I received Blue Sky a few days ago and have listened to it once. A bit disappointing overall- a few tunes sound like something Pat Metheny wrote in the 80s and 90s not that that's a negative. Don't get me wrong but I expected a more original sound. Cerulean Skies is a lovely tune, however. No final judgment just a once over and it will be on the play list for a while. Anyone else have this?

Ummm? If you're referring to George Clooney, he's a nephew of Rosemary. George is the son of Nick Clooney, a TV journalist/anchorman. (First reading of your note made me think you believed George caused the pregnancy...) my wife pointed out my mistake as well; however we both think this is wonderful music. All involved in top form.

good news. I'll be there

evidently she couldn't travel to the studio due to a difficult pregnancy (was it George?). I'm looking forward to receiving this music based on the above comments.

I just picked up the cd really for my wife who loves Rosemary Clooney but any Duke is ok with me.

I saw him recently at the Ellington jazz festival when he was wheeled onstage to accept an award and he was barely there but still managed to play a few notes with Hank Jones who was decidedly all there.

time for some Rat Pack!

I have an excellent copy of 11-11-73 but downloaded the new version as this is a must have show. I need to listen to the whole thing to see if it's an improvement.

My MFSL of Exodus sounds good to me. Hasn't Bablyon by Bus been remastered? What's the opinion on that one?

thanks for the story. Also, 4-9-83 on etree is worth the download.

I donated via paypal and encourage everyone who hasn't to do so TODAY!

That's on my list as well. Please let us know your opinion. Buy it. It's fantastic. As is the Coltrane. thanks. it's on the wish list Got it when I was in NYC last weekend. It is indeed fabulous and Pat Metheny's liner notes are great as well.

excellent!

Sound has been upgraded and the 4 bonus tracks are nice as well. I listened to this last night and then watched the Jazz Icons Wes Montgomery DVD. A very enjoyable combo.

That's on my list as well. Please let us know your opinion. Buy it. It's fantastic. As is the Coltrane. thanks. it's on the wish list

as i posted at WV too bad it's not complete. i think i downloaded the complete show from longliverock.org (sanctioned by Townshend-I checked so no guilt)

yes, I meant the NTFS format. Certainly would like that command though reformatting not a biggie-set it up at night and it's finished in the morning.

That's on my list as well. Please let us know your opinion.

I've been very happy with the 3 IOmega external HDs I've bought from buy dot com. Basically plug and play but I also reformatted them to NTSC.

I think I will head to U-topia on U street in DC to see B3er Bill Heid. I'll be at the bar if any boardmembers are there.

None of those releases totally showcase the boys at their best but if I had to pick, it would probably be the Winterland closing. SQ is the best of the three, IMO.

mp3 only

I've been listening to a couple of his cds lately-Jumpin' and Walkin' Uptown. Really enjoyable. Anyone else into this guy?

Birks Works is fabulous with excellent mono sound. One of my favorite big band recordings.

I just ordered tiks for the main event on September 15th at the Lincoln Theater but hope to make some of the other shows. www.dejazzfest.org is the website.
