  1. I own this one:
  2. Is this new news in the US? Was in the newspapers last week, or even the week before, over here. Now let's start working on Allen's biography, everybody!
  3. Sad news! I'll play the Pacific and Atlantic albums, too. Very nice music! (on a side-note: Hi Garth! Nice to see you again here, but don't just show up with sad news, willya!)
  4. Tapas are fast food, too, don't forget that! I have eaten maybe 10 times at a Mc in my life so far and don't intend to go there more often than that in years to come...
  5. Yes, and you still miss the lenghty obit worth reading (by David Toop, if memory serves me right)
  6. Happy birthday!

    nepotism? It's been 6 hours and no reply. I guess I'll write an email to ask, then! And maybe I add that disc with Dyani to my order...

    I didn't hear back yet - how long did it take them to write you?

    No, but the Wallin looks good to me, and I wanted the Feza and Brötz anyway... won't order more for now, I'm afraid!

    Just ordered three items: - Brötz Nefertiti - Wallin - Mongezi Feza but I didn't see anything about the sale while ordering... I just had to put in the amount of money (54€) myself... I wonder... will they send me a PayPal invitation to pay this minus 25% now? How does that work? I don't like sales where things are not put any clearer. As for the OOP stuff: anyone wants to pass on his copy of the Noah Howard? I would have liked to hear that one! Oh, and THANKS, brownie! I would indeed have missed this sale!

    Not sure if the news has arrived in the english-speaking part of cyber world yet: This is the Willisau recording of the Schweizer-Anderson-Drake trio from August 2004. 45 minutes of it were on Swiss Radio (and I shared those some time ago on dime - take that off of your trade-lists now, willya!). Quite a good set, in my opinion! The CD is called "Willisau & Taktlos" - I am not sure if the trio appeared at Taktlos, but I think not, since the Willisau concert was the first meeting of Schweizer and Anderson, as far as I know. Thus the Taktlos part may be from the Schweizer-Drake duo set a few years back (also on the radio, and pretty great!). It will be out somewhen in 2006, but I don't know yet, when exactly. Intakt has usually got 6 releases per year, and three others (George Lewis - mentioned elsewhere on Big-O -, Trio 3, and Saadet Türköz) are up on their site as upcoming, too, so it could take a while till this will be out. Those photos EKE posted above (they have vanished now, it seems) were shot at this very concert, btw.
  14. Playing disc 1 now! Finally got it! All ten fingers typing, none hiding in tedious or other places...
  15. Well, I really don't know much about cars, but this one looks like what I remember we had, 25-20 years ago or so. It had an open roof (not cabriolet, just the whole roof could be rolled back) - maybe that helps to find out? I cannot get hold of the nickname that car had (something like jumbolino, but not exactly that... it was italian, for sure).
  16. Just making a bit of fun - didn't know you knew Scott, though!
  17. Variety obviously has no idea who exactly Duke Ellington was Will they shoot this in Iraq? It will be a blatant celebration of all the good things Saddam did as US proconsul on Iraqian soil! Can't wait to see it! Seems the fellas don't even know themselves "when and if" Ellington knew about them spies! Great, should be a terrific film! And who got shot in Iraq? Rumsfeld wasn't there so, obviously not him...
  18. What's that, your good friend Tony Scott, or Benito's ahem... or wait, you mean your good friend Benito?
  19. I see this area is restricted... I am not exactly a car, but my conception dates back to 1978, so maybe I am allowed to be here? This was our first family car: You can create one for yourself here: This here was our not so good for family purposes car: Much more fun than those huge oil-addicted US ships, no?
  20. Ayler is so old-fashioned and mainstream... only the public never caught up with that. And I think he was Norah's uncle, no?
  21. Ayler is so old-fashioned and mainstream... only the public never caught up with that.
  22. But then why are there still LPRs (or at least the batch including this disc was still an LPR) in the US? Sucks! First EMI/Blue Note goes the copycrap route (my first wish for new Conns or RVGs would be regular Compact Discs, no matter what's on them...), then Universal goes shit (cover print quality/pixels is not first rate on these, either, to put it mildly), and then what? Maybe we'd be better off (at least in respect of getting nice jazz reissues) if the US annected Europe in one go, maybe after they'll be done with Iran, North Corea and Cuba.
  23. *finally* got a shipping confirmation from French Amazon two or three days ago. I hope to get it before the weekend! I'm sure it sucks. So Miles went to Pangaea and stayed there? Quite a trip, I must say!
  24. Oh, I see... I'm at work and got confused by reading this discussion. Glad to see I have it all, then (except for bonus cuts on the Freshsound reissue - I searched, but couldn't find the thread I thought existed about that reissue).
  25. "Angel Eyes" is the same that is on the Bud Shank/Bill Perkins West Coast Conn, yes? Why would this appear on a Pepper set in the first place? So with that Shank/Perkins and the 3 Blue Notes I miss the rest of session D: 11. What Is This Thing Called Love (D) 5:29 (Cole Porter) 12. A Foggy Day (D) 3:53 (G. Gershwin-I. Gershwin) 13. Diane-A-Flow (D) 4:02 (Art Pepper) 14. Zenobia (D) 5:14 (Art Pepper) D) Art Pepper, alto sax; Bill Perkins, tenor sax; Jimmy Rowles, piano; Ben Tucker, bass; Mel Lewis, drums. Recorded at the Radio Annex Studio in Los Angeles on December 11, 1956 All others originally issued on JUST FRIENDS - BILL PERKINS Pacific Jazz PJM 401 And I assume there's no possibility to find "Just Friends" these days... Didn't the Omega/Freshsound release contain a couple of tracks not included on the Blue Notes or the Select?
