Jazz for aficionados frogman, thank you, "Evidence" in Japan is the best Monk clip I've seen yet. Lots of great observations on the playing by Monk and Rouse. I'll add:Rouse never looked at Monk - no need - and he may not have realized Monk had stood up and was walk... | |

Jazz for aficionados @mahgister Bold post, thanks! Enjoyable ukelele number. Who can resist that tune (and scenery)?Uke videos have multiplied like rabbits, with predictable outcomes. For me, the best are enjoyable because of our emotional attachment to certain son... | |
Jazz for aficionados @acman3 Nice Ray Brown clip.Like your posting style. You're acman, not yakman. | |
Jazz for aficionados MJ, a riveting post, thank you so much. I was planning to "stop by" for a few minutes to see if there were new posts, and it was like a wonderful wake-up call in reverse (it "woke me up" from my frantic day). Turned my day around 180 for awhile... | |

What’s your obstacles on the way of listening Great, funny topic. Thanks OP!No evening noises except my old basement furnace in winter. Pretty amazing since the old houses here are tightly packed - but it's a residential side street. The furnace can intrude during quiet musical passages bu... | |
Record Cleaner Advice? Finally listed the busted-MDF HW-17F machine I received last month. It was barely used and poorly packed by the inheriting granddaughter. Working perfectly. It's sad this is my first Audiogon listing, but an inexpensive alternative for garage o... | |
