Have a good one !

Have a good one !

Best Wishes !

Same here ! One can wish..

Byrd/Adams CD3. 'Chant' and 'The Cat Walk'. Had forgotten just how good these two sessions were !

Uncle Nasty Norman Tebbit Kevin Tebbit

Very, vaguely - fuzzy picture on an old valve B&WTV when I was a kid. I have more coherent memories of his later 'David Frost Show'.

Thanks ! I've pencilled it in for the birthday. Remember the house notice at Ronnie's confirming the gig but didn't make it alas (out of town at the time I think). I have the first Mole release so know what to expect music-wise.

Le Corbusier Lord Rogers Lord Lucan

Thanks for that bogdan. Cheaper to buy over here in '£' by the looks of it at my 'local' vinyl store, must pay them a visit.. Hate paying North American postal premiums.

Thanks for the link - tempting but sadly they don't seem to ship out of the US. Such a huge disparity between the cost of the CD and LP versions of this set though. Is the difference worth it for vinyl-hounds?

Sad and unexpected news for sure. I think the last thing I saw from him was a thoughtful interview he did with Dame Joan Bakewell on BBC4 a couple of months ago. Remember thinking at the time that he had aged quite a bit of late - RIP.

Followed by CD2 - 'The Creeper' session.

Donald Byrd/Pepper Adams CD1

Inner Urge?

Dan Dare Dan Dire Pigby

It'll be Blue Note condoms next..

Bovington Tank Museum?

Bill Evans trio, Ronnie Scotts, 1980

My first 2 Blue Note albums were cassettes - Lee Morgan Liberty-era deletions. Lousy medium - far too many tangled tapes for my liking.

My 3LP box set 70s French reissue on RCA, bought as an import, has that cover design too.

Hope it was a good one ! :party:

No mentions of 'fanny packs' yet in this thread? Or 'knocking someone up in the morning'? I've seen North Americans reduced to jibbering wrecks with the mention of that phrase. And as for someone being a 'hose head'. Still conjours up images for me of a guy with a water hose for a head.

First port of call.. The DIW 'Straight Street' and Prestige 'A Few Miles From Memphis' CDs are good too. Great memories of seeing him in performance at Lincoln Center with George Coleman.

Last week - quite a few of these.. At 5%, definitely lived up to its name.
