  1. yes, thankfully it's all still available on archive.org even if the original site is gone.
  2. They do play as listed. Chuck is correct.
  3. yeah, those Rod Levitt records are excellent. There's one album of 'pop' tunes that I don't have, but the rest are keepers for sure.
  4. Roscoe Mitchell -- Old/Quartet -- (Nessa)
  5. Totally. I've gotten that way with Brubeck. My dad was a huge fan at one point when I was a kid (his tastes have shifted somewhat) and it took years of other listening to come back to Brubeck's classic music with Desmond and company. Brilliant.
  6. My god, I never noticed the typo either -- and I should have!
  7. Gotta be that Little Richard LP. Look again.
  8. may not be right:
  9. I am guessing that the guy holding the record is also the guy on the album cover.
  10. Grant Hart, co-founder of the influential punk band Hüsker Dü, has died after a long battle with cancer at 56. Far too young. http://variety.com/2017/music/news/husker-du-grant-hart-dead-1202558122/
  11. wow. much harder to do in this country, but it's certainly his decision and I'd heard he was dealing with some serious problems. Glad you got to spend those formative years alongside him.
  12. As for LPs across genres know that anything you need/want to sell I'd be happy to provide a loving home for or find someone else who could (and give you similarly great prices).
  13. Oh man, just seeing this. Very sad.
  14. I'm told Dusty Groove buys CD collections and pays very well. You might want to look into them, especially as they carry your new releases and Rick certainly seems to respect your ear.
  15. Yeah, it's a shit-show. My folks are down there and hunkered but it doesn't look good (FWIW they are in Montrose, not too far from Buffalo Bayou/Allen Parkway). Unbelievable devastation.
  16. Giorgio Gaslini -- Dall'Alba All'Alba -- (La Voce Del Padrone, IT orig)
  17. Lucky Thompson -- Body & Soul -- (Nessa)
  18. yeah, it's beautifully concise and Moses is one of my favorite drummers.
  19. Clifford Jordan -- Bearcat -- (Jazzland, stereo)
  20. If you have time, I recommend the Louis Armstrong House & Museum in Queens. It's way out there but worth the visit.
  21. I believe so, yes.
  22. yeah that death hoax dot com bullshit is really annoying. It's a fake news aggregator to be avoided as a source at all costs.
  23. Heard last night but didn't want to post w/o confirmation. Very sad news -- he was one of the greats.
  24. he co-led the Fine Wine Trio with Bobby Kapp and Richard Wyands in the late 1990s/early 00s.
