Son-of-a-Weizen

EDIT: Ain't gonna happen. History...........dust...............archives.

I had my 4 Advent Large(s) (purchased in '79) re-foamed in '98 or so. All those years of Black Flag, Blue Oyster Cult, Suicidal Tendencies and the Angry Samoans put a major hurt on them. Kevin's $45 a pop sounds about right.

Oh Conn, you incorrigible gossip!!!! (what time????) Happy , Erik!

If that's the place I'm thinking of (you go down a flight of steps?) they usually carry some Jasmine cds....... so grab some of those Tubby Hayes ones!! ...and how about that place called 'Bird's Nest Music', jbs-tom? ....lot's of jazz vinyl there. Still open?

Same here....

I'd like to see them release Blue Mitchell's 'Bring It Home to Me' as a Conn. That's one nice record....but only available here as a Liberty era pressing or as a part of the Mosaic. I'd like to know why the folks at Toshiba never did anything with it? Any idea, Kevin? Edit: Someone's bound to 'catch me' on the vinyl bit. Forgot to mention the mono original (4228). I've got the Liberty stereo.

No, never did.......... ..............................still waiting for Wulfman to save the day!!! Calling Harold!!!!

JazzMusic, Did a quick walkthrough and have a few suggestions. Add in something about your shipping rates & methods to the Service and/or Policies sections located upper right (personally, I'd give folks a media mail or First Class option). I'd also offer folks the opportunity to go back into their order and add an additional item once they've submitted it (within a reasonable period of time, that is). A hundred times over I've clicked 'Submit Order' ---- and then, 3 hours later, smacked myself in the head for forgetting CD 'X'. I tend to haunt those sites that allow me to zip right back into the order and add in the extra item or two............................................................or eight.

I dunno? ....it was on an altbier. Must be some sort of düsseldorf altbier drinker fetish?

Yes, a member of 'Kelly' Johnson's design team and the Reconnaissance System Officer (RSO) on a Jan. '68 run. Not a pilot. Can you imagine the thrill? http://www.wvi.com/~sr71webmaster/Supp_BBook.htm

I really don't maintain a list because 90% of it is already here. When I'm feelin' the 'itch' I just run an 180 day search of "Re-issues' and scan the 'News from Hiroshi Tanno' threads for my next victims.

Um, no such luck for you, amigo. You'll only be permitted to touch my ceramic caps.

You'll have to buy me a beer at the Gösser Bierklinik before I let you touch it.

I wish he'd come back so that I can post a pic of my new SR-71 shirt (black, of course) with my uncle's name (he flew one) hand-embroidered on 'er. I know* RC would like that. * unless of course he was always faking interest in the SR-71? Naa, couldn't be.

I'm pretty happy with the 5-lp "The Great Prestige Recordings" box that Analogue Productions released in the late 90's, but I'm a sucker for a new cd box, particularly one containing a bonus disc. Re: Hoffman -- I've been quite pleased with the sound of the Miles XRCDs and hadn't thought about investing in the DCC versions -- until, that is, a few days ago when I heard his Evans 'Interplay' re-mastering. Woah!! I might need to saddle up and start tracking down some of those Miles (and Evans) ones.

Basically a low key little residential area (w/well maintained 00's-20's townhouses) that's bordered by the State Dept., GWU (George Washington U), Georgetown and the Kennedy Center. Not a bad place to walk around....quick access to Georgetown ....10 blocks to the White House and so. It's not an area that's packed with accomodations and I can't tell you anything about the handful of hotels and/or guest quarters that are located there....but I'd recommend it.

You should stock up on some. I mean, anything to replace those fifths of 70's 'vintage' Black Velvet you keep trying to pawn off on the guests.

Good God!! You were sent out to Telegraph Road?? Who did you piss off to get sent out there?? Solzenhitsyn said he'd rather get dropped back into a labor camp in the permafrost belt that go out there!! Catesta would wander out there and they'd find his bleached bones lying in the woods 6 months later!! Poor lad....no food...no water....bears got him. * * I drop the kids at piano lessons once a week a mile up from that House-o-chow.

What a pansy. Doesn't he know that women don't like to date wusses?

Truthfully, if I was coming to DC for the first time, rather than hitting VA or MD, I'd do that as well. A nice place to stay is the Henley Park Hotel over on Mass and 9th, NW. They've got a nice little jazz lounge and have someone in there on weekends. Restaurant is also quite good. The weekend rates for a small room are okay too. The other place is the Hotel George up on Capitol Hill....excellent boutique hotel, outstanding restauarnt 'Bistro Bis'...had dinner there on Wed. night. It'll set ya back a few bucks, but.....

......view from my upper porch down the street from 'super depressing' crystal city.

...bars & stuff looking toward Crystal city..

....view toward D.C.

Super-depressing?? I can't let you get away with that...you, you, you Northern VA hater, you! Well, I guess he hasn't rolled through in awhile, 'cause, miraculously, all the 'high-rises' have shrunk down to 14 stories. I just went out for a sandwich and shot these quick pics standing in the main drag (Rt.1) that runs through it. Hey, is it paradise? Well, I'd rather recommend the Four Seasons in Georgetown, or the Hay Adams down by the White House for $400+ a night --- but if someone's looking for a good jump off point that's 10 minutes away, has a good place to catch a pint at night (Mackey's Public House), or some decent food after wandering the Smithsonian all day (McCormicK & Schmicks, Jaleo, Morton's, Ted Turners, Legal Seafood, Ruth's Chris, or any of the dozen places on 23rd street) this isn't a bad place to hang. Geez, if Catesta was in town tonite, he could go see the Average White Band playing at the Birchmere down the street. Bertrand, Did you go see John Hicks when he was at Twins in Feb?
