  1. It was 1971 when I started listening to jazzes, and a little bit of everything was out there, and that was what I liked. That turned into a lot of everything. Stories about people places and things real or not worlds known and unknown. I have few complaints about that, and there's still more and other musics, some are quite engaging!
  2. Narcissism (or the appearance thereof) is not political in and of itself.
  3. Just hold everything up to a light. If there's even the tiniest pinhole, it's game over.
  4. If one just follows the notes, one will always hear some surprise notes that seem to go out of their way not to sound like surprises. Same thing with most of his writing. On an otherwise dispiriting record, this happens: Oliver Nelson was a very stealth guy
  5. No idea what the science is, but I have corrected innumerable glitchy CDr s (and regular CDs) simply by ripping them on my PC. Not always, but mostly Where you hit a wall is if there's any irregularity, even a pinhole, in the reflective surface on the top of the disc. That's game over. Aftermarket self-applied labels are especially insidious that way. Avoid at all costs!

    Donald Byrd

    Grooves harder than the Mizell-produced studio albums.
  7. RIP 'em first.
  8. That's a superior record!
  9. Ron Carter, not Richard Davis. My bad. They also did this one: Not Ohio. But this one was: One side Stokes, on side Oliver. Both are interesting!
  10. I remember Ohio. Oh, that one's got Richard Davis and James Spaulding
  11. This is a REALLY good set!
  12. The Last Mile is not in sight in this neighborhood!!! I don't see the efficiency either. I routinely see drivers park, get several deliveries in hand, and then sprint between houses before getting back on the truck and then moving on to do it again. Brave new world, this is
  13. Mixed feelings about the orchestra side, I get that. But that quartet side is something else again!
  14. I've got some neighbors who are pretty aggressive 2nd amendment types. Like REALLY aggressive. It would be the randomness of any shots that would worry me. Greetings from Texas.
  15. Anybody else getting emails touting the current availability of a drone delivery option from Amazon on many items? I worry about gunshots from some of my more...paranoid?....neighbors. But I admit to finding it just a little odd to think about. Odd, but maybe cool too.
