  1. In the film Nanni Moretti rides his vespa from Rome to the place where Pasolini was killed by fascists in 1975. Pier Paolo Pasolini, one of the greatest film director we had, I mean I judge him, and I am not the only one, of the same artistic level of Fellini, Antonioni and Rosselini. A real touching part of the movie, underlined by Jarret's music. Koln is simply perfect in this case. About my feeling I am partial about it, because it was my first Jarret's first solo album. In the Sun Bear Concerts, there are great moments too.
  2. A 'Best of...' without 'Stairway to Heaven' ...and without Van Morrison and U2, but maybe they will be in the Irish 'Best of'
  3. I am asking myself: how it will be the mastering quality? I mean that all the ESP reissues, licensed or not, are quite poor in my experience.
  4. I chose FF, let's see what will happen! I am moving all my stuff from an old iMac to a new minimac, MY GOD! Gigabytes of music and photo, and all the password... BTW I am trying to move my old mails, (I mean the mails of all family members accounts ) from Outlook to Thunderbird, have you got some suggestions, a part the 'import' option that doesn't work for Outlook's files? I forgot to tell you, minimac is really sexy!
  5. I decided to move from Netscape to a a new browser. Firefox, Mozilla, Camino? Any suggestions?
  6. I got it when was realeased, never regret. It took to me a while to dig in it, but now I am listening to it regularly.
  7. EBay just bought Skype http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050912/ap_on_...DNqBHNlYwM3NDk-
  8. So do I, sometimes with Byrd on background... ← Admiral Byrd? ← OK BIRD!!! About Kerouac and Navy read this http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/09060..._kerouac_1.html

  10. It seems we have a chance to get one record impossibile to find even in Brownie's collection: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...me=STRK:MEWA:IT
  11. Correct.
  12. I am not familiar with US prices, but you can't go wrong with Pro-Ject and Rega, maybe it worths to listen at the new Thorens too. I presume you are not an HIFI freak like me, but I would check some used TT, at least in Italy you can find brand new used TT at decent prices. One thing you definitely have to do is to place the TT on a solid vibration free stand, I mean that you don't have to to buy some ludicrous priced hi tech stand, but you have to find a good place to 'place' the TT. I use a big block of stone I found in my sister's house when she did some mural works.
  13. Some questions: 350 bucks for the whole system? (turntable, arm, cartridge) New or used? Have you a phono stage on your amp/preamp?
  14. I tend to agree with Sal, not the best BN Morgan date, but, hey, I never heard Lee playing 'bad', and the other players slightly changed the taste of 'typical BN hard bop'. One curiousity, I can hear some 'Jarrettesque' moanin on the right channel on side 1 of my BN LT record, is it Higgins?
  15. Or the Ellington Rca, but CDs are supposed to be perfect and last forever...
  16. Is it any good? Just spinning Basil Kirchin 'Abstractions of the Industrial North' (Trunk Records). From 1966, Jimmy Page meets Tubby Hayes ( ) ← Yes, I mean they are great, but TEN lps of piano solos...in two days That's exactly the reason because I prefer single album rather than sets, and LP rather than cd, my concentration skills faded with my age
  17. I am not a Bert's expert, but I love his playing with Mingus.
  18. I am at the end of Jarret's marathon: just bought a used copy of SUN BEAR CONCERTS, ten LPs to check, and listen to. It's almost a job!
  19. What a coincidence, I just watched at tv a program about the lack of italian young goalkeepers, it seems that our famous goalkeeper's school is faded. We imported gk from overseas, Dida is the name I remember at the moment. The old times of Dino Zoff are gone!
  20. I am not a big fan of fotball nor an expert, but I watch at tv half of the game Brasil Chile. Wow! I am sorry for the rest of the world, me included, but BRASIL IS THE TEAM. I wish Italy could have the long gone defense of AC Milan, Baresi, Maldini, Albertini and Costacurta, against the Cariocas.
  21. At this point you should have spinned enough singles (malt), now you are ready for a swirl Vertigo label record.
  22. Thanks! I think that the solo discs were first iussued in this set and then realeased as 2 single cds from Fantasy.
  23. The highest price in Italy today is 6.47 per gallon for unleaded, if I converted all correctly.
  24. Does anybody know exactly wich original first pressing of Evans' album are included in this box set?
  25. It seems a great program. Enjoy it!
