I had no idea they were still making them? Why would they?

From the Mercury News: "At one point in the game, I turned to (assistant) Dick Tidrow and I said, 'This is a street fight, and we win those,'" general manager Brian Sabean said.

And two teams with interesting narratives and characters, whom few would have predicted to be meeting in such a fashion this October. Best comment of the night. Don't know that much about the Rangers, but nearly every Giants' player has a great story behind him. Two months ago if anyone had said that Cody Ross would be the Giants' MVP of the NLCS, they would have been sent to an asylum.

Paul, albums included are: It's Time Right Now Action Jacknife (originally a 2LP set with 2 sessions) Consequences

Thanks for the heads-up.

Great, David! I look forward to the albums and the tour. You'll make it to the Bay Area, right?

I got that price reduction email, too. They're even offering to refund the difference to those who have already bought it. Never seen anything like that before. They must have gotten some MAJOR blow-back of some sort - not to mention probably not selling well.

He was a speaker (and possibly in residence, but I don't remember exactly) at a "History of Jazz" class I took in college in the 70s. Some of my first exposure to jazz and very influential. One of our assignments was to listen to and critique "Afternoon of a Georgia Faun" - eye opening to say the least. RIP, Marion.

You are a true "bone head", Free!

She spoke "jive"

Thanks for the heads-up. I haven't listened to the Mosaic as much as I should - this is a good excuse to pull it out.

I wish. Enjoy the show, Peter (I'm sure you will).

Saw this in Walgreens - basically the classic blue & white BN label. Check it out the next time you go to Walgreens of DuaneReade. (couldn't find a bigger image unfortunately) YUM!

Two actually..... This one, Warriors and one recorded for a French label Plus Loin that will released in Europe in November and in the US in March or April. If you are a fan of the all out intensity this group can create, then perhaps the Plus Loin date has a little more of that (it's called Cast the First Stone, a Billy Harper tune). I might be able to get copies of this one early and offer it to you guys at a discounted price if you want. Two? MORE excellent. I've seen you guys out here twice - Healdsburg and Yoshi's. Both great.

An album! Excellent!

Nice article. Short, but informative.

I recently unloaded 2/3 of my vinyl collection (800 LPs) - just no room and I don't play them anymore. One of these days I'll have to part with the last 1/3, too. I had a buyer from Amoeba stop by and he picked them up. It would be WAY too time consuming to try and sell them here or anywhere else. I feel that I got a fair price from them, too, which I took in credit as opposed to cash (apparently very unusual for an acquisition of this size). It's going to be nice to have a long-term credit there.

Where do they come from? They can't be Sony releases.

FWIW, the Ronnie Scott set is available on eMusic.

I'm still confused.

I can't quite figure out why they've repackaged this into 2, 2-disk sets. Did the 4 CD box not sell? The 4-CD set was a limited edition from Hip-O Select. These 2-disc sets are apparently repackaged by Universal for the masses, without the fancy hard-back book. Ohhhhhhhhhh, OK. I didn't realize it was a limited edition. Glad I got it. It's a wonderful set.

Hey, Reynolds, see ep1str0phy's coverage of the show in the Henry Threadgill thread. Very complete.
