Happy Birthday Knuckles! Now I know why you posted again recently, you attention whore! Cheers!

So far today: Music from Oh Brother Where Art Thou? Ricki Lee Jones Ryan Adams -- Heartbreaker

Mother says knock you arrrrt! Good stuff duggeh.

My brother, whose 60th birthday party was tonight, and sister were at the Last Waltz at Winterland and just brought that up tonight. That must have been a pretty cool event to be present for. Both of my sisters were at the infamous Altamont concert with the Stones (telling my parents they were at a quilting bee). They left before the Stones played because it was such chaos. Probably a good thing.

Aaron has clearly gotten to you.

I keep telling you Denver is the old one!

The subscriptions keep rolling in. . . Music Matters Blue Note 45 RPMs: Analogue Productions Impulse! 45 RPMs: ORG Impulse! 45 RPMs:

Sounds fun, Mike. Is that keyboard player dressed as a cocktail olive?

Now, see, that's damn funny.

That is only the box. The original artwork on a gatefold is inside!

Well I was being a bit facetious, but I thought you said your were listening out of the iPhone.

Fit issue! Bass should be great and plentiful.

John Coltrane -- Giant Steps Atlantic Studios Master Series 45 RPM Box All I can say is "Hell yeah!" I should have listened to this record a lot sooner given that I bought it a couple months ago. Good stuff.

Damn, 909, glad it didn't look like that while I was driving back over the Bay Bridge last night! Good to see you posting Knuckles, and a very nice shot that is now my desktop background. Happy new year.

x4! Thanks for running the HC exchange, Steve. I started to note that Paul Motian was most famous for being in Bill Evans' trio and that he played with lots of greats, and then I got distracted on Wikipedia and cut and pasted a few things, including his work with Charlie Haden (not one of my faves but great in his own way). I have and like a fair number of the recent recordings he has done, and I highlighted those because I think they are a nice start. Also well recorded, so that is nice. I should check out more of his early stuff as a leader. Anyway, happy listening.

You'll have to wait awhile for a response.

Bill Frissell with Dave Holland and Elvin Jones

Marty Ehrlich -- New on the Rail

Fred Anderson -- Staying In The Game

I have a lot of music, and a fair portion of what I post is my own. I do listen to Rhapsody a lot at work, though, and that allows me access to lots of other stuff. So don't be too envious.

Very different from those but really good. I think you'll like it. Plus, mono records are fun!
