  1. By the way, anyone here into cycling themselves? I was up to age 16, when music took over place number 2 in my life (no. 1 always being schooling), once it became less important, and also became clear I wouldn't really make it. ubu
  2. I know you're spanish, too, but man, can't you see that slightly dumb look he always had?
  3. I don't know if you're aware of this: Mosaic was planning a Granz Jam Sessions set. Now they told me that Verve will do this themselves - let's hope they do it right, nevertheless! ubu
  4. Anyone read Siegfried Kracauers "Die Angestellten"? Sports is a big lie! ubu (Is there some corner in Europe were the few - among them I - with absolutely no, dig: absolutely no, interested in soccer can hide?)
  5. Here's the discussion of what's going on over there currently: http://www.organissimo.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=10871 ubu
  6. My problem, recently, is that I'm liking ALL KINDS of jazz... from boogie woogie, to New Orleans, to pre-bop, bebop, bip bop, hardbop, post bop, avant garde, and early fusion... on rare occasions, even som hip hop. No one can save me know. Hey, just thinking of it, I need to buy some more Mosaics before I get behind. Seems like we really opened up to some pre bop and NO styles about the same time... I know the problem of wanting to get into all styles, and all at the same time, too... I'm still, as I said, scratching the surface, but I definitively have been fixed! ubu
  7. What's that? I've got the 1999 edition of this one - any mistake there? (Don't have it at hand to check right now) thanks, ubu
  8. While I have not yet deeply gotten into music of this vintage (I have some Mercury Ammons, and the Hall disc mentioned above), I like the only MLL-led disc I have: Grab it if you see it! ubu
  9. or should the last part read "jazz butt"?
  10. Organissimo: everything you always wanted to know about jazz but... ubu

    Sucks. B) You know, that disc isn't half bad. Who knew? Hell, what "half bad" - this disc is BAAAD! And if you don't say so soon, we might all stop talking to you! ("all" obviously meaning all of us polish royals ) ubu
  12. This is what I found about Jack Sheldon, too. Thanks for the info! ubu

    Jimmy Raney

    Listening to Raney visits Paris Vol 1 right now - marvellous playing by both Raney and Sonny Clark. Thanks for killing my bank account and making me hear this wonderful music! ubu
  14. Anyone has an idea who's playing? I found that Jack Sheldon appers on the soundtrack, but nothing else. ubu

    Sucks. Yeah, sucks big time! And someone better send me some money so that I can buy that "Thingin'" soon! Got the other Zentralquartet disc on Intakt, as well as Hal Russel's first Atavistic Unheard disc, both for 5 bucks, new, in that only one store dedicated purely to jazz on the last day it was opened (had to made a last visit there, and couldn't resist...) Also, on the same day (Saturday), interviewed Stephan Wittwer. A very interesting person he is! ubu
  16. Just in case - I take care of this! No need to contact Brad! Thanks! ubu
  17. Now c'mon guys! There are certainly some among you that have witnessed the Basie band(s)! Please step ahead and post something! Would be really appreciated! Thanks, ubu
  18. John, you have admin options far down, left side, choose "Delete Topic" and gone it is! ubu Thanks! I didn't realize the option was located there. Threads deleted. Knew it because I had the same problem earlier
  19. John, you have admin options far down, left side, choose "Delete Topic" and gone it is! ubu
  20. Will post my replies tonight - planned to do so on saturday, but then the board was down all weekend - thanks for the disc, Daniel, I really enjoyed it! ubu (PS: I have not read anything here!)
  21. Hope it stays for good! Was having a hard time over the weekend
  22. It was on 32. Great one! Might turn up again on Savoy... ubu

    Let me mention this one again: I think it's pretty fascinating music. Quiet, almost a bit meditative at points. The mix of electronics with Gebbia and Wogram works quite organically. Also, Gebbia and Wogram are two fascinating instrumentalists. It's not one to shine from the start, but one that has to grow, I think. I shall definitively listen to it again. (I got it from the libary, by the way). ubu And let me add: It's a great CD, in my opinion! I like the blend of Wogram and Gebbia a lot, and Garcia adds a lot. It's not the horns that fly and Garcia who provides background - things flow in and out of focus constantly, the horns do have solos, also long ones, but everything is organically growing out of each other. Wogram at times sounds like a didgeridoo, Gebbia does some multiphonics, too. And they're not afraid of the melody. ubu
  24. You sure? Maybe sounded more like what our friend couw likes ... Or, maybe, it was HER horn, and he took it away from her: Maybe it all started when he took her horn?
