I saw it. My friend Claire Didier edited it. It's great!
-
I'll go further. One doesn't have to be too cerebral to realize the whole thing is a wry joke, with all the quotes faked.
-
Agree with Leeway. I'm interested in the extras; not available on streaming.
-
Paypal says it won't ask you to click on a link to submit the info - those are scams. But if you log in to Paypal yourself and it is there, no scam.

For Jorge Ben, also (or start with) get Africa Brasil. One of the greatest albums of all time. In any genre, I think.

Didn't feel a thing here in Los Angeles. Glad I live here, away from all those places that have earthquakes!

Congratulations! Now you need to make some more art!

Sadly I don't think that they make this any more:
Ben & Jerry's Chubby Hubby
According to their website, it's still in production:
http://www.benjerry.com/flavors/our-flavors/
Flavor graveyard:
http://www.benjerry.com/fun/halloween/?fg=1
But in neither is listed one that I liked a lot but only found twice in stores (never in a shop):
http://www.icecreamsource.com/Dave-Mathews-Band-Magic-Brownies_p_65.html
hmm, maybe found a source
The flavor locator is pretty cool:
http://www.benjerry.com/flavors/flavor-locator/
and so is this:
/www.icecreamsource.com
otherwise, I have a soft spot for Baskin Robbins Peanut Butter & Chocolate, but not really any other Baskin-Robbins flavors.
And I generally get chocolate & vanilla form Trader Joe's, and that serves my purposes.

Burrell is always in town; he lives in LA, as far as I know, because he teaches at UCLA. He has a concert as part of UCLA Live this Fall or Winter with lots of guests, and he tends to play Catalina's twice a year.
But of course that tends to make me to take him for granted, and that' a mistake.

King of the Zulus, I think - reference to Louis in the New Orleans parade, I think.

Never heard of this case or her before this verdict announcement. Really, who has time to follow every little over-sensationalized crime story - those are the things used to distract people from real issues.
-
Congrats! Where in Jefferson Park?
You're near USC, the Velaslavasay Panorama, Exposition Park?
-
I know a few people who have come and gone. It's hard to meet people and find a place here. But also easy to reinvent yourself,for the same reasons, probably. Really essential to find some extra-curricular activities to start making friends, and not do the Work-Home-Work life.
But there is always a lot of driving.

Does anybody in Los Angeles every return phone calls? I've left at least 30 messages at apartments and room shares and have gotten about 2 callbacks so far. You'd think someone might be interested in actually taking my money...
Frustrating as HELL.
No, they don't call back if it's already taken. And sometimes even if it is available, they'll take several days to reply. A weird feature.
Sunland is good if you get a job in the Valley or Pasadena. It gets HOT out there in teh summer though. But there are mountains and horses as well.

Flying to Amsterdam tomorrow with Big Jay McNeely, filming him as he tours a few jazz festivals:
Jazztime at the Keppel Castle
Jazz Ascona, Switzerland
http://www.jazzascona.ch/index.php/en/
Vache de Blues Festival, Audun le Tiche, France
Anyone going to be at any of these, or anything going on in Amsterdam on 27-28 June?

How temporary is temporary?

Dodgers & Lakers - native of Los Angeles.
Not a huge follower of the Dodgers in the Fox/McCourt era. Don't follow sports very much at all.

Canceled his appearance at the Playboy Jazz Festival this weekend.

Here's mine:
-
I just saw Maceo playing with Prince at the Forum in Inglewood last week. Good times!
-
OK, sounds reasonable. I'm not married to Technics or anything.
-
I'd add Blind Willie McTell. Still only on Bootleg 1-3. Fair to call it overlooked?
-
Black Album - how many are there that are all black?
I've bought Sun Ra albums from the Arkestra at shows that are in plain white sleeves.
Gray Album by Jay-Z
R & B reading
in Jazz In Print - Periodicals, Books, Newspapers, etc...

Yes, I read it recently. It's a hearty tome; a bit of Shaw patting Shaw's back at times, but he was at a lot of places, so it ended up fine by me.
Also out there to read:
Nervous Man Nervous: Big Jay McNeely and the Rise of the Honking Tenor Sax, by Jim Dawson (but out of print)
Upside Your Head! Rhythm and Blues on Central Avenue, by Johnny Otis
Listen to the Lambs, by Johnny Otis
Midnight at the Barrelhouse, by George Lipsitz (a bio of Johnny Otis - seemed a bit more introductory than some of Lipsitz's other writings)
Brand new, not read but sitting here, is
The Chitlin' Circuit and the Road to Rock 'N' Roll, by Preston Lauterbach
Also more on LA but with a healthy amount of R&B discussion:
The Great Black Way: L.A. in the 1940s and the Lost African American Renaissance, by R.J. Smith
