  1. Hell I like them better than some Freddie Hubbard dates or a few other Blue Notes myself. I'll buy them however they come out. (I might prefer them coming from Water actually because . . .well I think lately they're doing better jobs than the Connoisseur series by a sizeable margin.
  2. That Pres S O B was/is like the Ganges.
  3. Thanks for the information Bill. Tried to find those and check myself, but you know me and my archive. . . they didn't jump out at me. I really doubt we'll see them on one but I could be wrong.
  4. Kirby and Sinnott. . . what a combo!!
  5. Jalapeno-cornbread stuffed porchops, baked yams, brocoli.

    And I love the 50s material immensely. . . just not exclusively!

    I haven't explored the lat decade or two of studio material, but I've live material that is PHENOMENAL. As you say Jim, he has a unique approach. . .he's unique.
  8. Me too. . . I think it is a matter of whether you have personal experiences you can relate to in the material and I do. . . . I don't see these as drugged out cries for help rather than a search for direction and hope and I think they're pretty wonderful books. I love Dick the prober of our contemporary world in the earler novels as well, I believe that they are all equally fascinating aspects of this fertile mind and its work. Man, this trailer dampens my enthusiasm but I'll go to see it opening weekend. I like to be alone in the dark!
  9. Thanks for checking in Brownie, don't stay away too long. Hans, the avatar is a still from an upcoming movie from a Philip K. Dick novel, A Scanner Darkly. I'm interested in the movie. . . I haven't seen the avatar as creepy, but it is a sort of creepy novel. . . .
  10. Well, I don't listen to radio, but I appreciate what you do. And you're welcome.
  11. Hans, you know I missed you, thanks for coming back! Brownie. . . come on Brownie. WE NEED YOU!
  12. Sounds like a nice program David. I'm a stone cold Una Mae freakazoid and think I have everything available from her. . . such a wonderful woman and player.
  13. This is the post Bitches Brew material. . . . The two lp/cd "Live/Evil" contains part of these recordings (and some studio material that has appeared in the box sets released). This material has long been a favorite of mine. The nights at the Cellar Door were really good ones band-wise and I'm really looking forward to the set. Jarrett plays here in a way that he didn't otherwise in the official releases and Bartz plays very well, Miles really seems to be enjoying himself and the bass and drums of Henderson and DeJohnette rarely appeared tighter to my ears. The one night that McGlaughlin is on the band stand is a special one, everyone is excited at working him into the pieces.
  14. Good point Mark, that had occurred to me too. And then a counterthought occurred: Keanu will mess it up, it's his nature.
  15. It's Winona Ryder from a still of the upcoming movie "A Scanner Darkly." This movie will feature added computer graphics.
  16. Someone must have disconnected one of the tracks before compiling your cdr.
  17. DOUBLE GOOD NEWS!
  18. I'd buy it too and listen to it right after Blood on the Fields.
  19. And the same again only different
  20. Director and one of the stars
  21. I've come to really like the early novels, and ESPECIALLY the NONscience fiction that PKD produced in the fifties and early sixties. Some of his more fantastic material really seem to be quite topical right now in this Bush-world, such as The Zap Gun and Lies, Inc (and in its own way Clans of the Alphane Moon!). The short stories are AMAZING in the way that they are such concentrated ideapacked constructions, but the downside for me is that the characters and their development--possibly my favorite aspect of the work--are given short shrift. Later material is very interesting too as like Jeff I've weathered some of the issues and scenarios. . . . I see that someone intends to make a movie from "Flow My Tears the Policeman Said" which would could be one Bush-world rocking movie. . . !
  22. By the way my current avatar is supposedly a "still" from the new film. Film is a great escape for me. . . I've learned to really like certain films for an outing with my wife, and others for outing with an excoworker I miss working with--the "guy movies." So when will "The Divine Invasion" be made into a three hour summer epic?
  23. Thanks. I haven't seen it either and I thought it was still AWOL from cd. I've got the vinyl too, bought shortly after release. . . it's WORN happily!
  24. Maybe it isn't three or four minutes, but you'd have to shorten or delete a track to make them both fit, and I wouldn't even want to consider that!
