  1. Too bad. He was a fine musician. RIP
  2. Oh nice! I saw the trio (minus any local ringers) in Austin, and they were very good. Been meaning to check out the Levis; thanks for the reminder.
  3. I haven't spun it in a couple of years, but my memory says it's entirely acoustic (with Gary Peacock & Billy Elgart).
  4. What's that thing called where you have a bunch of work to do, are reasonably rested, and have a big cup of coffee after work and then proceed to almost instantly fall asleep for a long stretch? Yeah, no more of that.

  5. I have some but not all of this. I'll probably get it soon.
  6. Baxter's is my favorite; I think it's the most stretched-out of their early albums. I also like Volunteers a lot.
  7. Playing a little Plutonium Farmers air guitar before dinner.

  8. Apparently he's struggling with both health issues and depression, and could use some support. If you want to send him letters or give him a phone call in Paris to wish him well, please PM me and I'll pass along the info. I've been okayed to spread this message around.
  9. Hey Austin Facebookers - putting a call out for a decent photo or two of The Clean from Saturday's Chaos in Tejas performance. My review is in the Austinist queue but as we didn't have a site photographer on hand, I'm at a loss unless I use a stock image. You'll be credited AND I'll buy you a beer. This goes for Moss Icon as well. Thanks!!!

  10. Never thought I'd own an album with the instrumentation of flute/bass clarinet, accordion (not a favorite instrument), guitar, organ, bass and drums but between Buddy Collette and George Gershwin, this reinterpretation of "Porgy & Bess" is pretty neat. And for $5, the price couldn't be beat.

  11. Are those your ticket stubs?
  12. Yeah, my intro to Bley was with Footloose, Barrage, and Turning Point. "Mr. Joy" is a cool tune; think I got my copy of the album from a dollar bin, in nice shape too.
  13. Buddy Collette - Modern Interpretations: Porgy & Bess - (Imperial Interlude) Nice find; a $5 clean mono copy. Odd little record.
  14. Congrats to Paula and Cyrus on their new addition!

  15. Yeah, it's a really fine date, though I'm curious why they left Murray's tune "What To Do About" off the CD.
  16. Oh yeah, that is a good one.
  17. Limelight also put out a number of the Philips 21e Siecle LPs in the US.
  18. Not to be confused with this Om... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Md-A0IgssDY&feature=related
  19. Super-positive vibes to Tom Carter, get well soon!

  20. Some real milquetoast Mingus on there, too. And that cheeseball Fifty Foot Hose record. Well, actually, that LP is kind of goofy, but I like it.
