  1. I didn't even look at the list, sorry. It was the only Audioquest cd I had so I knew it was "out there." It's pretty good, interesting, need to dig it out again.
  2. Is that all? Some people are so easily confused! That's the one!
  3. Half.com shows this as being a 1989 Denon cd, looks good (they don't have it in stock). I've never heard it. Song List 1. Don't You Know I Care 2. Caravan 3. Day Dream 4. Satin Doll 5. I Got It Bad And That Ain't Good 6. Prelude To A Kiss Album Notes Personnel: Archie Shepp (tenor & soprano saxophones), Walter Davis (piano), Earl May (bass), Philly Joe Jones (drums).
  4. Sumbitch should stick to Jobim!
  5. I thought it was about G W. . . don't know why.
  6. Hmmm. . . I wonder if I would be content to stay in LA and do film scoring? I guess regarding the Newton I should have said "It's trippy." Much clearer, right?
  7. Welcome! Glad to have you here and please stay!
  8. Hey how did I get involved in this? I maintain: You can call me Lon, and you can call me Lonnie, but you don't have to call me Lonson! (Isn't that sort of how it goes?)
  9. Hey, I sort of wish I could have waited and gotten the set for anywhere near what you did; I think I paid 90 or more!

    In my opinion the best from him so far is "Symbols of Light, A Solution"--quartet augmented with string players and excellent writing and performing.
  11. You know this "Legacy Edition" is a nice series, but not as nice as the series that inspired it, the Universal "Deluxe Edition" series. Now THAT is a great series!
  12. Look at the bright side. . . yourmusic.com will probably carry it!
  13. Maybe he's getting them from yourmusic.com for 35 dollas (or 42 dollars if he's a 5.99 member) and making a few dollars on ebay!
  14. I think I sort of agree with almost anyone here. . . And I certainly agree that this is one great reissue that I bought on the day of release. . . ! I agree with Chuck for the most part, that Pres was nearly superhuman and then became so deeply human. . . . I love the whole work. Thank God for Lester Willis!
  15. Loved whether want to be loved or not. . . that is one damned good thing. . . ! Extend my congratulations to the Loe Day creator, and have a great love day everyone!
  16. Many more happy happy ones Big A!
  17. This is total bullshit! Is it May 10 yet?

    LP to CD

    The HHB ones are real nice indeed!
  19. Yes, I've not seen these around for sale for a while. . . I think that there is distributor problems because I haven't seen any Ember cds around for a while. I think the Charly set mentioned above is the same material, maybe even the same remastering? It may have taken the place of the Ember? Worth pursuing!
  20. I've loved every country I've been to. . . Ethiopia, Egypt, Kenya, Swaziland, Mocambique, Egland, France, Italy, Greece, Germany, Canada. . . it's such a wonderful world. My favorite places that I visited I would have to say are. . . Ethiopia and Greece. Ethiopia. . . such a vast and varied place, such fascinating people and places, the churces in Lalibela, the walled city of Harar, the facinating capitol Addis Ababa. . . . Greece. . . I loved the air and sun and the antiquity, and the Aegean Ilses and. . . well send me back there, I was only there one week and I'll never forget it!
  21. I have an Ember four cd set of Bird at Birdland, that has since been divided into two volumes of two cds each. Details: http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?...yle=music&Bab=E http://www.cduniverse.com/productinfo.asp?...yle=music&Bab=E Sound is quite good as far as the sources go. . . for instance this version of the date with Fats has even more material, and sounds better than on the Cool and Blue/Fresh Sounds issue.
  22. That's okay. . . Jim R doesn't have enough ROOM for another birthday! Many more happy ones, anyway!
  23. Many more happy ones!
  24. Well, those little snippets were designed for actual performance points in a mass, so yeah, they don't hold up as well as part of a cohesive concert experience. I dig them though. Hmmm. . . I thought it WAS Leon yodeling. Will have to relisten with an ear to possibilities later on. . . . What grabbed and thrilled me about this release is how it has captured the SOUND that MLW creates from the piano so well. Mary was a master of all the elements of the piano, but I'm fascinated with the individual sound that pianists can conjure up, and I love to hear MLW's when I can (wish I had been able to hear her live!) This recording has moments when even with a chorus and a flute or french horn and an electric bass and drums going you can hear her notes ring out distinctively, and you can feel the resonance she gets out of the body of the piano. Wonderful!
