  1. Molloy is possibly my favorite novel, and relatively accessible, then they get progressively more difficult. IIRC, The Unnameable may be one long paragraph.
  2. When I was a teenager in the '70s, Sam Goody's had a policy where you could return up to 5 LPs that had been opened and played simply because you didn't like them. I used to tape a lot of albums on a reel-to-reel recorder.
  3. Fayard Nicholas Bayard Rustin Byard Lancaster
  4. This long tail is wagging a very little dog.
  5. Lon Chaney Dick Cheney Satan
  6. He's fantastic, but his playing with Pelt is more conservative than with his own trio.
  7. Loyal Sandusky wife/enabler besmirches victims: http://abcnews.go.com/US/sandusky-trial-hears-wife-defend-husband-criticize-victims/story?id=16601332#.T-Hfib_PZJh
  8. John Q. Public Robert Q. Lewis P.D.Q. Bach

    Kenny Barron

    In that case I prefer Bartz, Barron, Williams and Riley to Sphere. IMO, Bartz is the far more compelling sax player of the two.

    Do any of those compilations include his stuff with Basie?
  11. Barnett Newman Charlie Barnet Bunny Berigan
  12. Why do you say it's from Larry Goldings? The author is David Lowery.
  13. Lawrence Block Ernst Bloch (philosopher) Ernst Bloch (composer)
  14. Amon-Ra Gene Ammons Jughead
  15. Mal Waldron is Tom's Niagara Falls.
  16. Django Reinhardt Django Bates Norman Bates
  17. Clarence Birdseye Clarence Beeks Eddie Jefferson

    I preferred Sphere with Bartz to Rouse. I saw them at Parc Floral in Paris on a very rainy day.
  19. John Tower Jim Hightower Hy Averback
  20. That outcome is probably for the best. Just think, that question could have led to another 7 books.
  21. Josephine Baker John Butcher Paul Revere (the candlestick maker)
  22. I'm also suspect of the romantic notion of authentic vs. inauthentic emotion in music. As far as I'm concerned, the "emotional dimension" is one of many techniques in music, part of the lexicon, and if it's successful, I don't care if it's coming from the "heart" or the brain. It's like acting: method acting is only one of many approaches.
  23. Bill Bojangles Robinson Jerry Jeff Walker Walker Percy Damn you, Sngry. Robert Coover Herbert Hoover Bob Mover
  24. And then he led a great big band. When I was a teenager I saw Buck with a small group at a midtown Manhattan creole restaurant called Crawdaddy.
