Wow, I've never seen it but I wouldn't doubt it. Stranger things have happened...

AMG shows it being a 2001 release.

I make mixed cdr's for my car all the time. Here's one: Henry Franklin "Theme For Jojo" Pat Martino "Willow" Cannonball Adderley "Snakin' The Grass" Charles Earland "Grasshopper" Phil Ranelin "Vibes From The Tribe (8-track version)" 4th Coming "The Dead Don't Die Alive" Grant Green "Down Here On The Ground" Wes Montgomery "Mellow Mood" George Benson "I Remember Wes" Kenny Burrell "Love Is The Answer" Rahsaan Roland Kirk "Portrait Of Those Beautiful Ladies" Jaco Pastorius "Portrait Of Tracy" Eddie Harris "Superfluous"

Wish I had more to offer discussion-wise, Dan. At most I can say, 'yeah, that sounds right' about other's guesses. FWIW I really dig the disc, I'm enjoying other's responses, and I'm looking forward to the answers.

Some list there, Dr J. The whole OOP business really chaps my hide. Picked up Lee Morgan THE PROCRASTINATOR...didn't know it wasn't issued at the time it was recorded. When did it originally come out?

Just went on a BN binge and bought: JJ Johnson THE EMINENT...volumes 1&2 Lee Morgan LEE WAY, SEARCH FOR NEW LAND Wayne Shorter THE ALL-SEEING EYE

Soulstation, the skips are only the result of your computer's mp3 player not reading them well. If they will extract, they will burn onto the cd and play normal. Try to play them with the player that is built into your cd burner.

Was I the only one whose files were coming in at breakneck speed last night? It was amazing--whole albums in like 3 minutes. I figured it was due to Hurricane Isabel knocking so many folks off-line.

I can hear the bee's thoughts: "What is that horrendously evil sound? PROTECT THE QUEEN!!!!"

Man, you guys can play! "Decoder" is murder.

I'm stoked, I just got mine in the mail, and I'm listening as I type. It is so damn cool to put sounds to the screen names of B-3er, Joe G, and randissimo. Really great so far, I'm knee deep in greeeaazzze over here! Hats off to Ron Blake too! Wow, "Life Wish" just started...this is awesome. Thanks guys. HUGE

You clownin' me there, Retep?

Never too late to start!! I'm always collecting doubles for trading purposes. Don't have any extras at the moment, but I'm sure I can keep an eye out for you. Thanks Conn! I reluctantly have avoided them due to the larger price. I've seen some 2cd sets for like $27...I bet they're worth every penny. Eventually I will break down and invest, when finances permit. I've actually spent a few hundred dollars in the last week, time to take a break for a month or so--just locked my credit card away to keep from impulse-buying.

Poor me, I have like two.

Many thanks to Dan for the efforts and the disc of cool tunes!!! Here are my first impressions: 1. I like 'em slow. I think I know the tune and it is bugging the shit out of me. 4 stars 2. Humorous lyrics are something I love. I was diggin' it just like the crowd. Played a Joe Williams song to check the voice--sounds right. 4.5 stars 3. I don't mind covers, especially not if they're of tunes I like in the first place as is the case here. I agree with an earlier guess that it sounds like King Curtis. 3.5 stars 4. The piano in this version sounds more mellow than other interpretations of this song I've heard. Nice. 3.5 stars 5. Not crazy about it, don't dislike it. 3 stars 6. Not feeling this one. 2.5 stars 7. The alto sounds relaxed despite the frantic pace, and I can see where Paul Desmond would come to mind. Another one I like but am not jumping up and down about. 3 stars 8. Really started digging this one when they turned the guitarist loose--he tears it up. 4 stars 9. Did I mention I like 'em slow? Nice piano work here. 3.75 stars 10. For some reason this one didn't do much for me, despite some skilled playing. 3 stars 11. Favorite so far--a killer rhythm and assertive bass-playing. Despite the fact that I have heard several versions of this, it sounds original and fresh. 5 stars 12. A nice greeeeaazzzy work-out, but not doing a whole lot for me. 3 stars 13. Serious and downright mean-sounding. This one along with 11 are my favorites. 5 stars That's with a single listen, perhaps my opinions will change on some of these. Looking forward to reading the attempts to decipher who's who. Thanks again, Dan Gould! B)

Inevitably I start to think I was born late.

Man, I really dig the Collectibles reissues. I hope my ears don't realize any sound deficiencies any time soon...

This is my favorite Mancini track that I have heard to date, from the album called SYMPHONIC SOUL. This track is laced up with killer strings and some funkalicious guitar that suit the title of the song.

The Raiders just tried their best to lose to the Bungles, and won on a last second field goal. Things aren't looking good to this fan of the silver & black.

Belated birthday salutations, Vibes!

Happy Birthday Dan!
