    I bought the max, mostly for my kids use.
  4. My interpretation is: The only people who get beyond a certain level of wealth because wealth is what matters to them. Once you hit a level where you can't easily spend the money you've acquired, continuing to acquire seems to suggest that the acquisition is the goal.
  5. Oh, I think the animosity toward jay isn't recent. Comedians turn on their own a lot. As ot the public animosity, that's just transferred from the comics, I'd bet.

    you don't have to pay when you book the room, you just guarantee it with a card. No charges are placed.
  7. Eddie Condon - The Best of Eddie Condon This budget two-LP set (which inexcusably has no liner notes nor even a personnel listing) contains about one hour of music, 20 three-minute selections from Eddie Condon's period with the Decca label. Although the music is not necessarily the best, there are many fine solos and plenty of freewheeling ensembles. The all-star groups include such classic players as trumpeters Bobby Hackett, Billy Butterfield, Max Kaminsky, Wild Bill Davison and Johnny Windhurst, trombonists Jack Teagarden, Cutty Cutshall (who takes a rare vocal on "Everybody Loves My Baby"') and Brad Gowans, clarinetists Pee Wee Russell, Peanuts Hucko, Joe Dixon, Edmond Hall and Tony Parenti, Bud Freeman on tenor, baritonist Ernie Caceres, pianists Gene Schroeder, Ralph Sutton and James P. Johnson, bassists Bob Haggart and Jack Lesberg and drummers George Wettling, Buzzy Drootin and Dave Tough; Bing Crosby even drops by to sing "After You've Gone."

  24. And maybe you decide what you like based on what you read and not what you hear? Or arbitrarily decide. Or have new gear syndrome. Maybe you should stop writing about minute details heard or not, and just enjoy the music, and not worry about the gear so much.
