  1. Hey... I thought you were riding your bike to work, even in the winter!! Not today, huh?
  2. Great show! Thanks, Lazaro.
  3. NOAA Home Page - Weather Portal Check out the "Local Forecast" (use your ZIP code) -- lots of good information there. Also, the National Weather Service Enhanced Radar Image "National Mosaic" is pretty interesting, especially using the "Loop Image" option.
  4. I really enjoy the two Astor Place releases -- Composer (1996) and Roots (1997). All songs "composed and arranged by Cedar Walton".
  5. Sweet! That's gotta be at least a 10-CD set, right?
  6. Sure, thanks! PM me if you need me to re-send my address to you. It's on its way, bro... enjoy!
  7. Al, I have the "Bird's Best Bop on Verve" CD, and I don't need it anymore, as I recently purchased the Complete Master Takes Set. It's yours if you want it....
  8. BUY BOTH OF THEM.... RIGHT NOW!! (no snide comments this time, Big Al. you won't regret this purchase!) Also, here's another recommendation: Yardbird Suite - The Ultimate Collection.
  9. The driving discussion reminds me of some wonderful, evocative passages in "But Beautiful", by Geoff Dyer. Oh, and the music is pretty good, too!
  10. Oh, man. That's just wrong. Painful.
  11. Also 86.1%. "Excellent musical abilities".
  12. What? I'll one up Aggie -- I saw them in '78, Cobo Hall, Detroit. All four original members. My first concert... 12 years old. Regarding the DVD... Jim said it best: Gene $immon$ never $top$ dreaming up new way$ to make $$$, that'$ for $ure!
  13. Just put an orange slice in your Guinness, and quit complainin'... ya bunch of friggin' whiners!
  14. Thanks for the help, B. Clugston & Late!
  15. Any thoughts on this one? Archie Shepp & Roswell Rudd -- Live in New York Cyrille - Drums, Grachan Moncur III (tb), Reggie Workman (b) I see there was an earlier discussion about this recording, but not much about Cyrille specifically.
  16. Dang, ain't that the truth! Anybody have recommendations for the best place to buy these online, in the US? Not much chance of finding these in any brick-n-mortars around here.
  17. The risks of opening pdf files are certainly much less than self-extracting exe files, but... being infected by a pdf is possible.
  18. A recommendation for Big "No Armstrong" Al: Louis Armstrong & Duke Ellington: The Great Summit-The Master Takes
  19. Almost as bad as Celine Dion - You Shook Me All Night Long
  20. Early, rejected Andrew Hill titles: An Irrational Need to Perform Some Action, Often Despite Negative Consequences! Insistent, Repetitive, Unwanted Urge!! Repetitive, Ritualistic Behavior!!! Uncontrollable Impulse!!!!
  21. Lee Morgan: The Certified Public Accountant (attributed to BruceH... still cracks me up three years later! )
  22. Really enjoyed the show, Joe. Be sure to let all of us know if you and Dave have any upcoming gigs -- would love to hear you guys live.
  23. Still waiting for the "Working for the Weekend"... you can still rock in America, Joe...
  24. nice!
