I described my listening room above but this describes my actual listening 99% of the time.

Apparently limited to Florida but planning a national franchise roll-out, for table-service burger-centric restaurants its tough to beat Lindburgers. I just try to forget that their namesake was a hideous racist and anti-Semite.

He didn't write very clearly but "confirm the rumor" means "yes its true" not "we don't put biblical references on their packages. Five Guys just moved in to South Florida (sounds like a bad set up for a joke) - I think the fries are OK but generally over-salted, my wife would really prefer it if the burgers could be cooked to order but overall I do give thumbs up to the meat.

When we bought our house in 2004 there were three extra bedrooms, and one became my music room with the stereo system, the comfy chair and a variety of BN covers (from the first BN cover art book after the binder fell apart) on the wall. I posted photos back then but I think the thread was lost in one of those server migrations.

For me its Joe Williams, followed by Armstrong and Sinatra, and on the female side it begins and ends with Ella.

What Lon said.

Its great to see a release like this, and that labels are willing to invest in a project like this, since they have to know that they'll be ripped off by pirates in no time. And yes, Mike, early Mel Rhyne is a cool bonus!

That's cool news though I wish there was some indication of the quality of the tape other than saying "fully restored".

I'm not a moderator and I don't play one on TV but the rules of this forum are that entire articles cannot be posted. Members are supposed to post a small sampling of the article and provide a link to the remainder, and aloc, you violate this rule about a half a dozen times a week.

Yeah, I didn't think about the decent selling albums they had before it fell apart.

Given how Riverside struggled I doubt it was a tax dodge.

:party:

Thanks. I think you are speaking of this album of which there are couple on Ebay right now.

Or if you have Real Player, it will pop up a link "Download this video" on any video that you land on, Youtube or otherwise, and you can save it to your hard drive.

Got $18 in yesterday's mail, just in time for the suddenly announced "Secret Santa" gift exchange with the $20 limit. :party:

GA, one way or another, he's found the answer to the big mystery ... Highly ironic that the last article he published was about the falsity of the statement "that which does not kill me makes me stronger". I guess that was the writing on the wall. I'll miss his writings, even the 20-30% I disagreed with.

That Roddy McDowell LP gives me a late idea for Christmas present, if I could find it ...

Proof that Bob wasn't lying when he told me that profits from big hits on Prestige got plowed back into new labels and new recordings. But no RVG Series on these?

Don't you guys know clicking on links that say "Lindsay Lohan Playboy Shots" is risky?

I didn't say I don't like you. Only that I can't remotely understand you.

Just out of curiousity, is the suicide rate in the Netherlands particularly high compared to the rest of the world? In the spirit of the season, have you seen "Its a Wonderful Life"? Or is that also phony? Jesus, you barely acknowledge that Henry Grimes last few years is a "good" story. Just let me be direct: What the fuck is the matter with you?

:party:

I'd find it entertaining if someone put a pitch in his ribs for acting like an ass after the ump gave him the gift strike call.

I guess that a combination of Florida's reputation for ridiculous laws combined with the ubiquity of Buffett cover bands made this post seem plausibly serious. For the record, Florida does not require that public music performers be licensed, and there is no obligation that they prove that they can play at least two Jimmy Buffett tunes. It just seems that way. But I can play "Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes" and "Cowboy In The Jungle".

I like it, but I'd also understand if Sonny's detractors think its perfectly fitting, a platform for a lot of writing about nothing named after a jazz man who never played a whole lot of nothing. Right, Brian?
