  2. Well, I figured tonight would be the night I pick up those sides. I convinced the wife that this was a deal that had to be done (I also stressed that she wouldn't be expected to lift any record crates when we eventually relocate; it'll be my back going out, not her's). So I call tmy friend to arrange to come over, and I am told that we have to wait till next week! Arghh, the suspense is killing me! It seems that he has a commission to orchestrate some music for a client, and after that he returns to unemployment. Tell me how I could not be empathetic to a story like that?

  7. Damn. That was unexpected. Sad.
  8. Several months ago I posted a thread about a record collection that a friend of mine was wanting to sell. My name came up between him and a mutual friend, because he knew that in the past I have bought a couple small LP collections. As tempted as I was to pursue this opportunity, I never did follow up because of money reasons. If I went over and looked at the records, I know I would probably be tempted! And besides, the wife says no more vinyl expenses. Grrrr. At any rate, this guy called me yesterday telling me how he really just wants to get rid of the records, and not for money reasons. He told me that I could take any and all of the records and if I sold them, we could split the money 50/50. More than fair I'd say. He also said that if I just wanted to keep any of them, that would be okay too. (at this point I was pinching myself to see if I was dreaming). He has around 500 LPs only, and most are jazz. He says he has many old Blue Notes, etc, and he has always has been very careful with them, and that they are all in plastic sleeves. I will let everyone know what I have here sometime next week or so. I am supposed to drive over to his house and check it out. please Lord, let there be deep groove BNs!!

  10. i feel a little tempted to set up a "why didn't you watch the Ken Burns documentary?" poll I actually did try to, but it seemed like every few minutes or so, Wynton kept popping up with his pontificating blather.
  11. I never knew that any film existed of clifford. This is nice, despite the poor quality of the tape, and the cornball Soupy Sales banter. http://www.dailymotion.com/Itsme/video/x1sbg_clifford-brown
