  1. So after 20 years you'd better buy a new pair 😪
  2. Peter Gabriel - i/o Available everywhere Double CD, 12 tunes (the same in both discs) by different mixers. Just finished the first one, "the bright". Not bad, but IMHO more for hard core fans. Taking a break before playing the second.
  3. Happy Bday, young lady! And congratulations, Brent. Awesome job.
  4. Happy Birthday!!!
  5. Happy Birthday!!!
  6. Happy Birthday, Mikey!!!
  7. Happy Birthday!!!
  8. New toys by Sony. Kind of impressive that global shutter thing.
  9. Yep, all rumours point towards a 32" iMac Pro which shouldn't be out anytime soon. They want the iMac to be their all in one entry level computer for home use. Probably I don't need more than that, but a 27" display is something that I'd like.
  10. Ugly, demodé, too from the ugly part of the 70's. Definitely an acquired taste.
  11. I was wishing a 27" display iMac. It didn't happen
  12. If you're still in that vein, maybe this is right for you I enjoyed it a lot yesterday.
  13. Happy Birthday, Marc!!!
  14. Happy birthday, Dusty!!! Have a great one.
  15. It's a 5 disc compilation that "only" lasts 1h 24min. It includes many tracks that aren't very popular, I wouldn't say they're bebop standards, but showcases extremely well the evolution from swing into bop, and features many jazz stars like Fats Navarro, JJ Johnson, Stan Getz, Milt Jackson and Dexter Gordon among many others. Very fun. It's available on Qobuz
  16. Just finished 3rd season of Only Murders in the Building Pretty entertaining.
  17. I'm in complete agreement to your rant. Usually there are reasons why the labels didn't include those tracks in the original release. This is getting so absurd that I don't care for new "ultradeluxeanniversarynewfoundgems" anymore. Just an excuse to cash from the devotees.
  18. More Samara Joy, just in case you don't remember she's an incredible singer There are people who think that Emmet's Place concerts are the most relevant jazz events happening nowadays. If you check all the artists to visit his apartment, I kind of concur.
  19. Stay safe, Tyler. Troublesome times and place.
  20. Happy birthday, Wayne
  21. Happy belated birthday, Jim
  22. I think this video could interest the early 15 adopters
  23. When I had a Windows PC I used to play with the F1 official game. By the days Schumacher used to win, before Alonso's titles. Suzuka was one of my favourite circuits, all those turns, so difficult to memorize and drive right. A lot of fun. Hopefully this is a nice race, on FP2 Naranjito didn't seem that superior, though not as behind as in Singapore.

    I've just learned that Apple bought the classical music label BIS. Ted Gioia "The honest broker" has what IMHO is a very strong point about it here. About three years ago I started to notice a growth of shady editions of XXth century artists at other streaming platforms, and his view would explain that. These days everything is business, from education to health, having arts in between. I don't think any society can survive that while having everybody well attended and satisfied.
  25. The only race that I couldn't watch ended with Carlos winning and Naranjito (little orange boy) out of the podium.
