Thank-you!! Love George - very unique sound!!

I live in KC. Yes - very cold. Ticket prices have plummeted. Should be very interesting!!

That is delightful- thanks!!

That is very cool!! I will have to keep that in mind when I make it back to Paris!

I will play this today. Such a good record!! And I also love the French reissue cover photo posted above.

Goodness, what amazing record store do you shop in? 😃

Clear front runner, for sure. I certainly see fewer flaws and more strengths than any other team in the AFC.

Ugh ...

I think they outsource the "they" - at least maybe back to the conglomo in the background. Amazon = always cheap, incredibly speedy and transparent shipping. Super easy returns. Blue Note = don't bother unless you encounter an amazing sale and then, expect nothing remotely close to the Amazon experience. Don't even think about a return. So there are trade-offs. 😂

Same!!

Sadly, it is. In my experience they always deliver, but it can take forever. The trade-off associated with the super sales they run.

Wikipedia saying she received an honorary doctorate from Berklee in 2020:

Looks like he wrote two? One covering earlier periods of jazz. I saw those cheap, but the book in question here was $233. https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults?sts=t&cm_sp=SearchF-_-home-_-Results&ref_=search_f_hp&tn=Modern jazz%3A The essential records %3A a critical selection

$749.99 at amazom!

I love that box and everything BJP. Fun to know he was a local guy (Kansas City), along with Charles Kynard. I tend to gravitate towards the later stuff, so deeply in the pocket to my ears. Also love it when some of his sax players go a little outside on those later Blue Notes. PS - would love to hear the unissued DIW session!

Yep, I believe that is correct. Fun set!

Forty years of listening to jazz and he is my favorite organist. Just listened to the delicious comp yesterday:

I enjoy their Bandcamp page and buy albums from time to time. Pretty mainstream stuff, but sound samples make it easy to be choosey.

Perhaps my all-time favorite. Not a second wasted:

Thanks!

Looking for Maze recommendations, please.

Some Maze perhaps? I never know where to start.

FSU has every right to be livid. Sadly the “solution” will be coming next year with the expanded playoff. Expect the top four teams (i.e. those with byes) to be filled by the SEC and Big 10 between now and forever. If you root for a team from one of those two conferences or are a casual fan, great. If you are an undefeated team from the ACC or Big 12, be “thankful” that you are in. Perhaps this is slightly cynical, but who would have ever thought the PAC 12 would have been blown up? Stanford and Cal in the ACC? And WSU and OSU out in the cold. And decades old rivalries being discarded.

Agree 100% What else could FSU have done? Football is not about one player. College football is deeply flawed, especially relative to the NFL. Unless of course you pull for the Big 10 or SEC.
