Delivered today at my door An ebay auction 157 US $, not bad at all. A very good price indeed. Mine 'stung' me a bit more than that ( ) - but it's priceless.

I'm amazed it lasted 50 minues !

Picked up a rare Herb Geller EP on the UK London label the other week - mid 50s issue, sounds near mint. Quartet with Lorraine Geller, selection of 4 tracks from the Jubilee LP. Cost - £3.

Wow - that's a nice offer Porcy ! If I didn't already have the CD set I'd be all over this. Trust you have the vinyl, right?

I've got a few test pressings from the Doug Dobell '77' label which came up in the racks at Mole Jazz. I believe it was JohnS who said that he had a Blue Note Test Pressing of Andrew Hill 'Smokestack' (hopefully my memory is correct on that one).

Flights in to LA from Europe often tend to be exciting, with sudden drops in altitude around 1 hour from touchdown. I've had that happen to me a couple of times.

Yes, the Monk seems to be out of stock even when you input the number direct. The Wes is there though. P&P/shipping to the UK for 3 sets very reasonable at EU 9.20. Hope the packaging holds together..

Looks like I've managed to get the Dexter plus a copy each of the Evans and Pepper sets. I hope these are the 12x12s. Its amazing what you can do with a bit of 'cod' German.

It's up there with 'Soul Station' and 'Roll Call'. One of his very, very best.

Thanks Tjobbe !

Zweitausendeins?

Is this the 'big box' version?

I remember the old HK runs into Kai Tak. There was the final approach turn and run between the condominiulms where you could see those people hang up their washing on the balconies ! I've had a few scary runs in the past and am not a great fan of flying. The one that immediately comes to mind is a short haul flight with Lufthansa between Franfurt and London. It took 2 hours delay to get airborne because of storms over the UK. On approach at Heathrow I was looking out of the window seat with the plane about 1000 feet before touch down and the wings all over the place. I remember thinking 'no way is this one going to land here'. Within seconds the pilot had nosed up and cranked the engines on to full for a 'go around'. Very calm announcement stating that we would probably try another airport (German pilots are just GREAT at times like this). In the event we landed with no hitch at the second attempt. Sometimes you are very glad when you fly Lufthansa. Bumpiest flight was probably Minneapolis to Cedar Rapids Iowa in a blizzard, in a twin-prop. Another delayed take off and the aircraft was 'cold' when we hopped on board. There were quite a few Rockwell Collins avionics engineers on board that night and most of them looked a bit on the nervy side.

Have a great one, Tjobbe !

Happy Birthday !

Are you really 100? Happy Birthday !!!

I've just got 'first class' and 'second class'. Not sure what that is in cents..

Well, I can go one better. I live 20 paces away from the Post Office..
