great news scott. it's amazing how honest most people are when give the chance.

actually, i read entertainment weekly. their move and popular music reviews can be good. you'd be surprised at the activity a review in entertainment weekly might generate. with an initial run of 2500 already sold, i wouldn't be surprised that a very positive review could'nt double those numbers.

i just got an email from someone with contacts at rhino. there are no more copies to be had, but rhino had no idea that "entertainment weekly" was running an "A" review in this week's issue. the contact at rhino said they may have to look into pressing some more.

thanks for the link, but it is sold out at rhino handmade.

i am looking for this 5 cd rhino handmade release (and am hoping not to pay ebay prices). if anyone knows where i can find a copy either on line or in a brick and mortar store, i would greatly appreciate it.

i think the drummer just died about 2 weeks ago. if you were a teenager in the midwest in the late 70's, at some point you got drunk and played air guitar to "slow ride" off of "foghat live." r.i.p.

i would call her back. that was a long tome ago (i am assuming), and it's possible she doesn't even hang around the old crowd anymore. she is obviously interested in reconnecting with you, so what have you got to lose?

thanks for posting the list. quite interesting. some of it is easy to see, but i am surprised by "the delivery man." it's such a recent record, and while it is a good record, i would be surprised if it topped many "best of costello" lists.

i haven't been in about 4 years, but the last time i was there the friends i was visiting took me to a record store in the building of an old grocery store. it had to be one of the largest stores i've ever visited. i'm sorry, but i can't tell you the name of it.

i remember when i didn't buy all of the thad jones / mel lewis mosaics when they were still in print. that was pretty stupid.

scott, sorry for your bad luck, but should'nt this be titled "ugghhh!" or "doh!!" "ahhhhhhhh!!!" sort of sounds like what i say while eating some good ice cream.

he is definitely a racist, and that alone makes him a fool.

is that barbarella?

if miles is dark funk, that presupposes a light funk, and what exactly would that be?

fianlly, we're getting back to talking about jazz. miles is jazz, isn't he?

guys - this is starting to look alot like the last days of the blue note board, except instead of attacking some big corporate entity, we are starting to attack ourselves. i am more of a lurker than a contributor, but i am on this board everday. i would hate to see this fall apart. the words of rodney king are necessary, "can't we all just get along?" if i was spending my time and my money to run this board, and someone threatened me - guess what - they'd be gone. jim is nice enough to run this thing for all of us, and he is not quick and irrational in his actions. we all love jazz, and that love leads to alot of similar tastes and thoughts. it's what we have in common and our differences that make this place so enjoyable. i would hate to see this board to become so negative that jim decides to throw in the towel. if anyone out there does not think they can get along with the others, i am sure there are other boards you can post on.

AMEN. i could not have said it better myself.

i'm at least funnier than 1 board member.

i seriously thought i was the funniest member of this board.

"tunnel of love" is the most underrated album in bruce's career. the production is a little dated now, but the songs are incrdible. it never gets mentioned in any list of bruce's best.

paypal has a virtual credit card that you can use at mosaic. the limit is $150 per day. go to the bottom of the page - click on shops. once that page opens click on shop anywhere. then put in mosaic's website and click okay. i use it all the time.

ca - eat a large gino's east with pepperoni, mushroom, and spinach for me. it's worth the trip all by itself.

here's one more reason why pie is better than cake. but i suppose the 2 chimps would vote for cake over pie (maybe).

ivey divdy by don byron.

i forgot - boston cream pie is one of my all time favorites. does that count as a cake or a pie?
