Memory Lane Express. I see that back in January of 2002 I was suggesting that Mosaic do Roy Eldridge and Illinois Jacquet sets drawn from their Verve recordings. One out of two ain't bad... can only add my love and appreciation for this board to what's already been said. Still by far the best place on the Internet to discuss jazz afaic, thanks to Jim's stewardship and the great mix of members. Some significant friendships made and much knowledge acquired here. Hell yeah to another 20 years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgcim Posted April 5, 2023 Report Share Posted April 5, 2023 It was nothing, really.😁 Although keeping TTK and Jim in line was quite a chore sometimes,,,😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Bresnahan Posted April 8, 2023 Report Share Posted April 8, 2023 www.organissimo.org has been "under maintenance" for a few weeks now. Unless you have this forum bookmarked, you won't find it and unless Jim and the band decide to resurrect their website, it's unlikely that we'll be seeing too many new members here... not like we get a lot now.

Yeah, I have that concern too. Heck, how many users — to say nothing of lurkers — don’t even know the board is back? Yes, a Google search on “Organissimo forum” does get you here — but if anyone just searches on “Organissmo” only, it looks like we’ve gone the way of the dodo.

Eric Posted April 8, 2023 Report Share Posted April 8, 2023 (edited) Yes, it would be helpful to have the primary landing page working. Having said that, I was on the other night and there were maybe 5-6 registered users and maybe 25-30 lurkers. So … somehow people are finding the place.

Kevin Bresnahan Posted April 8, 2023 Report Share Posted April 8, 2023 Maybe Jim should have the forum at the main page? I mean that only if they are not going to use it themselves for the band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted April 13, 2023 Report Share Posted April 13, 2023 Sometimes I can't get to it at all. Then I get worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gheorghe Posted April 14, 2023 Report Share Posted April 14, 2023 20 years ! Wow, congratulations. I´m very very glad to be here, great guys from all over the world. My English is not the best, I learned it mostly from reading liner notes when I was a boy, and from musician´s talk when it´s up to play, so sometimes it´s a bit harder for me, but really a challenge. So interesting, and like a family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
