  1. I used to buy mine at BJs, four packs to a blister pack, eight hearing aids to a pack.
  2. Excellent! My new hearing aids are rechargeable. Avoids having to deal with batteries. I don’t know if I mentioned this but my new ones have a streaming option; it’s a little device that plugs into the tv and the sound is channeled right into your aids. Makes listening to tv easier.
  3. If you had hearing aids that would probably take care of the issue. I’m puzzled why you haven’t done that yet. Can hearing aids help prevent dementia? Hearing Aids Are More Affordable, and Perhaps More Needed, Than Ever From the second article: “In 2020, the influential Lancet Commission on Dementia Prevention, Intervention and Care identified hearing loss as the greatest potentially modifiable risk factor for dementia.” The second article among, other things, discussed a new study that hearing aids could reduce the loss of cognitive decline.
  4. ‘Round Mudnight by Bud Powell Trio on Americans in Europe, volume 1.
  5. It is believed to be common. His punishment is a warning to the rest of baseball.
  6. You wouldn’t have to do all that if you had hearing aids. In addition, not having hearing aids increases your chances for dementia.
  7. You will hear music a lot better.
  8. John McWhorter, who is a Professor at Columbia and a columnist at the NYT came out with a column today. No, Rhapsody Blue is Not the Worst Ethan Iverson also weighed in on McWhorter’s column. https://open.substack.com/pub/iverson/p/tt-362-there-is-nothing-more-dreadful?r=b9oem&utm_medium=ios&utm_campaign=post
  9. If it’s not supposed to be for sale in the US (you can buy it on Amazon; so much for that) how can it for sale in the E.U. as the studio session was made in 1960 and copyright limitations in the E.U. are 70 years I believe.
  10. It’s my recollection that her label, without offering her a chance to buy them, sold the masters to a person she doesn’t like (Scooter Braun) so she decided to devalue his purchase by re-recording those albums. She’s always struck me as pretty savvy.
  11. That makes sense. There is no need to have two websites. One thing I’d like to see in the Vandy one (which I don’t right now unless I’m not using it correctly) is to have the option to have it in chronological order but that’s a minor complaint.
  12. Great news indeed. Thanks. I wonder if his website will continue.
  13. I’m afraid that in 100 years everyone participating in this discussion will be taking the proverbial dirt nap.
  14. That is quite true. Rhapsody is so different than anything else.
  15. I posted the article at SHF and it seems to have raised strong reactions. I used to listen to Gershwin as a kid and used to love his compositions but have barely listened since then, except when I board a United flight. I’ve never considered it jazz although GG may have been influenced by jazz. It’s no fault of GG I suppose but I consider it pop.
  16. Maybe because I’m an organ enthusiast I have a hard time believing that anything by Baby Face won’t sell, especially because he recorded so few sessions.
  17. RIP.
  18. I echo Kevin’s sentiments Larry. Hope you never have to go back there.
  19. Scott Norwood is in the house.
  20. Had me on the edge of my seat. 49ers will need to play better to get to the SB. However, Deebo’s status is uncertain and they won’t get there without him.
