A pair of Gene Ammons recordings - Big Sound & Groove Blues

My first Blue Mitchell album was Blue Soul. Featuring Jimmy Heath, Curtis Fuller, Wynton Kelly, Sam Jones and Philly Joe Jones.

First Frank Rosolino purchase: Features Harold Land and the very familiar names Victor Feldman, Leroy Vinnegar and Stan Levey.

This has always been a favorite of mine released on Rhino Records. A few favorites: Big Long Slidin' Thing by Dinah Washington, The Walkin' Blues(Walk Right In, Walk Right Out) by The Jesse Powell Orchestra with Fluffy Hunter and Sixty Minute Man by The Dominoes.

I suggest reading the manual. They usually provide solutions to the most frequent problems. That's where the trouble STARTS (for me, anyway). There is no manual. Only online instructions. Couldn't get around to making another attempt today. Just too much going on. Hope to give things another shot in a day or so and yes try Shawn's suggestions. Thanks guys for your help. I really appreciate it.

Having to get someone here who has experience with these issues is a real possibility. When I popped in the cd and it described how you connect the cables it WAS very simple. Figured at the time it might be fairly easy. After I had things hooked up, I kept getting an error message instructing to click on the link for the Cisco website for further information. I kept going back over and over thinking perhaps I had made the wrong connections, maybe I had plugged into a wrong port but no possibility of that. Very frustrating to say the least.

I purchased a wireless router today(Linksys E1000) after recently receiving as a anniversary present from my wife a HP laptop. Now besides the Dell desktop which I have upstairs, I can roam all over the house with the laptop which is pretty cool. Now here lies the problem. I've made numerous, many attempts today trying to establish a connection but have failed each time. People telling me, oh yeah it's real easy to do. Bullshit. The directions are fairly straightforward, yes. It's just not working for me. Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong? I'm running off Windows Vista and a cable modem. The computer is a Dell desktop. Any help would sure be appreciated. I should also add, I did contact Cisco via there chat page but that wasn't much of a help.

My first Donald Bryd purchase, the excellent Bryd In Flight. Featuring: Jackie McLean Hank Mobley Duke Pearson Doug Watkins Reggie Workman Lex Humphries

First Clifford Jordan album - Mosaic Players: Kenny Dorham Sonny Red Tommy Flanagan Cedar Walton Wilbur Ware Albert "Tootie" Heath Elvin Jones

My first Thelonious Monk album was Brilliant Corners. Hope I did that right?

Just received this in the mail today. All I can say is friggin awesome stuff!!! Just ordered Alive!

What he said!

Happy Birthday, Bruce!

Happy Birthday, Paps! Enjoy that trip.

I've read good things about Grant Green's Live At The Lighthouse here on the forum. I ordered a used copy last week. Much more funky than what you may be accustomed from hearing from Grant, if that makes a difference.

Got into the low 90's here today. Glad that new air conditioner arrived when it did.

It appears although I could be wrong, that Grant Green's "Live At The Lighthouse" has been deleted. After recently hearing this on lala.com, I was curious about it's availability. On Amazon's website, it appears only through Amazon Marketplace available new from 4 overseas sellers. 1 from Switzerland, 3 from the UK. I purchased a used copy for just under $6 plus shipping from a seller in California. If you've been interested in this release, you might wish to move quickly.

Some nice purchases, especially the Blue Mitchell disc.

The listing on Amazon must be messed up. The listing indicates it's a single disc with only 4 songs listed. Can't say I know what this would be, so I assume I'm getting what I think I am. We'll see! My order shipped this morning. $10.39, includes tax.

Harold In The Land Of Jazz is a great one! Somebody should pick this one up.

Just my friggin luck. The 2'nd night in a row I had trouble sleeping and I didn't go online missing out on Paps great deals. Can't win them all

Donald Byrd's Fuego is a pretty good one. Just ordered that along with Thad Jones/Mel Lewis Live at The Village Vanguard and Introducing Kenny Burrell. More to follow.

"Montmartre" from the Dexter Gordon album "Tower of Power" with fine assistance from James Moody and Barry Harris.

With the demise of lala, I'm now onto Grooveshark as recommended by GA Russell:

With the hours winding down for lala:
