I was wondering how to convert files in case I need mp3 in the future, and found this site: Convert Audio File Formats in iTunes note that you lose quality when doing this (i.e., it won't be as good as re-ripping the file from an audio cd) unless your original format was lossless (e.g., wav, alac -...

this is getting off-topic, i think, but i'd love to see that clip. is it digital?

mosaic does plenty of earlier stuff, as you can see on their website . bix, bunny berigan, the oop sidney bechet set someone was drooling over earlier, etc. incidentally, i've seen quite a few accusations in those threads (and in amazon reviews) of proper, definitive, and even jsp copying mosaic set...

before all the yanks start looking: not on the u.s. itunes store, sadly.

Not as bad as Marilyn Monroe swing

though i'm willing to accept that as bad, too, you likely meant marilyn manson.

there's this old thread on losless ripping, too.

i use itunes and rip to alac (apple losless). it's smaller than wav and handles meta data more gracefully. i would pick mp3 over aac, because of universal support. i did not pick flac, because i want to be able to play the files on my ipod without hassle (and i already had a lot of meta data in itun...

no, i got the mp3, but i don't recognise the tune. try humming it to trevor or manu next time you see them -- did you hear them play it?

they're having a sale this month: 10% off 12 selected sets including the capitol jazz, bix/trum/tea, prima/manone, venuti/lang, and bunny berigan.

the capitol set is now a measly $172!

sounds like...cootie williams.

i'm with rayned, but barring the use of deloreans and 1.21 gigawatts of energy, i'd love to see mosaic or jsp sets of: chick webb complete jimmie lunceford complete lucky millinder/mills blue rhythm band complete louis armstrong and his all-stars fifties concerts and radio transcripts and i'd be ser...

Why does the CD say "savoy master recordings" when they are on Crown? the cd has an lp-sized (all 12 tracks appeared on a 1985 lp before) reproduction of an essay by phil schaap, which explains crown went under, varsity got most of their releases, and varsity was bought by savoy. cleverly...

sound's not great, and perhaps what one might call a little muffled on some tracks. there's persistent hiss on all of them. i didn't hear a hum, but i listened to it over kind of a crappy stereo without headphones just now. if i thought any of the tracks were great lindy tunes, i'd spin 'em. i can t...

it's a joke, obviously. thinkgeek is a silly site.

edit: don't believe me? try adding it to your cart.

i spent last weekend in new york, buying cd's and, sadly, not making it to the clark terry show. i used the former to soothe the pain of the latter. at academy: duke ellington('s spacemen), "the cosmic scene" : total craziness. duke cashing in on the space race craze, with clark terry cash...
