I never expect everybody to like everything (and am never disappointed about that!). Like I said, honest opinions are what counts, and if you have thoguhtful reasons for why you don't like something, that's all good. So thank you for participating! Did your DL have thumbnails on two cuts? I tried everything to get rid of them and couldn't. I was just happy that the player itself didn't get hung on them.

I'd rather read a book.😎

Well, you might be sorry you reminded me, man.  Track 1 - Wha!?  Sorry man, not feeling this one at all.  I mean, it's not insulting, I just... meh.  Doesn't feel as funky as it thinks it is. Track 2 - I'm lost.  Hey Jude just started, but why?  Man, I respect the hell out of your ears, but we're 0-for-2 here. I feel like I'm listening to The Shaggs.  I made it through, but no, thank you. Track 3 - Sounds like Getz to me.  Maybe that awful record Herb Alpert produced?  Had it at the college radio station -- I was not a fan.  Definitely sounds like that (not a strong outing here from Stan).  It's musical, but not my bag. Track 4 - I REALLY don't want to like this, but at the 2 minute mark, the horns came in and won me over.  I won't say I LIKE it, but it's pretty good.  I like the execution if not the style, how's that? Track 5 - No.  I don't care for the voice, nor the execution.  I'd take Hal the drum machine and drop it off the top of the nearest building.  Hard pass.  Three minutes in and a very real chance I'm not going to make it out of this song.  Piano solo interested me enough to stay, but pity it's buried in horrid effects and that attrocious drum machine.  Vocals are back, I'm done. Track 6 - The sound of this recording rubs (those drums are very compressed).  But this feels like it's REAL.  Didn't have that from the last one, at all.  Okay, that's Gilmore, so this explains much.  I know I have this, but clearly have not played it enough.  Gilmore is like Waldron for me, I'd listen to either set his glass on a piano, because it would be musical.  You were in the running for one of my least favorite BFTs, Jim (which shocks me!), but this fixes a whole lot.  I can think of some world leaders who should have been exposed to this earier in life.  (Yeah, I said it.) Track 7 - Oof.  The geek who created that keyboard sound, if there is any justice, [self-deleted].  Not a great Sonny Rollins outing.  So, that must be Clifton.  I mean, the worst Sonny is still worth it to hear him, but this clearly somewhat later, when the time slipped a bit.  I think this is after I saw him (mid-90s).  I wish I'd gotten to see the late 70's (Don't Ask) band. Keys, sadly, sound exactly like a Snoopy compilation I have that has a track by Kenny G, and it's EXACTLY this horrid synth sound.  Ugh.   Track 8 - Not sure why, but something about the creepy 60's-ness of this has me kind of liking it.  I'd never put it on, but it's got me at the moment.   Track 9 - James gets me.   Latter half of the test was a lot more to my liking.  Felser, pressure is on for December!    248 area code.  I always try to link the photo to the number of the test in some way.  A little game to amuse myself. Definitely worth knowing, for me.  It DL'd fine on my end.  Did you get an error?  If so, I'd like to know that (in general and for all).  If there are glitches on the site, I like to fix them, but I only learn of them when a user encounters them.  If anything is broken, if you and send me a screen shot of any error message and the browser you're using (including version, if possible).  This concludes this tech support moment.

I don't recall anyone here mentioning that "Meet You At The Jazz Corner Of The World" is on this Mosaic Box : The Complete Blue Note Recordings of Art Blakey's 1060 Jazz Messengers
