  1. Bill Evans - The Complete Fantasy Recordings, Disc 1 Contains music from the album "The Tokyo Concert".
  2. Spotify; A half dozen tracks were available via Spotify. Enough to convince to me buy this album.
  3. On most occaions although I would be concerned, I probably wouldn't be too stressed about an oncoming storm. Except this time around besides looking after my own home, I'm also taking care of my mom's home. Her house is on the market and I really don't need any complications like a tree falling on the roof or the basement flooding. I refuse to watch the weather channel or any of the network broadcasts at this point. It's really upsetting me big time. I don't think I'll be getting much sleep the next 48 hours.
  4. I'm concerned about down trees and power outages. You can only hope things turn out not as bad as the forecasters are calling for. That said, I'm getting prepared.
  5. Happy Birthday, Clive. Hope it was a good one?
  6. Just bought this from Newbury Comics for only 69.99!
  7. I had the good fortune last night to see Brian Lynch perform in a quartet at "The Falcon" a very cool club located in Marlboro, NY about 65 miles north of NY City. This is a fantastic place to see a show. The acoustics are great, the shows are well attended, a real positive vibe definitely goes down here. Besides Lynch, Herve Sellin was featured on piano, David Wong on bass and Bill Goodwin on drums. The theme of the evening was jazz influenced by French classical music. When I first heard of the theme of the evenings show, I was abit skeptical. I wasn't sure whether I would enjoy enjoy the show. I was proven wrong. It worked. Sellin who is the main influence here seems to be quite adept in his knowledge of French classical music. Sellin and Lynch collaborated to bring both genres together for a very interesting mix of highly entertaining music. Sellin also played with Johnny Griffin for a number of years, so there is no disputing his jazz creds here. Bill Goodwin was crackling on drums. I have to admit not knowing much about him, but he was exciting to watch behind the drum kit. Again, another fine show put on by Tony Falco and the folks at "The Falcon". If any of you guys are in the area, you defintely should check this place out. Greg Osby plays here next Saturday night and Terrell Stafford next month. There is no admission to get inside, although there is a donation box where folks can deposit what they feel is appropriate. I don't know how Tony does it, but he keeps booking acts. Dinner and drinks are served as well.
  8. Good for you, Allen. Maybe Maine isn't all bad?
  9. Just putting this one out here for any interested parties. Show is tonight approx. 9:30 PM to midnight. Smalls Live Video Stream
  10. Happy Birthday, Lon!
  11. While I don't have it too often, I do enjoy Ben & Jerry's "Cherry Garcia".
  12. Spotify: Walt Weiskopf - Sleepless Nights
  13. Add to me to the list recommending "Unsung Heroes". I now own it. Hang in there, Dan!
  14. Having little to go on with exception of the Brian Lynch album "Unsung Heroes" which Herring plays on, I figured it might be worth finding out what others felt. Thanks for your thoughts guys both pro and con.
  15. I figured I would bump this topic one time. While I had a good number of views, no responses received to date. Reading his bio his playing is highly influenced by his idol Cannonball Adderely. That can't be a bad thing? The samples sure sounded good from the album I posted on above.
  16. He plays on the Brian Lynch album "Unsung Heroes" as a "special invited guest". Like what I'm hearing. Any specific albums I should be looking for? This one has garnered some positive reviews: Simple Pleasure
  17. Absolutely brutal this morning. It had to be 90 F before 10 this morning. The high today was 102 with the heat index of 110. One more day of this shit.
  18. A difficult night of sleeping even with the air conditioning on. At present almost 1 AM and it's 85 degrees.
  19. Close to 100 degrees here today with the heat index nearly 110F. As I sit here right now nearing 9PM eastern, it's 91!
