Yeah, that's a really good collection of Fats.

Nice article about famed producer (and Greg's dad) George Avakian in the Wall Street Journal. Also picked up in this month's Riverwalk Jazz newsletter. Jazz Producer to the Greats George Avakian probably has done more to influence the way jazz has been heard over the past 70 years than anyone else a...

How is an LP more "real" than a CD? More "real" than MP3's I could maybe understand, but a record is no less physical than a compact disc.

The soundtrack is really quite good.

This probably has the lyrics on it.

You'll get that message if the audio file or its directory is moved or deleted. Either click yes and find it manually, or if it's happening a lot just clear the library and redefine the watched folder.

I'd like to know how much real Swing is being used nation-wide. ps - How much real Swing does your sce...

That set is awesome and I highly recommend it. I bought it at a record show from the dude that wrote the liner notes.

I don't know how I missed this the first time around but I just found it as an iPhone application - with the small sample of tests I've done it's pretty good, even from competition clips on YouTube through crappy laptop speakers. Just hold your iPhone up to the speakers and in 5 seconds you've got a...

Or, understand your own tastes and preferences and don't continually try to force them on everyone else. Either way.

I've heard Danke Shoen on more than one occasion.
