  1. Tom, that hasn't happened to me, but I have had problems with it completely loading. I emailed them, and they were prompt to respond. I think the email address is support@lala.com.
  2. Thanks for sharing that link, Jim!
  3. Anybody know what album that's from? I think I have every one of his albums except one, and I'm not familiar with that song. The one I'm missing is from the mid 90s called something like Ocean Blue, so presumably it's from that, but maybe not.
  4. I bought a Bud Shank cd called This Bud's For You on 32 Jazz. Half its teeth were broken. Remember those black plastic jewel cases that 32 Jazz releases came in? The liner notes page was glued to the inside of the front cover. I've thought about putting the cd in a spare jewel case, but truth be told I've never gotten around to it.
  5. Happy Birthday Eric!
  6. CFL Awards finalists http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/reyn...article1361020/ My picks to win are: Calvillo Chick Cahoon Taylor Flory Mallett But I won't be too surprised if Anwar Stewart beats out John Chick.
  7. What the hell are you people talking about?

  9. I had this one when I was in college. In the US, I'm pretty sure that it was his follow-up to Love Songs. I remember seeing Bernie Living in May of 1970 in DC when he was with Manfred Mann Chapter Three. Great band!
  10. Seeing this reminded me that it had been a long time since I had heard it. So I pulled it out this evening and listened to it. It's different. It's soothing. It doesn't swing. It's not jazz IMHO. For me, it's good to have in the background as I'm getting ready for bed. It's not something to sit by and listen to. For six bucks I would say that it would be worth it to get something unique for your collection. But probably half the people here wouldn't like it. PS - You can hear it and judge for yourself: http://www.lala.com/#album/432627039263996...sen/Cartography
  11. Happy Birthday 2009 S-O-W!
  12. Today is not only Veterans Day, it is also my sister's birthday. For that reason, it is easy for me to remember that it is also Mose Allison's birthday. In his honor, I will later today open up what I believe to be his most recent release, The Mose Chronicles - Volume 2.

    Duane Tatro

    Jazz for Moderns is a favorite of mine. It was an Album of the Week back in '05. http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...10&hl=Tatro
  14. Scary stuff, paps! It sounds like you are already on the road to recovery, but I'll say a prayer for you tonight anyway. Best wishes.
  15. I'm having trouble with slowness this evening, and am getting a blank screen after I push the "add reply" button when I post.
  16. You mean your sister MARRIED someone like you? There are now TWO of you in the family? Just Kidding!
  17. I forgot about Travis Lulay, who had the flu last week. So Zac Champion is their fifth string rookie! It looks like Casey Printers' thumb problem is not as serious as I thought. Here's an article about how the Lions' QB situation looks going into this week's game against the Ticats. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/trio...article1356140/
  18. Lala: Cal Tjader - Soul Bird: Whiffenpoof Art Pepper - The Return of...
  19. Hamilton Tiger-Cats 39....Winnipeg Blue Bombers 17 http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/tica...article1355776/ Great first half. At the break the Ticats led 17-16. But it was all Hamilton in the second half. Michael Bishop threw two interceptions that were run back for touchdowns. This was in effect a playoff game for the Bombers - win and you play next week, lose and the season is ended. So the Ticats will host the Lions next Sunday in the Eastern Semi-Final. Considering that all of the Lions quarterbacks are injured except their fourth string rookie, you've got to like the Ticats' chances. Of course, whoever wins will probably be clobbered by the Als the following week in the Eastern Final.
  20. I've been wanting that Mark Murphy album for decades. I could also go for the Swingle Singers and the Singers Unlimited issues. I'm also curious about the Klaus Doldinger.
  21. Tell us more, TTK. Are these compilations? Who are the artists?
  22. Happy Birthday jeffcrom!
  23. Happy Birthday Conn!
