best tuned studio piano ever found on this recording: ubu B-)

Oh yes!

This one's fantastic! might not be the ovious starting point if you come to Waits via jazz, but it's a great great album!

I don't have this one, from other 3-4 Bergman CDs I've heard, I've found his playing to be consistently boring. Yup - I never heard him, so I can't really say ANYthing about him. Other opinions? Got the new Björk disc, sounds interesting. Will listen over the weekend. ubu I had this & gave it away to a friend. Besides the fact that I don't much like Bergman's playing, the sound quality is pretty drab. Thanks, I'll definitely let that one pass! David, I'll tell you how I'll like the Björk - it got mixed reviews in all the swiss and german daily & weekly papers I read (four or five), but the things they did criticise made me want to get the disc all the more!

what 10$ haircut? I didn't know the US are part of the third world, haircut-prize-wise! No way a barber would even touch your hair for 10 bucks! Absolute minimum, but far less than average, would be around 35$ here! No tips needed, at those prizes, of course...

This one worth picking up (cheap used copy)? thanks, ubu

Finally made it through some more discs of the Chambers/Kelly: "Kelly Great!" is just that! WOW! Shorter is terrific! What a great recording debut this is, wow! Morgan is good, as well, as are all the others, and Philly Joe was so hip! The "Fantastic Frank Strozier" sessions are a delight, as well. Booker Little rates high among my favourite trumpet players, and he delivers some good and great solos on these two dates. Strozier himself is a very good alto player, as well, with a very nice sound of his own. Never heard this one before (always kept my fingers away from the single reissue waiting until I have this box), and it really is great! ubu

Listening to discs 3 & 4 of the Kelly/Chambers Mosaic - wonderful WONDERFUL music! Little smokes! Me like the acidic sound of Frank Strozier a lot (have his other Veejay on a Koch reissue, as well as the 2002 Fantasy twofer, and a disc with Roy Haynes...). Morgan and particularly Shorter make impressive contributions to "Kelly Great" which starts of disc 3. Shorter is really onto something else, on this his debut recording! Marvellous recording, as well! Had a listen to some funny and great eastern European music this morning, as well, among the discs an Amiga album by Joe Sachse and Hannes Zerbe, one by the Polish "edition" of the Jazz Crusaders, the "Jazz Carriers", and the Jazz Jamboree 1961 album (with tunes by Ianci Körössy, Bernt Rosengren, Ronnie Ross, and Jimmy Gourley, sidemen including Krzystof Komeda). THanks to our man in the cold... ubu

Swiss history student, ardent admirer of dada, surrealism, Duchamp etc, thus logically of Alfred Jarry, as well, there comes my handle... then a self-declared jazz addict (ask my girlfriend, she'd say my declaration is spot-on - and no, she doesn't like it...) now back to some serious funky stuff B-) you forgot to mention '& generous to a tee' just spreadin' the goodies, that's all - sort of a philosophy of life... ubu

Welcome, Peter! Got to share the goodies, no?

I decided against ordering - they want too much for shipping. Ordering three discs it would be possible I had to pay as much as 20$ for customs, I'm afraid... ubu

Thanks. "O'Neal's Porch" has been recommended by many around here, but I remembered D.D. not liking it too much, and I am afraid I know his tastes a bit by now and might end up just like him with this disc...

Nate, it's been quite some time since I hear the disc.... Any other opinions on the Parkers? Well, I do a search first. ubu

Nope, sorry! No connection at all, except for the name B-)

Thanks, John! Just looked up AMG, and Test and Transonic sound very good! Not so sure about the Parkers. I'm not a big fan of his. How is "Mayor of Punkville"? If AMG is to be believed on that, it might be the Parker for me to go for among the AUMs. ubu

Don't tell that to B3-er! will i be banned? hopefully not right now while catching some sleep! however, I can't help, I always have to smile when I see Rachel's avatar.

king ubu now catches some sleep (it's 3 a.m. here now...), after downloading (and partially listening and enjoying) tons of those Prince files... They even added another one, which is barely two weeks old! I wonder how long this site will be working... Rachel: you have the all-time cutest avatar! ubu

Anything on this list that's a must have? http://www.allegro-music.com/label_search.asp?label=AUM Nate, I think the fact taht the Tatum/Webster works out fine is a small miracle, as both have, to say the least, "baroque" styles. However, their combination works perfectly well! Maybe my favourite date on the Group Masterpieces box! couw, glad you like DLAD! ubu

Looks like there's the complete list now, but without any of the short texts they'll usually have - they'll add them later, I suppose: Jazzfest Berlin - Programme ubu

That Art Tatum group masterpieces recording with Ben Webster is GREAT! A fantastic recording, and most highly recommended for the rat pack! ubu
