Here's your chance everybody! "Fiveplay" is on sale for 10 bucks at www.arborsrecords.com! Nat Hentoff selected this as a "Critics pick top 5 album" in the February 2000 issue of Jazz Times.
This has been a public service announcement!

Went to the cd exchange in cleveland and found Greg Osby's first for $2.99
Oh, and it snowed Friday night!
All in all, a good time was had by all.
perhaps the solution is to have just one thread where wingy can comment on all the other threads?!!
(for those who may not realize it - my tongue is deeply imbedded in my cheek) B)
is "uniformed" the same as "uninformed"?
ok, i'll bite, where does one go to "bone up" on the "Jazzmobile"? (and should i really care?)
btw wingy, if you are looking to win friends here, try posting in the "Babe" thread!
Even though i consider myself to be reasonably intelligent, i can't make heads or tails of this thread. I trust that i am not alone. I conclude that the "truth" is one of the following:
a) there is some serious alcohol or substance use involved here;
B) the thread is a written manifestation of some sort of mental illness;
c) this is akin to the old "no soap, radio" joke;
d) there really is a "generation gap"; or
e) i have entered the "matrix"
Rashaan is incredible and IMHO never got the credit that he deserved. I am trying to obtain everything he ever recorded . . and i'm well on my way. If only i had a complete discography to use as a checklist. . . .
i also have his biography "bright moments" which i haven't started yet.
so much to do, so little time!
thanks paul, but it will have to be another time. this trip with my wife & kids is for thanksgiving with relatives (hers) ----- so there is no escape!!!!!!!

Just heard the other night (on letterman) Joss Stone. She sang a song called "Fell in love with a boy." and sounded a whole lot like Janis Joplin. The song was GREAT!!
Anybody know anything about Joss?
Before I buy the cd has anybody checked it out? How is the rest of the cd?
