Put me down for digging the Thad Jones. I'm listening right now and groovin'!

He was a fine drummer! I was just listening to him with Pops yesterday. Thanks for all the music Danny!

Yup.

I have the next Ellington Single on preorder and will preorder the Braff when I can. Next big set may be the Rich.

I've got the Capitol box set. For me it. . . just the right amount, well-selected.

Danielle, welcome back! Hope you learn to play clarinet as well as my favorite clarinetist Pee Wee Russll! (Born with the name Charles Ellsworth Russell.) Have a happy Easter. Things are only mediocre with me, but I'm hoping for improvements.

GOOD ONE

I like all nuts I think. I love natural peanut butters. Give me a choice and I'll eat macadamia and brazil nuts. Just love both!

I'm with you. Should have put a smiley there!

Great price! This is going to be a fun release!

Just wait for the Lone Definitive Jazz Hill Gambit Factory version. Won't be long.

Chu Berry, disk 2

I think Blue Moon releases will get you most of the way there, if I am remembering correctly. Here's the Mosaic set's discography, that should come in handy. . . .

I had been meaning to ask you about the availability of this one, so count me in; I've made a paypal payment.

I have the Wes and the Cannon. I haven't been able to psych myself into reading the notes. The sound is excellent!

It's being reissued again? I like this one. Need to remember to pull it out again and spin it soon. . . my stereo sounds so good lately and this will be a gas to listen to again. Good stuff!

Many more happy returns! My your disco never be over graphed!

Are you sure this wasn't an April Fools Day thang!?

It's just plain cruel to mention this. A pox on ya!

Marry her NOW.

Well. . . you'll get there, with her help. Wow. Encouragement from a girlfriend? She's definitely a keeper!

I just completed my RVG collection (I only needed 9). Thanks!

Good enough.

Twins! That's how they could argue with me for hours!
