  2. Brandon Browner has made the Seattle Seahawks. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375115 It looks like Cincinnati has offered a practice roster spot to Matt O'Donnell. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375088 Cincinnati has also offered a practice roster spot to Andrew Hawkins. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375080 John Chick declined the Indianapolis Colts' offer of a practice roster spot, and instead decided to join the Jacksonville Jaguars practice roster. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375176 ***** Both underdogs (I assume) won blowouts in today's Labor Day games. Hamilton Tiger-Cats 44....Montreal Alouettes 21 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375207 http://64.246.64.33/...aspx?id=4434396 Sean Whyte missed a field goal after making 24 straight. I'm not sure, but I think that the league record is 25. ***** Edmonton Eskimos 35....Calgary Stampeders 7 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375223 http://64.246.64.33/...aspx?id=4434440 Calgary's offense had only one real drive the entire game.
  3. This is due out tomorrow in the US. Here is the email I received about it. Ricardo Villalobos/Max Loderbauer - Re: ECM Berlin-based DJs and composers Ricardo Villalobos and Max Loderbauer - two of the best-known names in contemporary electronica - share their admiration for music on ECM in a unique double-album of specially-created “sound-structures”. Their project “Re: ECM” will bring the label’s music to a new listenership. It is certain to be one of the most talked-about albums of the season. Using original ECM recordings as a starting point, Villalobos and Loderbauer create new music that bridges several worlds, including ECM’s world of space-conscious improvisation and composition and the worlds of ambient electronics and minimal techno. Source materials on “Re: ECM” include recordings of Christian Wallumrød, Alexander Knaifel, Louis Sclavis, John Abercrombie, Bennie Maupin, Arvo Pärt, Wolfert Brederode, Paul Giger and more - looped, sampled, remixed and reworked in evocative new treatments. Pleased with the duo’s creative response to his productions Manfred Eicher gave them carte blanche to carry on experimenting with the ECM titles of their choice. Eicher subsequently supervised the mastering of “Re: ECM” in Munich, completing a unique sonic experience.

  4. Happy Birthday sidewinder! To celebrate, I suggest the Four Freshmen Mosaic!
  5. Saskatchewan Roughriders 27....Winnipeg Blue Bombers 7 http://64.246.64.33/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4434067 http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375167 Surprise! I was unable to listen to the game, so I can't tell you anything you can't read for yourself. With Ken Miller now coaching the Riders, it looks like we can expect the Argos to be the worst team in the league unless Steven Jyles comes off the injured list to have his best year ever.
  6. Don't rub it in!
  7. Otis Floyd announced his retirement today. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375145
  8. Correct, Jack! I'm a little surprised that you got that one, as her mouth looks different to me.
  9. Yes, I remembered that DS al Coda release after I went to bed! ESPN used a track from that as their theme music to their boxing matches in the late 80s. I'm jealous that you got to see Henry Cow and National Health! I lived in Pittsburgh in the 70s, and it was easier to find the import records of the Canterbury groups in the record shops than it was to find jazz.
  10. Thanks Bev! I had all (Was it only two?) of National Health's albums back in the day, and I got another from Cuneiform about ten years ago. Fond memories!
  11. This one isn't obvious.
  12. I notice that the OP link now says that the concert is sold out! Doug Ramsey had a note about this the other day - specifically that the fact that it will be at the Blue Note is a sign of the times. We're a month ahead of Doug Ramsey!
  13. What is the show listed above you are referring to? Do you have a link?

  15. spotify: Gerry Mulligan - The Original Quartet with Chet Baker
  16. Today was NFL cutdown day. Matt O'Donnell was cut by the Bengals. Hopefully he'll sign with the Riders now. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375088 The Vikings put Emmanuel Arcineaux on their practice roster. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375067 Tom Johnson made the Saints. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375073 The Colts want to put John Chick on their practice roster, but he hasn't accepted yet, and may shop himself around. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375074 Phillip Hunt made the Eagles. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375100 Andy Fantuz is planning to rejoin the Riders immediately. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375009
  17. spotify: Dave Pike - The Doors of Perception
  18. British Columbia Lions 29....Toronto Argonauts 16 http://64.246.64.33/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4433447 The Lions have looked pretty good the past two weeks playing against rotten teams. Steven Jyles comes off the injured list this week. He has got to be an improvement for the Argos at QB or they can write the season off. Some records were set. Chad Owens set the Argos record for kickoff return yards. The teams combined to set league records for number of kickoffs and kickoff return yardage.
  19. Happy Birthday Stompy Jones!
  20. Happy Birthday umum_cypher!
  21. Happy Birthday romualdo!
  22. Umar Ali Week 10 preview http://64.246.64.33/merge/tsnform.aspx?c=sportsnetwork&page=cfl/news/news.aspx?id=4433168 ***** The Chicago Tribune is reporting that the Bears have cut Andy Fantuz. http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/story/?id=375009
  23. Correct, marcello! It's Dave Pike! I can't say that I've heard a lot of him over the years, but I've liked everything I've heard.
  24. I see that Amazon is now carrying the CD box of Blues for the Fisherman. http://www.amazon.com/Vol-6-Blues-Fisherman-Unreleased-Art/dp/B005BY8XA4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1314944975&sr=8-1
