I’ve found that in the last calendar quarter of each year and the following quarter, they don’t introduce jazz titles so I wasn’t surprised with their current offerings in the Classics section.

Bullitt is one of my favorite movies. I’ve seen it countless times. Steve McQueen did his own stunts. The jazz score by Lalo Schifrin is terrific.

Yes. You can quit at will without penalty. I’ve done it twice. I’m currently not a member.

It’s a fabulous album, especially the title track where he sings. Earl Hines’ Tour de Force albums are fantastic. So is the Mosaic Master Jazz Piano box.

I don’t think that’s completely true because they did work with Concord on the Savoy set. Hopefully, we’ll see more collaborations in the future.

True but their Jazz Dispensary section has put out some good stuff like Leon Spencer.

Scott at Mosaic confirmed to me several months ago that they’re not returning to vinyl.

I’m on the fence about purchasing the new red and blue records.

While I enjoyed the various takes of Stablemates and Red Cross, I got a real kick out of his playing Soprano Sax on In a Sentimental Mood. It’s a moving rendition.

I don’t know about the only one but I never confused them.

Disc 3.

The owner, Mike is a rather interesting character and not shy about speaking his mind. On several occasions he’s slammed The Electric Recording Company. He was also the one that raised the whole Mobile Fidelity digital issue.

Yesterday, I received an email, apparently from PayPal, that I was being charged $747 for some appliance. I presumed it was fraudulent but I logged onto my account to make sure. Someone indeed had sent me an invoice for that amount but PayPal immediately flagged it as spam and canceled it. I called to make sure and they confirmed that no funds had been paid.

The In Groove has a rather active YouTube channel. This is his most recent video, so you can find his other ones.

Never had an issue with PayPal and if I have a question about something they’re very responsive.

The In Groove comes to mind. I think they have a large jazz selection.

Discs 1 and 2.

Unfortunately, the pitching matchup favors the Marlins but the Mets generally seem to have the Marlins number this year. I saw the incident. Growing up overseas I saw that term being used but in a friendly, kidding way between friends. However, if you use it in anger you’re asking for trouble.

Mets helped out a little today but unfortunately Braves beat Cubs again.

RIP. His feats against the Reds are legendary (watched it on TV while I was in college).

I caught part of the game last night since the Mets game was rained out and was pretty shocked. I’m going to the Mets Marlins games (DH) today so hopefully the Mets can do their bit to help the Cubs.
