there (the box doesn't open over it but below - guess another programming error in the priority between list boxes or what they are called on the page...) but the search function is the right one...
  7. the search you were looking for is in the (second) grey bar at the top in the upper right corner (not two lines below where the amazon thing is...)
  8. i would... but wait, i do still have an unanswered mail from you
  9. http://www.djangomusic.com/ works again... good luck with your orders!
  10. Joe and Pharoah Sanders play flutes on Alice Coltrane's Ptah the El Doud. iirc i read somewhere that he also plays flute somewhere on Andrew Hill's Point of Departure
  11. philosophy class, too... (guess none of us would wish to enter a philosoph class again these days unless for money but that was six years ago)
  12. was at zweitausendeins briefly today and noticed no cc cds among the (relatively small fraction) they had in stock... notably wayne shorter's all seeing eye and adam's apple (which iirc were cc cds initially) seemed to be "normal" cds... this of course doesn't mean that they are not selling both versions...
  13. another half cent, just want to make clear, when i post links to old threads (which i do fairly often) i really really do not want to say "couldn't you see your new thread wasn't necessary"... i really don't need things around me neatly organized and i don't have a problem with repitions (ok, i haven't been around here very long); i just think the initial poster might be interested in those threads and besides, when i am searching for something i find links to related threads (which don't need to be repititive, might be threads about a single album...) rather helpful; and as i have less to contribute than many many others i try to be helpful this way
  14. you mean i should rather get them separately... (actually i guess i am the only one who owns Smooth as the Wind but not Mating Call...)
  15. surprised nobody but me talks about all those photos of Keepnews in the booklets... (only have the Dorham and that booklet got two... while in his liner notes there is something interesting here and there, the same isn't really true for the photos...)
  16. sounds like you have the second of the two covers... (a pity since the first cover is really beautiful and the second is just looking ok...)
  17. maybe as a twofer with Mating Call... just listening to Out of the Blue, i think that one is my favorite out of the ones i have (Smooth as the wind, Sure Thing and Blue's Moods)
  18. and Donald Petersen... ??
  19. a little late... but why not wish you a great day today (and a fine year to come)
  20. seconded, the only Kynard i know and i like it a lot... how does the Legends of Acid Jazz twofer compare?
  21. also made a purchase in anticipation of the "before rvgs go away" threads (on sale for 4,99 Euro at zweitausendeins) Lou Donaldson - The Natural Soul Lee Morgan - Leeway Joe Henderson - Our Thing Freddie Hubbard - Open Sesame
  22. Niko

    Shazam!

    here's a definite fan, but i only had two singles collections the better of which i gave to my brother... would have to take a look, memory seems to be empty right now
  23. easy way to check is a search for threads with "Evans" in the title... the problem with the short words is, i guess that the search engine searches for a string word by word and then excludes results where words don't appear in their string... thus a search for "ran blake" is still impossible
  24. and +Evans +Bill +Waltz doesn't give any results which is strange given what the results for +Bill +Evans are (at first sight i would guess it only gives titles starting with "Bill Evans" but...) never saw a similar problem with search in topics (which i always use iirc) another problem while we're at it, the search engine complains about strings containing words shorter than 4 letters like "legends of acid jazz"... that searching for "of" alone is not possible i completely understand, but within a longer string...?
