The line at the end of that story was more interesting to me: "Concord said last week it would buy the roots label Rounder Records, home to bluegrass musician Alison Krauss." Concord is buying up a lot of labels...

From Jonathan Horwich, after a communication from Werner at Hat. "I was able to salvage the Carter/Bradford Seeking tapes I had copies of and Mosaic Records here is going to put out a 3 CD set of Carter/Bradford of all of their work for Revelation including the 6 cuts from Seeking plus bonus tracks I found, plus Secrets, plus a recording I did of them in LA in 1979 ." "The set is coming out for sure. We've just finished the mastering of the 3 CDs from the original masters. This is all of the Revelation material of Carter and Bradford. One of the CDs has never been heard as I recorded it in LA in 1979. Duet stuff done in Westlake Studios. Wonderful music and rapport. The whole set is killer music. Some of it is just mind blowing when Carter gets going on tenor of all things." "Basically three CD select set of all of the Revelation material. First disc = vinyl Seeking plus three bonus tracks. I am not sure if the bonus material isn't as good as the main vinyl tracks. Anyway Disc 2 is vinyl Secrets plus bonus tracks. Disc 3 is the Westlake session I did." That's John Carter & Bobby Bradford. Thus ruining the joke further down...

Wow, I don't know how you can even fit in the Echo Curio, but I look forward to it...

up, to add to the other thread...

Retro Chic is good. Saw them once during their first album tour, and that was an entertaining show, but they've gotten muhc bigger in LA since then and I haven't seen them since. They play Disney Hall and the Hollywood Bowl now. Hey Eugene is a mediocre album in my limited listening experience; their first album is more entertaining, and one can gather from the tracks their interest. Of course, they have also changed some since then...

It has been now... Shoulda charged more. :-) All shipped; list updated.

This is not true - I survived the strong 1989 earthquake in northern California (7.1) and the overwhelming majority of structures survived. That said, in most poor countries even earthquakes much weaker than 7.0 will be catastrophic - and Haiti is among the poorest of the poor. Guy Yes, but you were in California, where buildings do survive quakes and are built to more extreme measures than any other place on earth (except Japan, I think). But in most of the world, as Van Basten said, a 7.0 would level a large percentage of buildings. Countries that are on faults, volcanoes, etc shoudl be building to the specs of California or Japan. But most don't due to costs, corruption. No offense, but it appears you really don't understand the two posts you quoted. The first statement was erroneous, and Guy was making the same point you're making. Anyway, carry on. I understood the first, but yes, I did miss some of Guy's. Sorry.

They don't deserve this. I hope aid gets there quickly.

Not to highjack this thread commemorating Mr. Rohmer, but Jean-Luc Godard is still with us. Those French filmmakers live long. Jacques Rivette, Godard, Chris Marker, Alain Resnais - all alive and working and past 75 years of age. Rohmer lived a full life and left us with an amazing series of films. R.I.P.

I'd be open to some; just don't have the money at the moment - timing.... But welcome to the board! Adam

Mid-70s, bright and sunny here in Los Angeles. Year-end weather, right on schedule!

I was going to post this in the You Tube thread, but couldn't find that thread and instead found this one.

Here's a link to a longer ten-minute version on You Tube, just sent to me by another friend. One of the more astonishing medleys I've ever heard or seen. There are edits evident in this version as well. http://www.youtube.c...h?v=RwhDe56O9f8 There are just too many things worthy of comment. At 8:50 when "Fables of Faubus" kicks in, are those Japanese translated Mingus lyrics, or entirely new lyrics? What's with the flower-egg? Etc.

I'm having the same issue, using the newest Firefox, can't find a Preference to change it. But links are opening in the same window (Tab) rather than opening a new Tab. I just looked through organissimo preferences and Firefox preferences, but haven't found the correct place yet. Anyone know how to change that setting?

In your opinion, maybe; I strongly disagree Well, other than mine, in whose opinion would that be? I assume you're a big Santana fan; it just didn't have the same magic for me. The Springfield was not bad. Liked some things I heard. I always get an uneasy feeling when people are expressing opinions as facts, which I thought was the case here. His use of "seems" makes it clear that it, as are all statements about music, are opinions, and so to point that out is a needless redundancy. In my opinion.

Sure, no problem. It seems to me that Mark did politely ask you to edit it. Were you the one who deleted it, or someone else?

Syliphone has had some reach CD - a nice 2 disc mix, and 2 disc sets of Balle et les Balladins and, uh, I'm blanking for the moment. Have a couple of them from Amoeba Music in Hollywood, but they are generally in distribution in the US, I believe.
