Out2Lunch

You may be right, but just not my cuppa tea. There is so much music out there that I really like and will continue to check out, just wanted to weigh in with my two cents. I am going through a bad spell healthwise these days and like to check in every once in a while to keep in touch with you good people. Thanks.

Hey it is wonderful to see that you've come over to "Dumb-Down" THIS board as well

Wow what a come-back Marvel is making these days. Rising from the ashes of bankrupcy like a phoenix. I am a former shareholder

I've tried it. I don't get it. I don't like it. To my ears, its not music, its noise. Its like a day at the Big Dig. Maybe it is an acquired taste or maybe I just like more traditional forms of jazz, but you guys can have it!

A German translation. or just an English translation of the English, like in the Hodges? Its in english and its just a blow-up of the printed material on the back of the mini LP sleeve.

Man, that's some coo-coo clock!!

She leaves a legacy of some wonderful films for us to remember her by. When I was a kid in college, I saw her onstage in Chicago in this god-awful musical "COCO". The material stunk but she was on-stage almost constantly and I don't remember every seeing an actor who could totally dominate a stage even under lousy circumstances. Before the second act some machinerey broke down, so they couldn't proceed until they fixed it. She came out and charmed the hell out of the audience for like twenty minutes until they fixed the thing. That twenty minutes was almost better than the whole play. She was absolutely one of the greatest, RIP.

For reasons that I don't remember, I pre-ordered this from Amazon in Germany awhile ago and it came in about two weeks ago, it does have the insert with it.

What's the difference between the Japanese and the domestic? I jumped the gun and ordered from Amazon GB only to find that the box from the domestic is a lot sturdier than the european version but the discs were the same.

Devoting most of the weekend to listening to: The Complete Brunswick, Parllophone & Vocalion Bunny Berigan Sessions Mosaic If you are crazy about vocals, this is the one for you! Connie Boswell, Lee Wiley, Bing Crosby, Billie Holiday, Mildred Bailey and many many more. Nearly every track is a vocal but what glorious music and musicians are included in this set, well worth the wait. Mosaic has done it again!!

Well at least this puts to rest the much discussed quandry as to the whereabouts of Hardbop. I wish him and DEEP the best of luck OVER at AAJ!

Its way up over 200 these days. May have to move soon just to have a place to display and store all these wonderful sets.

Hey how was the action over at Foxwoods?

UPS just dropped mine off on the back porch. Set #0042. I know what I'll be listening to this weekend!!

How about a set involving Jimmy Giuffre's Verve recordings? Maybe a four disc set would do it. The world is ready for more Jimmy Giuffre!

I got a new catalog in the mail on Tuesday from Jazzmessangers. On the cover, they have a picture of the cover to "Basria" above which says "Blue Note offer still available this month. This CD + 96 titles more offered in our first catalog. Price E 5.95, For a 10 CD average order or more the price will be E5.50!!!" They are featuring a promotion of Arbors, Roulette and Argo jazz discs as well.

Yeah but unfortunately a lot worse for the wear!

They're probably headed for Barcelona, where the boxes will be tinted blue and will be available from the Spanish arm of Time/Life Records.

I've been out sick for the past week or so and I have bought a couple of dozen of these from freshsoundrecords.com. I tried to see what they had available on their site, only to find that it was out of commission. Funny, no?

Hey Berigan, what's with all the Stephen King special effects? I get sick for a couple days and come back to find this board is turning into a black mass!! Was it something I said?

I wrote one on Curley Howard, but it never saw print.

Here are a couple more from this series with TOCJ #'s Hank Mobley-"ROLL CALL' TOCJ 4056 Sonny Red-"OUT OF THE BLUE" TOCJ 4032 Jackie McLean-"DESTINATION OUT" TOCJ 1562

I like a version done by Juinor Mance Trio on enja. The album is called "Softly As A Morning Sunrise".

I'm with you! The old page conformed to the style and black and white format of the Mosaic boxes. It had a simple elegance. The new one looks like a K-Mart circular.
