Maybe its just me but "archival release" doesn't cover a concert from 10 years ago. This maybe exciting for some but I still hold out hope for something from a BN artist from the Left Bank tapes or something like that.

Honest injun, I got a plan for listening this week.

Took a bit more than that and had I not found the original box with instructions inside I'd still be clueless about getting it to output audio.

got it to work!

Does anyone have a micro-cassette player they could loan out to me? Long story short, I am in contact with board member Listeningtoprestige who is working on a book about the label. Years ago Chris Albertson put me in touch with Bob Weinstock who sat for a fairly length interview. Nothing came of it ultimately and my search for the audio to share turned up two digital files that are at most, 1/2 of what I recorded. I finally found what I am sure are the micro-cassettes but alas, the old micro-cassette player has bitten the dust. And Amazon shows that true mini-cassette devices are now over $100! So I am hoping someone has one that is functional and can ship to me so I can output the tapes to digital. I would gladly pay your shipping costs to send to me. Please DM. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the reminder ... I will do my darndest to listen and post (weakly) this weekend.

About a week from 81 games in the books and the division races are almost all a joke. You have the Yankees and Orioles in a legit race, and Minnesota and the Royals trying to hang on against Cleveland at 6-6.5 games back and every other race you can practically book right now. Maybe that changes but it seems like this season's stretch drive will be among weak-ass teams battling for last WC spot.

Not to derail the thread but I recently tipped into the "diabetic" A1C from a steady "pre-diabetic" state before. Treating as wake up call to fix diet; a friend had same thing happen a short while before, he made dietary changes and first new measurement afterwards was lowest in years. Hoping to duplicate his results.

Well that proves how different a world it is. Calling the catcher "motherfucker" is an invite for a very high and very tight fastball not that long ago. And its somewhat amusing to think that "motherfucker" isn't as bad, in this context, as saying "it was a ball, bitch."

Intrigued. Thanks for posting.

Number one, if a robo ump were in use, they wouldn't miss calls. So the question is moot. Number two (and its 6 am, speakers are off, I was reading lips myself - if he was audible on the game microphone then I am wrong - but I don't think you punctuate a correction with "motherfucker" and are in the box for the next pitch. More likely he said "motherfuck".

I suggest you follow his channel. He does a lot of lip reading and seems very accurate. Not sure his secret. There have been other posts of his "breakdowns" and they almost always feature lip reading.

This is pretty darn funny/entertaining

Pretty certain that having volumes 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 of 7 volume series is an indication that there was interest in the series, now or in the past. Who wants to start with 1 and 2 knowing that 3 doesn't exist at the library? I agree completely with Kevin at least on his example.

I intend to make sure my wife knows to contact Dusty Groove or maybe the SC seller whose name escapes me now, to come and take a look at it all and make a fair offer. f they aren't impossibly cheap on the offer it will be worth it. I've also thought about marking certain LPs, mostly blues, that I think are not run-of-the-mill and worth something.

Not that I want to search out a Madonna recording but where does this come from?

I had absolutely no clue that the same guy wrote "hooked on a feeling" "suspicous minds" and "Always on My Mind". That's some serious talent. RIP.

Or garbage! Gotta be one or the other.

Agreed and fewer still want to put their necks out and make comments on unfamiliar music. I feel like I should also point out that right now September remains open for this year.

I know I usually contribute (poorly) but its been a rough start to June and I will be out of town this weekend ... I hope to listen and post sometime after.

and with Ben Webster, and Jackie Mac and many others.

I never put his birth name together with the photo below, until now. RIP (and hope people enjoy bonus of a Roland Alexander photo, who I see was mentioned as his steady partner in music in the obit linked above).

"Lingering forearm discomfort" is what mlb.com says. If you can't beat 'em, let 'em have a load of devastating injuries like we have! Sorry can't resist. And karma can't bite the Red Sox any worse than it already has. He made a couple of throws to second base in the top of the fifth, one from the right-field corner on Alex Kirilloff’s double, and another on Carlos Santana’s RBI single. The velocity on Soto’s throws on those plays was 75.3 mph and 58.4 mph, respectively.
