What number is your set?

One of my all time favorite albums of Charles Kynard is one call "Soul Brotherhood" with Grant Green I so excited when it got released on CD. I had played the LP to death.

I know Blue Note launched one in Europe. Not sure of the wen address. It may be bluenoteeurope.com. I think someone once mentioned it here.

Stories like these make me sick to my stomach. Whomever is at falult, be it the mother or father or bother, they should be held accountable. Poor little girl, she must be very scared.

Has anyone ever done this? It never dawned on me till I read Dan's thread. The thought of losing all my CD's and records, and then having to start collecting from the beginning would leave me depressed for 50 years. All the money I've spent over the years. At least with insurance, I can get back a good deal of the stuff.

That's a good point. Who ever thinks of insuring his/her music collection, usually the just the equipment we play them on?

Do you have a recording that you wouldn’t want to live without? One that touches your soul when you listen to it? What is it? I tried to think of mine but couldn't come up with one. I have recordings, that through the years, I raised above the rest, but it always seems to change after awhile.

I saw some records that I've been searching for. I never used this place before. Has anyone here ever bought from them? I don't like give ny credit card number to places I've never heard of. They give no indication that they are a secure site. http://www.musicstack.com/

Have a great brithday Chuck.

U.S. National - AP Stolen 320-Year-Old Cello Is Found By RYAN PEARSON, Associated Press Writer LOS ANGELES - A 320-year-old missing Stradivarius cello is back with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, having possibly avoided becoming the most expensive CD rack ever. AP Photo Slideshow: Stolen Stradivarius Recovered A nurse found the $3.5 million instrument made by master craftsman Antonio Stradivari lying by a trash bin — and almost had her boyfriend convert it into a CD holder, police said Tuesday. The instrument is damaged but reparable, a restorer said. Melanie Stevens, 29, discovered the cello about a mile from where it was stolen, still inside its silver-coated plastic case. She put it in her car's trunk for two days. Then Stevens asked her boyfriend, a cabinetmaker, to either repair the instrument or convert it into a unique CD holder, Detective Donald Hrycyk said. She said she didn't know its significance until she noticed a news report May 7. "I had the idea to possibly put a hinge on the front. ... He would install little shelves inside," Stevens said. "It would be a very elaborate CD case. I know it sounds crazy." The philharmonic's associate principal cellist, Daniel Rothmuller, who played the instrument for more than 25 years, called the instrument's recovery "an incredible miracle. ... Can you imagine it going into a garbage truck?" Its return was a relief for philharmonic principal cellist Peter Stumpf, who accidentally left it outside his home. Nearby video surveillance cameras showed a bicyclist stole it April 25. "It's been an enormous weight on me for the last three weeks," Stumpf said. "I'm just incredibly relieved that it's solved." However, detectives are still looking for the thief and have not ruled out any suspects. They plan an investigation before deciding whether to give Stevens the $50,000 reward offered by an anonymous donor, Hrycyk said. The prospect that the prized instrument could have been turned into a CD holder "is so abominable, I get sick when I hear it," said Robert Cauer, a Los Angeles-based expert instrument restorer. The 1684 cello was one of only about 60 made by Stradivari in his Cremona, Italy, workshop. The philharmonic association bought it about three decades ago. It is cracked on the front, back and upper rib, but there is no crack in the critical rear soundpost, Cauer said. He said the cello, which had been cracked before, should be ready for play by October. Stevens said she hired an attorney because she wanted to get the cello to authorities and feared people would question her story. Stevens said if she receives the reward money, she will "happily, graciously take it," to start a music appreciation foundation for children.

Ouch!

Yeah, I'm finding it hard. I'm olny on the thris artist in my collection and it's be 8 days. I've been doing about 5 CD's a day. At this rate, I'll be doing this well into 2005.

Then let's just spin his music. The best way to remember him.

We should all not post anything for about five minutes at a certain time today out of respect for Elvin. How about 12 PM EST? You can figure out your time zone.

Streaming some of his music out of WKCR.ORG

This time it is true. I had made phone reservations for his Blue Note shows. I gave my email when I made the reservations. I was emailed this morning saying the shows are off. No other information given. They still have the shows listed on their site. R.I.P Elvin. Hope you're playing with Trane, Eric Dolphy and Jimmy Garrison as we talk about you.

So true, Amem.

My list would be too long. I crank everything up loud when I'm at home and have my earphones on.

I wonder how many users signed up at this fourm just to spam?

I never tried spam. Looks too much like dog food.

True. That's how I first started listen to Benson and Washington JR from all those old CTI recordings.

Another one- Nez. I don't understand the words but she is pretty hot. Kind of techno music.

Sad ti hear this. R.I.P. Tony

Great, I have this one.

Here are a couple links to their catalog.LINK LINK Wow, nice list of stuff.
