| Record Cleaner Advice? This has been quite a technical tour de force. One surprise is the respect the old Nitty Gritty units still garner.It has me wondering if I should do my deep cleaning with my old NG 1.5 (using Tergitol or distilled water) and acquire a VPI 16.5 o... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I also thought Lady G did a great rendition. When she first burst on the scene years ago, I was dismissive because she worked so hard at being outrageous. Somewhere along the line, I realized she was quite a songstress. | |
| Jazz for aficionados A little behind today, but I did find that "Boogaloo" Joe Jones was born Ivan Joseph Jones in 1940.Noting his fairly prodigious output adds to my recognition that I'm not nearly as much of an aficionado as I thought I was a few months ago. Maybe ... | |
| Jazz for aficionados Yeah, OK, before chasing Billie tonight I did run into this pretty funky jazz album by Ivan Boogaloo Joe Jones: "Psychedelic Jazz Guitar." Nice groove, although I didn't hear much "pyschedelic" - probably just typical marketing for the mid 60's. ... | |

| Jazz for aficionados Dang O10, you been holding out on us on Monk's "Les Liaisons Dangereuses?" Some very familiar tunes on here but other tracks I've never heard.You're like "Felix the Cat" with an endless bag of tricks. | |
| Jazz for aficionados If you need to catch up on Ayn Rand, your first mistake was starting to read any of it at all. | |
| Jazz for aficionados Vietnam led me to distrust my own country. Later on I learned a lot more that made it worse. Please don't ask, at least not on this forum.My original anthem wasn't jazz: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7qkQewyubs | |
| Jazz for aficionados O10, I have heard of that phenomenon of not being able to bear normal life without the rush of combat, but have never met anyone that had that going on. That must have been a real eye-opener."The Hurt Locker" dealt with the same subject, although... | |
| Jazz for aficionados pjw, thanks for the McLaughlin/deLucia/Coryell at Royal Albert Hall. It always makes me both sad and happy to watch, having later learned that Larry was nearing the bottom of his substance abuse and was barely functioning. John soon asked Di Meo... | |
| Jazz for aficionados The Thai saying is "sum num na." Americans had no business in Viet Nam. Why the f**k would we even try after the best French leadership told us it was a lost cause? We all know the answer - perceived American righteousness and invincibility. S... | |
| Jazz for aficionados I've been moved by Miles' "Ascenseur pour l'echafaud" for many years. The ascension to the gallows for one's execution. The deepest blues conceivable, and Miles laid it down perfectly. Mournful, bent notes that plumb the depths of despair.So be... | |
