Joe Medjuck, TTK and sgcim might like this. The writing is pretty dry, but the author provides a long list of films that look interesting.

I stopped using PayPal because they demanded that I give them my telephone number.

I saw Herbie's band at The Cellar Door very soon after this was released. (Early 1970?) They all pulled out their sheet music to play Waltz for My Son.

Attn: Jim Sangrey! Some time ago, you asked about the price of food at CFL games. Since no one has spoken up, I can tell you this. Saturday was the Argos' last home game (except the Eastern Final), and they had a special: $7 beers and $3 hot dogs. The 73-cent dollar converts to $5.11 beers and $2.19 hot dogs American.

The Jimi Hendrix Experience Hollywood Bowl Format(s): Classic Hits, Jazz, Non-Commercial, NPR, Triple A # Artist and Track Title Time 1. The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Killing Floor (Live) (Radio Edit) 03:44 2. The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Live) (Radio Edit) 01:41 JIMI HENDRIX EXPERIENCE: HOLLYWOOD BOWL AUGUST 18, 1967 ALBUM COMING NOVEMBER 10 ON EXPERIENCE HENDRIX/LEGACY RECORDINGS HISTORIC LIVE SET MARKS THE MOMENT BEFORE HENDRIX ACHIEVED INT’L FAME; RECORDING HAS NEVER BEEN OFFICIALLY RELEASED OR BOOTLEGGED “KILLING FLOOR” AND “SGT. PEPPER’S LONELY HEARTS CLUB BAND” On November 10, Experience Hendrix, L.L.C. in partnership with Legacy Recordings will be releasing Jimi Hendrix Experience: Hollywood Bowl August 18, 1967 on vinyl, CD and all digital platforms. This live concert performance, captured just five days before the US release of Are You Experienced, their album debut, is notable for being one of the last times the band performed in front of an audience as relative unknowns. Finally, the set can be enjoyed by the rest of the world for the first time ever; amazingly, not a single second of this unique, two-track live recording has ever been released before in any capacity, either via official channels or elsewise. In advance of the November 10 release of Jimi Hendrix Experience: Hollywood Bowl August 18, 1967, the band’s versions of Howlin’ Wolf’s “Killing Floor” and The Beatles “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” has been made available for download and airplay. During their set, The Jimi Hendrix Experience (Jimi Hendrix, Mitch Mitchell, Noel Redding) blazed through originals such as “Purple Haze,” “The Wind Cries Mary,” and yet-to-be-released classics “Foxey Lady” and “Fire,” as well as their own re-imagining of favorites Bob Dylan (“Like a Rolling Stone”), The Troggs (“Wild Thing”) and Muddy Waters (“Catfish Blues”). Having already conquered the band’s UK base as well as Continental Europe over the previous ten months, the vast majority of the 17,000 plus Los Angeles concert goers were there to see headliners The Mamas & The Papas and were caught off guard by Jimi Hendrix’s electrifying musicality and showmanship. Michelle Phillips, the only surviving member of The Mamas & The Papas, first saw the Experience perform at the Monterey Pop Festival. “We had never heard of him,” she remembers. “I had absolutely no idea what to expect. And when I saw him perform, I was mortified. I had never seen anything like this, I'd never seen anybody treat their instruments like this. He was pouring lighter fluid over his guitar and then setting it on fire and – I really was shocked. I had no experience with this kind of rock and roll theatre. And that was the first time I had ever seen it.” Backstage at the Hollywood Bowl weeks later, Phillips was won over by Jimi Hendrix. “I absolutely loved him,” recalls Phillips in the liner notes for Hollywood Bowl August 18, 1967, penned by Jeff Slate. “He was a gentleman, he was lovely, he was funny.” She softened her view of “rock and roll theatre,” which was somewhat antithetical to the more stayed and pitch-perfect folk tradition from which her group emerged. This very concert wound up being The Mamas & The Papas’ last, while the Experience’s star was rising; they would return to the Bowl the following year as headliners. Phillips remembers, “In a couple of days or months, Jimi Hendrix was the hottest thing happening.” Jimi Hendrix Experience: Hollywood Bowl August 18, 1967 Introduction Sgt.

Computer Gurus: CD burning app
GA Russell replied to GA Russell's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
This all sounds great! I'll do my research on what you suggest. The burner is not due to arrive until Oct. 20, so I have a week to look into it. -
Computer Gurus: CD burning app
GA Russell replied to GA Russell's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Thanks, guys! I knew you would come through with good suggestions. -
I ordered a CD burner yesterday. My understanding is that there are various computer programs relevant to burning CDs, and that some of these programs are better than others. Is that right? Does anyone here have a favorite program he can recommend? Thanks!

