I borrowed the fourth volume years ago from the Grenoble library but I haven't bought the CD yet. I sure remember how great Philly Joe Jones was. About the compositions from this session and Bud's form (you can find this term in every liner notes featuring Bud...), I really like John's Abbey which also appears on the BN Best of. What are your general thoughts on the Vol. 4 ?

From BN, great love for the Amazing Bud Powell Series 1,2,3 but I don't like The Scene Changes (except maybe the first track). My favorite from the 1960s are Bud in Paris, Bud Powell in Paris and Portrait of Thelonious. From the Black Lion recordings, Blues For Bouffemont (Invisible Cage) is my favorite but from the others I have(The Essen concert, Strictly Confidential) Bud really shines on many tracks, particularly in quartet with Hawkins. Good memories from The Live in Lausanne, but I barely listen to the music I had purchased on Emusic. Time to get the CD!

I haven't seen that much. Citizen Kane, The Magnificent Ambersons and A Touch of Evil are my favorites. Falstaff and The Trial are eye-candy but difficult to enjoy. No fondness for The Stranger. I am in huge minority, but I've found that the intensity of the Third Man almost vanishes from the moment Welles gets on screen.

The games I have played the most (1990-2010): Super Mario Bros. 3, Quackshot, Warcraft 3, Valkyrie Profile. I had great pleasure revisiting most of them recently on an emulator, but I barely game anymore. For a blitz game online, I usually play Ticket to Ride US.
