Have a great day! Many happy returns!

Have a great day Joel and many many happy happy returns.

Love the straight no chaser.

Great stuff!

I believe they were compilations.

I remember three cds. Good stuff!

Small Town Security. Pretty low key "fake reality" comedy. Some funny bits.

Yes, I bet that has a nice sound. I have a Jack Casady Epiphone bass that has many similarities (supposedly based on a modified Les Paul bass that Jack owned) including the Varilux. Great deep low tones. However, as soon as I bought a Fender Jazz Deluxe (I have two) it became clear that the Epiphone was not as easy to play and I loaned it to Shawn to play for some time and it's lain in the case for a long time. . . . I'd be interested to hear how that mute works.

Have you tried it? I found this page/article: http://www.flyguitars.com/gibson/gazette/mutedevelopedforelectricbass.php I would imagine it would have a very similar sound to the "palm-muting" I do with my right hand when playing at times. A different texture to the sound, giving the attack but reducing the resonance of the note.

Those are studio sessions, not exactly the same musicians. http://www.allmusic.com/album/esquires-all-american-hot-jazz-sessions-mw0000199619

It's been a long time since I last researched this, but the last one posted I found most complete and best-sounding.

My friends Dave Laczko (trumpet) and Willie Oteri (guitar) as WD-41 at "Kenny Dorham's Back Yard" (next to the Victory Grille)

I LOVE Cowboy Movie. I like the alternate version with Neil Young on Crosby's box set as well. Right now I've never been crazy about the production and arrangements, but man I love the guitar.

Great news! Enjoy!

Note that the Jazzmaster tremolo is very different than the Stratocaster et al. Subtler, less range. The earlier Macias had some great features, that took it away from the traditional Jazzmaster. This one looks more in line with the past.

The only item I want to buy, a Select, is not on the list. Darn!

Sound is okay, not really great, but acceptable. It's from the tapes that float around among collectors. I can't specifically remember where i got mine, at first Worlds Records listed it and I ordered, but they couldn't fulfill it. I think I then ordered it from amazon.fr

The Bethlehem lp. Such a beautiful singer!

Interesting! Looks more up my alley than the previous J. Macias Jazzmaster (i.e. this is more traditonal, less unconventional/modded) and the price is right. I love my Jazzmaster, a really nice design for a guitar.

Have a great day and many returns!

Many many happy returns Tom!

Second book in a row about Paul.
