  1. Ingrid Jensen at the Rex Hotel looks worth checking out. Nice to see that John T. Davis is still in action on the B-3.
  2. Late to the party. Happy Birthday !
  3. Also recommend a trip out West - the usual spots: Salisbury, Bath, Oxford, the Dorset and Devon Coasts and maybe spectacular Cornwall, if time allows. I will be in London in Aug for one night of the track finals (200m & 800m mens) as the ticket lottery went totally t*ts up and actually gave me some tickets. I'm looking forward to the spectacle but anticipate a nightmare getting in and out of London. For the rest of the Games, the TV is the best bet. The sailing down in Portland might be worth checking out - all of the viewing tickets are sold I believe (at least the ones offered to the UK public) but I'm sure there will be some free places along the coast where you can check it out. Bring lots of dosh - UK not cheap, unfortunately. Good luck with the plans !
  4. A classy guy all round. Well earned !
  5. You mean the moth-balled Tiger Moth? For UK UFOs, this metropolis is ground zero - UFO Warminster

  7. I agree with Bill - June often turns out pretty good, weatherwise - as it did this year. Today was pretty nice down here - classic English Summer's day. Next Summer is also the Olympics 2012 of course so London and other key event venues are going to be manic.

  9. That's the only Patton vinyl I'm missing - and going by the comments here it will probably stay that way (unless I luck out with a fluke find - zippo chance). Looks like the most reliable listening option on that session would be the Mosaic Select.

  11. I sat through a double bill of these guys and Supersilent at Bath several years ago and my ears haven't been the same since.
  12. Jeez - has it come to this?
  13. Happy Birthday ! (can't keep up with all these birthdays )
  14. As with the 'Bitches Brew' set it's a great package and a fitting tribute to this session. Miles-o-philiacs with turntables are going to want it but I don't think that $70 is that outstanding a deal. I picked it up for £35 in a HMV high street sale a few years ago.

  16. Awwesome ! You're in for a treat. I think mine was about 20 Euro from '2001'. Hard to beat at that price !
  17. Very sad to hear, if confirmed. RIP - certainly a TV icon for some of us here when we were growing up.
  18. Good karma being beamed in from across the pond.
  19. I was hoping that they'd get round to offering the 'trumpet case' again as they'd messed things up first time round. Grrr !
  20. This news has made my day - well done, Brownie. And long live Mr Sheldon. Was that the 'Chet impersonating in bed' story?
  21. Thanks. Hopefully in stock at my local HMV outlet tomorrow (while it's still standing, that is..)
