Maybe the Ric Colbeck will see the light of day on CD reissue this time round? I agree that the two Neil Ardleys would also make really great reissue candidates. Both are excellent.

Good stuff. Much more preferable than that excuse of an exhibition of pointless bling by Damien Hirst in Tate Modern. Only £36k in the gift shop for a spun painted skull. Struth !

In your dreams! Really? Well, it would be nice - after all this time. I would also like to see Joe Harriott's 'Movement' and 'High Spirits' out on CD but I guess both of these would be minor miracles too.

Manuel Sybil Basil The Rat

The author was on the TV here the other night - in a 'return to the Falklands' programme, where he was a prominent war reporter for the task force. He had some good insights on the whole thing, amazing to think it was 30 years ago. Must pick up a copy of that '39-45' title myself...

Excellent ! Glad to hear that the new jazz releases continue to trickle through. 'Hum Dono' maybe?

'Count Basie Complete Roulette Studio Sessions' - time today to dig out the vinyl !

Picked my CD up for a couple of bucks at that mega-brilliant Fantasy sale a few years ago, thanks to our Mr Weizen George Braith 'Extension' (BN NY USA, stereo)

Do you mean the coin (aka "Loonie") or the worth-more-than-the-US-currency itself? I liked the Canadian dollar better when it cost 62 cents. Then I went to Montreal 2-3 times a year. Thank you for visiting. The 62-cent CDN dollar kept me out of New York, though. (Maybe you should be thankful for that! ) The period I spent in Canada it went down from about $0.9 US to about $0.6 at the worst point (around the time of the Quebec referrendum) and there were very big increases in taxes. Trips to the US and UK became very expensive. Of course, it improved within years of leaving - but I guess it could reverse back when/if the commodities boom subsides.

Borat?

All the best ! :party:

I'm jealous. Mine is still mid-Atlantic stuck in the damn mail ! Maybe I will get an Easter present delivery? A very early morning spin of Tal Farlow, CD5. Nice !

For once, I'm happy with my Koch CD !

Not bad considering there's only 250 of them... or is it 500?

Had tickets for Ralph Peterson's Fo'tet that I was really looking forward to but it ended up being cancelled due to US/Canada border problems. Bummer !

Wayne Shorter with his 90s 'electric' lineup in Western Canada - around the time that his first Verve CD came out.

Happy Birthday Kyo ! :party:

Or a good Uptown, maybe?
