About 15 years ago I moved into my first home. Back then this group helped to decide what the first song played would be. I went with Jimmy Smith’s House Party. Since then I got married and have two boys. Now It’s time to choose again. This Friday (12/7/19) we move into our dream home. What will the first track be?

Ordered this from Bezos and initially got a estimated delivery date of a few days (one day longer than the Louis Hayes). A day later I got an update saying April 9, 2019 - May 14, 2019. Today it's: March 12, 2019 - March 13, 2019

I found everything in this box in Amazon Music except - The Third Decade. I still like having the physical product though. I made a playlist on Amazon Music - AEC Box

This thread is still alive and so am I.

Thanks everyone. Can't believe I've been hanging out here since 2003!

Herbie Hancock - Complete Columbia on Amazon for $87.49 3 left! Herbie - Complete Columbia I bought this 3 days ago for $117 and thought I was getting a great deal. Both my purchase and this offering are through a 3rd party but they are fulfilled by Amazon.

Curtis Amy - Select. Great set. Played all the way through this weekend.

Title track from Jimmy Smith's The Sermon

I kept up with each release in the series. It was a great way to introduce myself to new music - in several cases artists I might not have sought out. #5 - Paul Chambers sticks out with the white spine. All other #s 1-20 were pastel colors. Then they switched to pictures on the spine from 21 - 38 except for #27 - Cohn, Newman & Green and #32 - Pendulum. Really glad I have them. Lots of enjoyment over the years. Few regrets. Maybe the Johnny Mercer. I think I posted something here where I compared that set to the candy, Circus Peanuts - those little orange goodies that after two, you've had enough - a little goes a long way. I would love love to see the series make it to 40 - for no other reason to even out how they fit on my shelves.

Thanks. 43 laps around the sun.

Bump. For a laugh...and a cry...

I saw the inkjet on wood idea here

I thought I would share a couple of Jazz related art projects. For this I cut out 2" square cover art using a color laser printer and adhered the images to pre-cut letters using mod podge. I used a thin layer of mod podge to seal the images. Step 1) Take inkjet labels and peel off all of the labels leaving only the slick paper Step 2) Print an image on the slick side of the label paper (remember to flip the image if it has text) Step 3) Carefully press the image printed on the slick paper to the wood - it will slide so be careful Tips: Pine or some other wood with a more open grain will likely work best. I used red oak which is hard with a tighter grain so it didn't accept as much of the ink as a softer wood might have. If your image has areas of white (like the rightmost image on my project) it will remain the color of the wood as white doesn't actually print with ink.
