Hipnosis. It's "pretty good."

Double yikes!

Congrats! Got the disc yesterday and it is really strong, wild stuff.

Mal Waldron - A Little Bit of Miles - (Freedom/Black Lion) trio w/ Pierre Courbois (d) and Henk Haveroek (b)

Least interesting? Really? No problems with him in the CBBB myself! And the Realm LP The Band Live at Ronnie Scott's is a corker!

Maybe it's Jean-Francois Beck (hence Jef) and we've got the wrong guy!

Actually, the martial stuff is based on traditional music of Senegal, and the more singsong themes are Mbalax-derived. So there you go. Emusic doesn't have liner notes, does it? Great record.

Happy Birthday, Bob James on ESP!

I mostly like spam so I'm glad we have some of that here too.

Times like these are great to familiarize myself with the great records I already have, rather than constantly dragging new things into the house. So do I, listening my existing collection. If I consider my age and the free time I have for listening music, I probably will never listen to any of my records more then a dozen of times. Am I missing something? I just spent $$$ on a couple of pieces...

I "second" that one. The next time I see Lou; I'm going to bring this up.....surely it will stand out....even in his mind! m~ Too lazy to look up that old thread, but would love to see it again for the laffs and good cheer!

Happened with a sealed Horo once.

Wrong. These were cut from the masters by Ron McMaster at Capitol Mastering a few months back. It sure seems like people just like to bitch. "Blue Note stopped making LPs! Waah." "Blue Note is making LPs again! Bah." Make up your minds. These are Blue Note's best selling titles. If they want to find out what the LP market's like, these are the titles to use. If these can't sell, there's no way they're cutting a Tyrone Washington date. Kevin But why so many different variations? We've got: Classic $30 a pop Hoffman $50 These $20 things with CDs or MP3s included $10 cheapies that I always assumed were some Scorpio-licensed lower-rung wax. And many of the same titles in each!

Great stuff on there, even if the twofer isn't collectible.

Yikes! Score!

Elvin Jones - Midnight Walk - (Atlantic blue/green stereo) w/ Thad, Dollar Brand, Mobley, Don Moore, George Abend and Steve James.

Yes, original cover and I assume it is not spliced in any way. I would love to get an OG of that one!

It sounds as though he was autistic or Asperger's to me. Sad ending to a life clearly LIVED.

I think that in this case, it would be triple... Edit to say that he is a good writer, though a little humor never hurt anybody...

Spontaneous Music Orchestra - += - (A Records)

I need to buy another copy of that one of these days. I remember really digging it, and I think I gave it to a friend who dug it even more. I think I did the same thing, though it was mostly a jazz record that I put on for "other people" over at the house (if you know what I'm sayin')...

Bob Brookmeyer - Portrait of the Artist - (Atlantic red/purple mono, dg)

The Thing in Austin at Ruby's BBQ!

Best I've had was in Rome!
