  1. Thanks. I think it was her. BTW I don't think she was his first wife.
  2. Is there a list out there of what OOP albums they have? Or any recommendations?
  3. I think you're right. I wonder what Betty thought? .. or maybe she had left by then and he dug it back out of the storage box. Did I read here once that Fran works at the Hamburger Hamlet on the Sunset Strip? I was there about a month ago and the hostess looked like it could have been her. Didn't want to ask.
  4. Right....and according to one of those who was attacked, seems like there were alot of other Jews on the train who didn't bother to do anything. Geez, how come? I dunno but I guess you think you do. So tell us.
  5. Happy B'day and many more!!!
  6. Any word on Mosaic's plan for the Ellington Columbias?
  7. I think the best print of it as at the UCLA tv archive. Given to them by Jack Smight the director. Maybe you could borrow it for a restoration. (Fat chance-- but I do know the head of the archive who's a music fan and I'll ask him the next time I see him. No-one should hold their breath.
  8. I second that. I was about to ask the same thing.
  9. e-mail : joe@futurshock.com (notice no 'e' in futurshock-- I was never good at spelling.) Wow. I'm stunned . Like to thank Jim a lot. Like to help set up a new forum but right now I have no time-- starting a new film which means 16 hour days and now no Organissimo to look forward to when I get home. Can still send money if needed. And if nothing comes of attempts to revive or replace the board I''m going to miss all you guys. I've come to regard this board as my facebook page. I may have to get a real one.
  10. Hey my wife tells me the Hampton set arrived at my home today! Unfortunately (to quote Bob Dylan) I'm not there.
  11. Just got their printed catalogue in the mail. So did my wife! What list were they using? Is there one of women who's husbands buy too many cds? Anyway: I'm thinking of buying the 2 Shelly Mannes at the Blackhawk i don't have and then might as well get $50 worth. Soooo.. I like what the catalogue says about the Monk at the 5 Spot twofer. Any one recommend it? Or anything else? Especially the OOPs.
  12. I hope this means that there will be a DVD releaseof it. I tried to get a legitimate release of it through CBS who own it but they claimed that the Musicians Union wanted way too much money. (The musicians were hired for a tv show only.) I wanted to add Milt Hinton's photos from that day and to interview Nat Hentoff. I'd still like to hear what Hentoff has to say: I know he's very proud of it but I'd like to know more about the tv show and the Lp that came out: eg: why aren't Monk and Gerry Mulligan on the record? I think I read somewhere that Mulligan wanted double scale. I presume they just thought Monk was too far out.
  13. Reminded me of the novels of Alan Furst (though I've only read a couple). Except that Melville is even colder.
  14. Is Who's Next considered late Who? I like it better than anything before or after. Saw them at their first gig after the death of Moon. In a small bull ring (is that possible?) outside Cannes. Loved it but was with a friend who'd seen them before and said it could never be the same without Moon.
  15. Am I the only one who liked the old design better?
  16. I felt pretty much the same way the first time I saw it, but seeing it a second time with no expectations to be thwarted I wasn't as unhappy about the ending.
  17. \\ I thought it was going to be John Coltrane!
  18. Probably makes most of his money from capital gains or dividends both of which are taxed at 15% in the US.
  19. If I remember it correctly on the witness stand during the trial of the Chicago 8 (7?) he made the profound declaration "nuance is everything".
  20. As I recall this was an argument made by Bush but there is not one documented case of anyone having to sell a farm because of estate taxes. (Actually as I write this it seems to me unlikely that there aren't some small farmers with $4M in assests-- maybe they get special depreciation allowances or something. )
  21. Sorry to hear that. Hope she gets the cast off soon. Don't beat youself up-- it seems to be part of growing up. My daughter was in and out ofthe emergency rooms with broken bones, sprains and even burns. She's now 21 and doing fine. (Strangely my son-- who's younger-- had many fewer injuries, though he did break his wrist once.)
  22. I've nver been to Safari Sam's before, but I'll try to make this date! I missed you guys the last time around, and am kicking myself for doing so. Cheers, Shane I did see you last time through and IO'm going to try to see you again!
  23. Thnink they'll do a box set of his last years at Columbia?
  24. This is UK only right? And BTW it sure isn't all there titles yet.
