If you eBay the items individually, it will be a huge workload. Be prepared to offer them piecemeal over a longer period. And bone up on eBay payment scams.

Will contribute as I always do. Great site!

I agree entirely. Woody's movies are somewhat predictable these days, but I know that when I see one of his films my intelligence and sensibilities won't be insulted. "Charming" is a good word to use when speaking about Woody Allen's films, and not a word I'd use when speaking about the vast majority of films being made these days. Charm may be a relatively lost art. I have the impression that most film makers are more interested in hitting me over the head than charming me. "Match Point" goes way beyond that, though; it's a great film. Hitchcock meets Tolstoy.

Yes, after reading Iverson's update, it sounds like he's itching/looking for someone to take Woody down a peg; he just realized that, in his initial post, he was shooting blanks. Interesting impulse, though. Maybe just envious?

June 6: Jimmie Lunceford, bandleader, 1902 Grant Green, guitar, 1935 (and, apparently, Al Grey and Monty Alexander)

June 5: Al Grey, trombone, 1925 Monty Alexander, piano, 1944

I think Woody's indulging in a certain amount of false modesty. Have you seen the film "Wild Man Blues"? Barbara Kopple's 1998 documentary follows Woody with Eddy Davis's band on a European tour. He's been playing clarinet all his life, is a true fan of that style of jazz, and does not embarrass himself with his playing. It's an interesting film. Wild Man Blues - Amazon

For the last half-century, summer has traditionally been jazz festival season. But when New York's centerpiece event, the JVC Jazz Festival, suddenly tanked last year, it left the avant-garde-oriented Vision Festival to hold the fort all by itself. But if 2009 was the year of the Jazz Recession, 2010 marks the start of the Jazz Recovery: Not only is there a replacement for the venerable JVC, but the annual Vision Fest has announced its most ambitious program to date. And, there's a whole new event in town as well. Jazz in June is back. More here: WSJ
