To ban all reference to the historical use of the term, within and outside black communities, would be taking PC to a ridiculous extreme. It's also my understanding that the term had at least at much currency within black culture as outside it.

I can't imagine there'd be that many left. If Dusty Groove buys I'd say just go for credit with them, since it's a great business, or list them here. Now it's time for Pete D to check in...

IIRC, dedicated to someone called Teddy Bloom, but a blues, so not on the changes of "Perdido", despite the name. Bird's manager, whose name was actually spelled Blume.

In 1965 my older brother took me to a Shindig revue at the Academy of Music. The Dixie Cups, The Dovells, Steve Alaimo, and, in his public singing debut, Rosey Grier.

Or bandS. Cannonball obviously had a strong enough sense of self to hire tenor/flute players like Lateef and Lloyd who could potentially upstage him. For me, Lateef is the highlight of the Jazz Icons DVD.

Enough with the trope of jazz being a sick patient, or the other one of jazz being an inviolable, sacred art form. Both are, essentially, irrelevant to most musicians and listeners. If somebody wants to mix jazz & hip hop it's neither the salvation of jazz nor its death knell, it's just another episode in a long and multifaceted history of the music in relationship to other genres. This kind of stuff seems "important" to those of us who follow the scene, but I think it's meaningless to most listeners, as well as artists who will, for the most part, choose to follow what they think is right for their own careers, be it with a focus on artistic integrity, or commercial success, or both. I think it's like all those petty battles in academia that seemed important when I was in academia, and are essentially off my radar now.

If you changed #1 to Billie Holiday I'd suspect you were Lester Young.

The "hackers" who create malware are, in general, not the "hobbyists" of old but bad actors who couldn't care less about the "challenge," they just want the best chance for results. I can assure you that if Mac OS had the same saturation as Windows you'd see a much higher rate of compromise.

Pussy Galore Alotta Fagina Hugh Grant (who needed even more)

But Jim does make a valid point: the bad actors concentrate on the systems with the highest concentration of users.

I work in a Mac environment and use a PC at home. I will say, as far as viruses are concerned, that "never" is a myth for Macs. The tech people at work do real-time monitoring of the network, and one day our on-site tech guy comes over to my desk frantically telling me he got a call from the help desk that my computer had some kind of virus or malware and that they'd have to quarantine and reimage my machine to protect the network, so so much for never.

More and more is becoming available. For really early stuff, check out the Secret Museum of Mankind series on Shanachie. There were some really good traditional music field recordings in the original Nonesuch Explorer Series.

Try Houston Person's version.

I hope you've been making up for lost time.

Do you mean the coin (aka "Loonie") or the worth-more-than-the-US-currency itself? I liked the Canadian dollar better when it cost 62 cents. Then I went to Montreal 2-3 times a year.

I saw a guy on the subway who looked just like the appropriately named Donald Meek.
