i would... but wait, i do still have an unanswered mail from you

http://www.djangomusic.com/ works again... good luck with your orders!

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

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)

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...

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

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...)

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...)

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...)

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)

and Donald Petersen... ??

a little late... but why not wish you a great day today (and a fine year to come)

seconded, the only Kynard i know and i like it a lot... how does the Legends of Acid Jazz twofer compare?

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

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

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

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...?

arguably the ojc i have enjoyed the most so far! waiting for Sonny Stitt - Soul People and Jimmy Forrest - Forrest - Forrest Fire, hope at least one of them shows up today... If you don't mind me asking, where did you get Forrest Fire? Through the concord site? i got it used from an amazon.de seller who just had one copy (for 6.50 Euro + 3 for shipping...) right now there is still another amazon.de seller that looks reasonably trustworthy which has it at 10 Euro (international shipping is 6 Euro iirc?)

don't know about you, but i just ordered Forrest Fire at a decent price, but... (being bored is better than other things, this morning i missed a moderately important appointment because i thought the time would be two hours later as last time, ten minutes ago i discovered that the upper bound that i thought i had figured out does not apply even half as easily as i had thought/hoped... wish i was bored)

what MikeWeill mentioned above, the sessions with Draper and Elmo Hope and that's all? would be a nice set, I should think... brief glance at jazzdisco discography, only other thing i see is Tenor Madness with Rollins (guess i am the last person who doesn't have that...) seems like a great set... (Garland is two sessions...)

Mangione better known than Shorter... wow, guess i am too young to understand

Given the bad dietary habits in the U.S. - go to a mall or to a street in a U.S. city and check out the number of obese people walking around - that might well be true. it's cute they claim in the article this is because americans have the money to be as fat as they are - this may make the difference in comparison with many countries in the world but i guess for most countries which are "better" than the us on that list it's rather ridiculous to think that is part of the reason...
