Alan Dawson and his star pupil Tony Williams. Now, you're tugging on heart strings, as I'm sure you know, Jason. Damn. http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-DcZ5rOwOU88/T1QrSSl5HvI/AAAAAAAAB5k/coq8UJMs1aE/s400/1.jpg http://s3.amazonaws.com/drumlessonscom/00-drummers/tony-williams-thumb.jpg

If so, I love that stuff.

Absolutely, jaka!

I love her work, and was proud to be a part of her latest effort with Dawn Upshaw, Winter Morning Walks on ArtistShare. Wow!

Lenny, I didn't know that you had been in our area. Ahhhhh, yes ... Marathon Oil.

Does this look familiar, Lenny?

I never would have thought of that combination, but it sounds intriguing, Noj. I love blackberries in just about any form!

My wife & I saw this cool little cat each time we visited one of our favorite beaches on Kaua'i last December. I managed to capture this shot when he was sitting on a lava rock wall. I made a sound to grab his/her attention, after pre-focusing. I think it's a female. http://farm9.staticflickr.co...

Turnagain Arm begins about :15mins. south of Anchorage, and is part of Cook Inlet, which is part of the Pacific Ocean. It's called Turnagain Arm because when Capt. James Cook sailed into Cook Inlet, then that arm of the inlet, he was forced to "turn again". He was looking for the Northwest...

I was lost and now I am found. Nice to see some familiar people.

Welcome, Patricia! Nice to see you. I was just about to send you a PM on Facebook. You beat me to it.

Very nice shot, Brooks! The stark contrast of colors and shadow-play really work.

Yo, ᑕᐧᔐᔫᓂᑯᒑᔥ.

How about choosing another User Name so that we can actually respond to something other than one using Canadian Unicode?

Thanks.

Welcome, Brooks! Glad to see you here. Please add some commentary or create a new thread or two.

it seems like i'm always "indebted" to Ron for one thing or another. well, this is another "biggie". thanks so much, my dear friend. he's the best! Don't be silly. You're not indebted to me for anything . Our special friendship, born from an online jazz forum, is an amazing thin...

Here's a very tasty treat from one of our newest members, guitarist Joe Carter.

Man, the 1st thing I thought about when I saw this thread title was my old pal, Dobie aka Singin Sumo. He loved to talk about pie and soup, and ... Sometimes when we'd talk by phone, Dobie would say "c'mon over and we'll have some soup 'n' pie ... soup 'n' pie, Fadda." I love pie, and this...

Welcome, Joe C. Very nice to see that you've joined us. Please don't be shy.

That is still quite nice. 1998-2003 were vintage years at Jazz Corner: Reynolds, DEEP, Nags, Brooksie, Conan, etc. I hope that it doesn't disappear. It would be nice to save it. Welcome, John. Very nice to see you here. Yeah, the archive you're talking about is one that Lois' techs saved on the cha...

Hi Everybody. Stephane, from quite some time on JazzcornerTalk. Been lost in the wild for a while. Maybe back. Hi Ron! Knew you would pull this off. Looks great! Welcome, Stephane. Great to see you here, my friend. Scott got this site up and running in no time. I kibitzed a lot on the sidelines. We...

I would agree with your sentiments on that group of stellar big bands, Clint. I've heard them all, but only one of them in person, the Mingus Big Band, which is a killer! My good friend Danny Gottlieb used to sub for Mel Lewis in that band, when Mel was sick or had other commitments. In fact, Danny ...

Me too.

You summed up the feelings of many of us, Scott. Thanks.

I also sent Lois a personal note tonight, but via e-mail rather than a PM.

Lois and I go back a long, long way, and I wish her nothing but the best in the future, as well.
