Take this test and find out.

Hey, why couldn't I've gotten your guy!

Well, I called, but used my nice mode, answer: "It's at the wherehouse, they're filling the orders as they arrived. Call back in a couple of days if you don't hear anything." Okay, I'll wait, but next time: full-bore bitchy mode!

... and what CNN will be covering for the next two years.

Well, there might be hope yet, I placed my Coltrane order on 7/21 (have yet to hear anything on that order). Maybe I need to get into "bitchy mode" and give a call.

It seems like a natural thing to move the Keepin' it greazy!!! Thread to this forum. Or am I crazy?

That's when I got mine Has anybody noticed this new 6 CD Coltrane box Concord has scheduled for release on September 26? Fearless Leader That's my Plan B if I don't get my Coltrane box. Buy Fearless Leader, then buy JPN remasters of the rest of Coltrane's OJC appearances. A lot more expensive, and much longer to do, but what-the-heck, we all need goals in life.

Despite the pain-in-the-rear waiting for orders to be filled, (and I'm still waiting wordon my Coltrane box) this was a great sale, and I bought a ton of music I never dreamed of having. I especially would love another run at the K-2 20bit cds, they surprised me with their wonderful, warm sound. Almost equal to SACD to my ears.

I'm just going to pretend I never read this thread and assume that Coltrane is going arrive on my doorstep soon...

The Ebay price is going to be high on this one....

Happy Birthday!

I grew up in San Diego, we never did anything sick or wrong, just boring stuff...

Watermelon has to have salt on it! It just adds flavor that is like the NBA -- fantastic.

I don't know why but since day one, when I saw this cover, I thought it was the coolest thing ever.....

I've stopped doing carry-on about a year ago. It's just too much of a hassle; taking the laptop out, unbuckle the belt, take everything out of the pockets, take off the shoes, dump your wallet in the box, and THEN, there's agood chance you get pulled out of the line for an intense check (three times for me). Much easier to have nothing. Flying sucked after 9/11, and it just keeps getting worse, especially when you have to travel as a part of your job. Sorry for the rant but this is going to make flying more of a chore, if that's possible.

Nice I've also been making a habit of checking out other uploads from posters whose vids I like. Check out what else he's put up! http://www.youtube.com/profile_videos?user=softgaloil Thanks for the heads up. Whew- YouTube is getting hard to keep up with... Dan should check out the Ray Brown Trio stuff since it has Gene Harris playing. The influence of this board -- every time I see Gene Harris' name, I think of Dan.

Ron Powers: Mark Twain: A Life. Kind of an up and down book. The facts are pretty straight forward but the writing style, at times, is over the top. Calls Twain the first "Rock Star," which, while cute, doesn't help toward any deeper understanding of Clemens. Too "slangy" in style also, so I think this book will age badly. Saying that however, it is worth reading if you happen come across it on sale.

You can wear the Ferragamo Slingback Pumps with them, I mean, they are 10AAA. Hmmmm... 10AAA.....

There is no rhymn or reason to what Concord is doing. I've received my second order today, with my third on the truck but my first order, the Coltrane box, I have yet to hear anything on. What can you do? If you call the answer will be: "It's at the where-house."

Received confirmation on my third order -- which was all K-2's. Got all the Blakey's, the Monk's but Art Pepper: Smack Up wasn't filled. This order was placed 7/22 no. 6052. Still no "Complete Coltrane." PS: Sorry Ron S: I must be special...

I received confirmation this morning that my second order, no. 6057, which I placed on 7/22, has been shipped (42 cds). However, there's no word on my first order The Complete Coltrane, placed on 7/21 . Edit: To make sense out of what I wrote.

One of my projects today has been to compare One Down, One Up & Chasin' the Trane (Thursday, November 2, 1961 VV) and it's been very interesting listen. Intense music, to say the least.

I'm really late to this party but Down One, Up One is just great playing by a master. Interesting comments regarding time, rythmn, and all kinds of stuff in this thread. I want to thank everyone for making this one of the most interesting and annoying threads in the history of Organissimo. Going have to listen, experience and think over the music here for a long time.

Very happy that "Happenings" is coming out, that has my favorite rendition of "Maiden Voyage." Classy music.
