Also a good review in today's Washington Post but let's be honest, his drug use exacerbated his other health issues. He was so terribly thin the one time I saw him that it was no surprise to read of his arrest. Sadly, another drug casualty.
We saw Kenny Barron in bucolic Mt. Gretna PA on the 20th. He was in excellent form despite some sound issues. He was accompanied by a Japanese bassist and Jonathan Blake on percussion. Frankly, I would have rather seen a solo performance given how well he was playing. Nice to see live jazz again.
$325 for the Carver (pdf manual available), $275 for the SVS 16-46pci and $200 for the Paradigm Monitor 11 v2. All of these are OBO. Local pickup/meetup in Washington DC metro area. Shipping might be work but would not be cheap. Direct email with any ? is jhw59 at hotmail.com
I love Dexter but that man had some issues. I remember seeing him at a club and between breaks (not set but instrument) he would leave the bandstand, go to the bar and chug a couple of beers then return for his break without missing a beat. This was early 80s I think.
Nice guy. I literally sat right next to him which was an amazing percussion experience. We chatted between sets. He's from DC so a lot of his homies were in the audience. Don't overlook his work with the Cookers.
That is true. This link might prove helpful http://watershade.net/wmcclain/UDP-203-faq.html
Also the AV forum has a user group that is worth searching through though it is quite lengthy at this point. https://www.avsforum.com/threads/official-oppo-udp-203-owners-thread.2676801/
Very, very sad and I hear Blues Alley is in dire financial condition as well. I also was present for the Organissimo show. A great John Hicks performance also comes to mind. Is JoJos still having shows?
