been a vegetarian for several years now and never felt like i was giving up anything - but if it was about cheese instead of meat i don't know whether i could do it

!happy birthday!

got Steven Isoardi's book "The Dark Tree" on Friday and the accompanying CD has some unissued Arkestra material 4 minutes from 1969, 10 minutes from 1970, 17 great minutes from 1976, and 34 (just quintet) minutes from 1995; amazon.com has it for 19$ (from sellers, 25 from amazon) and you get a nice 300 page hardcover book (haven't read much yet besides the photos) plus a CD; would love to hear more as well, but nothing else seems to be available

sad this isn't great, the line-up looks so fine: (info from bjazz.blogspot.com great Tapscott, Cart, Bradford site) Curtis Amy saxophones soprano et ténor Warren Gale, Jr. trompette Lester Robertson trombone Horace Tapscott piano Eddie Mathias contrebasse Mel Lee batterie

!happy birthday! hope the dullness is over...

If you take into account the western european votes only (first column in the table in the middle of the page), the top rankings would have been almost the same: http://www.bildblog.de/2258/warum-mag-uns-eigentlich-keiner i've seen a little more during lunch... i think given the extreme crapiness of most of the western submissions ("our" song was not great but e.g. UK and Spain had a quality that was hard to believe, and the Irish singer was so much out of tune i've hardly heard such a thing on TV before) there is really no reason to complain (though maybe this is a decline in quality in response to the eastern block voting of recent years) besides it is quite apparent that these eastern countries have some common taste which is different from ours... once you have accepted that groups like the one from Russia or Romania have fans at all it is easy to imagine that these are spread over several countries (my imagination still has problems with the first step) nevertheless the songs i liked best came all from eastern countries, they just put more effort into the thing... that crappy "dancefloor" thing from the uk, will have to see it again before i go to sleep...

would you consider hawaiian jazz as west coast?

wonder what it means that there are much more right foot shoes than left foot shoes on the table

from Peter Losin's site: http://www.plosin.com/milesAhead/Tapes.aspx?s=19491107 i don't care too much for studio chatter usually, but in such a case it might actually help to nail down whether it really was Coltrane??? (depending on who chatters what)

thank you much, for answering my question even though this has all been discussed before! (i knew; but a 22 page thread dedicated alone to Braxton - not that i didn't read some of it - and many more threads dedicated to him and others of these artists require a lot of work until you are down to a number of albums you might seriously consider buying, especially, if you don't know the music at all ) thank you

they just don't have states like Moldavia... if I were Angela Merkel I'd offer them Thueringen or maybe Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (the latter would even include couw, but that's one of the more attractive features); ey, we's got a big ass G8 fence too! some shipyards, a bunch of trees and all that nature... that should increase value convinced, maybe Sachsen-Anhalt is the more reasonable offer though it lies right in the middle next year's candidate?

0 points for our "Sinatra" from Moldova (at least Eurovision taught me the correct spelling) and the only song i've seen has won, will I watch the rest?....

they just don't have states like Moldavia... if I were Angela Merkel I'd offer them Thueringen or maybe Mecklenburg-Vorpommern (the latter would even include couw, but that's one of the more attractive features); Sinatra... i don't know, you are being extremely nice

in case someone like this crap for the right reasons he or she might turn into a jazz fan and buy good records some day, i could have written Johnny Griffin instead , have only seen Serbia so far and was not too impressed

can't watch it right now, but am recording it as i still have to work; this is the official apology of the people of germany for submitting this crap; my girlfriend asked with a sinister smile, isn't this what they call jazz... well, the part of me that appreciates jazz can't relate to it and the rest hates the lyrics very much... if some guy in Moldavia likes it and will end up buying Kenny Dorham records there was some use to it but for the moment I am really sorry (though admittedly of the three performers between we could choose on television this may even have been the best choice)

now that this great (thank you!) thread sems to have finally run a little out of steam, i can maybe ask a (slightly off-topic, but only slightly) question: i have and have and enjoy some of the older 60s New York etc Free Jazz but of the new arrivals that have been discussed I haven't heard a single record: what would two or three fine records be which could help me find out what Braxton, AEC, AACM, BAG or anything else of the second group of musicians discussed were all about?

on the jazzwestcoast list it was mentioned that Rod Levitt passed away on May 8

thank you from the George forum: Our users have posted a total of 167927 articles. We have 710 registered users (a brief look reveals however that they are not talking about George exclusively...)

dankeschön! remember however (hard to believe as it may seem from his looks) that Heino was one of those first models who started to sing

possibilities are endless (though Howard McGhee isn't actually playing on all the images on which he wears sunglasses)

from this thread: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/lofiversi...php/t30841.html Booker Ervin (The Freedom Book - 1963) Tadd Dameron (Mating Call - 1956) Roland Kirk w/Jack McDuff (Kirk's Works - 1963) Roy Haynes/ Phineas Newborn/ Paul Chambers (We Three - 1958) Thelonius Monk (Trios - 2004) All of these albums are on the schedule for a May 1, 2007 release date. Mark it down

some paper of which i thought it did exactly what i am trying to achieve; after two depressed hours (and several spam posts here, sorry) I finally managed to look inside and it seems, somewhat contrary to the abstract, they are not really doing anything too exciting, doesn't solve any problems, still i feel a lot better now and might even read on

once my girlfriend showed me some holiday photos from before we knew, and accidentally on one photo, taken many miles from home (at the central station in Munich) I spotted (definitely) one of my best friend's (guitar player) girlfriend (who i strongly dislike) and you could not exactly tell whether she was kissing that guy who stood very close beside her; 4 years have gone by, they are still together and i still haven't showed him the photo, and maybe it's just because he knows nobody likes her,

most of this, i dare say, might even be still available when our CDs are all gone from the shops...

in the mosaic future projects site it says (on the Matthwes Select) "An added bonus is the legendary, previously unissued two-tune session by Earl Anderza and Dupree Bolton for Pacific Jazz." this (great) interview slightly suggests they mixed up Earl Anderza with Anthony Ortega http://content.cdlib.org/xtf/view?docId=hb...=&brand=oac or are matters more complicated?
