  1. If I had law librarian experience and was fluent in French, you're damn right I'd apply to the UN Librarian position that's up right now... that would be super cool!

  2. Listening to Carnegie Hall now - still a fine set.
  3. Sometime I will get my dad to properly recount the story of going over to the Brubecks' house in Norwalk and playing their piano with Dave, four hands on deck.
  4. When I first heard his music I was absolutely NOT interested (my dad was/is a major fan). I came to appreciate it later and am glad I came around.
  5. Holy crap. Not inevitable and quite a long run, but damn... RIP.
  6. The America pressings I've seen for routinely cheap prices on eBay/etc. $15? Great sessions.
  7. Right, assume it's through Dave and the folks at Nameless Sound.
  8. I have this one on LP - it's a doozy.
  9. Wow.
  10. Three more job apps down, 179700890847908708 to go in the foreseeable future.

  11. Gosh, he's a young guy too. Wishing him a speedy recovery.
  12. My Dad Is Dead - The Taller You Are, the Shorter You Get - (Homestead)
  13. I do have Blown Bone in its Emanem CD incarnation. Good stuff.
  14. I have several that I enjoy... Jerome Cooper/Kalaparusha/Frank Lowe trio Positions 3 6 9; Sunny Murray Charred Earth (Burrell, Lancaster, Bob Reid); Frank Lowe Doctor Too Much (Dara, L Smith, F Williams, P Wilson) really stick out.
  15. I have many, many "hipper" records to listen to than "Engine Takes to the Water" but sometimes it just feels so right to put this on. Party like it's 1995.

  16. I don't have that one. Will have to nab it sometime.
  17. Saxophonist Ted Brown in concert tonight. The Drawing Room, 70 Willoughby, 7:30 PM / 10 bucks. You will want to be there.

  18. No; you apparently need a promo code, which is TGLPS50. The site's stock differs vastly from the downloadable PDF "list," which had far more on it that I wanted. Oh well.
  19. Cool - I liked that Camden 70 CD they put out a while back.
  20. I just got the DKV box. It's good but I'm not sure the idea "holds" for seven discs. Not like, say, a 7CD box of Rollins/Ware/Elvin or something.
  21. uh oh, that's no good. Thanks for the info.
  22. Thanks for the reminder on that one; I haven't heard it in a while. Nana, under Vesala's name and with Arild Anderson on bass, is quite heavy in a late '60s/early '70s Euro/free way, but that probably isn't what you're looking for.
