And on this one as well: Ned Rothenberg & Peter A. Schmid - En Passant (Creative Works) May, 2004 — Ned Rothenberg: alto sax, clarinet, bass clarinet & shakuhachi and Peter A. Schmid: tubax, taragot, bass & contrabass clarinet (Good CD, by the way.)

Could one be an early morning session and other a late night session?

Nice!

Deanna Witkowski's Wide Open Window is worth a listen. (2003 release from Khaeon.)

Sad news about the label. They issued some very nice titles. The Copland/Peacock title made my 2004 best of year list.

I'd gladly pay you a dollar tomorrow for a hamburger today.

Excellent photos and site design! Congrats! (I've added a link from my site.)

I'm suprised the FCC didn't get a bunch of red states complaints about featuring that song about a promiscuous transvestite! "Sweet loretta martin thought she was a woman But she was another man All the girls around her say she’s got it coming But she gets it while she can Get back, get back. Get back to where you once belonged" -_-

David Binney - Bastion of Sanity (Criss Cross 1261) Feb 22 — David Binney (alto saxophone); Chris Potter (tenor saxophone); Jacob Sacks (piano); Thomas Morgan (double bass); Dan Weiss (drums) Label's blurb: "For his Criss Cross debut, alto saxophonist David Binney, known for his episodic, long-form recordings, presents a memorable straight-ahead recital. "Addressing nine Binney originals and an original apiece by Duke Ellington and Wayne Shorter, Binney and tenor star Chris Potter, backed by Binney's regular rhythm section, pianist Jacob Sacks, bassist Thomas Morgan, and drummer Dan Weiss, uncork a series of heated, lucid solos and achieve a one-instrument sound on the unisons." Recorded April, 2004 in Brooklyn. 77'13.

The booklet of the 858 album includes eight paintings by Richter. (From a series of abstracts.) There's also a slideshow on the CD that goes through the images while the music plays. (I haven't tried that yet.) The music is more varied than his recent Nonesuch efforts.

Marla, where was Brandi's Wharf?

Just hope it's real Cream and not:

I use the Holland Tunnel -> West Side Highway S -> FDR N -> Williamsburg Bridge. Depending on the time of day and year, I've also used 278 from SI, but it's expensive coming back that way. Getting back on *track*, make sure you don't get too near the Amtrak lines. Wouldn't want to cause another *train wreck* now, would you? B-)

I'm thinking about going, especially since I missed him last time. (I heard it was an excellent show.) Hope I can manage the two block walk to the show!

there's probably more, but here's what I remember: grocery store bagger burger chef employee (fired by alcoholic manager after three days) shoe salesman golf driving range manager and pro shop salesman (I knew nothing about golf, btw) night shift receptionist at high rise college dorm furniture mover for college housing department work study job as programming assistant at a nuclear particle accelerator lab assistant editor, Owlswick Press assistant editor, Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine jazz dj, WXPN, philadelphia programmer systems programmer unix systems administrator authentication engineer

Ahhh, but have you seen the announcement of the William Shatner set?

Only caught the tail end; I'll have to go back and listen via the archive of the show: http://www.npr.org/templates/rundowns/rund...Date=2-Feb-2005

Books, cat hair, dust and bills.

Congrats!!

They'll be in philly on 2/23.
