COVID-19 III: No Politics For Thee
medjuck replied to ghost of miles's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
I carry a mask in my car and use it on shopping trips but every so often forget to wear it when interacting with people. As soon as I realize it I feel terribly guilty because I could easily have gotten the virus, be asymptomatic and be spreading it to people I'm interfacing. -
I think we're all posting the same article. I didn't notice it in The Times. Friend from Toronto posted it on FB.

Paul Desmond/Ed Bickert Mosaic - NOW AVAILABLE
medjuck replied to bebopbob's topic in Mosaic and other box sets...
I ordered it within hours of getting the e-mail and still haven't received a shipping notice even though my credit card was debited last week. I asked for UPS: is there some discount to them for sending all the California ones at once? -
Beatle Books
medjuck replied to Dave James's topic in Jazz In Print - Periodicals, Books, Newspapers, etc...
No-- a mistake. I'm trying to post a picture of a book but can't seem to get it to work via Postimage. I bought this book remaindered for a couple of dollars many years ago but and find i refer to it often. -
Jazz musicians that have cameos in films.
medjuck replied to Hardbopjazz's topic in Miscellaneous Music
IIRC (and I often don't) it's a jazz Othello. Not a film, but isn't there an episode of "Route 66" with Coleman Hawkins is seen playing clarinet? Yes! I just found this on Youtube. With Jo Jones on trumpet and Roy Eldridge on drums! (Excuse all the exclamation points. ). Ethel Walters was the first Black actress to receive and Emmy nomination for her role. Gerry Mulligan, Sam Butera and Joe Bushkin in "The Rat Race". -
Here's some good advice about how to act when we do re-open: https://www.erinbromage.com/post/the-risks-know-them-avoid-them?fbclid=IwAR2Z37gXzJYnsa-54XKubYRcsbDrtZONILoA6DSRDWTnYxlXfbSs3y5BkH8 Nightclubs!? 7200 people in 5 of them!!? WTF! You can begin reopening without allowing that.

And If those right were available to the Brits they would have had the right to keep their lights on during the Blitz.

It looked that way but it was advertised as the restored version. BTW I forgot to mention it was written by Roy Huggins who created The Fugitive.
-
Yeh, gotta watch out for those old people and black people.
-
They're not to protect you, they're to protect the people you might infect. Oh, but you're the guy who thinks it's all a hoax.

BTW I recently mailed a DVD with no packaging but inside a card to a friend on a remote Island in Canada. Between the US and Canadian post offices and potentially customs I never really expected it to arrive. To my surprise it got there in a little more than a week. I'd just put a forever international stamp on it which I think costs a dollar. Maybe if you don't use cases you can send a cd and liner notes in a regular envelope for the cost of a first class stamp.

Doesn't seem like much of a hardship to me.

May COVID poll - previous questions updated
medjuck replied to Dan Gould's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Or someone who had a bad case but survived. -
I was hoping that you were going to tell me that "Brazilliance" had been a hit.
-
It's also streaming on Amazon Prime. I watched it and it is great, but it looks like they couldn't find very good materials for the restoration. I've never seen a tv broadcast of such a high contrast film or one with as many jump-cuts because of missing frames. And considering the ban here on politics why don't you change your signatures? Chris Albertson died a year ago.

what are you drinking right now?
medjuck replied to alocispepraluger102's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
My wife has wanted to make this drink for a couple of weeks. Finally had all the ingredients: Frozen cucumber margaritas with chili sumac salt -
I admit it: I probably first heard Little Richard songs via Elvis-- maybe even Pat Boone. But in 1956 when I was 13, a friend got this record: and being a pedant even then, I noted that some guy named R. Penniman got writing credit on most of the songs-- all of which I loved. Seeing "The Girl Can't Help It" in Sydney Nova Scotia on New Year's Eve that year sealed the deal.
-
What was the hit?
-
He also never recorded until several years after Little Richard so we'll never know what he sounded like pre-Little Richard. Notice that Little Richard has taken an authorship credit on his recording. And both recordings owe a lot to Lieber & Stoller's "Charlie Brown" as well as Danny and the Junior's "At the Hop".

Jerry Lee Lewis really is ( as one of his records says) The Last Man Standing.

Stanley Crouch is fighting the COVID-19 virus, and has been hospitalized twice (he’s currently at NewYork-Presbyterian/Columbia University Hospital). He is receiving the best hospital care possible, and the doctor I spoke this morning said that Stanley is eating on his own, receiving less oxygen than yesterday, and seems to be rallying. If anyone can do it, he can. Sorry, I can't seem to format this. Got it off of Loren Schoenberg's FB page.
-
According to Buchmann-Moeller's discography Feb 22, 1950. Loren Schoenberg just says 1950-51. Jesse Drakes, Kenny Drew, Aaron Bell, Jo Jones.

I'm a moldy fig about Prez-- I much prefer his earlier to his later work, but just to prove me wrong there's this.

There's a video making the rounds in which Dr. Fauci explains why civilians shouldn't wear masks. But it was made at the time when they were trying to save masks for medical personal. He keeps saying "right now". Of course it's being used by all the Yahoos who think this is a hoax. BTW Dan, I'd be curious to see the results of another survey about how many friends have had it or died. (Maybe you did one and I missed it.).
