  1. Herbie Hancock Trio '77
  2. He hates the Posral Service plain and simple. That's not a political statement but fact.
  3. As a former employee I just don't get this stuff. Of course I posted my similar experience. From what I've read online overall first class and bulk(junk) mail volume is way down because of the virus. There are days when there is nothing in my mailbox. As for parcel volume I'm hearing it's comparable to the Christmas holidays because with many stores closed and people home, there is a lot or ordering online. Amazon can't even guarantee 2 day delivery for Prime members. Chewy where we order our pet food, is taking forever to ship. We placed an order over 10 days ago and still hasn't shipped. Perhaps the rank and file at the USPS is overwhelmed. Not that's an excuse. Just weird stuff that escapes me.
  4. Just an update FWIW. The package arrived on Monday. Weird it took the travels it did. I feel kind of petty for mentioning it now since they're more obviously important things going on these days. Moving on.
  5. Well the latest it is now in Oxford, Mississippi.
  6. I guess sooner or later it had to happen to me. I have a shipment mailed from New York to here in Maine with scheduled delivery for today by 8pm and currently it's sitting in Memphis, Tenn.. So does that mean I'm not getting my package today? Smh
  7. While I never knew Clint, I do remember his posts on various jazz forums. It was only a few months ago he friended me on Facebook when I began posting various jazz videos and audio segments. We interacted alittle. Sorry to hear of his passing.
  8. It would be more of a drive for you Kevin, but we got very good Chinese from a place in Sanford called the Green Tea. It's located on Main Street. Agreed on your thoughts about closer venues. "East" here in town is horrible.
  9. I don't own the Galaxy set so I enjoyed this collection.
  10. I'm glad to see many of you guys remember Cyrille. When I read the news last night my reaction to it was like a punch to the gut. It made me very sad. We always had very pleasant conversations from time to time. A few months back she congratulated me via text on my retirement from the postal service. It meant alot to me. She died too damn young and I will miss our communications.
  11. According to a friend he emphasized it was NOT Corona or COVID-19. Pneumonia. Most likely. I posted a tribute to her on my Facebook homepage.
  12. Hans, search Cyrille Stephan on Facebook and that should link you to her homepage. A friend of hers makes mention of her passing.
  13. I don't know how many of you remember Cyril. She used to post from the Netherlands and.was an active member on the forum till October 2018. She had over 10000 posts at the time. I just happened to run across a post on facebook last night that she had passed last friday. She was only 40 or so apparently. A serious jazz devotee. One of her favorites was Eric Dolphy among many others. She really knew her stuff and was not a casual enthusiast. We've kept touch over the years and the last few years on Facebook. She was a good spirit who truely loved jazz . I will miss our communications. Just thought folks here might want to know.
