I see that this is now up on Spotify.

I see that this and the other two Road Shows volumes are now up on Spotify. In addition, there are some Concord-owned items on Spotify. I hadn't noticed Concord-owned recordings on Spotify before.

Conrad, that was my favorite too!

I'll be the first to admit that I've been out of touch for years, but am I the only one here who has never heard of Baccara? http://luufy.com/site/post/574?utm_source=m#.U3gzJXYmSUk

Fans of Mannix may not know that its first season was quite different from the others. As I recall, Mannix worked for a corporation, his boss was Joseph Campanella, and emphasis was put on the use of computers.

Well, AT&T is offering "up to" 6 megabits for $14.95 a month here, so maybe I will give them a call on Monday. Thanks, guys!

I am thinking about reducing the speed of my internet service. I could possibly reduce my monthly bill from $45 to $15. What would you say is the minimum speed necessary to enjoy YouTube and other videos? I do not stream movies, etc. Thanks!

My impulse is to ignore the movie, and buy the book! I've put it on my Amazon wishlist, Chris!

It's been a long time since I've heard anything from them. I guess I should check out what they have been doing.

Happy Birthday 2014 Larry!

This morning I finished Bill Crow's Jazz Anecdotes: Second Time Around. I read the original edition when it was first out many years ago. This has a few new stories, but not many. I noticed that, unlike the first edition, this one did not doubt the sincerity of the blacks who became Muslims in the '40s. Matthew, if you like that one, you will probably like another of Otto Penzler's books, The Black Lizard Big Book of Black Mask Stories. I recommend it!

That's great to know, soulpope! I'm very confident that Downbeat mentioned the baritone, so maybe what it said was something like..."Baritone saxophonist Pat Patrick" rather than "Pat Patrick played the baritone."

Sounds great, Chris! I hope that it spurs interest in your book as well.

I remember reading in Downbeat at the time that Pat Patrick was playing baritone with Monk as Charlie Rouse's replacement.

Here's my update. The first one I went to was called Murphy USA. You can identify the Murphy USA's because they have only a small booth which the employee sits in. The Murphy USA's don't sell gift cards. So I went to two of the other kind of gas station, which is called Murphy Express. The Murphy Expresses have a convenience store along with the gas pumps. This offer is for them. The two employees at the first one didn't know anything about the deal, but they looked it up in their book and verified it. In addition, there was a small sign by the gift cards which said "$5 off all gift cards." This store was sold out of Amazon cards, but had plenty of Visas. It looks like the Visa card has a $3.95 surcharge ("activation fee"), but the clerk waived that. So I picked up a couple. The second Murphy Express was sold out of both the Amazon and Visa cards, but they did have $10 Burger King cards. So I picked up a couple of them.

I love this album! However, a word to the wise. Many here have everything Sonny has put out for the past twenty years. The oldest of the recordings on this record is from 2001. So most of us are already quite familiar with the songs.