That was my introduction to Ponty in '68. A friend had brought it back to the US from France.

What should Rhymes have done? The announcer says that he should have knelt down and halted the play. I think that that is too cute with only two seconds left. You are hoping that the ref will make the right call. When Rhymes was at the fifteen yard line, the clock had expired. He should have kicked the ball through the back of the goal area, and scored a single point. That would have won the game. ***** Power Rankings https://3downnation.com/2023/10/10/3downnation-power-rankings-bombers-move-up-week-18/ https://www.cfl.ca/2023/10/10/power-rankings-all-roads-still-go-through-toronto/ https://cflnewshub.com/cfl-news/cfl-2023-week-19-power-rankings-bombers-seize-the-moment-bc-heartbreak-montreal-hamilton-continue-late-season-surge-argos-celebrate-150-in-style/ ***** Playoff Scenarios https://www.cfl.ca/2023/10/10/playoff-scenarios-montreal-eyes-hosting-riders-look-to-secure-spot/

From Nov. 8, 2018 Artist Title Time Antonio Adolfo Partido Samba-Funk 05:21 Antonio Adolfo Pentatonica 04:29 Antonio Adolfo Atlantica 04:33 Antonio Adolfo Luizao 04:20 Antonio Adolfo Milestones 04:28 Antonio Adolfo Saudade 06:41 Antonio Adolfo Capoeira Ya 04:50 Antonio Adolfo Africa Bahia Brasil 06:11 Antonio Adolfo Delicada Jazz Waltz 05:03 Antonio Adolfo Sa Marina 06:59 Antonio Adolfo "Encontros-Orquestra Atlantica" JazzWeek Pianist, Composer, Producer and Grammy Nominee ANTONIO ADOLFO continues to dominate the JazzWeek chart after 16 weeks and peaking at #2 with “Encontros - Orquestra Atlantica! If you missed this outstanding releases the first time around, here’s your chance to check it out NOW! Whether one loves Brazilian music, big bands or modern jazz, Encontros – Orquestra Atlantica makes for a memorable and stimulating listening experience Throughout the past 40 years, Antonio Adolfo has had a very busy career as a pianist, composer, and arranger. Born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, his teachers included Eumir Deodato and Nadia Boulanger (in Paris). A jazz pianist since the mid-1960s in Brazil, Adolfo worked with such major singers as Leny Andrade, Flora Purim, Elis Regina, and Milton Nascimento and has recorded more than 25 albums as a leader. A major name for decades, his music combines together Brazilian rhythmic styles with jazz. His previous recording, Antonio Adolfo “HYBRIDO - From Rio to Wayne Shorter,” was a 2018 Grammy finalist. As a bandleader, Antonio Adolfo has mostly been featured with small groups that showcase his music and his solo abilities. However, he has long considered it a major goal to someday record an album with a larger ensemble, a big band that had a full understanding of both Brazilian music and jazz. Encontros - Orquestra Atlantica is the realization of that dream. After having seen a performance in Rio de Janeiro by Orquestra Atlantica, a Brazilian jazz orchestra founded in 2012, Antonio Adolfo was so impressed that he invited the group to be a major part of his new recording. With up to seven horns and several guests, Adolfo had many new tone colors at his disposal along with the powerful sound of a big band. The result is an exciting set comprised of nine of Adolfo’s compositions plus Miles Davis’ “Milestones.” The inventive arrangements of Jesse Sadoc and Marcelo Martins mix together the sound of big band jazz with such Brazilian styles as the Samba, Bossa Nova, Baiao, Frevo, and the Afoxe to create memorable and infectious music. It is very rare for Brazilian jazz to be performed by a big band, particularly one of this quality. Hearing Antonio Adolfo’s music played by a top-notch orchestra casts new light on his writing abilities. www.aammusic.com www.antonioadolfomusic.com

Adjacent LP Tracks That Form Inseparable Pairs

A regular customer sits down at the diner and orders his breakfast. “I’d like two eggs, over easy until the yoke is hard and the white is crispy; white bread toasted until it’s burnt on both sides, runny oatmeal and coffee served weak, with too much cream.” “Wow. That’s a really strange order, sir.” “Really? That’s how I’ve been getting it for two years, without ever asking for it.”
