  1. This is the main reason that I don't even THINK about buying Mosaic sets. For me, the album cover art is an integral part of the listening experience. I simply don't experience the music in the same way.
  2. Machito - With Flute to Boot - Roulette (mono) Flute and arrangements by Herbie Mann.
  3. I'm a monophile, but his endorsement is enough to make me want to seek out a stereo copy.
  4. Was RCA doing LPs in 1951 or before? JIM FLORA COVER ART!!!
  5. Ever hear the bit where they want to open a "hell" theme park and pay a guy to remain in a pit with live snakes?
  6. Maybe Pat Metheny is mixing up his own cult with the "cult of jazz." They don't necessarily overlap.
  7. Some comedy albums I've wanted that have eluded me: "How to Speak Hip" by Del Close and John Brent Coyle and Sharp - 2 LPs on WB (IIRC) Brother Theodore - 2 LPs: (Theodore in an) Entertainment of Sinister and Disconcerting Humor (1955) "Proscenium 21 Recorded at Carnegie Hall on May 21, 1955 at Midnight" 33 1/3 RPM 12" and 10" (rare) Side A: Tears from a Glass Eye Side B: With a Tongue of Madness Coral Records Presents...Theodore (in Stereo) (1959) Coral Records CRL 57322 33 1/3 RPM 12" Side A: 1) Introduction and Berenice 2) The Willow Landscape 3) Curse of the Toad Side B: 1) Quadrupedism Brother Theodore was a riot. There are some Letterman clips on Youtube. I love that late 50s/early 60s era of comedy, when white, middle class, suburban US society was starting to come apart at the seams.
  8. I must have a lot of the same album.
  9. How does it compare to African Beat, Orgy in Rhythm and Drum Suite?
  10. GOT IT! I'm technologically challenged. Thanks all for your help!
  11. I chose "manually manage music" through iTunes. However, I can't pull up a list of tunes my computer (the various music choices are greyed out), and the iPod says "Connected" so I can't see the track menu on there. How do I see the song menu on the iPod while it's connected, so I can manually delete tunes via the keyboard?
  12. Being that they ran both tape and disc, its likely that discs were used on some of these issues. The Chico O'Farrill "Cuban Blues" collection states so, but it does not say one which tunes, nor if tapes were made at the time that were lost/damaged/destroyed.
  13. Not sure I can give you specific dates until I dig out LPs and/or CDs, but offhand Bird, Diz, Bud, and Chico O'Farrill come to mind. I had a Bud Powell Verve 2fer from the 70s (Genius of Bud Powell) with surface noise on a couple of tracks (within the transfers). Years later, I found a second pressing of this album where this had been corrected. I've found varying quality between CD issues and LP issues also. I wonder if tapes had ever been mislabeled or misplaced and found later.
  14. Really? A lot of LB's exotica stuff hasn't even made it to CD. The double CD "Exotic Moods" from Capitol went out of print and fetches big bucks on the interwebs. All of the exotica albums go for a lot on eBay, also.
