Jazz is amazing...it is so full of a WIDE variety of musics..such as Insect Trust...that it always blows my mind. Last week I officially took off my Prog Rock blinders and now am exploring JAZZ...which is too cool beyond words I can write here. Wow.

Hell, yeah, that, too! I think of Ward Marston, whose work remastering old vocal recitals is amazing. And the folks at Berkeley who have managed to digitize unique and extremely fragile recordings (on wax, etc.) without injuring the originals.

Nice touch, Sem, the "I hear..." part.

I think it would be super-cool to watch an echo technician work....tools of the trade and experience at play. wow...very unusual...right now I am trying to help people invent new stuff and bring it to market...this is good music for that....I REALLY need to get a turntable to rescue old Jazz records for my collection...

@Michael98145: K2 (fake pot) is about cashing in on the desire people have for legal weed in places it’s not legal. But K2 is not weed, smells different and the high is different. When was the last time you heard of 30+ people hospitalized for smoking weed? They just just legalize pot already. It would solve so many problems.

Let the library jokes commence. I'll start with an adaptation from Steven Wright: "“I went to a library and asked the librarian, 'Where’s the self-help section?' She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.”

A patron asked the librarian why Tales of Robin Hood had been withdrawn from the collection. The librarian replied, "Too much Saxon violence."

The Robin Joke reminds me of a real-life story from a public library where I worked long ago, when Madonna's scandalous book of photographs was published. To collect or not? Meanwhile, browse the adult fiction shelves, where you'll find Philip Roth's marvelously filthy "Sabbath's Theater," about which nobody makes a peep!

You can say that again, Librarian.

C'mon, Neil. She has to have told you one or two about non-filing indicators!
