Free For All

I liked that recording- Kenny Werner did all the arrangements, and it did have a Gil Evans-ish tone to it. I was also wondering recently about what happened to Hollyday.

H B H G !! ....and many more!

FUCK, Joe! I'm so sorry. Shit like this just shouldn't happen to people. "Stuff" can be replaced, and I'm glad you and Rachel are safe, but I know this hurts. It's a violation of your space and loss of important personal items that probably aren't of much value to the fucking scum who took them. Sometimes this world is a very disappointing place. But you also get to choose what brings you down, and while this experience is a big fucking drag (I really don't "get" people sometimes) I have faith that you shall persevere. I can't imagine the feeling you must have had as you realized what had happened....... Are you out in the boonies? Any neighbors close by who might have seen anyone? All the best to you and Rachel. You shall overcome, my friend! I'm so sorry....

What does that sound like? Sorry, I removed my post. Need to think about this some more.

That would be assuming he's wearing pants in the first place.

Are we talking about the same thing? Since I moved to hot & humid Florida my box has gone downhill fast. Fortunately I have all the CDs and booklet separately stored, I just keep the box as sort of a science project.

BTW, I'll donate again if Jim promises to sing "You'll Never Walk Alone" at some point.

Payment sent. Thanks again for providing such a great place to hang, Jim! As much of a pain as this place can be for you, Jim, I'd sure hate to see it go away. It's definitely the most fun, informative and well-tempered of all the jazz sites IMHO. Keep up the good work, my man! Cheers to Organissimo!

Way to go, Conn!

A sure thing.

Actually, the Big Ten pretty much sucks this year. Yet, they have the No. 1 ranked team in the country right now. Weird. We'll see how long that lasts- Ohio State has upcoming away games at Michigan and Penn State, and Wisconsin and Illinois at home. I've given up doing anything but taking it all one week at a time- this is the craziest season I've ever seen, and it's made the NCAA much more interesting than this season's NFL games, IMHO. It would be pretty wild to see USF in that #1 spot, wouldn't it?

The Pats have a pretty soft schedule for the rest of the season- looks like the 11/4 game w/Indy will be a biggie, especially if both teams are still undefeated at that point. Indy has a much tougher schedule ahead. NE simply looks unstoppable!

Kenny Dorham, Virgil Jones- trumpet Jimmy Heath-tenor Tommy Flanagan- piano Ron Carter- bass Connie Kay-drums Invitation Too Close For Comfort Ruby, My Dear (2 takes) The Sealer Poom-A-Loom Stella By Starlight Ruby None Shall Wander (2 takes) An excellent side, IMHO. Aha! With Virgil Jones! Zowie! Thanks. MG FYI, Virgil plays on two cuts.

Up for another birthday! Hope you feel better today than on this day last year! Happy Birthday John!

Schulz PEAnuts! Schulz PEAnuts!

I logged off three times today. Too much fiber, perhaps?

No worries, it had nothing to do with you! Enjoy your day!

I'mm a fann.

Shit, I missed it! Happy Birthday, TD, no matter what Mark may have said about you before. You should have seen it, he TOTALLY went off on him!

Happy birThDay!

Good choices both, beef!

Once again I apologize for derailing a perfectly good thread. Oh, and.....
