In my recent discoveries I've been not too surprised to find that I prefer Beethoven's solo piano, piano and cello and string quartet works to concertoes and symphonies.

I've gotten three of my four orders. The only one I haven't received is the first one I placed. Two show in process, including the first. Weird.

It's time for you to make up your own mind.

Many many happy returns!

Anyone have a Fender Strat/Tele bridge ("ashtray") cover they don't want? I'm looking for ones that will fit the bridge on say a '72 Tele Thinline Reissue. . . . The one Fender sells on their site does NOT (http://www.fender.com/products//search.php?partno=0992270100)

Here's how I've always viewed that (which doesn't mean it's correct): The master tape is transferred to digital tape, and then the session is remixed in the digital realm, like in a Sonic Solutions station, etc.

I watched Season One. I think I'll skip Season Two.

Merlin, NBC. Feh.

I still think of the trio of Monk, Powell and Hope with awe. Three big rivers. . . that can spawn many tributaries.

Got the lime by accident. 'Salright, but I prefer plain Perrier, and a handful of other sparking mineral waters to Perrier.

Charlie Parker, Gerry Mulligan, Slim Gaillard

Well, at a used book store I found all ten Amber books in paperback for a total of ten dollars. I don't have high expectations of them, I just wanted to have some books I could read and slip in my back pocket as I go around places and these fill the bill. (I read a long string of books that seemed to weigh a few pounds!) They're fun. They hold up okay if you don't think through too hard. I'm not enjoying them like I did when I was reading them upon first publication, but I'm definitely not that guy any longer.

I reread "On the Road" in the "scroll version" last year, which was significantly improved over the edited, released version. Just started Roger Zelazney's "Guns of Avalon." (Not the first time I've read it!)

My late wife Helen always maintained she thought that MJ was weird, but not a pederast. She thought that he settled this case to just make it go away even though it was pure fantasy for money, and she thought that he did love children and did want to be with children in intimate, close ways but that he wouldn't abuse or hurt children. It was just her gut feeling. I wasn't as sure as she, but I felt she could have been right. She would enjoy seeing that confession from Chandler and hoped it was true.

She's got legs And she knows how to use them

Interesting. Thanks for posting that.

I forgot about this one

Well, you're slightly misrepresenting me. I'm quite interested in the musical material of this archive volume. I'm less interested probably in the contents of future volumes as though I listen to Neil through the decades, I'm most passionate about his material up to the middle of the 'seventies or so. If this were a Thin Lizzy archive on Blu-Ray, or an ABBA archive on Blu-Ray, despite my interest in the technology anc curiosity of its implementation in this sort of project, I'd . . . pass. Resoundedly. It's interesting that the Blu-Ray version is apparently "sold out" from the distributor (still available for sale from vendors, but all units have apparently shipped to vendors). I think they underestimated the demand for Blu-Ray in this market slice.

Earl Hines' playing is recommended.

That's definitely true.

Slightly gushing review that spells out what's inside the Blu-Ray and gives a sense of the depth and scope (and killer sound). http://www.tonepublications.com/spotlight/...ol-i-1963-1972/
