Can't find anything interesting about Harry Connick--he bores me. Don't tell me there's a Mosaic featuring him!

Storm P, on the other hand, is among my favorite humorists--In my childhood, Christmas wasn't Christmas without the annual Storm P book.

Saxofonen er det eneste Instrument, som lyder ens, mens man lærer at spille, og naar man har lært det!

Sorry for the slight detour--back to Mosaic.

George Shearing appeared a few years ago in Toronto with his trio and ended

the set with: "My name is Harry Connick Jr."

There was wild applause.

You figure out what he meant.

San Francisco Scene is from his Mosaic box.

His quote: "Only a gentleman knows when not to play the accordian" is straight

out of Storm P.

Chico Hamilton Quintet - Disc 1...

Haven't listened to this in a VERY LONG time.... Didn't like it originally... thought it was time to give it another spin....

:unsure:

I don't know if this will help you like it more, but it recently sold on Ebay (here) for $510. :excited:

Well, I guess it's a good thing I'm digging the 1st disc... since I can hold onto to for another 5 years about it will either go for $1000 or $9.99...

:huh:

Roy Eldridge. Disc 3. I was on the fence about this set, but so many positive comments from board members pushed me in what turns out to be the right direction. I had zero Roy in my entire collection up until I got this one, so I'm getting to discover him and these Verve sides all at the same time. If I could drink the stuff, I'd be thinking about an Old Milwaukee, cuz it doesn't get any better than this.

Up over and out.
