mjzee, first you go to Amazon Local and buy the voucher for $0. Then you redeem the voucher and get a code. Then you redeem the code, and your credit shows up like it has in the past.

LOL Pete!

Let's bump this up for today's free $3 Amazon credit. Anybody got anything else for less than $3 or so?

Groove Holmes

Happy Birthday 2012 GP!

I've had a chance to listen to the new Lyrical, Vol. 1, and I think that if it were on a major label, it would have a good chance of being a top ten-selling jazz album of the year. Suggs wrote the lyrics to all of the songs. Most of the songs are mainstream jazz classics, like Armageddon, Footprints, Infant Eyes, Ceora, Stablemates, Virgo and Lady Bird. I like the songs, and I like Suggs' singing, so I like the album. I'm confident that it will get plenty of airplay on Sirius.

I've found a couple more. The Essence of George Russell - $1.78 http://www.amazon.com/The-Essence-Of-George-Russell/dp/B002BLZXY4/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&coliid=I3DW2EG2183478&colid=RVSBV717YT9 ***** George Russell - Electronic Sonata - 1968 - $1.78 http://www.amazon.com/Electronic-Sonata-1968/dp/B002BLW5NQ/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&coliid=I1GM5T4P8U66XG&colid=RVSBV717YT9

Gregg Xenakes Week 2 picks http://www.sportsnetwork.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4511203 ***** Jon Cornish celebrated the Higgs Boson today at practice with cake! http://www.cflblogzone.com/2012/07/jon-cornish-discusses-the-higgs-boson-nik-lewis-talks-about-r-jazz-also-picks-rankings%E2%80%A6/

Happy Independence day 2012, everyone! Pete, Canadians celebrate their being bumped up from colonial to dominion status in the British Empire on July 1, 1867, Dominion Day. The 1967 World's Fair commemorated the centennial. In recent years the fellows who changed the flag also renamed the holiday Canada Day. So far, the red-blooded Canadians haven't pushed back, but we'll see.

I'd rather use "Four In One". Or "Trinkle, Tinkle". Did it shout "Guarachi Guaro" too? I think so, yes.

I've never downloaded a ringtone, but a few years ago I had the opportunity (with Virgin Mobile) to use Cal Tjader's Soul Sauce.

Ben Davidson, the face of the Oakland Raiders players, has died at age 72. http://www.foxnews.com/sports/2012/07/03/former-raiders-player-ben-davidson-dies-at-72-prostate-cancer/?test=latestnews

The actor who played Floyd played Doc on the radio Gunsmoke. Howard McNear.

Larry, is there a story you would like to share with us?

This far into the thread, and no one has mentioned La Cage aux Folles yet!

Thanks F! Interesting that it wasn't copyrighted until 1963, 9 years after Solar was recorded. And I agree with Mark re the pronunciation of solar. It's stupid.

TTK, a few years ago I read (I'm pretty sure it was an interview with Jobim) that Jobim was well aware of the Almeida/Shank albums and that they were great influences. In the 60s the American jazz press universally said that the start of bossa nova was the Black Orpheus soundtrack. It's been years since I've read that, and maybe people don't think so anymore.

Happy Birthday 2012 WD!

The Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe The Mad Adventures of Rabbi Jacob I saw these two together as a double feature in 1972, and I was rolling in the aisles non-stop for three hours.

I hadn't noticed before today, but all of last week's games were East vs. West, and the West won all four of them! Here's the standings: http://stats.sports.theglobeandmail.com/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=globeandmail&page=cfl/stand/standingAJ.htm
