Dude, tonight was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Blake's last dunk, however crappy the dunk was, was an amazing production. Since everything's been done already, the pageantry is almost as important as completing the dunk.

Pedro the Lion - "It's Hard To Find A Friend" test.

It'll depend on what you want. I'd take those 2 MC Chris cds and possibly Head Automatica LP.

Hey man, check out the stuff I'm trying to unload: http://www.deadformat.net/topic.php?id=28409

I read omni as in the latin prefix for 'all' and thought there was an unlimited pressing of some record. I probably shouldn't read that much into things. I can't help it, I love linguistics.

Well, the computer won. Anyone surprised?

This is pretty funny.

No A+B Life? I got that and want to get rid of it! Wish I could help.

It should be noted that petitions are great at getting communities to sponsor a pee-wee football teams or getting a class added into curriculum at the local high school. But to my knowledge, a petition has never got an album pressed to vinyl.

I watched tonight's episode. I knew that computer was going to beat those guys. It's a computer, after all. And it's learned and continues to learn. But I thought it was funny he missed the Final Jeopardy question but only risked like $400. After reading Ken Jennings blog, he seems like a much cooler guy than I imagined. He's damn near a genius, which typically eliminates some social skills. But he's a Mormon also. I'm not saying smart people or Mormons are socially inept, but from my experience, people who are ridiculously smart cannot relate to average people. And Mormons are really worried about your soul, so they typically talk about that. Though, Mormons are usually the nicest people to talk to about anything else.

Dr. John and the Original Meters! No joke, that would be really cool to see.

People who pay to sell on Amazon (I forget what it's called) can create listings. It's likely someone got one or will get a 7" and just created the listing. If a picture shows up in a week, then they were just creating the listing.

My bad. This long sentence "And I know I'll be called a philistine by a lot of people but I really think Miles' latter-day material, the fusion/progressive stuff like "...Jack Johnson..." and Bitches Brew (not so much "You're Under Arrest et. al) is great. ...led me to believe you liked it over. Clearly, you said 'great' not better. So, my apologies. You own in original Blue Note stuff? I only own like one thing (a Donald Byrd record) and it's not a 50's or 60's album so no real vale.

They made, what, three albums? It wouldn't take any amount of time or effort to figure out what album that is a test of.

Would be nice but highly unlikely. Unless it could make Columbia some money. That's the only way they'll do anything.

You aren't speaking heresy, regardless of your misguided appreciation for the fusion stuff over his bebop and hard bop records. So there you go I'm joking. Really, I like the experimentation that brought about Bitches Brew. I agree, he was bored but I think the heroin addiction helped. But I'll never trade those records from 56-59. You mention Rollins...I came across a OJC repress of "Sound of Sonny" a couple of years ago and I was blown away. I think he's my favorite saxophonist now, even over Coltrane. I have been trying to digest as much of his stuff as possible. Sax wise, Coleman Hawkins is a favorite too. So, yes, Cookin' was a great investment, even though I got another copy of Arcade Fire.

St. Augustine is the oldest city in the USA. But, they've probably told you that 800 times now once you cross county lines.

Hey, I want a copy of this. Check out my things I'm trying to get rid of and we'll go from there: http://www.deadformat.net/topic.php?id=28409

What's The Starting Line?

I've heard Jade Tree is notorious for being dicky when it comes to setting stipulations for things like these. But yeah, just came by to say that I think this will be something that should happen but probably won't for a while. Truth be told, I have everything on vinyl, I just need the Made In Mexico stuff. "The Only Reason I Feel Secure" always manages to escape me on eBay because people will pay over $100 for it. That MIM stuff will probably never see a repress.

+1 for some MDQ. Sort of hilarious story: I bought the newest Arcade Fire from a local record store when it came out and paid $26.99. Shop Radio Cast had it for something nuts like 16.99 at one point, so I picked it up there and planned on taking the other copy back. Then my store got in "Cookin" by Miles Davis Quintet. I knew that's what I was going to trade it for. I thought it was a later issue but it's not. It has the 446 W. 50th Street label, which indicates it's a second or third pressing. The cover is taped together, and the record isn't mint, but in very good condition. They had it for $30. So I traded in Arcade Fire and spent a couple bucks. When I tested it at the store, it was great. I just listened to this for the first time tonight and woah, it's phenomenal. A new favorite of mine. I like "Workin" a lot but this may top it. So, all in all, I traded Arcade Fire's 2010 release for a release from 1957. I think I made the right call, haha. A similar one just ended on eBay a few days ago. I'm not saying it would go for this much because of the wear but I got a good deal: http://cgi.ebay.com/MILES-DAVIS-w-JOHN-C....item1e 6146e3fc

Best fucking show from 2002-2005. The first four seasons are hilarious. It's a great series, minus the poor, misguided attempt to make the last season focus on the interns.

I loved the Stax Museum. I also really like Sun Studios. It's definitely worth the money to go through a tour there. Hi-Tone Cafe is a cool place to see a show. Plus it's a bar that has good food (hence the 'cafe'). A rarity these days.

Wish I could help. That Beatles' covers EP they did was terrible.
