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.

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.

I'm bummed that the Dodgers didn't make it again, but at least they were beat by a team that clearly looked & played better. Dodgers need to up their starting pitching & hitting against really good pitchers to take it to the next step. It's well within the possible, just needs to be done.

I just read Hajdu's book on the comic book scare of the 1950s, The Ten-Cent Plague, and thought it pretty solid and well-written. And he did write the generally well-received bio of Billy Strayhorn, right?

Alas, Al, Manne vol 3 has already gone through, and vol. 4 seems very likely.
