there are some great releases on Nessa. Get the Fred Anderson, the Air disc, the AEC box and Roscoe Mitchell's Snurdy McGurdy and her Dancin' Shoes to start. The AEC I've had for at least five years! Love it! Other than that no Nessa so far, but no money to order right now - all the ones you mention are on my list, though, thanks! ubu

Waddya mean? That was humble yours truly... Don't have the Nessa yet, but I will have to order some of Chuck's stuff sooner or later... Check the sample track from the Elixir disc on the Atavistic site, Gary - you shall like that one, too! ubu

Then how about George Russell? Big

Of course Barry Guy! Don Redman (with Fletcher Henderson and with his own band) also George Gruntz ubu

Moby Dick (=rest of the world) of course. Vorwärts immer, rückwärts nimmer! Ein Heeering so fett wie der Geeering (sorry, no relation, but fun it is...)

Grant Green's "Am I Blue". Ike Quebec's great "Bossa Nova Soul Samba" or whatever the correct title of that one is. Both are different, but then you won't find anything that's just like "Midnight Blue". You might also try Green's "Green Street", another very moody affair. Maybe something by Wes Montgomery, too. ubu

Just one to add: Tadd Dameron - he really has a sound all his own!

Well, Hi! It's me again Downloaded some stuff from the Atavistic website - listened to the Fred Anderson and some of the McPhee samples, so far, and am looking forward to hearing the Brötzles samples and more - some very good stuff available there! The only releases I have are a couple of the UMS (one of the McPhees, "Trinity", and the Hal Russell I just mentioned). Will have to order a lot from their releases, some fine day! Do they go OOP? Fast? Let's hope not! ubu

No photo from mainstation, but here's my favourite store there: ubu B)

But they're nice, no? I'll do good and replace them with smaller ones... but got to have dinner now, first. The whole first page of this thread is now 20MB ! Resized and comments added. Hope the images are ok now, as far as size is concerned. ubu

all resized now - should be ok (?) Zurich Mainstation, and the corny, pseudo-old "Landesmuseum", sort of an official museum displaying historical stuff, mostly too stupid to deal with, but not always. An ugly building, only 100 years old. The hall of the station, though is great. Maybe I can find an photo to show how it looks inside.

Gotta have some swiss banking institutes, of course... head offices of UBS and CS. The Paradeplatz - as the saying goes, you'd only have to dig through some meters of probably beton, and then you'd find tons of gold... some from Nazis, some from Jews, some from Swiss, some from other famous clients...

A view of the old town of Zurich, along the river "Limmat". The building right behind the tower of the church is the University of Zurich, right left of it is the Technical University (ETH), built by Gottfried Semper.

You can see the Uetliberg in the background - every tourist goes there, I haven't made it up there so far (though there's some sort of a train, no need to walk up there for me, and no urge to do so, either...)

The Grossmünster - one of the largest churches of Zurich - part of the reformation took place in its whereabouts (Zwingli was a preacher here, I think).

A view from the Quaibrücke, the bridge right at the lakeshore, though this view goes to the other side. Left the old town, left (in front) the "Bauschänzli" (mikeweil: that was the place your bass player had in mind, the "Biergarten" - the swimming baths is right behind it). The river comes out of the lake, it's called the "Limmat".

From the Jazztimes website: Listened to disc one of the Mosaic last night (instead of catching enough sleep), and hell, some of it is frantic and over the top, but then dig what he does with "Memories of You" and "Don't Stand a Ghost of a Chance"! Beautiful stuff! ubu

Same here. I've been drinking wines that are not sweet so I drink less. edited because I've been drinking... do you have poop on your face yet? Now that's disgusting, my friend! You Europeans always are so over the top! Btw, I decided to go the Leffe-road tonight, but only had one so far, so no poop here... ubu downed that wine already then, eh? Hell NO, when I say! Will have another Leffe and then I'll drop dead (till six a.m. tomorrow, that is...) ubu

Hey wazzup? Where are my fellow rats? Feels like I'm talking to myself

Hey, I've got a bottle of wine open, too, but what the feck does that have to with shit?

This is a GREAT album! Everybody better pick it up as long as it's around! Some of the best Wilen of that period, and great Lewis, too!

Very sad news! Wow, Distel and Jacquet, and we notice at almost the same minute
