EXCUSE ME! Some privacy please!

"I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair..."

Now this is funny!

This isn't jazz either, but Ken Nordine narrated it. I would pay to have this album. Seriously...

Do not adjust your set...

Look! He can ride a Vespa and play a horn at the same time. Oh yeah, and also breathe in outer space...

Buddi Satan, meet Beelzebub. I'd like to see *that* Battle of the Bands...

One more just because...

Enough of this cheesecake. Back to, uh, jazz...

It's like the old joke about what a chair would look like if our knees bent the other way. Or something like that.

Jousting and pin-up girls all on one album cover...

Not jazz, but who the hell cares...

Oh if only her hand was actually on the other chick's ass...

My, that guy's got very attractive vocal chords...

I don't think I wanna know what she's lookin' at...

I do to!

I'm too lazy to check if this was posted previously, but I just stumbled across this one on another site... I can't think of any words to do it justice...

There's a review of this on AMG... http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&u...l=A4zmyxdkb4olg

Six takes of Willie Nelson to start off disc 1? I dunno about that. I think I would have prefered this as a 3 or 4 disc set without all the severe repetition.

It's gonna be hard to not pick up the PC set even though I have most of the material already. The Patton is a must-have, though there doesn't appear to be any "theme" to this set... I'm already falling behind. I still need the Randy Weston box. Guess what I'll be getting for Christmas this year?

Let me put this as delicately as possible. Perhaps this lovely young lady has a personality that is the total opposite of her appearance, one that resembles a bad case of PMS that never ends. In that case, his wanting to spend 44 days in a box by himself is totally understandable. I dunno. I'd simply dump her and shack up with another supermodel girlfriend. But that's just me. If my wife would let me of course...

I've been getting some of those 5-disc Past Perfect "Hall of Fame" box sets from Zwe-whatever in Germany and they've been very nice... and only $5 each!

Back when Napster was around I downloaded a fair amount of stuff, but even there jazz was virtually non-existent (especially the rare and/or oop stuff I was looking for. I've never been able to get Kaaza or any other peer-to-peer groups to even work - and there seems to be even less jazz on them. I can say this: the stuff that I did find (and the music that I'm now downloading - legally - from emusic) has caused me to buy more CDs than ever before. The "problem" with being exposed to new artists is that, if you like what you hear, you want to buy more music by those artists. I think that many of us who like and collect jazz have a hard time understanding the issues that the RIAA has with the general public regarding llegal downloading. Let's face it, the few dozen (even hundreds) who might d/l a Miles Davis album is a drop in the bucket to the hundreds of thousand who might d/l the latest Britney Spears or Radiohead CD.

Considering this is his girlfriend, why the guy wants to spend 44 days in a box by himself is beyond me...
