Yes sir you betcha. So far driest & warmest May-June on record I believe. Still running 10-15 above normal, no rain in sight. Supposed to cool off to the low 80s by week's end. If I wanted this weather I'd move back over by Laura, or down your way.

That is a funky lamp Captain. I like it!

CB I was walking thru the Via (thrift store) when I looked up high on a shelf that was about a foot over my head. There it was the absolute coolest lamp I'd ever seen

$8 later and I was on my way home with it. Now mind you it will never see the light of day upstairs but that's OK. I like it down in the black hole with me.

Have you guys checked out the Jazz Icon series. You might be able to find some of them in your local library.

I borrowed them from the library in the past and they were excellent. I was also able to find dvd's of Ralph Gleason's "Jazz Casual" among others.

If you use a software like DVD Audio Extractor, you can rip the music files off the dvd.

Art Pepper
Gettin' Together

A new addition and I'm really liking it. I still need to pick up "Meets the Rhythm Section" with Miles Davis, as it's supposed to be even better.

This is another jazz themed album JB did. It's quite interesting and I think very good.

I've got that one, and my prize possession is this one:

8 lps of amazing live recordings--not flawless by any means, but great pressings, and very simple (and effective) mic'ing and mixing.

Here's Fremer's review of the set...
