  1. Brad, I was spared from that fate, because soon after I found out about Mosaic, I found some long OOP LP sets in a small store here, and among them was the Brooks (that was when only "True Blue" would have been available, but as I did not know about Brooks, but did know about Mosaic... I could not have gone wrong). ubu
  2. Who is Kant? And, hell, do I study philosophy or not? And: does "jazz" (what is jazz, anyway?) fit into Kant's "ästhetische Erfahrung"? ubu
  3. Was Tina a kangarooh: ?
  4. What does Anna Achmatova have to do with Tina Brooks? (courtesy of google image search): ubu? (who am I?)
  5. I think I should have written: Am I too lazy...? Then: who is Tina Brooks, is she beautiful? Is she this lady: ? And what does she have in common with Madonna? And who is Madonna? Is she a person from the Bible? ubu?
  6. And can some kind soul please write up a short abstract of what was discussed in this thread? I am too lazy to read it all... ubu
  7. What actually IS a stupid question?
  8. Good for you, John! Seriously, you'll be in for some great music! ubu
  9. Now don't you know couw like's Mosaics about as much as he likes Miles? ubu You'd be surprised! Oh, sure, I know John likes surprises (as do I ), and I guess if he does not have to get it the "regular way"... ubu
  10. Now don't you know couw like's Mosaics about as much as he likes Miles? ubu
  11. Here's one more by Bowie (found it while looking for the one I mentioned in my previous post): http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&u...l=Ao1rp28or05ja The title of the Bowie/Shaw album is "Bugle Boy Bop" (Muse 5268). ubu
  12. There's a duo album of Lester Bowie and Charles "Bobo" Shaw. I think it was on Muse, originally. I have it on my listening pile right now. Got it on a cheap (british) Camden 2CD reissue which includes three Bowie Muse albums. I remember it as pretty good. ubu
  13. I'm late to join in here - just heard the McKusick parts on that Bluebird "Arrangers" compilation (thanks to mikeweil ). Really fascinating music. Also, it's great to hear Evans AND Russell on the same disc. Would be one hell of a Mosaic, collecting the RCA Victor Jazz Workshop albums! ubu
  14. Happy birthday! Stick around! ubu
  15. ubu B)
  16. that might be the only one I'd pay this much for! ubu
  17. There's that one Roach intro, pretty early on the respective disc, that's really some of his most impressive playing I have heard! (Don't have the set at hand to check) ubu
  18. John who? ubu
  19. Everybody who knows my tastes knows I'd love to grab this one - were it not for my dreaded buying freeze... I'm sure this is a great one, had it in my hands in stores several times. ubu
  20. Now you see, there starts your barbaric illiteracy! Umm... I don't know what you mean. I'm a grammer. Someone who grams. I take great delight in gramming. There's no greater joy than gramming or being grammed. Ideally, I try to gram at least four times a day. (A frequency NOT recommended for the beginner!) OK! I was at work and in a hurry! I've never grammed in my life! My humiliation is complete. -_-
  21. We (that is, my parents etc) used to have our own apples - hell, how do you say that - worked to "Süssmost". No bubbles, then. The one with bubbles can be alright, but often is quite unnatural, too, I feel. ubu
  22. Hey that's tonight, not last night! And I'm having this one, anyway: (and hell, answer my PMs! ) ubu
  23. Don't think soda is added. I would say it's natural fermentation. Just mentioning this sussmost has me longing for a taste! If I remember well, it originates in some parts of Dwitzerland only. If Ubu could take a break from his beerdrinking, he could shed some light on this important matter. Hey, last night I did not drink any red wine, ahm, beer - no alcoholic beverages at all - by the way, "Süssmost" is just the family version of what in the eastern/north-eastern parts of Switzerland (but who cares, Switzerland is so small) is called "Saft" (short for "Apfelsaft"), and "Saft" is not sweet, but alcoholic, and therefore much better, see? ubu
  24. Huh? Reading this thread backwards, so I might find out what they want from me! ubu
