Correct, unless the FCC gave a special exemption. WBAI's position on the dial is unusual - nonprofit stations are usually positioned below 92 FM; those stations also tend to be underpowered and in a crowded position on the dial. 99.5 FM could be very valuable; I think they need to bring in some clever lawyers to do some haggling.

I see this was already mentioned in the Randy Weston thread.

Follow the Amazon link I posted. There's a second Jarrett album that will also be released on November 25, per Amazon:

No, I think it refers to the flaming.

Have these been previously available? Release dates for all October 22. A Child Is Born Season's Greetings Hush-A-Bye Live For Peace Lullaby of Birdland Misty Smoke Gets In Your Eyes Take The 'A' Train The Days of Wine and Roses Nature Beauty Piano Night Portrait ~ Oboe Concerto Sophisticated Lady

Release date November 25. Amazon Keith Jarrett: electric guitars, Fender bass, drums, tablas, percussion, recorder and piano. Recorded at his home studio in 1986, No End illuminates hitherto undocumented aspects of Keith Jarretts music. He is heard here on electric guitars, electric bass, drums and percussion, overdubbing tribal dances of his own devising: Somehow something happened during these days in the 80s that wont ever be repeated,he writes in his liner notes. There was really, to my knowledge, no forethought or composition in the typical sense going on; just a feeling or a rhythmic idea or a bass line concept or melody. None of this was written down. On the instrumentation: Drums were always with me in some way, Jarrett reflects. I have always been drawn to instruments that you touch directly, without a mechanism in between. Therefore, I cannot say that I have ever loved the piano as much as the drums or guitar. With, primarily, these instruments (piano this time has only a cameo role) Jarrett has shaped one of his most unusual albums.

Release date November 19. Amazon

Thanks for posting that. I wasn't aware of the Clarence Williams track.

May you spend your birthday merri-Lee!

Is that the last release in this year's subscription?

Amazon, but no additional info as of yet.

I just started listening to the 1978 concert. Fun stuff; the band has a looseness more akin to pre-1974 Dead.

Then, on Saturday, October 12 at 3:30 p.m. the Library and BackCountry Jazz will present Billie Holiday: a Celebration, a concert with an all-star ensemble performing the music of Billie Holiday. Just as Billie's music was created in company with jazz icons such as Lester Young, Teddy Wilson, Count Basie and Artie Shaw, the concert will feature some of today's most celebrated jazz musicians: trumpeter Terell Stafford, pianist Donald Vega, bassist Peter Washington, drummer Victor Lewis, guitarist Tony Lombardozzi,vocalists Malou Beauvoir and Carla Cook under the direction of tenor saxophone master Bennie Wallace.

Why don't you do it?

Just noticed this on Amazon. Release date November 19. Amazon.

I always wondered why UK releases didn't show timings. Interesting.

Happy birthday - hope it's a greeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzy one!

The photo is OK, but the typeface is definitely not Reid Miles (who didn't do the cover). It's the font, and the placement of the text on the cover, that makes it un-Blue Note.

If the title has ever had a CD release, then the masters are already in digital format...I wouldn't think there's much additional cost in converting AIFF format to mp3, FLAC, etc.

Anthony Braxton Quartet (Coventry) 1985, $3.96 Anthony Braxton Quartet (Birmingham) 1985, $2.97 Anthony Braxton 20 Standards (Quartet) 2003, $9.49

Where? Nowhere now, but that would solve their cash crunch, as well as the need to find a pressing plant. If they're worried about the sound quality of mp3s, they could also offer in FLAC and such. But they could literally have this up and running in a week.

Maybe they can do some Bird's Eyes boxes.
