Two bass guitars, how the hell does that work?! Guess soulseek will hold the answer ...

It should have been very easy to figure out this wasn't me.


I met him once, and that was enough. He has very limited tastes and knowledge. Seriously, any list that includes Dave Brubeck, Ken Vandermark & Chick Corea and several others, but doesn't even mention Louis Armstrong, Charlie Parker, Jelly Roll Morton, Count Basie, Lester Young, Billie Holiday, etc....and barely even mentions Duke Ellington is a waste of time looking at. Apparently, the 20's through 40's was a waste land....especially the 20's which never happened.

Excuse me while I go laugh up a lung.

What I find really funny is Armstrong and Parker and all the others not mentioned are mentioned as Masters of Jazz, but apparently masters who never recorded anything worthy of making his list.


Glenn Miller, Dave Brubeck, Chuck Mangione, David Sandborn are Masters of Jazz? What no Kenny G?


Time to laugh up the other lung.






Outside of a certain period of time, he knows very little. Even in that time period it's lacking.




His Best of the Decade for the 70's through the 90's is pretty sad.



Here is my 90s list to compare.

P.S. I don't think much of his poetry or scientific work.

so you've actually met this guy? I demand the story!

I couldn't help but look at Woody Allen's celebrity playlist when it caught my eye on iTunes. Put a smile on my face that they actually put out celebrity playlists that have stuff like this, plenty of 20's music.

I still think it's a cool site even if it's flawed. I haven't analyzed his lists that much but he does include a lot of cool bands and musicians like Ayler and Cop Shoot Cop. BTW, I saw them back around '95 or so.


That's been bookmarked man, damn.

One is a high end bass the the other is low end. Room 429 is a good song to get a grasp of their sound d/l that if you can.

Edit: or get "Cut to the chase" that is one great song. Sorry I am listening to "Ask questions later" for the first time in years, this thread has inspired me, right now I am being blown away!!

Bastard! they are one of the few 90's bands that I was really into that I never saw, I don't think they ever toured Australia. What were they like live??

For someone who is so intelligient, his website is simple enough...not in a good way either...

Straight ahead no frills rockin'. Rock solid. I was going ballistic the whole show.

"As a computer consultant, he pioneered Internet applications, Artificial Intelligence and object-orientated design."



"He pioneered Internet-based journalism. In 1985 he created his first e-zine, distributed by e-mail over the Internet. Between 1986 and 1990 he created an online database, downloadable via ftp."



Try doing a search on the bolded part, and see what you find.
