Being italian and a board member I should start a long essay about italian music, but I don't. The guys you named are from different baskets, orange and apple. I suspect this is just an advertising campaign, am I wrong?

In English? MG I am sure his monumental history of Ethiopia's conquering was translated. Not sure about his other works. Maybe you can check at National Library, something, translated, might be OOP. All his work worths a reading.

MG, if you're interested about Africa's history, the best one over here is Angelo Del Boca. It might worth a search on Amazon. The trustful source for italian's damages in Africa.

Free - FIRE AND WATER - Island UK, pink I label

So, who killed 'em? MG Dr. James Moriarty.

Tom Waits - BLUE VALENTINE - Asylum, german pressing.

Yes, I have only to replace the dust bag with the hose and add a plastic filter on the vacuum side. It works great. I use it for the dust all over on my system. BTW Let's make it clear that we are speaking about vacuum cleaners, otherwise you'd censore your own post.

Kenny Wheeler - FLUTTER BY, BUTTERFLY - Soul Note (with Stan SUlzman, John Taylor, Dave Holland, Billy Elgart, 1987)

Lucky man, so you can trade them for that very low numbered copy of The White Album.

Fetichism is a disease, I bet there are people out there ready to pay more then that for used undies of Angelina Jolie or Madonna.

Great, I'll ask to my teacher of my Aikido course to adopt it as official anthem of the dojo.

Must be a bugger to dust. MG I use my Kirby (home vacuum cleaner) as air compressor twice a week.

Free - HEARTBREAKER - UK Island pink rim label

The Doors - LA WOMAN - US Elektra

wow ! low number i presume ? maybe this one ? Not that low! Mine is 0005734. and one .0 less as winning bid.

I thought he is only a top F1 driver, Does he sing too?

Gnocci? Ah Gnocchi! BTW that wasn't my TT. Mine is like this:

Jefferson Airplane - Crown of Creation - MoFi reissue

...and who cares about Chaloff, I got an original mono numbered copy of the White Album with the inserts.

It would be nice, 150/250 bucks on eBay...mmmhh, I'll keep my cd for now.

MC5 - KICK OUT THE JAMS - Sundazed reissue.

I happen to have that CD (and quite a few others from that series) and it's nice listening, and the fact that jazz was prohibited in WARTIME Central Europe (wherever the axis powers were present) is obvious but apparently (luckily) never went to the extremes of a 100% "blackout" in any of the countries affected. So within the scope of what was possible style-wise and swing-wise in Europe (please consider that even in peacetime only a fairly small share of the music recorded in the USA was ever exported to Europe in the 30s to serve as an inspiration to aspiring local jazz musicians) it still was quite decent music and showed some keen awareness of what was happening in jazz. All I meant to say is that not even in Italy there was a total lack of jazz during the Mussolini era (which your wording might have implied to those not familiar with at least a few basic facts). But that's a side note only anway - so back to the main topic of those $$$$$$ earners to sellers who manage to sell originals of the discs of the B-V band (and others of their ilk) to the insatiable Asians. :D Sorry if my wording might have implied something I didn't intend to. It's indeed very interesting the story of those "underground" jazz musicians ("underground" almost in a literar meaning) and what about Goebbel's Charlie and his Orchestra? Fascinating, though weird at the same time.

Actually I think Blue Serge is still available because of it otherwise... Why pay that? www.vinyl.com has 3 different versions available new. Might not sound as great as an original, but should sound fine and you save hundreds (maybe thousands) of dollars. Because I have the cd already, so if I'd going to buy a vinyl I'd like an original or an earlier reissue, or, at least, an audiophile reissue analog remastered from the original master tape by a guy like Hoffman or Grundman.

Lots of High-End lossless digital music servers at CES this year. http://blog.stereophile.com/ces2008/
