Just got back from seeing the "Birth of the Cool" art show at the Oakland Museum. Lots of jazz-related stuff, of course.
This album cover shot by Richard Avedon was featured.
Anyone use multi-effects boxes?
I'm looking at the Digitech RP90 ($100) and RP250 ($150).
Also, the Zoom G1 ($80) and G2.1U ($170).
Both of the higher end versions have USB connections that let you modify your effects on the PC.
FWIW, I'm leaning towards the RP250.
Well, it's not going out of print soon (AFAIK), and being only a 4-disk set, it's not really that expensive as Mosaics go. So you can still get it for not that much more than the sale price.
Ordered the Teagarden.
It's totally out of my element, but seemed like an interesting set and I could use a change of pace once in a while. Only 4 disks, so not that much of a committment, either.
it was a wonderful tribute concert. no ernie watts though. kenny burrell, ernie andrews, bobby hutcherson and jon faddis made appearances.
Valerie, are we going to get a review?
From the SF Chron gossip columnist on Wednesday:
"... and Tim Sullivan says that rock guitarist Jimmy Page spent five hours checking out blues selections at Amoeba on Monday."
