  1. Thanks, Michael!
  2. I had no idea she recorded for Reprise. Was that in the mid-'60s?
  3. I've been listening to this the past few days, and I've been enjoying it. It's a piano trio, but because the bassist is the leader, he's louder than the bass usually is. That aspect reminds me of Scott LaFaro with Bill Evans.
  4. Happy Birthday 2015 trane_fanatic!
  5. It sounded to me like The Four Tops sang "Sugar Pie, Honey Bunch" instead of "Sugar Pie, Honey Bun."
  6. Happy Birthday Mike!
  7. I have received a PM from Hans assuring me that he is alive and well!
  8. This article says that Carlsberg is working on a bottle which is100% biodegradable, including the cap. I've always understood that the argument in favor of glass is that it in no way changes the taste of the bottle's contents. So I guess we will see if Carlsberg can create a non-glass container which similarly will not change the taste. http://www.foxnews.com/leisure/2015/02/20/carlsberg-is-developing-on-clinking-biodegradable-beer-bottle/?intcmp=features
  9. I have received a PM informing me that Hans passed away last year. Is this true?
  10. Happy Birthday 2015 Hans!
  11. Happy Birthday 2015 Alan!

  19. TTK, personally, I prefer Monk's Prestige recordings (a 3-CD box) to his Columbia work.
