  1. Disk two this morning. On to disk three. I'm finding this box set very enjoyable. Disk four. Very nice music. Disk five tonight. Interesting music, very organized yet has a sense of freedom to it.
  2. I've been jonesin' for this for awhile (though I have many of these on CD already) and when I read your post I decided to go for it. Thanks a lot, Matthew........ Interesting price variation among the various sources: Amazon (used, independent seller): $199.00 (yeah, right!!!) CDUniverse: $121.65 Overstock: $95.21 Needless to say I went for the latter, seemed like a good deal, especially not knowing if this box is going to disappear soon. (Interesting, I also got the Evans Verve "Tetanus" box from Overstock some time ago....) I'm sure someone else found it for 50 bucks or something, though...... Your welcome! I bought the Fantasy Evans because I think this box will disappear very soon (I have a hunch that Concord isn't making anymore of these -- no proof, just a gut feeling). I was tracking the price the past couple of months and it kept going up and up. Great music though, and the sound is very good. My one mistake is that I didn't buy the Milestone solo cds because I thought they would be on this set. Turns out they're in the Riverside box set --my bad. I don't want to tell you have much I paid for the Verve box -- Yikes! I've taken all the cds out of that dangerous box, and put them is three 6 cd cases.
  3. Excuse me, it was six F's and one MF. You know, baseball is all about the stats.
  4. Is Leeway the ebay seller Lee5555? I just bought a cd from him last week....
  5. I wonder if Selig has any idea what a hypocritical piece-of-crap he looks doing things like this. I'm not a Bonds apologist but this just plays into what his defenders are saying. Bonds: African-American and Selig treats him with utter disdain. Giambi: White and gets a free pass. Selig doesn't have a clue on anything.
  6. Heaven help me, I bought this today, and I've never seen an episode all the way through in my life. Arrived a couple of days ago, and I'm still on season one. I must admit that I'm really enjoying the series so far. Very relaxing just to watch an episode or two a day.
  7. Bill Evans: Complete Fantasy Recordings. Disk one. Arrived in the mail today and I'm listening to Evans/Gomez/Morell at Yubin Chokin Hall, Tokyo. Very nice concert and the sound is also good. Glad I finally got this.
  8. Bill Evans: The Secret Sessions. Disk six.
  9. disc 2 now, once again leaving out the McFarland - don't feel like more than a trio right now... Go ahead, put me out of my misery. The McFarland session is one of the tops in terms of my favorite Evans session.
  10. Great news from www.blackfield.org The Blackfield DVD recorded at the Bowery Ballroom, NYC on 16th March 2007, is nearing completion and is set for release on 15th October in Europe and 6th November in the USA, through KScope/Snapper. The DVD, entitled "BLACKFIELD:NYC - Live in New York City", includes the whole concert edited by Lasse Hoile, with sound mixed into stereo and 5.1 surround sound by Steven Wilson. The full track listing for the DVD is: 1. Once 2. Miss U 3. Blackfield 4. Christenings 5. The Hole In Me 6. 1,000 People 7. Pain 8. Glow 9. Thankyou 10. Epidemic 11. Someday 12. Open Mind 13. My Gift of Silence 14. Where is My Love? 15. End of the World 16. Hello 17. Once (encore) 18. Cloudy Now Very happy about this, Blackfield is fantastic.
  11. How is the book VB? I always found Kahn to veer toward the melodramatic in his books. Of course, with Dempsey's life, that might be a great way to go. Very entertaining so far, although with Dempsey's life, it would be hard to make it boring, My only qualm would be that he thinks that he is as interesting as the subject so he puts personal stories about himself in it. yeah, the personal stuff really weakened The Boys of Summer, and his other books. Still, Dempsey is a fascinating character, so I'll probably get the book.

  13. thanks. phil broadcast for the padres, as well. Surely, you must be thinking of Jerry Coleman, the old Yankee second baseman?
  14. It was probably http://youtube.com/watch?v=NMXYcPnySxg. I love RH!!!! :wub: :excited:
  15. After watching Gagne blow two games in one weekend and watching him give up more runs in a handful of appearances for the Sox than he gave up all season for Texas, I say it serves you right. :excited: Hay Dan, wouldn't be so funny if the Mariners beat out the Red Sox for the wild card? :excited:
  16. Heaven help me, I bought this today, and I've never seen an episode all the way through in my life.
  17. I'm seriously thinking of getting Friends - The Complete Series Collection. Need something as a stress buster. I know.... I hang my head in shame.
  18. Gagne is juicing. No way in hell he could throw 72 saves without being on steroids. Then he blew out his arm because the tendons couldn't hold the muscle mass. 'Roid rage is his middle name, fer crissakes. I think we need to call in the Grand Jury for a full-scale shame investigation....sure hope he has an angry ex-girlfriend or a hat size change. That'll seal the deal. Oh, I know! Maybe we can get one of those pretend reporters from the yellow journalism king, Hearst Corporation, to trump up some almost true charges! Yeah...that'll convince 'em! Asterisk, bay-bee. Oh...no wait! Gagne is white. Damn. What was I thinking? Carry on. No way, it's just the typical Dodger tradition of riding a pitcher into the ground. If you're a hot pitcher with the Blue, you're toast. It's the Lasorda legacy.
  19. Sweet dreams were made of this.....
  20. I ordered Biograph, which is about the only Dylan I don't have.
  21. Disk two this morning. On to disk three. I'm finding this box set very enjoyable. Disk four. Very nice music.
  22. Bill Evans: The Complete Fantasy Recordings.
  23. ...And speaking of the Nicholas Brothers, this is my all-time favorite clip -- amazing.
