  1. In Buckaroo Bonzai
  2. Chrome: fast, easy, efficient
  3. Those things would be great. BTW, "complete discography" should definitely include OOP albums, too.
  4. Still waiting for the Max Roach album.
  5. I took a jazz history course with Chuck Israels at Brooklyn College in 1974, and Chuck went on about how brilliant a soloist Thad was. He was talking in terms of melodic/thematic improvisers, who he felt were superior to artists who simply blew on changes, and I think the context was Monk recordings, where he said Thad and Newk were perfect for Monk's music, and he denigrated Charlie Rouse by comparison, IIRC. One of my favorite Mosaic boxes, actually.
  6. The Billionaire Who Loved Bluegrass
  7. Sam Rivers Complete BN (not the Select) - disk #2
  8. You're stuttering. ha ha ha That's what I usually look at. I've noticed that prices have come down quite a bit over the last few years, though. Exceptions being the Maynard and Thad/Mel sets, which still seem to command premium $$.
  9. Is that THE Steven Wilson? Not exactly an unusual name, you know.
  10. Wow, that's a great deal for a LOT of great music! Thanks for the heads-up! 6 hours of music - THAT'S pretty intense! That's about $1/hour (worth it!)
  11. £5??!!? Damn! I only got $5!
  12. I wouldn't expect anything less.
  13. This morning on NPR's Weekend Edition - Saturday
  14. In the annals of badly tuned pianos that one is right up there with Don Schlitten's Prestige piano of circa 1968 ! Or Stanley Cowell's piano on Charles Tolliver's Slug's set.
  15. same here. the only problem is limitations the stations might have with streaming. there are always blackouts while the squeezebox is rebuffering. i still don't know if that's a problem on the station's side or on the squeezebox's. Or your network. Right........I haven't had any buffering problems, myself.
  16. THAT is a great price! You can get that AND the complete Prisoner for $58.48. If you don't have these - get them NOW!
  17. Too bad it's OOP now. I wouldn't mind having it myself. I did see that there's going to be a "Complete 5 Spot" set coming out soon (although it might be an import)
  18. It's definitely working much better than at first. They should have done a better job of testing before the release, though. Anyway, I'm fine with the current setup. ALL websites go through interface revisions periodically. Look at the grief that Facebook members throw out every time they make a change/revision. Pricing isn't nearly as good as it used to be, but it's still about 20-30% cheaper than Amazon or iTunes on most catalog albums.
  19. Nice! No doubt about it, we have the BEST fog here in SF.
  20. Thanks, King!
  21. That's exactly what I was referring to.
  22. Definitely- AggIe Can wrecK an otherWise Awesome birthDay. yeah.......and maybe Free, too.
