  1. The back of the Jarrett shirt says "You are not worthy to wear this article of clothing with my name emblazoned on it!"
  2. Now if I could only get the "Clem into English" translator plug in...
  3. So, did Andrew concoct the false bio?
  4. But it makes a great holder for cardboard boxes! Stacked from floor to ceiling the last time I saw it!
  5. Shawn

    Melba liston

    A personal favorite, Melba arranged approx half of the songs on the album, the other half arranged by Norman Simmons. DEFINITELY worth getting!
  6. Taj Mahal - During a break between songs Taj was talking to the crowd when a guy in the balcony yelled "Down with Whitey"...Taj shot him a look of death and preceded to rip the guy a new one. "Why would you want to say some ignorant shit like that, it's cats like you that are the problem...", etc. The guy slinked out of the venue quietly...
  7. WOW! Man, I'd love to see Golson & Griffin together. Maybe Griff could sit in with Steely Dan!
  8. The first CD reissue was the same way (pulled from the LP master), they later corrected that on the digipak release...and it makes a WORLD of difference.
  9. Well let me admit right here in public that I watched the Donnie & Marie show RELIGIOUSLY when I was kid...she was a little bit country (well...not really...but cute) and he was a little bit rock n roll (well...not even close...). I'm not sure how I was able to recover and lead a semi-normal existence...
  10. Where's Michigan? Is it in the States?
  11. Sure! It's the moaning BEFORE sex that's usually the problem.
  12. Spinning this one now (online peer pressure is a great thing) and all I can say is...HELL YEAH! This might be one of those discs that I got that never made it out of my "to be played pile"...I've lost quite a few into that void over the years. Man, where have I been? It's going to be in my "to be played frequently pile" for awhile!
  13. Easily one of my favorites. After seeing it I would have "Kill Da Wabbit" stuck in my head for days... Not sure which cartoon it's from (it's one of those haunted hotel things) but one of my favorite lines is Porky calling Sylvester..."You poltroon of a chicken cat, you".
  14. Okay, so I notice that I don't have much by him in my collection...thinking I need to remedy that. Where's a good place to start? Thanks
  15. I'm quite fond of this one. No question to me that Vince is jazz. No question that Vince plays enjoyable music. No question that jazz CAN be fun every once in awhile. Not every artist HAS to push any envelopes, break down barriers, carry the torch of social outcry, make the world rethink the definition of music or save the fucking planet. Sometimes it's okay to just put a smile on people's faces and get their foot tapping.
  16. This one RIPS...
  17. Happy Birthday! Will spin this one when I get home...
  18. I know I've mentioned these guys before...but there's a new album, so... Good stuff, hard to define...that's why I like it.
  19. The easiest way to update your sale list is to just keep editing your first post. You can make the changes and save it, then you don't have to re-paste the list over and over. Some nice discs there, if I wasn't broke I'd take you up on a couple.
  20. How much for the inflatable gorilla?
  21. In retrospect, it's hard to believe there was a time when Phil Collins could have been involved in such a cool record. Don't let Aric...er..."Chewy" see this post...
  22. Karl Denson - McDonald's combo meal #2
  23. I haven't grabbed this one yet but definitely intend to. If anyone asks me for a "definitive" example of jazz guitar, Burrell is the guy! Burrell's "fire" has always been a quiet one, he's probably one of the tastiest players I've ever heard. He co-exists in that universe of truly soulful cats like Stanley Turrentine, Blue Mitchell, Wynton Kelly...
  24. Am I the only one who thinks this is a massively paranoid crock of shit?
