  1. FULLY UNDERSTOOD!
  2. My wife is loving that one. . . I participate sometimes reluctantly; has its moments. I love the latest teaser for tonight: "Two words. . . Oma . . . Rosa." TWO WORDS?
  3. SIMON COWELL: "IF I'm being honest here Joe, not only was that PAINFUL to watch, but you just don't LOOK like a pop star when you are doing that. . . or when you are NOT doing that."
  4. I've only seen Being John Malcovitch of the two, but thought it was genuinely funny and yes, not run of the mill; my wife and I really enjoyed it and I've been wanting to rent it lately to see it again.
  5. . . . and she knows how to use them as the song goes!
  6. A good one, in my opinion! BE SAFE Y'ALL! http://www.grayace.com/dex/bunny.html
  7. Or to answer the question another way. . . I really have since about 1990 been buying more and more of material from the time period of the recordings of the Original Dixieland Jazz Band through the emergence of Charlie Parker as "the shit."
  8. Usually between 7 p.m. and 9 p.m. though on the weekends it may be early morning right after Tower opens (until the store itself goes away, which is going to happen in a few months DAMNIT).
  9. The previous, Doubletime, version's back cover only had seven tracks listed for volume one I believe. . . well, I just checked, it does and a different playing order. Sure you have the RVG? (I know, I know, just checking).
  10. Fuller was the producer or one of them of Britain's "Pop Idol" which this show sprang from, and Cowell was one of the judges of that show. . . . I personally am very tired of Simon and Randy, I don't mind Paula, who is more tactaful with these people on spectacle. Randy has done pop production, he does indeed have credentials, and probably more of an idea of what AMERICAN pop is about than Simon in my estimation. I'll miss Camille actually . . . I think she could develop into a good singer. She's so much better than John Stevens who I've hated from audition one. . . .I can't believe he's still there!
  11. Personally, I think that's bullshit. The man can play, he plays better now in my opinion than he did with Blakey and in the Blues Alley days. Just my opinion.
  12. That's what I would say too. . . nicely summed up there Harold. John, I'd say NO, you don't NEED to get this set; there is more important Ory out there and in your holdings. . . .
  13. I agree, you don't even see Japanese cds of this or the George Lewis items. . . they don't seem marketable even there!
  14. Jim, thanks, I just private messaged her from elsewhere which has always worked.
  15. I'd choose "Two Lullabies". . . not sure why, I just dig it most I guess.
  16. And here he is being the only person at one of his shows which isn't funny, but it is, as sparsely attended as his shows are. . . .
  17. This is a nice photo from what I would guess would be the second period (???)
  18. Dear Folk, Please welcome new member JazzZealot! I know Ms Jazz Z from another forum, the Decware forum, and she's been interested in jazz and interested in some real discussion about music (do you know what I mean? ) so I invited her to stop by! Let's be the warm and inviting and helpful folk that we always are! PS: Guess who her favorite jazz singer is? B)
  19. I found that funny, I've had this a long time as well!
  20. I have and like this set. IF you like New Orleans Style jazz, this has a treasure trove of good stuff in it. IF you're not too crazy about the style, it may be too much of a good thing. . . . Sound is very good and lots of good playing here. The sound and the playing is more polished here for the most part than in the New Orelans set. The singing may take some getting used to. . . I reall love it but then I'm weird! But this band worked and worked and that shows in all the good ways. And there is a fun spirit throughout the set that these musicians brought to the studio and stage with them. I'm not sure how much longer this will be around, a year or two more I would say.
  21. Albert Ayler and Sunny Murray Ornette Coleman and Don Cherry Louis Armstrong and Earl Hines Bix and Tram!
  22. No idea---I would never have picked him for the top twelve! I was happy to see Jennifer Hudson get some solid praise from the judges last night. She's awesome in my opinion, and she's been given a short end of the stick in criticism from judges and been in the bottom three for two or three weeks. . . . I hope she's not in the bottom three tonight. Man. . . Fantasia's getting pretty cocky eh? I wouldn't want to wrangle with HER!
  23. Everything is normal on my cd of the Half Note. The back cover says EIGHT tracks including introduction; the sixth is the Theme (Pure de Funk) and the eighth is Chant, just as the back cover indicates. . . .
  24. Nice to know that a second volume may be out there; would be good for someone to reprint them together. . . what are the odds? Grain of salt? Necessary with any Babs Gonzales!
  25. No, it's NOT a different experience altogether, but I do like it better than the domestic cd.
