Good work Mr. T!

I was just anticipating an OP bashing as we've had before. There's a lot of good music here.

It's a good un.

Heck, I think the third is as good as any of the first two.

What was it Chuck said? "I just got a chill."? I just got a chill.

Okay, and what I was thinking about was the compilations like "Red Hot Blues" etc. and the R&B box etc.-- those are well chosen compilations that bring to cd a lot of otherwise orhaned 78s.

Just a personal note: those compilations are far from lousy!

I'd disagree stronlgy that all (I almost want to say ANY) of these saxophonists are "better" than Chariie Rouse!

Don't worry, Shawn is very familiar with that material.

Many many more happy ones!

I played the Quartet with Freeman.

Good luck. My copies have been backordered for days.

It definitely is prime Evans; I broke out this box when this thread started for more listening, this is killer stuff, and as you say the sound is fine.

Okay.. .. .. ..

"Bitches" was recorded for three days starting the day after Woodstock. This fact not contended, is there reason to conclude that Woodstock influenced the album? Was there, for example, a live television broadcast of the festival that Miles and/or crew might have been watching? I don't believe there was any broadcast. One of the percussionists on BB however did perform with Jimi at the Festival! Miles had big ears on the scene at that time I believe.

jazzbo can very tactfully relate that he does not have cable. So did you watch it on your DirecTV or Dish Network? Ha! No, don't have those either, just what comes over the airwaves. Evan, I'm glad I don't have that stuff actually, it saves me from watching TOO much television (which I would define as more than I am already watching as a newly lonely boy!)

I'd like to hear that! Those TEACs are workhorses, the tube "mod" is really peaking my interest. I really don't need a CD player, purchased a Rega Apollo about 1 1/2 years ago, but... I know what you mean by rolling your eyes. . . . I've been tempted because I've hears it's better with CDs than my modified model from him, but hold back because I love the DVD and SACD playback from the machine I have, and don't want to introduce another machine into the system necessarily.

Kay Starr. . . Ella Mae Morse. . . such beautiful ladies. (Pardon my interjection!)

Probably will need an OEM case for that one with that long scale neck!

It's been mentioned before, but hey it bears repeating. Good news for Helen Merrill fans! Both are good albums not available since the Gitanes versions!

Tellin' it like it is!
