I'd like to point out that the three named tunes were inspired and came directly from the article about "Seasons in the Sun" in Slate that had been posted yesterday. http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...pic=17899&st=0&

From the NYT: So, basically the prosecution had people who claimed that Blake discussed having his wife killed, but couldn't make any connection to the crime other than the circumstantial evidence and the fact that it wasn't exactly a strong marriage. I tend to agree with Allen - the prosecution didn't have much of a case and apparently they couldn't push the ball past "beyond and to the exclusion of all reasonable doubt".

I just said that.

YES! Thank you for thinking of it. David Toma was the man's name.

Anybody here ever have the real inspiration for Barretta appear in their school for his drug lectures? A major event at my High School, four hour assembly of the entire school, and he held us spellbound the entire time; an amazing man.

$25 before the show, $30 at the door.

Inspired by this thread: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...pic=17899&st=0& Which is truly the worst of the worse?

Sneer all you want, but when I was 9 years old, I bought that single, too. Interesting that AMG says: I'd have thought that Shania Twain would have topped his record but I guess not ...

I didn't know who the MJQ was when I first saw them in concert in St. Louis. I had just started on my journey into jazz and my roommate, who tended toward the contemporary side of jazz told me I should go. They played in a sonically amazing space - can't recall the name, I'm sure other people familiar with St. Louis know what I'm thinking of - and I instantly became a fan. And, it was my first exposure to Milt Jackson and that certainly got me started in searching out all the Bags I could find. I'd add this one from their last go-round to the list of recommendations: Some very nice performances from guests Sweets Edison, Wynton, Take 6, Bobby McFerrin. What do folks think of Blues on Bach?

Face facts, Aric: You're mug is on a public website. If you didn't want your picture on the web, then you shouldn't have posed for the Poli-Sci department. There is nothing wrong whatsoever with what SS1 is doing and if you can't take the heat, get out of the kitchen. Or better yet DON'T RIP PEOPLE OFF ON TRADES SO YOU DON'T EARN YOURSELF A LIFE-LONG ENEMY.

Well.....I can tell you that I listened to it a few times prior to reading the liners. It didn't sound like one is attached. Then I read the notes and it mentions that he does indeed use it. It also says that it was "used lightly". I really can't hear it at all....nice recording! I'll take your word for it, Mark, and this one will definitely be on my 'watch list'. thanks.

Thanks, SW. Have to take exception to this statement by the author: Two comments: I don't think Cedar Walton ever moved beyond the "hard bop convention". In terms of the "broadening" of the base of his sidemen goes, it seems to me there's a chicken and egg question. One might equally say that the pool of Blue Note affiliated players broadened and therefore Hank's pool of sidemen broadened.

Is that the Delmark release? I'm wondering about that one. Can you confirm that there's no varitone sax on it? Thanks Mark.

I was going to post about this, great album from my high school days!

They say that confession is good for the soul, so here goes: When this reissue came out and a lot of people on the board went ape shit over it, I will be the first to admit that I was curious about it. At the same time, however, Chuck was being a major league pain in my ass and I had no interest in giving my money to him. So, I didn't pick this up. I still didn't want to give Chuck my money directly, but last week I added this to a Cadence order. My exposure to Warne had previously been limited to one of the Criss Cross CDs, but after giving All Music a couple of listens, I can definitely say that I am intrigued and will be spending more time with this one soon. Will I turn into a Warnophile? Can't tell yet, but I'm definitely glad I finally picked this up.

I think I picked this up during the last Barnes and Noble $3.99 Concord cut-out sale. Should be noted that while its on Concord, it was recorded in the sixties but not issued then. Don't recall off hand the story of how it got to be issued on Concord, but this isn't one of those Concord "recreate the past" type of dates.

Different and horrible! Purple and grey and downright yucky!

Indeed! Might I suggest, however, that for the next installment, or when you are finished with all of the typing, that we put this into one big post as the start of a new thread? I think a lot of people will want to read this article and it should properly accorded its own thread.

104th St and Central Park West, Chris? Guess ole Weizy isn't quite right, putting you as a high rent midtown kinda guy ...

There will be no cage for this guy, not for the rest of his life. This is Georgia, and there's no way he avoids the death penalty.

I hear Freddie as more "technical" and Lee as more "soulful". That and what Tom mentions, which I've also heard referred to as "smears" or "smearing notes." Definitely a Lee thing rather than a Hub thing.

Seeing this thread, I assumed that he is the "1ngram" who fills the Political Forum with views that make Johnny look like Jesse Helms (and its no surprise you'd miss him, Jim, as he posts in Politics at a rate that easily challenged Johnny's supremacy in that regard).

In whose favor?

And tjobbe, so is yours. B-)

Very surprising. But I'm sure though that they don't get any co-op advertising dollars from any label, so there isn't much to be done about them.
