Forgetting for a minute what a nightmare putting a retroactive * in the record book would create... I still don't think you can do it because apparently he just tested positive this season only. You can't do that ...if you could prove evey player on the team was doing roids maybe. in 07 i don't think Lowell, Ellsbury , pedroia, papelbon , Schill, Beckett, were doing roids. and even if you do Roids doesn't mean you will win Championships ....A-Rod, Giambi ..... It wasn't roids anyway. I bet it was weed! "Recently I saw a physician for a personal health issue. He gave me a medication, not a steroid, which he thought was OK to give me," link

I blame Joe Torre.

Do we know what he tested positive for yet? Is it definitely performance enhancing? Manny being Manny, it's probably just weed.

Congratulations on being done with everything soon! I'll be there and am sending an e-mail.

Wasn't the "Blue Break Beats" tagline something along the lines of "you've got to hear Blue Note to dig Def Jam"? I remember that as far back as 1993. Yeah I've seen those, and other mix records of Blue Note tunes marketed for DJs that seemed less legitimate. I wonder if Blue Note will become more active in Hip Hop, with contemporary artists other than Madlib.

So I know there was the Madlib Blue Note mix record. I've just now come across some other random Blue Note hip hop stuff. I was walking in the Mission district of SF past a trendy shoe store, and saw these Adidas shoes. Then a friend sent me this link on if Wu-Tang were with Blue Note. Not sure if this is a new trend or just a coincidence.

Bud Powell is definitely my favorite. I'll have to listen again to remember which is my favorite of his sessions for grunting haha.

Do you know where to find that panel discussion? on that Italian LP? Interesting mix of characters there.

Man you and I are completely on the same page this week. All I've been listening to is B3 records and Maiden. Enjoy!

Can't get it from eating pork. Thank god I can still have carnitas!

Straight from Seattle to Texas? Where's the California love?

When I first read this topic I thought it was a technique to use cornbread to clean vinyl and got really excited, like the recent wood glue use thread that blew my mind.

Thanks Clifford. Yeah, even though he's the leader, I wasn't referring to Bob Reid. I should have specified. Oliver Lake's name was the one that caught my eye for the BAG association.

That's what I thought.

wiktionary surely it isn't pejorative, though.

ah, but if it were... (I thought it was a combination of Thelonious and Pannonica, but that may just have been a silly assumption)

Yeah I'm kind of losing it this Friday

Indeed. And unbelievable service! I already received the cds in the mail this morning. That was completely hassle-free, thanks!

I almost got that one once but passed, damn.

I've always ended them on Saturdays for just that reason. I tried checking out some ending auctions, but had trouble sorting through the over-priced-unsold-buu-it-now items to get a sense of selling prices, except I saw one Billy Harper live CD end for $2.99, which scared me. That's funny. I find that as a buyer I miss auctions more often when they end on weekends because I'm out and about.
