Hey, I warned you:

These might be nice cds to have, but they're kind of light wieght, it begs the question: If this is the second group, what next? Sorry if I sound down on these, but I am disappointed in the selections. Of course, I'm not speaking for Chuck, don't want him getting cranky at me.

Well maybe...... but I reserve the right to remain pig-headed, close-minded, stupid and unreasonable in these matters.

Sorry, keeping my money this time around. I mean, does the world really need another vocalist + Ralph Burns cd at this point -- nothing against Wiley, love her on the Condon Mob. These titles do not strike me in any way, in any manner.

Earl Campbell? Running back? Houston Oilers? I was expecting film clips of some of his runs... Remember that Monday Night Football game that Campbell had, AWESOME!

Dude -- I don't know you! The 80's rule!

This is the cd he thinks is the best of 1983....

For taking that sick post out of Miscellaneous Music. Don't need that kind of bs around here. You guys do a great doing keeping this great board going.

I DARE YOU NOT TO SMILE AND GROOVE ON THIS!

Music Boy: Greatest Hits.

How in the world does Zeke keep landing on his feet in these power struggles? If only he was half as good running the Knicks. The Knicks have to get rid of both if they want to go anywhere -- wonder if Brown wished he had listened to Cleveland more seriously.

We're have fantastic weather right now, no clouds, high in the mid 70's.

Well, each one has his/her own tastes, but I like the arranged quality of the music, sometime I just get tired of the unision head/solos/head format that a lot of hard bop falls into. It's very enjoyable to me to listen to JJ's arrangments and hear the different ways he presents the music. I'm very glad I got this before time ran out.

Thanks for the responses, I'm in David's camp as I would perfer to see things included to make it a really complete set -- Diz/Getz, Diz/Stuff. Granted it would raise the price, but Dizzy is well worth it. Might wait to see the discography before I pull the trigger on this set. Like the fact that the Double Six sessions will be on, if true.

Gee, Sheff has never placed himself before the team before (n.b. VERY HEAVY SARCASM INTENDED). To be fair to Shef, didn't he play with a bad shoulder for quite some time??? As hard as he swings, he needs to be 100% Dodger fan here -- so cry me a river about Sheff and see if I care. Sheff is part of my Mr. Personality outfield, along with Bonds & Griffey.

Ah, Berkeley I lived there for six years going to school, how I loved that city......

.... And they'll feel so bad about it that they'll give me the pre-order price, right? Of course!

This is supposed to be out next month, which is great. Does anyone know if The Dizzy Gillespie/Stan Getz Sextet, Vols. 1 & 2 will be included on this, or left out? No response to my emails from Mosaic on the subject for some reason.

I thought he was going over for a chat. As for the fashions: I graduated from High School in San Diego, class of 1976 -- you don't even want to know what we wore.

Thanks for the Bill Evans link, Matthew. Because I don't have a copy of it, I particularly enjoyed seeing "Gloria's Step," which is taken from a weekly show I produced and co-hosted some 35 years ago (that's me at the bar, behind Bill). Adolf Bush avatar courtesy of Weizen. Your welcome! Did you interview Evans after he played? Love those 70's fashions.

I'm stealing this straight from Steve Hoffman Forums, only because it's a great idea, and I don't have a clue what half the avatars are that I see here. I'll go first... <------ self portrait of Francis Bacon, my favorite artist, I find them fascinating

...and just think, stacks of Mobley's are still sitting on the shelves. Mobley will be my next purchase. I REALLY don't want to be without that one.

Glad I made it under the wire, I feel like......

Sorry if this link appeared before, but some very nice Bill Evans videos....
