I don't remember if this was mentioned here before, but you can get Joe Farrell's CTI album Outback (CTI Records 40th Anniversary Edition - Original recording remastered) w/Elvin Jones, Chick Corea, Buster Williams, and Airto for $1.94.

I need to get the Mosaic one of these days, too.

Amazon has it available for pre-order at around $30. That was the previous group, actually, but a favorite of mine, too. Lester Bowie!

Looks like a MUST-have to me. I love those albums!

A friend just forwarded this to me. Don't know anything about them, but I like the tune. It's very PT-esque.

Calgary 25 And the winner IS ...

I hear I hear strains of Focus in there, too. Must be a Scandinavian thing. Thanks for the heads-up!

PayPal'd!

I really like this brand. Great sound. thinksound

Nice piece on the BN website Pete La Roca Sims 1938-2012

Saw him 30 years ago leading a band at the late Village club "Lush Life" with: Kenny Barron, Carter Jefferson, Kenny Rogers, Terumasu Hino, Alex Lane Wish I could say I remembered much about it, though.

That IS a great deal! I think I paid $70-80, which seemed cheap at the time.

As Valerie said, I think it's "only" emphysema. When the SFJazz Center opens in January, one night of the opening week will be Spotlight: Bobby Hutcherson Birthday Celebration I have tickets already. Should be an amazing night.

Well, yes..........there's THAT!

Got tix at half price to see Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings at the Davies Symphony Hall on the 24th. I've seen them once before - should be a great show.

Another thumbs up for the "About Time" album. The best solo album from him in a long time. I've found many of this solo albums sort of "routine," unfortunately, but he's still a major talent, for sure. His recent work with Clapton at both the Crossroads Festival and the joint tour/album they did was also a high point for both of them in recent years.

Those are a couple of NICE-looking axes, Lon!

I'm back and now INTIMATELY acquainted with this piece. FWIW, Bill is a great guy - smart, talented, and funny. A very enjoyable weekend to say the least. Saturday night was an Electric Hot Tuna concert, in which he was included, and he did the best version I've ever heard of "The TImes They Are A-Changin' " A class act, for sure.

cigarettes suck.

I-did-not-know-that.

I hope everyone that wanted it, got it.

Never made it to Tamarindo. Bummed. But the Series went 3 1/2 hours and by the time I got there it would have been nearly over.

Definitely great technology, but typical of Fox, WAY over-used.

Thanks for the support, guys! Kirchen is doing a couple of dates here in the Bay Area this weekend, but unfortunately I can't make it. Will report back afterwards "if" I learn anything. Don't think I'll be able to pull off that Hot Rod Lincoln medley, though.
