And............?

Gena Rowlands thanks you!

If you like Blakey, this is a "must-have"

GREAT price!

I have a cassette of this and Vol. 2 that someone (maybe on this board? I don't remember now) made for me a few years ago. There's so little available material of this band, it's worth grabbing anything you can get your hands on.

Don't delay.......do it today!

I only discovered him in the last couple of years, too. I think he's very interesting and talented - not a Trane clone at all. Much closer to Joe Farrell or even Joe Hen, IMO. I have Tenorist. What should I get next?

I haven't been playing much lately myself. Hopefully this will re-energize me. I've already go "blisters on my fingers". I know he wants to sell it, too. You guys have any thoughts on value? I can't find much online. Seems to range from $400-$650.

I have a Parker PM20 Pro on loan from a friend. VERY nice!

Get this album. You won't be disappointed (except by its relatively short length).

Ha, ha. That takes me back. I'm finishing my first book about something totally different and in it I tell a story about in my teens (in the Bronze Age, or back when Moses played himself in The Ten Commandments) somehow diffusing a tense racial situation at a dance at Canarsie H.S. by getting up and playing my ca. 1968 George Harrison Telecaster---complete with maple neck and bulbous solder work (fortunately on the back). I bought that guitar around 1970 for $110 from old friend Bobby Lenti, and held onto it through the '80s----when a dealer at We Buy Guitars on 48th st. said "I want it" Meaning, of course, 'name your price (within reason)' Being the ever-astute businessman I was and am I let it go for $460, asking $500 and blinking before he could get a sentence out probably. He had to get $800-900 for that guitar, minimum. Oh well, my profit was still more than 3x what I paid. And I've never been attached to guitars...... Well, then, mine must be worth about 10 grand at this point! Go ahead, rub it in, why don't you.....

I know you had to have been working on that for a long, long time, Free!! Well done! Yeah..........GOOD one!

We can all say we knew him "when"!

:party: AAAAdAAAGGGGGiGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGcGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGkGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [have a great one]

What? No PT, Blackfield, SW solo stuff???

Big line at Amoeba today, too. I picked up some Lucinda Williams among other stuff.

Which album cover thread? There are about a hundred of them, aren't there?

That's a good one, too.

Definitely a fun album. I'll "third" the endorsement!

OK.........I'm intrigued.

Great show last night, but it turned out to be only the Baseball Project although they did some tunes by the related bands (including 3 Dream Syndicate songs). How was Watt? Watt was fantastic! He has a great new album out right now called "The Hyphenated-Man" and he and his band performed it in its entirety. Then he did 4 or 5 Minutemen tunes for an encore. If you liked the Minutemen, you will love this tour/album. Great! I got the new album, but haven't listened to it yet. Sounds like a show WELL worth seeing. Looks like he's going to be here in SF on 4/29.

I picked it up a couple of months ago. Agree with this analysis.

Tonight at Slim's: The Baseball Project, Minus 5, and Steve Wynn & the Miracle 3 (basically all the same band but with minor personnel changes). Saw all these groups a couple of weeks ago in Austin - fun show!
