Free For All

Mine arrived today. A beautiful set at a great price, well worth the wait.

Maria Schneider mentions Khachaturian as an influence- the second movement of the Piano Concerto supposedly inspired her to write her tune Gush (from her first CD).

There ya go...

Giants look awful. Looks like another home team is going down (look out, Pittsburgh!)

Happy Bleadenday!

Cards/Eagles & Ravens/Chargers winners play the SB. Wouldn't THAT be some shit? Lots of birds!

After my holiday sojourn to the midwest I have to say I'm not hatin' the lack of winter here. Of course, the dues here come in the summer. Not missin' winter a lot, though......

Well, I for one was shocked to see Tennessee and Carolina fold in such spectacular fashion. I thought they'd both win. So are the Eagles going to win tomorrow? The Bolts?

.....and don't leave out Curtis in that Trane pic! Great stuff, Chris.

I think the keyboard player was doing pipes AND lines.

Man, Delhomme had a major playoff meltdown tonight (30-7, 4th Q). I think they should let the PP&K kids play. EDIT: Pick in the end zone. He's toast.

Damn, tough day for the home teams! Delhomme is having a terrible night. I don't think Carolina will be able to catch up (still 3rd quarter).

Happy Birthday Patricia!

Nice program- thanks for sharing it, TF. Looks like it was a great service, lots of great music. Also love that album cover montage!

Boasting! Especially if you call him Dick.

Bob Brookmeyer did a great arrangement for big band.

It's funny, I canceled my order yesterday and today suddenly got a "shipped" notice.

I gave up a while back and they refunded my money. Ah well, guess I should follow suit. At least I got a brand new Ayler Revenant set for a $12 "Buy It Now" price last year on eBay, can't win them all. I just bailed too. Bummer.

Happy Birthday!

I agree--the best version I've heard features the Kind of Blue edition of the Miles Davis group, it's on the CD '58 Sessions. One of my favorite moments in recorded jazz happens right at the beginning of the second chorus when Trane comes in and Jimmy & PC start to walk at that medium tempo. Sublime.

That's because he's one better than a ten.

Damn, Noj.........
