    Hey Bobsticks - looks like some great tuneage at Chez Sticks. I've been meaning to pick up that Wayne Shorter album you mentioned a couple of posts back.

    Things picked up a little later in the day for me. I changed gears from the laid back stuff and put on Aha Shake Heartbreak - Kings of Leon. It's a good straight-ahead rock album that keeps makin' its way back to the 'table.

    Happy Labor Day....... WHERE ARE MY TUBES, NEW CARTRIDGE, RECORDS, BRASS CONES, & AND OTHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm glad most of members here have a day-off. Who me? I have to go to work tonight for $7.50/hr, no time and a half either. That's right, 7 FIFTY!!!!!!!!!! I've been told that I'm getting a raise, perhaps EIGHT bucks an hour? Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!! This is why I go to college.
    I apologize for talking about money.

    Before I make my way to a voluntary slavery, will be spinning some tunes.

    Right now,
    MIles Davis - On the Corner. I havent enjoyed this album like this in a long while.

    Rachmaninov Piano Concerto no. 2
    Tchaikovsky Piano Concerto no. 1
    Nina Simone, maybe Pastel Blue.
    wil be spun later.

    NS:Yo Yo Ma~The Soul of the Tango

    This certainly is less clinical than his Rach or Dvorak readings and yet less avantgarde (read inaccessable) than The Silk Road offerings. A great way to end a lovely holiday...

    Quincy JOnes - Birth of a Band.
    http://www.liberatedrecords.com/Quin...0-%20Front.jpg

    First thing I noticed about this record is that it sounds like it's been digitally remastered. It just doesnt quite have that analog goodness. Back of the cover doesnt say anything about digital remastering process. All the recordings are made in late 50's and LP was issued in '84. I thought Digital Mastering process was a big deal in 80s, so dont understand why it does state that. But It does have a name of reissue engineer.
    Sounds like I'm playing thru a valve CD player.

    Whatever the case, I enjoy Big Band music once in a blue moon.

    Hang in there. My first job was at a grocery store. I was able to leave then get hired back on a couple of times as needed while going to college. My last stint was my favorite job even though it didn't pay squat. I worked the night stock crew. Not too many grocery stores were open 24hrs back then. We came in when the store closed - no pesky customers - and were locked in 'til morning. Mop floors, work backstock, front aisles then checker tournaments and general BS the rest of the night. Even on truck delivery nights we still had at least 3hrs to goof off. Now that my current profession follows me wherever I go and is always on my mind, I look back fondly on those days.

    Ah the golden days. I remember them with great fondness. And as Deano said hang in there. I lost everything twice in my life and had to start over again. You are on the right tracks.
    Anyway what is spinning........right now:

    "The Jayhawks - Tomorrow the Green Grass".

    Started with Paul Butterfield's Better Days - Live at Winterland

    Now it's the Siegel-Schwall reunion CD.

    Next in line is "Looks Like Trouble" by the Cooler Kings. I doubt many people outside of Indianapolis has even heard of this now defunct blues band. Normally I don't get too excited about amateur blues groups but this one has the goods. Just noticed their CD is going for $32 used on Amazon. The secondary CD market is starting to look like the LP market... out of print ups the price. Anyway, Gordon Bonham is the one new unknown blues guitarist that I find really exciting these days.

    Rush - Grace Under Pressure Live from the Replay X3 DVD set

    The live CD was somewhat redundant because it basically retreads the audio track from one of the three concert DVDs included with this set. But, it allowed me to do a MP3 rip for my computer at work. Plus, the version I got at Best Buy includes four bonus tracks lifted from the Show of Hands DVD.

    Geez, has it already been 22 years since this tour?! Amazing to see their development over the years, and that they're still going, purportedly as an even better live act nowadays. I haven't really followed Rush since Presto came out, but heard a lot of good things about their Live In Rio and R30 sets. The Replay X3 set is interesting because it follows the band's progression over three different tours. I first saw them on the Grace Under Pressure tour, and through the Power Windows and Hold Your Fire tours, I thought they got better each time. The CD demonstrates that they still had a slightly rough edge on that tour, but this performance seems a little more inspired than the night I saw them on that same tour.

    Thanx Bernd
    I saw your post then it made me pause. I forgot I purchased that record, but something didnt look right. My copy has red background instead of your green cover. Speaking of that album, I'll be spinning Mondo Cane #2, Kai Winding. I originally purchased it just for the artwork on the back cover. The painting is called "Sacrificial Lamb" It is fairly graphic and draws me in.

    Right now, I'm spinning Idle Moment by Grant Green to break-in my new Denon DL-110. I always pull this album out when I feel uninspired, also my great reference LP since I know the material really well.

    Hi dave,

    A little bit mellow. Best to describe it would be where as "Roll" rocked, "Koala Motel" rolls. A nice contrast to each other.
    No spinning anything right now.
