    I've been interested in this re-issue that came out a few years ago. Anyone heard the additional tracks?
  4. It's all taken from a single late night jam that they later cut up, added horns and voice.
  5. Yes - I think that's right.
  6. A good friend of mine is a huge Beatles fan and co-wrote this book about 40 years ago. It's basically a travel photo book of English locations associated with the Beatles.
  7. Never heard of this film before, but caught a few minutes of it on TCM last week and was surprised to see some of these musicians. Not familiar with a lot of them, but a few are pretty obvious. Brubeck gets a few lines and playing a tune. Dave Brubeck - Piano John Dankworth - Alto Sax (as Johnny Dankworth) Charles Mingus - Bass Bert Courtley - Trumpet Keith Christie - Trombone Ray Dempsey - Guitar Allan Ganley - Drums Tubby Hayes - Tenor Sax and Vibes Barry Morgan - Bongos Kenny Napper - Bass Colin Purbrook - Piano John Scott - Alto Sax and Flute (as Johnny Scott)
  8. I just scrolled through his Facebook page and there's no mention of any upcoming release at all. My guess is that this is some sort of reissue (maybe gray market?). My best friend knows him pretty well and I've met him a few times. Nice guy.
  9. Interesting cross-genre solo album from the singer in Paramore
  10. New album by the other half of the Raconteurs
  11. How is that different from this 2007 album?
  12. Noel has put out some pretty decent pop albums over the past several years.
  13. All four Special Edition albums on ECM. Great stuff!
  14. The Deluxe disk of this set '1983 / Live in Toronto' is on fire!

    Interesting. Mostly live stuff.

    I saw a similar lineup (w/Flo & Eddie) in 71 at Pauley Pavillion, UCLA when they recorded "Just Another Band from L.A." After the Hot Rats disappointment, I'd have to see what's in this set before thinking about getting it.
  17. Very cool! The Jazz Loft Project was very interesting and well-researched, too.
  18. I picked up Plugged Nickel while it was still in print. A friend of mine works for Sony and was able to get me a discount from the company store.
  19. RIP Michael McClure, famed Beat poet who helped launch the SF Renaissance, dead at 87
  20. The Gil Evans is the only one I don't have. I was going to order it, but realized I probably didn't originally because of the number of Alt Takes.
