  1. Strewth, you need to use dictionary.com and it's helpful links to other online dictionaries. Strewth !!!
  2. Surely that should be "Strewth!", didn't you read those "Warlord" and "Battle" comics!!!!
  3. Are you calling Bob Blumenthal a liar??? 'cause if you are...
  4. You Sir have good taste, and have prompted me to dig that monster out myself.
  5. There is a reason for that, thanks to the always informative Bob B's extra liner notes, he is actually AWOL. He's not there, Bob reckons that he was just booked somewhere else, as he was a busy man in those days and was late for the session. Burrell is only on half the BACK AT THE CHICKEN SHACK/MIDNIGHT SPECIAL sessions, I never realised this either from the original version or notes, just thought he was quite quiet.
  6. PM sent regarding John Jenkins - with Kenny Burrell (BN Conn)
  7. PM sent regarding the following; Sonny Clark – Sonny’s Crib (Blue Note Connoisseur Series with OBI strip) - $2.75 Lou Donaldson – Quartet/Quintet/Sextet (Blue Note Collectors’ Choice Series) - $10.50 Woody Shaw – Rosewood (Columbia) - $3.75
  8. Thanks for the info Sundog, .
  9. RE Leonard Feather, in the immortal words of Eric Cartman, "Jesus-Rollerskating-Christ".
  10. The Red Saunders Research Foundation
  11. And in a sneeeeeeeeky and sly bit of spam for my current sale, if you would like to hear what he sounded like with the group you can do so by purchasing this item, The Historic California Concerts 1954 from my current sale, in Offering and Looking For... Incidently the liners credit Teddy Edwards for the access to the original tapes without the edits to the other guys solos.
  12. Although it's not strictly JAZZ, it is jazzy and most definitely groovy, and I have been listening to it a lot recently; T-Bone Walker: Complete Capitol/Black & White Recordings. Amazing stuff, he was just so cool.
  13. Yea, somebody better start spilling some beans.
  14. She's a bitch, but I love her.
  15. This is a good idea. People who want to post things like, "this is sad news etc, etc" or "I was shocked to hear this news, very sad etc, etc" could do so and if you want to talk about an individual's music you could do so in the "Artists" thread. Also, I sure Pavarotti would be thrilled with the fact that in death he can start a heated debate on an internet message board about Opera/Jazz that references Ronald Reagan. It's how we'd all like to be remembered.
  16. The “Artists” thread is starting to look like a morgue/cemetery, pretty soon there'll be more posts about the dead than the living.
  17. Chuck, how did you resist the urge to go, "Sony Rollins mentions"????? Could it be you're losing your touch?????????
  18. I give a hearty "AMEN" to the later half of this sentence. The thing I think is most reveling about the Keepnews notes in this series and others before the series is that he seems to have had more dumb luck than a Lottery winner throughout his career. In the notes for “Really Big” he claims he didn’t even know most of the musicians that ended up on the album were going to be at the session and then kinda takes credit for making the thing happen at the same time. I’m not against the guy being proud of being involved in some great music during Jazz’s so called classic years, but come on, a lot of it, if not most of it, would have happened without him anyway. For example there is no way Monk would have continued to be ignored for the whole of his career, when so many musicians rated him so highly during the 50's, and he only really "made it" when he went to Columbia.
  19. DMP, if you really are buying some of these purely for the liners, you need to put down the Crack Pipe, or at least take a break for a while. Also, in the notes to "Really Big" he goes on for ages about how HE came up with the title, like it was the be all and end all of the whole project, and how it was borrowed from Ed Sullivan, who apparently was really popular at one time, I'm under 40 and I live in Ireland and even I knew that. It's still a neck and neck race between him and good old Ira for most pointless liner notes...........EVER. :rolleyes:
  20. It's a serial mouse, and unless the pins are bent or broken, it's kinda difficult to do any problem determination, but at the top of Device Manager will be your PCs name, unplug the mouse, right click the PCs name and select scan for hardware changes, let it do it's thing, plug the mouse back in and right click and select scan for hardware changes, it should pick it up that way or else you may have a more serious problem with the PC.
  21. If your're using XP, check your hardware listed in Device Manager, you should see a pointing device listed, also try reinstalling the drivers for the device itself.
  22. I didn't know that this material was so easily available, as I don't use those file sharing type things, not out of any moral indignation or anything, just don't use them. Indestructible!, I will send you a PM.
  23. Thanks for the reply jlhoots, what is the sound quality like? are we talking decent radio broadcast/mono kinda thing? Tracks 1 Cherokee, Noble 18:58 2 Just Friends, Klenner, Lewis 19:39 3 The Scene Is Clean, Dameron 1:17 4 Big Foot, Parker 27:44 5 Come Rain or Come Shine, Arlen, Mercer 11:57
