Strongly Agree!!!

In situations such as this I'm liable to convince myself not to buy, hold out for months, and then succumb on impulse. But this set is so over the top that Paddy Power PLC is already paying-off all bettors who wagered that I would hang tough.

This set is, of course, a blatant exploitation of music obsessives like us (me). It is also a test of our mental health. DO NOT BUY THIS SET!!!!! Resist that little voice in your head.

Would you mind posting a copy of the tax return? I'd love to see it but the cost of the box set just might be the the straw the breaks the back of my marriage. Please exclude the pics of Miles, unless he's in the act with Cecilie Tyson. On 2nd thought the wife probably wouldn't approve of the pics either. Ah well.

Surely we can all agree that Freddie Hubbard's "The Night of the Cookers" (both volumes) stinks.

Mr. Beautiful!

Don't see Francis Davis's reviews in Village Voice anymore. Who is he writing for now? Thanks.

Ok. I just ordered this on your recommendation. You better have good taste!

I like my Paradigm Studio 20s. Also have been enjoying my B&W CDM 1s since I had B&W replace the tweets.

I'm not a musician, strictly a fan. But I am lefted handed. From what I understand, in jazz piano the left hand is used largely for rhythm, comping, and the right hand for solo, lead. So are jazz pianists disporportionately right handed? Are there any accomplished left handed jazz pianists? How does left handedness effect other instruments? Thanks.

Charles Tolliver Select

No.

I'm interested. My email is peter@zwiefelhofer.com. What do you think it is worth?

I'm looking for recommended recordings with tenor sax player Jim Pepper. As a leader or sideman. Would like to check out your favorites. Thanks.

Ended up buying a Rotel 1055. Gave up on finding a changer with SACD & HDCD.

I've used this 40% coupon 3 times so far and will use it again today. Most RVGs are priced at $11.99. With coupon $7.19. A deal!

I think I'm going to buy the Marantz cc 4001.

Anybody check out Gene Harris's Live in London? He gets pretty abstract on Blues Closer.

Yup. 20 bit I believe.

F*ck!!!! Missed 'em.

Am considerring updating my very old copies of "'Round About Midnight", "Milestones", "Kind of Blue". Seems to be at least two remasters currently in print, 20 bit & 24 bit. 24 bit seems to be the older of the two. Recommendations please?

If you're going for obscure, you're there. Never heard of him. Neither has wikipedia or all music guide.

What Allen said. Could play anything on the guitar, but didn't know what to play.

Anybody pick-up Zappa Plays Zappa? 5 disc mix of CD & DVD released today on Razor & Tie.
