Ausi le mien.

I don't seem able to get too much of this stuff! That's a good one, that Hodes/McPartland.

You won't be bothered by vocalists! It's "Chicago Style" stuff. . . which is sort of the trad material with a swing and structure all its own. So. . . it's not REALLY like New Orleans style per se. Look here for some selections to hear: http://www.oldies.com/product-view/75252.html

That has worked for me before with my Dad!

Sorry John. . . I just dropped it in this forum by accident. Truth be told. . . I felt a bit controversial putting it on the site. . . figured there might be some flak possibly. . . . Haven't looked at the site yet myself, but I did honor the request to post it!

I was just thinking what I would do would be say "Here's your vinyl set, merry Xmas, and hey. . . here's a set of cdrs so you can listen to it other places!" I have the cd set, and I LOVE it. I think everything about the set . . . the music. .. the presentation. . . the sound. . . the BOOKLET. . . is great.

Jim, sad news. Be strong my friend.

I'm interested in the RVGs. . . . I'll sample one or two. A dvd to the Miles Quintet box? The Red Garland will be great! I have the Japanese version.

Well. . . that was a nice note.

A message from Bob Belden: www.ropeadope.com They are podcasting my FOUR SEASONS, the Deutsche Gramophon suppressed CD project that I did with Patrick Gallois, a French classical flutist. DG hated my adaptation so much that they refuse to license it to anyone. Spread the word...and it's FREE! bb ps ropeadope has more podcasts and videos as well....my internet label...

Hope you have many more!

Likewise the excellent Jamal has no copy protection and is still available.

The Shaw "Stepping Stones" does NOT have copy protection.

Yes, I love that Dylan. . . . My favorite is the Desolation Row with just Dylan, Kooper (on gibox) and Brooks.

I was listening to it when he was alive. Purple Haze came blaring out of the radio from the BBC when I was in boarding school in M'Babane. I was a fan from then on.

They were removed because Sony is recalling all the copy protected copies out there. . . and these titles were copy protected. Will yourmusic.com pick them up again when the replacements are out? We'll see. . . .

Wish the guy were still here!

Well, right on the spine of the inner back cover tray it shows the copy protection logo, and this is visible right from front (clear center trays).

Okay. I'll go via the 800 number I guess as I don't have a UPS store near me, pickup is a hassle I don't want to go through, and in general I think Brown sucks. Thanks. I'm just waiting to play through the Mulligan and Blakey yet to be sure they're okay.

Good advice I guess on the Shaw and Brookmeyer defective discs. . .but. . . these are both labeled that they were produced under license to BMG. . . .May not be the best way to exchange these.

Evan, that Uptown booklet is so thorough. . . I would be surprised if anyone here really could expand that significantly. From what I know about mental illness. . . a) that booklet rang true and b) knowing more may not be that great.

This is hardly my favorite Shaw, but it's a great reissue. . . I had the lp before this and I THINK the expanded version is great. . . MY COPY from yourmusic.com is defective though. . . the final two tracks don't cue up and play properly, it's going to have to go back. Problems also with the Brookmeyer, which I had never heard before and wish I didn't have to send it back, really am enjoying it.

No dogs here. I dare them to find my cat. Plenty of times I CAN'T. Ah. .. still laughing. . . because I need to!

No, I didn't misunderstand you sir, I just was stating my indifference to the thread subject prson. . . .And my hope that his doctor is one of the very best.

I'm laughing still!
