  1. Yep, the worse about it is that I already knew that, my bad, to my discharge his cd was in the African section of the cd store which created this brain cramp, might as well keep it there as I doubt we start a thread about Indigenous australian music
  2. If that keeps them away, I might as well start drinking
  3. I've heard they are going to give to the lucky one Wynton's integral.
  4. An 80s album but with none of the defects of the music of that era. Arrangements are a bit on the safe side but the guy has a beautiful voice, another great sunday morning record.
  5. For older varied work the Black Saint set that went out on Cam Jazz is tough to beat, the latter album giving us clues what his music would be going to in the future.
  6. Same than Bill, also listening to completely different typesy of music (African , French , Pop, Indy, country etc.) I rarely experiment the feeling of sameness. Of course if you start listening straight away, 6 hours straight of the same guy, then maybe you'll find it repetitive. Even when i buy a box set of a specific artist or formation, between the cds of this set I will listen to something that has ittle relation to the set. Musicologically it makes maybe no sense, but I care little about it , music is about exciting my ears and my brains. Oh yeah, when I get back to an old classic or a favourite of mine a bit like Bill , they still sound fresh. So I guess the trick is to bury your memory of the music and maybe only try to remember the pleasure you had listening to it, ignorance is truly bliss sometimes.
  7. That is exactly how I'm going to remember the man.
  8. Seems the price is the same everywhere else, ended up on a site called Tesco that sells it for the same price.
  9. I linked this video on the 'Return of the Film Corner' thread on July 20 (post 5584) Sorry, I guess I missed it and that is maybe the problem with multi pages thread, things get buried fast , and I thought it deserved a thread of its own
  10. I've tried to link it with the insert media thing so we could see the video from this page but it failed . Quite often when I put a link , depending on the board I'm writing on it becomes automatically alink. So I didn't bother checking how it ended up on the post Geez, tough crowd.
  11. Fun film, nice hommage, now let's play the game.
  12. Guti is also on his way to Besiktas.
  13. I have an acquaintance who actually saw a Sun Ra gig here, when I'll see him I'll ask about it. Too bad the jazzfest is over because it's the time of the year I see him the most
  14. Laurent Blanc has put his money where his mouth is none of the players that were part of the French squad that went to South-Africa were invited back for a friendly against Norway http://www.goal.com/en/news/90/france/2010/07/23/2038787/official-france-coach-laurent-blanc-will-cut-all-23-france-world-
  15. Read about 100 pages so far. Not sure if we are supposed to take the main character at face value but griping and fascinating story nonetheless.
  16. It's a bit like testing negative may actually be a positive
  17. Should be an interesting match, if he has plenty of playing time, the German game could make him look good. By the way Totti will have to explain himself for let's say saying things that it it better left unsaid http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5i9caMtkvUIRNNb883pQIMn_OgI5A For those who are counting the days, 3 weeks before action starts again.
  18. Here's an English link http://communities.canada.com/ottawacitizen/blogs/jazzblog/archive/2010/07/23/rip-willem-breuker.aspx
  19. Wow, very sad and sudden news indeed, saw him with his Kollektief once , , very funny and entertaining show , if you find an English news article or can translate it please do so.
  20. Nothing to add here except a bunch of clichés, good luck guys, wish I had the chance to hear you live.
  21. Among those who have an Oppo, can you confirm that they can play about every kind of video file such as avi, wmv, mkv etc.
  22. Dunga Carlos Alberto Parreira Luiz Felipe Scolari
  23. Most of my writing is in French, but the few boards entry i tried were DF Wallace, got two Raymond Chandler and another like Stephen King. What I fed the system were old boxing reports I used to write on UK sites
  24. Mingus set has found a new home
