  1. Oh, well thank you very much. . . . ARGH!
  2. I pretty much agree, but I did it anyway. The cd is very nice. To say it is a "little bright" may be an understatement: when the violinist is performing it can be "piercing" but overall the sound is good, and great performances!
  3. I went with the title track. I just love the variety and the shifting texture, and that amazing trumpeting! I can still experience shock and awe listening. . . .
  4. Looks interesting. Blue Moon. . . some interesting stuff from the "I never heard of dat" category seems to come out of that label two or three times a year! Hey, send a copy or an email to Danny and you'll probably hear something about it. . . . I can help you with an email address if you need it.
  5. Although I've gotten roped into a lot of "honey do" things today I have gotten some good listening in. . . . I feel almost recharged after a very wearying (not just physically!) work week. I don't do a lot of walking with headphones for two reasons: one: around here they just don't respect pedestrians and when I walk I need to have my attention on staying unstruck; two: I really overdosed on headphones in my amateur recording of bands I was in and friends' bands days. . . hours and hours spent with headphones on remixing the same songs over and over. . . soured me to the "in your head" experience! Right now I have the new RVG of "Sixth Sense" going. . . damn it sounds good!
  6. Actually according to a Mosaic statement, French Verve had a cd set planned at the time, which unfortunately never saw the light of day; Mosaic could not get the cd rights but in hindsight it's too bad they didn't.
  7. Lps mastered by RVG. Wonderful music!
  8. Many many more returns!

    TAKE 6

    Will they make me forget all about. . . the Boswells? I've heard a few tunes I like, but I've not bought anything. . .because I've also heard the BoysIIMenesque material. . .
  10. I do. But not necessarily CHEESE whiz. Some places have standards.
  11. Doesn't matter what he eats here in Tejas. . . he's not going to win this state. (Even if by the oddest of chances he really won the state, the fix would be in.) I wish it were even remotely possible!
  12. There are times of course, both at home and at work, when I don't listen to music for longish periods of time. It takes a big toll on me! I'm much happier when I can hear it, even in the faintest background!
  13. I certainly don't want to do anything that might endanger the Kerry campaign. But here in Texas. . . no one knows any better. And I lived in Philly from the ages of 2 to 11, from 1957 to 1966. . .a n d I don't remember any Whiz on hoagies! Of any kind! (The kind of Philly hoagy I long for is the italian type! YUM!)
  14. Shoot, I'm glad you didn't pass on that one, I think the upgraded sound is great! Today I preordered the Ayler box set from cduniverse.
  15. HEY, when I make a cheesesteak hoagie, I use SWISS CHEESE. That stuff makes a very fix it and forget it adhesive!
  16. Nothing mystical or even politically inspired. It comes in a can, or a jar. It looks. . . well I don't like its looks. I once saw my brother eat some that had sat on a cracker so long it had HARDENED. THAT DID IT FOR ME! NO MORE WHIZ!
  17. Hmmmm. . .that would be annoying. Luckily for the last decade or so I can sleep my six or seven hours. . . and that's it. I wake up on my own after that amount of time or by my little helper cat and . . . that's it, I can't go back to sleep so I get up and start the day. Get some good early morning listening in that way!
  18. Yes, I vaguely remember the joys of driving and listening. . . .! NOT possible for me.
  19. Yes, all our pals there: BE SAFE!
  20. It works. . . try some refried beans in there too. But it's not going to win a taste test against some real mexican cheeses. . . but hardly would it be expected to. I voted against the Whiz. For many reasons.
  21. Okay, some of you ARE at home listening, some of you are lucky to work at home in any capacity and listen . . . . I'm lucky to be able to listen at low volumes at work the ten hours or so I'm here a day, or else I'd go nuts. But I've been so happy with my stereo system lately that I honestly wish I could play hookey and stay home and listen; I sure wish I were at home listening to my stereo right now. I can't wait for tomorrow morning's listening. . . I live for my solid listening sessions on the weekend. It sure is expensive, being a music lover, but the rewards are a good compensation!
  22. "Really warm person. And one of my favorite drummers." Hey that sounds like someone I know named Andrew!
  23. It's weird. I had a two cd Miles "Big Fun" on CSP, and that doesn't fit the profile. .. was damned glad to have it for years and years!
