    I did and I do not recall any major sound issues with the Dorham. I would have to go back a second time and hear it again.

    That's kinda my point.

    Thanks Ken... I'm glad I'm not the only one who reads it that way. I know they have to put non-jazz "big names" out there... but there are a lot of people they could have gotten that I think would have drawn a good crowd. Pat Metheny hasn't been there in years. How about Dave Holland, Benny Green, Kurt Elling, Monty Alexander, Joshua Redman, Helen Sung, Maria Schneider, Monty Alexander, Kenny Barron, etc... ?

    https://newportjazz.org/lineup This is one of these moments in life, where I feel really old... since most of these artists I don't know and don't care about. I feel depressed that this is what this great festival has become.... Terrible lineup IMHO. It basically has four or five bands I'd actually pay to see.

    Christopher Hollyday doesn't even ring a bell. I tend to think several of the "young lions" from the 90s have hung around and are successful. Benny Green, Carl Allen, Joshua Redman, and Branford Marsalis all come to mind. Who else are you thinking of who was hyped and then disappeared?

    Does anyone know if Laurie Pepper is done putting out "Unreleased Art" volumes? I have all of them and they are fantastic. I know she's been putting out the chapters of the book, but the music is fantastic.

    Wasn't he married to Betty Carter or am I thinking of someone else?

    At the end of the Apple+ TV show Severance, Season 2, during the credits they played Work Song (even if it was sung by Bobby Darin). They played several other jazz tunes in the show.

    Truly bizarre reeking of desperation. I don't even know what else to say.

    Is it me, or is this release deeply confusing? Is it a digital-only analogy that's going to be released eventually on single CDs? Also, how does this overlap with the Mosaic Select? I've tried reading through the thread and I'm still confused.
  11. tranemonk
    I might pass on this. I've got two Mosaic sets in the listening queue that I haven't even gotten to yet. I'm more tempted to save up for the Don Byas whenever it comes back into stock.

    I'm in on this. Does anyone have any ETA on the cd version, that's not a "Tone-Poet" rip-off price?

    It's also up on Bandcamp, if no one already posted that. https://charlesmingusmusic.bandcamp.com/album/in-argentina-the-buenos-aires-concerts

    It's not new but I constantly come back to and use Firefox. There's just so much customization and control for me. Brave is not new but I'd say that's my second choice. Even though I'm on a Mac I hate Safari. Opera is way too cluttered.

    Jazz legends extend to non-musicians like him... I have three jazz stations programmed into my phone, WRTI, WBGO and KCSM. All mean a ton to me. RIP Mr. Perkins.
