Doing okay, thanks. Thanks for the tip on the fall shows possibility, I will keep a lookout. Haven't heard or seen any buzz locally about the new disc.

RE: your earlier query Pearl Jam, I am not a big fan (saw them in Pdx in 2000 with my nephew) but have taken some of his recommendations and my favorite is "Live at Benroya Hall", 2 discs of more or less acoustic versions of their work.

good listenin'
Jeff A

Cheers Jeff - another one added to my list! It has some very good reviews as well.

Doug,

How is the new Tharaud's Satie?
I do have one disc of Satie played by Jean-Yves Thibaudet who also recorder the complete piano works on five discs.

Regards,

All nine box sets in this series are very nice, I just wish they would have consistently used the metal spines on all sets.

At the moment I seem to be using Spotify Premium and trawling through the pages of this thread to find new music to listen to . In the past , the 30 second iTunes previews were not enough to get a decent idea .
This album is a case in point , bypassed it before but with the full version on Spotify I really enjoy it and will buy the CD . ( thanks Jeff and Mark ) .

Hi Ed - another convert to the delights of Laura Veirs.

Have you tried her other albums out as well?

Me too! They all look tempting but I think I'll go for the Cellar Door set next, as it's another period of Miles' career that I know relatively little about. The second great quintet box would also be good, but I think I already own most of its contents on individual CDs, so it would have to be cheap.
