Boston's looking pretty awesome even without Hayward. Behold the two Jays!s!

Will the Beach Boys be performing "Cease To Exist" at his funeral?

Happy birthday to my Manchester friend and wonderful host!

Pondering getting this box myself, as a Wilson fan who already has all of the Heps, the Musicraft sides, the Verve Mosaic (and the new Mosaic on pre-order), and a scattering of other items. Some helpful input already posted in this thread, but curious if anybody else has picked this up in the past five years and what their response to it might have been. I'm leaning towards getting it, such is my affection for Wilson.

Here's the web page for a Night Lights show about Weston that includes some brief background: The Randy Weston Songbook

His creative partnership with Melba Liston.

Kluber wins the AL Cy Young, with Chris Sale coming in second and Luis Severino in third: AL Cy Young Max Scherzer takes it in the NL, with Clayton Kershaw and Stephen Strasburg in second and third behind him: NL Cy Young

No surprise here, but still nice to see it happen, and by unanimous vote as well: Aaron Judge named AL Rookie of the Year Cody Bellinger won NL Rookie of the Year, also by unanimous vote. Has that ever happened before, both picks coming on unanimous vote? Bellinger broke the NL record for most homers by a rookie; Judge broke the MLB record. A good year for rookies! Cy Young winner will be announced Wednesday night, followed by MVP on Thursday. My money's on Altuve for AL MVP. Any thoughts on potential NL recipients?

Just bought this tonight (the 2-CD version) at Landlocked after leaving work and am listening right now. Fantastic live renditions of the songs from this period; any Dylan fan would enjoy this, I think.

Just picked this one up a few days ago and it's making a bid to become one of my favorites from Tyner's Milestone period, which I find myself going back to more and more often. Will definitely check out The Greeting and Together after reading some comments about them in this thread and the one Big Al started.

Shohei Otani hopes to remain two-way player in MLB

It doesn't sound easy: Lessons of Hurricane Harvey

The UK "Extended Edition" of volume 1 is now available in America: Tune In V. 1 Extended Edition I'm tempted to eventually get this, because I enjoyed the abridged edition so much and because a good friend who posts here from time to time has told me it's worth the deep dive. Still no ETA from Lewisohn for Volume 2, but it'll probably be out by the time I finish reading this! What did you think of Volume 1? I think he did indeed craft a strong narrative... I found myself setting aside time to read it every single day once I started.

Not a book, per se, but I bought these religiously every winter when I was a kid. They're still published, evidently?
