wesbed Posted February 3, 2006 Report Posted February 3, 2006 I would say, however, that you've got to lower your maturity level in order to enjoy what's going down. Otherwise, it would likely be dull. Are you kiddin'? I have to raise my maturity level while present in the chat room. Quote
wesbed Posted February 3, 2006 Report Posted February 3, 2006 Meanwhile...I recently picked up "Easterly Winds" on someone's recommendation (I don't remember who - probably Big Al). It hasn't lit a fire for me, but maybe I just need to give it time. After all, when you've got Lee Morgan and Jackie McLean on board, something's gotta be happening! Easterly Winds is just a damned fine session to me. I recommend it highly. My review is located here: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php...ndpost&p=243949. Quote
Brad Posted February 3, 2006 Report Posted February 3, 2006 If y'all want to pick a few in advance, I'll grab 'em and bring 'em back to work and join in tonight. What say you? How about (if nobody's sick of it) Blue Train, for starters? Anyone want to set a time? I can't make it tonight, but I can likely join in Friday night. Anyone else on EST around here who might want to join in on the fun? I'll try to join in. Since I don't have a maturity level, shouldn't be a problem. What time? Quote

After all, when you've got Lee Morgan and Jackie McLean on board, something's gotta be happening! Jack Wilson, "Something Personal" is better. There's a Conn version, and I've always wanted to play that one on the joint-listening sessions, but no one else seemed to have it. Damn Big Al! Quote
Big Al Posted February 3, 2006 Report Posted February 3, 2006 I guess we'll be listening to a lot of Jack Wilson tonight! 'salright with me!!! Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted February 4, 2006 Report Posted February 4, 2006 (edited) Lot of people floated in and out last night. Participants: Aggie, BFrank, Wes, Jim A., Big Al, Conn,Free For All (later on), SS1 (for a little while) Uncle Skid. Let's see if I can remember the playlist.... Jack Wilson, "Something Personal," Charles Earland, "Intensity," Miles at the Plugged Nickel, disc 2, Jimmy Smith, "The Sermon." Larry Young, "Unity." May have been another one...

Aggie87 Posted February 4, 2006 Report Posted February 4, 2006 You forget that those of us with exquisite taste played Don Cherry's "Mu" too. Quote
ghost of miles Posted February 4, 2006 Report Posted February 4, 2006 I ducked in for a couple of minutes while I was supposed to be working on the bills; then a certain beloved companion heard me chuckling and said, "Hey! Are you on Organissimo?!" Quote
Ron S Posted February 4, 2006 Report Posted February 4, 2006 Paul (Conn) conveniently fails to mention that he stopped in earlier last night when Hans (J.A.W.), Flurin (King Ubu), John (couw), and I were in there, proceeded to make some lame excuse about having to leave and come back later, and then booked. I think he just wanted to wait until the COOL kids showed up. Quote
Uncle Skid Posted February 4, 2006 Report Posted February 4, 2006 Either that, or he had to go on a BEER RUN!! Quote

connoisseur series500 Posted February 4, 2006 Report Posted February 4, 2006 BF, do us all a favor and take a "SCOTCH" run, okay? Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted February 4, 2006 Report Posted February 4, 2006 Anyone planning to hang out this evening? It's snowing over here in Ohio.... Quote
Daniel A Posted February 4, 2006 Report Posted February 4, 2006 It's already Saturday night here in Europe, and I've ben hanging out in a new, specially designed room in the chat area all by myself for a couple of hours now... Quote

Should be cheap - no one cares about this stuff. But worth buying a turntable for. MG Quote
Ron S Posted February 5, 2006 Report Posted February 5, 2006 And if SS1 had a webcam, the rest of you would have seen something like this: Quote
Soulstation1 Posted February 6, 2006 Author Report Posted February 6, 2006 (edited) a question about the live chat "discussions" can this be saved somehow or is it lost after the chat is over? Edited February 6, 2006 by Soulstation1 Quote
Soulstation1 Posted February 7, 2006 Author Report Posted February 7, 2006 can the moderators pull up and read the LC after it's over? Quote
Soulstation1 Posted February 9, 2006 Author Report Posted February 9, 2006 last night freddie roach - mo greens please groove holmes- night on basie's bandstand Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted February 11, 2006 Report Posted February 11, 2006 Kind of a low-key night last night. The usual suspects included Aggie, Conn, SS1, wesbed, White Lightening and myself (sorry if I left someone off). Mobley's "Hi Voltage" was the highlight album of the night, while "Mingus Ah Um" had mixed enthusiasm from the crowd. We closed with Byrd's "New Perspective" which I don't have but have been "encouraged" to get. Meanwhile........anyone (other than Wes) think that Billy Higgins is the 'poor man's Elvin Jones'? Billy Higgins is the rich man's Billy Higgins. MG Quote
Jim Alfredson Posted February 11, 2006 Report Posted February 11, 2006 can the moderators pull up and read the LC after it's over? Nope. Quote
Free For All Posted February 12, 2006 Report Posted February 12, 2006 "Mingus Ah Um" had mixed enthusiasm from the crowd. Sorry I missed the hang- I'm in Texas doing my gig. I wish I'd have been there- I have great enthusiasm for Mingus Ah Um. ......and Wes is the poor man's Aric. Quote
Soulstation1 Posted February 13, 2006 Author Report Posted February 13, 2006 last night DB / PA Mosaic Set Discs 1 & 3 night before Dexter - Go Larry Young - Into Somethin' DP - Wahoo Brother Jack - Last Goodun and Another Goodun'....LOL Quote
