ARRRRGH! Everything _BUT_ powerbooks! Oh well.

Borders 20% off coupon through tomorrow! (thanks, bebop!) "As far as I'm concerned....." ← Thanks FFA. Now Jim, FU. You just cost me 20 MF dollars! (You start talking about screaming and shit and I'm all there) ←

Goddammit, Jim, I wasn't going to get this. I _really_ wasn't going to get this. I've bought too much this fall already! But then you had to go and compare it to Paris. Shee-it. Screaming? Sold.

True statement. 4/4 demolished jewel cases from this last batch of Conns from CD Universe. They are good, however, about shipping replacements pronto. True. A major plus is that the man knows how to properly package things up. The box that arrived today looked as though it had been hit by a falling oak but none of the mini-lp corners were dented...not a cracked jewel case in the lot. He puts the ten-thumbed members of the packaging crew at CD Universe to shame....as does Amazon Japan. ←

Wholeheartedly agree--unparalleled service!

Well, as long as we're "hanging it out there," I'll show mine: 1917-1942: I got nothin'. Yes, you read that right. Pathetic. Mea culpa. 1943-1959: Missing the Tristano, got everything else. 1960-1979: Got it all. 1980-2000: Missing the M's, got everyting else. I already knew this, but I've got to get conversant in pre-1957 jazz. Thanks for the list--it will indeed be a good start. P.S. If anyone wants to help guide me down the path of 1917-1942, I promise to be a "willing student"!

Damn, that's terrific news. I really wish I could have been there!!! Glad to hear it was a success...can't wait to hear more details in the coming days! That's pretty much what happened too. It was great to hear the band live! ←

Never underestimate a good seance. Guy ←

Ask him/her if he/she'd like to buy mine! (serious comment!) PJ

Dude. Listen to what jsngry says. Learn it. Live it. The man knows whereof he speaks.

The big ORG goes onstage in 25 minutes. I wish I could be there, guys! Here's sending some positive vibes across 3,000 miles. Knock 'em the f___ dead!

Tasty CTI vinyl!

Pan seared halibut cheeks, with smashed/sauteed potatoes with chives. Yum!

Oh no, this is really a bummer. I recently picked up New Train and really love it. Way too young is right. RIP.

You will LOVE this record. See also: AOW discussion.

Thanks, Mike and David. I have to admit, my first reaction was, WTF? Second reaction was, wow...that could be really incredible or really terrible. Glad to hear it's the former. And thanks for making me spend _more_ money.

Saw this in the store the other day; a look Amazon tells me there's a "companion" record called "together again." I had no idea these recordings even existed. Worth checking out? Seems like an..."interesting" pairing, to be sure, one which I can't even imagine. Thoughts appreciated!

NY USA. Sweet!

Far be it for me to criticize, but, sorry...

Welcome back!

Tony, is that maroon turbo on the far left of the second row the same one you posted a pic of a while back? That damn thing keeps catching my eye...might have to import one!!! Talk about a picture you could never take stateside!

Very cool!

NOT from my collection:

With apologies to RonS: All I know is he promised to buy me a drink at Baker's then didn't show up! ←

You know, that was my first thought, actually; followed immediately by "who can it be now"! (not instrumentals, I know, but I'm trying...)
