Funny - I have that one in my "To Listen" lineup. Haven't heard it in a long time. I'll be interested to see how it goes for me.

'The Fabulous Fats Navarro Vol 2' (BN Lexington). To say that this music is vital and historic would be an understatement !

[Clunky]

Annie Ross ----with Tony Kinsey----(Xtra) 1966 reissue in excellent condition.

picked up yesterday - a great set in a cabaret/jazz style ( Brecht like). Lyrics are a political satire by and large. 

[jazzbo]

First LP as a newly-married man. I've had this one since its initial release. I only need to hear a few notes and a mood is presented to me. Memory is a fascinating thing.

My fiancee introduced me to his music and I can't say I've been the same since... he's great.

Congratulations, Lon!

Pics or it didn't happen!

[jazzbo]

Only one picture really, taken back at the house afterwards. . . it's still Christmas on the mantle!

Thanks Duane and Clifton. Here is a brief description of the event, and then I'll shut up about it. (I'm very happy).

We got married on a dock on a little lake a half a mile from our house out in the woods. Just Lucy and the minister and I. The dock went out onto the lake, which has ice covering most of it. After the minister left we sat on a bench we often sit on looking out onto the lake and just enjoyed the peace and happiness of the event a bit. Within minutes an osprey came flying over the lake and landed on the ice a few hundred feet from us and ice fished a fish out of the lake! He flew off towards us over the lake but from behind us an eagle swooped in and startled the osprey who dropped the fish on the ice and flew off. The eagle landed on the ice about 60 feet from us and sat and ate the fish for a few minutes, then walked about the ice a bit and then flew off away from us over the lake. We've heard of this osprey/eagle situation but having transpire in front of us right after we were married. . . a great experience.

If that doesn't call for Mingus, I don't know what does.

Congrats!
