Scrolling down the page, I think that the link to the other Chicago Tribune story ("Maniacs coming together to critique the Beatles reissues") contains far more interesting nuggets of info re: various songs. http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainmen...obref=obnetwork

Popped open the freezer door this a.m. and had one of these for breakfast. Damn that was good!

Snapped this pic in Berlin a few weeks ago. Nice lawn ornament.

Thanks for the heads-up. Gives me a full 3 months to scheme away and hatch the perfect plan to dodge the school Winter Choral concert on Dec. 10.

I placed a pre-order for the mono set w/HMV Japan back in June figuring that they'd have a higher level of immunity against potential supply chain disruptions/malfunctions. The boxes are being assembled over there.

Just some goofing around with the printer. Too flimsy for a coaster...it's for a shirt. Just tossed it down there for the pic.

Yum!

14 ordered...14 received.

Snapped this one in Switzerland in March. I'm not so sure it's as well-marked as it ought to be --- why not add a warning siren, some strobe lights and a Rottweiller on a short leash?

Hey, some of those sonic 'masterpieces' command big bucks these days!!! http://cgi.ebay.com/CLIFFORD-JORDAN-CLIFF-...id=p3286.c0.m14

That still doesn't make sense to me. I thought the Parlan box set had "sold out" last December, that it was not a case of the license expired. Obviously, the license must not have expired if they put these sets up for sale last week. But if, as you suggest, it's easy for it to pick up the numbering where it left off when the set originally went OOP, then that suggests that Mosaic fell more than 1,000 copies short of a sell-out. If that's true, why was it listed as sold out last December? Or is it just a case of they had these spare booklets with numbers assigned, but not enough discs to fill them? In other words, they sold box #4,999 and box #5,000 a long time ago, but the booklet for my #3,465 was sitting around as an orphan without discs...(and if my last scenario is true, it still raises a question in my mind about the accuracy of the inventory control software and procedures) Geez! Do you need a government commission to look into this? Believe me, they never sold close to 5000 copies of a Parlan set. Um, Chuck.....why are you trying to bigfoot the guy when he has a legit question? Yeah, so why was it listed as sold out? ...and if they didn't sell 5,000 sets ...then how many?? 'Believe me,' you say. I do.....but in that Reagan 'trust but verify' sense. Tell us everything you know -- not only about the sales figures for this set....but also if the rumor is true that McDonald's milkshakes really do contain some form of digestible plastic? pleeazzze!

You talking about the Lee Morgan set here and made a wee error... 'cause I thought the Mobley was still available for $96?

Select Wallington, Dorham, Blakey, Mingus, Tristano tracks.....plus ??

Heron that just flew over and landed on our next-door neighbor's roof.

I'll have a corner slice with a candle, please!!!

I'll take it!

To me, it's the weakest set McLean did in his entire run at Blue Note. Shockingly conservative and not too inspired to my ears. But almost all things Blue Note seem to eventually come back around. Hey, you could be right. Then again, Butch Warren is da bomb on the title track, which is all I care about.

Kevin, ..speaking of seeing the light of day..... any reason you can think of why 'Tippin' The Scales' hasn't bounced back into print?

National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden.......2 hrs ago. Looking down Constitution Avenue 'Strange Bodies' at The Hirshhorn Museum Embassy of Canada.... Pennsylvania Avenue Wales is showcased at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival on the National Mall

....bringing DeAnna Pappas ('The Bachelorette') back from a USO show at a Special Ops base on the Peruvian/Columbian border?

Why not look for "The Lost Sessions" instead? So this then is the only surviving track from the 1965 session with Tyner, Hubbard & Higgins. Have you ever heard what happened to the rest of the session tapes? A fire? ...erased? ....labeled 'Lost' because they're weak? other?

Just connected for the first time in 8 months. huh.

Collectors bore me. Btw, I need OBIs for 'The Cat Walk' 'The Connection' and 'Adam's Apple' ....anyone got a spare?
