  1. A nice recording and well produced by John Lee. I doubt this band had many gigs before this recording as it is a bit rough around the edges but plenty of fine music from JH's wonderful compositons and equally wonderful arrangements. The tempos on many of these pieces were faster than the previous recordings and I did miss a guitar on some. Overall an excellent effort and worth picking up. These words after one listening so don't hold me to my comments 100%..
  2. in the mail today. Looking forward to another release by the jazz master. CD is entitled Togetherness.
  3. saw him play around DC several times over the years. Always enjoyable listening!
  4. pm with ? on Ellington
  5. A favorite artist of mine for many years! Happy Birthday!
  6. Count Basie live I think over 20 years ago.
  7. Always worth calling AA and seeing what that have as open box, demo, etc. I've gotten some deals this way. That said, I started with a Yamaha and moved up to a Pioneer Elite AV receiver both of which have served me well. Spend some time on the AV forums to get a sense of what's out there. I have never used the tuner section of either.
  8. monoprice for cheap but good wire. Blue Jean mid range. Next level might be Analysis Plus
  9. Sorry, the MD sandwich is not lake trout but CRAB! Or rather, a crabcake sandwich.
  10. and I enjoyed that B3 so well worth the effort!
  11. Not sure I'll keep it but I have fond memories of my show at the fabulous Fox earlier that year.
  12. Oh well, next time and maybe some DC dates. Twins, Bohemian Caverns, Blues Alley??
  13. I have Ballads, searching for peace. MP has a nice tone on this recording.
  14. Well that potentially sucks. This shutdown has to end!
  15. I knew this was coming but sorry to read this. RIP.
  16. I put on Brazilian Days yesterday with Paul Winter. What a wonderful and melodic album this is.
  17. sorry to read this, one of my favorites. RIP
  18. cool! On the calendar. Any other dates scheduled in the area?
  19. Al Kooper's book is a great rock and roll read.
  20. pm with ? on Out to Lunch and Lenox Ave Breakdown
  21. I was at the Jersey City concert. I remember being so surprised to see a clean-shaven Jerry, and I remember Seastones playing over the Wall of Sound during intermission. That was the last time I saw the Dead. 8-6-74 is truly a great show. I'm glad I have a excellent sounding copy of it.

    He's at Blues Alley in DC next month for a 70th birthday engagement. I will have to see if I can swing this.
