  1. Jazz wise i heard him once and i can't say that i was really impressed by his skills on the trumpet, gotta say he just started doing that stuff maybe he improved as he worked on it, imo he was a very fine blues guitar player, however he seemed to have a ball playing this stuff and in the end it's all that matters
  2. Bought it from Amazon, listened it once, those who hate ECMish stuff won't like it one bit. For the rest you should enjoy it after a first time listening it is an album that will be worth listening again a few times, Rava has a very dreamy way of playing that makes him the standout man of this duet.

  3. Did not even know that he was sick, i saw him play trumpet on a outside venue at the Jazz fest few years ago, loved his version of the John Hiatt song, very sad indeed.
  4. Ed Giacomin Terry Sawchuk Jacques Plante It's been a while.
  5. No airplay whatsoever does not help, plus i'll sound like an old reactionnary but a long and complicated musical piece without any lyrics in it, ain't gonna excite the kids in a world where instant reward is the main goal. If you don't have the natural curiosity to go beyond what is offered on the charts, some do and some don't and for that age is irrelevant, you'll never ger real exposition to the music and its different styles.
  6. Great idea, let's now discuss under which section this thread really belongs .
  7. If you're a fight fan, hope you enjoyed tonight what was the latest installment of one of the best boxing rivalries in booxing history (Skill and entertainment value) between Israel Vasquez and Rafael Marquez. We salute you, gentlemen.
  8. Still see that Bluenote does not understand how to communicate properly with human beings, maybe he should refine his skills in the chat room. As far as the original inquiry goes, although i can not help you i can however inform you that there is a thread for those kind of questions. http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...mp;hl=pronounce
  9. Put me in the yes camp.
  10. That site is great, they start a thread about an album and it turns out to be instructions about using the search engine.
  11. Thanks to PhillyQ to remind me of this sale, here's what i bought with it. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Crevulations - Evan Parker / Stan Tracey (PSI) Thanks to John B. and his blindfold test who made me discover this fine recording. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Complete Recordings: 1980-1983 - Andrea Centazzo's Mitteleuropa Orchestra (Ictus)
  12. Don't write anything in this thread , they are on to us.
  13. While we're at it, i'm pretty sure that Clemens's urine and blood test was spiked. Any theories about that ?
  14. I don't think I'm better than anyone. I'm just not going to go through all those threads. Do you know how many threads have been posted here? I'm sure you do. Oh, and your *rude* comments to a Canadian board member weren't very appealing. Can you direct me to the thread to look for those nice comments. This post in the Don't Like Obama thread. The same thread where he mocked Obama's name, and made fun of Chinese people. Thanks, they were actually more ignorant than actually rude, but still he reminds me a little bit of Archie Bunker but way less funny.
  15. Thanks Bill and yes I realize you've been trying to help me, but let me say that I'm not going to use the search function, because I don't have to. I don't care if something about Stan Kenton has been posted x amount of times. I have a right to post and start new discussions do I not? What's so wrong with that? No you don't and you're wrong,

  17. In ten months it will be Christmas
  18. Holly shit he sure does know how to attract a crowd, never saw so many people looking at the same thread at the same time.
  19. If the Patriots are the greatest offense ever, does that make the Giants the greatest defense ever. Give credit to the Manning kid, he showed some shutzpa. He should get the MVP, as i wrote this, didn't know who won it. Seems we're still going to endure those 72 Dolphins douchebags
  20. The only way i would have time to do this kind of thing would be to retire or either 80 % of my collection dissapears.
  21. I have put my jazz CD collection on Excel. Now my main problem is that i don't have a printer so i don't have an updated list when i go to the store and i end up buying stuff i already own.
  22. About Legnini own this fine record Too bad, his stuff is only available in importation.
  23. I bought their first album, Betcha Bottom Dollar, way better than their next album that i commented earlier in the thread. Took a look of the credits and was quite proud that this album involved a few local musician. Among the guys i'm familiar with André Leroux who is a fine tenor sax and Benoit Charest who produced this album. Benoit Charest is mostly famous for his involvment in
  24. Margaret Trudeau Mila Mulroney Aline Chrétien
