Re: Fringe: I'm so tired of these "monster of the week" things. Now we have it crossing over worlds. Not exactly the innovation they may hope it is.

I love Geri Allen! I hate Xmas albums! ARGH!

Many happy happy returns Brad!

Many many happy returns Marcus!

Fascinating

Drive released here on Friday. Will be there. Drive excellent. (See Return of Film Corner). You are correct. A little warning about the violence is probably in order for the faint of heart. I'd go further, actually: The violence is ridiculously over-the-top. The term "violence porn" comes to mind. The violence both seemed over the top, and surprisingly realistic. Jarring combo. Loved the film if you can "love" a film like this. Very Jim Thompson imo.

Having it there is certainly an advantage. If you put enough of an order together (more than $35) to get free shipping, it might work. Otherwise it's $21.25 (incl. shipping) for the one disc. I use Worlds Records a lot. Using the free shipping makes it close enough in price to other sites, and they get European items before other sites, and their selection and inventory is top notch.

Worlds Records shows it available now. http://www.worldsrecords.com/cgi-bin/storeR.cgi?specific=itemcode&phrase=72689

Well, if he was serious about "Caravan" being written for him, he's wrong (written by Tizol, first recorded in '36.) RIP Butch! You played your ass off!

Many happy happy returns Ken!

Prince was awesome. I voted Ayler.

Hope it's a great one Rod! Where ya been?

I have the RVG. Sounds non-wonky to me.

Great to hear that!

Hope it was great and many many more happy ones!

I've more often seen that photo listed with Devon Wilson as the woman on Miles' right, and I confess it looks like Devon to me.

Love this series of books about Amerotke, chief judge of Egypt during Hatshepsut's reign.

I have these. Great music in fantastic J. R. T. Davies sound. And impossible to find at this price.

Yes, pretty sure that was a photo from the Jazz Party recording session. Here's another.

Never saw that cover, and it's a nice one.

Me neither. But looking around about Hodges I found this cool picture that doesn't even have Rabbit in it.

Really liked Tree of Life. I'm skipping Moneyball. Hate sports movies. . . don't watch sports. Hoping to see Drive this weekend.

But the flip side to that is that if you make your intentions known this saves a lot of wear and tear on those you leave behind at a time that they don't need to be trying to conceive of let alone arrange your funeral. I agree that anything of an elaborate nature etc. can be narcissistic overkill.

I wish Verve would somehow get enough testerone to try a Coltrane budget bootleg again (and again). We had Olatunji, we had the Half Note material. Now give us something else in the best possible sound. Please.

I won't care. I won't be there.
