It's not Nirvana! But I think I know what you mean... Er. sorry meant Norwegian Wood - Beatles cover. Herbie also does a Nirvana cover in addition to that one on his New Standard record. At least I knew it wasn't the Charlie Hunter version..

The question is how low will Pedro go? 2 million, 1 million or will he just walk away with something left to give if he doesn't feel he is getting what he is worth. There are teams that need him but not at that salary. The Tigers are in for a long year, not surprised they got rid of Sheff. Another week of exhibition games, start the damn season already!

Moon Germs got a re-release in 02 but I guess its already discontinued but I am sure you could track one down easily. Vim and Vigor is on Emusic. I love his first album the Joe Farrell Quartet plus his work with Andrew Hill on Dance With Death and Passing Ships. I need to pick up the stuff he did with Elvin Jones one of these days.

Hey RDK, Haven't given disc two a lot of time but I am really digging the first track, track four the and latin jazz treatment of the Nirvana cover. Its definitely not the Herbie Hancock version as I have that one but I am dying to know who it is. Fun mix, thanks for the link.

Dred Scott Trio - Live At The Rockwood Music Hall (from SF now lives in NY, use to play in Alphabet Soup and and had a Herbie Hancock tribute band, highly recommended) Sun Ra - Secrets Of The Sun Skatalites - The Legendary Skatalites in Dub Thelonious Monk - Misterioso

Nova vs Pitt was a classic, what a game!

This has been my You Tube obsession of week, talk about some great blues. Fred McDowell - Going to the River. Vinyl track of the week: Gary Burton - Silent Spring off the record Ring.

are you afraid of a disease, or do you think prostitutes are unworthy of kissing? not that I know first hand but I thought it was a known rule that they don't kiss. Line of intimacy and all that.

I think you scored with Where Fortune Smiles. Although I don't own it, the samples I've heard are awesome! Just have a cd player and the cd is pretty rare nowadays. I know something is worth only what someone would pay for it but I was surprised to find Where Fortune Smiles for 5 bucks after seeing the CD go for 40 on amazon. Its some killer free jazz. Gave all of these a listen so far and they are all excellent. I think side one of the Szabo and side two of the Burton I have enjoyed the most so far.

1K for a hooker? does this mean the stimulus package is working? Who kisses a hooker?

Villanova - Duke and Gonzaga - N.C will be the ones to watch. Im thinking Duke goes down tonight.

Made the way down the hill from work to Amoeba (gorgeous today in SF!) and picked some OOP releases on vinyl at great prices. Lee Morgan – Taru John McLaughlin – Where Fortune Smiles Gabor Szabo – Live (w/Charles Lloyd and featuring a NSFW cover) Gary Burton – Ring Comments on these are welcomed.

Thanks Jim, I will be ordering this one. I just saw Stanton Moore last weekend with Medeski and Bernard and they were amazing. I miss having Charlie Hunter in the Bay Area. He got unfairly bashed by the Jazz purists and the rockers for having success with both crowds if that makes any sense. I always thought he wrote good tunes and had a unique sound.

Let us know how the "Pure Jerry" is. I didn't order it because Jerry's voice was done by then, coma year etc.. but the sample of Bird Song sounded great. I was just spinning Love Light from the Filmore box set yesterday and was loving the energy on it after having to skip that dud of a song Cosmic Charlie. I should break down and order DP31 since I love 74 so much.

If not then Dreams So Real would be the obvious choice for the Carla Bley factor. Great record.

Initial thoughts, had a brutal couple weeks at work and couldn't get to this. BFT 63 – disc 1 1 – like the groove, it has a little Gene Harris thing going on but I find myself I want to like it more, its not bad by any means but I feel like I keep waiting/wanting for it go somewhere else. 2 – ooh, I dig this, kind of reminds me of the Prince Lasha /Sonny Simmons record they did with the double bases but I know its not that. Has an Ornette Coleman feel. 3. Love this, nice Joe Henderson and Chick Corea 70’s thing but its not them. Will want to get this someday. 4. Not my thing. But I think I am starting to pick up the theme of the mix. 5. Pretty, no clue but I like it. 6. Not a vibest I am familiar with, its nice enough but not sure if its working for me. 7. Gets better after the head but it still feels rushed. Guitarist is trying to sound like Sco. 8. Sounds familiar, I may have had this at one point but didn’t go back to it. 9. I like this so far. It has a 70’s African/NY/Free vibe to it. Good energy, I feel like I should know this. 10. This is quite pretty but the new age synth tamber ruins it, however its gets a lot better once the real piano comes in with the solo. For some reason it makes me think Kenny Werner. 11. At first I wasn’t crazy about it at first but I like it once the solo’s start. 12. Reminds me of the Jimmy Giuffre Fly Away Little Bird record.

As for the title track itself Wayne's solo is just so damn sweet I can't see how anybody could not enjoy it. Its also a fun tune to play but getting the right feel/groove for it is not as easy as it sounds.

Walton has gotten a lot better than when he started and to his credit even when he over exaggerated when trying to be funny he had great timing and he never interrupted the flow of the game where Van Gundy's commentary is all about him and never the game. Its gotten to the point where I won't even watch the ESPN games he does anymore or I turn the sound off. I can count at least 10 times this year where there would be a block on one end and a fast break slam dunk or 3 pointer and Van Gundy is still talking about something only he cares about instead of letting the play happen or letting the play by play man do his job on the most exciting play of the game. I can't stand him. Besides I use to love the Waltonisms. Since he is such a Deadhead it would be fun to have the a option for Bill Walton commentary for live Dead recordings. First song, first solo: "the greatest Garcia solo in the history of the Dead's organization!", oohh, Donna, coming in off key, what was that? horrible!"

This show was incredible. The band was locked in, the energy level and musicianship was off the charts. I can't believe I had never seen Medeski or Moore live before. I hope these guys can make time from their other bands to put out more records and tours.

Dave Steib was great in his day, too bad the expansion Blue Jays were not. He was a favorite of mine growing up because I always felt sorry for him.

I never ever hinted at that, I just never liked the way he talked negatively about his teammates to the press or his politics. Except for winning a big post season game now and then he never seemed like a guy I would want on my team. If character means something to get in the HOF as others on here say it does then being a good teammate should go into consideration.

No, no and no. 214 wins considering how long he was in the league isn't good enough. Plus if the HOF takes character into consideration Schilling is a class A jerk. Great post season pitcher and I would have loved to have pitch for my team in the post season but personality wise I never liked him, even back when he was in Philly.

I heard this show is one of the all time great ones, I don't think I have any 68 in my collection so I just ordered it and very much looking forward to it.

Anybody who would dismiss this record has probably never bothered to play side two or the second half of the CD. Even though the first half is like a Wayne Shorter Greatest Hits Album and I love those tunes its Chief Crazy Horse and The Collector that make this one of his best, what more do you need? Interesting writing, great energy. I also love how those tracks point to where he would go on Etcetera which is a classic. I don't play my 60's Blue Notes as much as I use to but I never grow tired of this one.

I am happy to remove this post if it breaks any rules but I found this off of Rolling Stone and its not an official release. http://www.rollingstone.com/blogs/smokings...-live-in-74.php Link here: http://www.aquariumdrunkard.com/2009/03/11...w-london-013174 Living for the City and Superstition are insane, what a band!
